[Solved] Sony KDL-52EX700 - Audio but No Video

[npuser]

Hello all,
I run into a small issue with a Sony KDL-52EX700 TV and some online streams. I have some veetle streams where all i get is an audio but no video. The same stream works perfectly fine in sony bluray. I think it is my sony 2010 profile but i can't seemed to figure this one out. It is driving me crazy. Here is ffplay and ffmpeg output.

One random stream which was active one i ran this ffmpeg.

thanks

I have some veetle streams where all i get is an audio but no video.

probably something with the AVC/h264 codec profile.

Could you catch the stream and provide information with MediaInfo tools result ?

[npuser]

i am researching in the forum for a "howto" generate transcoded file to run mediainfo on. I will post the result soon i can generate one. In the mean time, here is what vlc mediainfo report when i use vlc to play the steam.

thanks for look in into this.

Illico - i used following string to copy the stream. Hope this helps.

  Code:

ffmpeg.exe -fflags +genpts -i "http://216.221.144.236/flv/5019b34646dde" -y -copyts -c:v copy -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -c:a copy -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -sn -f mpegts C:\temp\serviio\transcoding-temp-1000000000100003-sony2010-ORIGINAL.stf

Thanks,

So the AVC/h264 profile level 5.0 (>4.1) is not supported by sony device, but serviio should detect this and transcode the video to mpeg2video.

Zip, why profile level is not detected for this online source ?

[zip]

I assume that there is a (Online) matcher that gets picked before the level matcher, therefore it will only remux.

Here is my profile. I added online transcoding section to sony 2010 which is a copy of .6.2 generic profile online transcoding section as version 1 the sony 2012 online transcoding did not work for me as per a discussion in beta forum. Thanks for looking into this.

I think i got it now. Few of the streams i tried worked with following sony 2010 online transcoding mod.

THank you for the pointer and clues.
