KDL-40EX521: transcoding of avi with mpeg4 is needed
Hello.
I own Sony Bravia KDL-40EX521 TV. It has PKG4.021EUA-0104 firmware version.
This TV is detected as sony2011 by Serviio.
I found that Serviio expects that the TV can play avi files with MPEG4 itself, but actually TV fails complaining that it does not support such stream.
The example ffmpeg's output:
I've patched profiles.xml to make Serviio force transcoding:
It actually works and TV now plays such videos.
I'm not sure if my transcoding configuration is efficient and provides the best quality.
Can you please advice if the above changes to profiles.xml can be optimized?
Also is it possible to include transcoding of such avis in the Serviio?
