[SOLVED] Bravia EX520 No sound

Hi ppl,

I'm unable to get sound on a few MKV files, the video plays ok. It seems to be a problem with AAC. I've tried the 2010 and 2011 profiles to no avail. Here is the MediaInfo of a file that does not output sound: -

Appreciate the help...

HE-AAC is not supported by Sony Bravia device, need to be transcoded but serviio does not distinguish ACC to HE-AAC.
A ticket exist : https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... c-aac_latm

Could you let me know of a profile that transcodes all AAC, that I can use along with the current one??

Thanks

I've tried adding the following, but still am not getting sound on the 2011 profile: -

<Profile id="sony2011" name="Sony Bravia TV (2011)" extendsProfileId="sony2012">

Do you restart serviio service after modification?
Check on detailed serviio log file that audio will be transcoded.

Try this:

  Code:

   <Profile id="sony2011" name="Sony Bravia TV (2011)" extendsProfileId="sony2012">
      <!-- 2011 models
         - Still images: JPEG
         - Music: MP3, linear PCM, WMA
         - Video: AVCHD, MPEG2, MPEG1, MP4 (AVC), MP4 (MPEG4), DivX, WMV -->
      <Detection>
         <UPnPSearch>
            <FriendlyName>BRAVIA KDL-\d{2}([A-Z]X\d2\d|CX400).*</FriendlyName>
         </UPnPSearch>
      </Detection>
      <Transcoding>
         <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384">
            <Matches container="matroska" aCodec="aac"/>
         </Video>     
         <!-- Transcode audio MP4 -->
         <Audio targetContainer="lpcm" forceInheritance="true">
            <!-- To allow "pause" then "resume" functions and album art for TVs that support it - transcode to mp3 instead -->
            <Matches container="mp4" />
         </Audio>         
      </Transcoding>
   </Profile>


Thx, that worked perfectly...
