Sony BD Player with no DivX support

Hello, I like this product.
I have a Sony BDVN890W from Canada which supports XVid AVI's but not the DivX format. The player matches the "Sony BD Player / SMP" Profile which I modified to get the avi's to work. (I followed a previous post about disabling the avi media format profile). My question is about the transcoding matching - can you setup serviio so that the xvid avi's are served natively but the divx avi's are transcoded. This is the line that I add/remove and seems to affect both avi types:
<Transcoding>
...
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" maxVBitrate="17000" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="320">
...
<Matches container="avi" vCodec="mpeg4" /> <!-- can I say divx only? -->

Re: Sony BD Player with no DivX support

Just found the solution (adding vFourCC="dx50").
See the referencing issue: https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... vx-5-codec

Thanks, Jamie.

Re: Sony BD Player with no DivX support

I had this similar problem in the past and the advice given to me was to use the AVI FourCC Changer. Simply type in xvid in both text fields and then click apply. It takes less than a second to change and the file will no longer require to be transcoded.

You can get the file here: http://www.inmatrix.com/download/avic100.zip
