My LG TV can't play .flv files so i need help how to enable transcoding for that file. I'm no pro user so go easy please =)

Posted: **Sun Sep 23, 2012 6:07 pm**

This is a local or online flv streaming ?

Posted: **Sun Sep 23, 2012 7:02 pm**

Local files from my HD.

You can edit LG profile (profile.xml) like this:
But it seems that Transcoding doesn't work with LG TV...

Code:: <Profile id="8" name="LG TV / player" extendsProfileId="1"> <Detection> <HttpHeaders> <friendlyName.dlna.org>LG.*</friendlyName.dlna.org> </HttpHeaders> </Detection> <MediaFormatProfiles> <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile> </MediaFormatProfiles> <SubtitlesMimeType>text/srt</SubtitlesMimeType>  <Transcoding> <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="mp3"> <Matches container="matroska" aCodec="ac3" /> </Video> <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" > <Matches container="avi" vCodec="msmpeg4"/> <Matches container="flv" /> </Video> </Transcoding> </Profile>

Thanks! that worked just fine. :lol:

I have another file format that the LG don't support (.wmv) so i tried to add that also but Seriio service kept refusing to start so i had to figure out why... some sort of crash log i've read about in the forum. Yep, after some more searching i found that you need to name it .asf. Now Serviio starts up again, and i can transcode .wmv files also =)

It looks like this now if anyone else needs it:

Code:: <Profile id="8" name="LG TV / player" extendsProfileId="1"> <Detection> <HttpHeaders> <friendlyName.dlna.org>LG.*</friendlyName.dlna.org> </HttpHeaders> </Detection> <MediaFormatProfiles> <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile> </MediaFormatProfiles> <SubtitlesMimeType>text/srt</SubtitlesMimeType>  <Transcoding> <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="mp3"> <Matches container="matroska" aCodec="ac3" /> </Video> <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" > <Matches container="avi" vCodec="msmpeg4"/> <Matches container="flv" /> <Matches container="asf" /> </Video> </Transcoding> </Profile>

Great!

For information, could you provide protocolInfo result of your device ? http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=device_sf
Could you also provide some elements like <modelNumber>,<friendlyname>,etc from device description xml with the upnp tools?

Thanks,
That is the same than "LG Smart TVs " : http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=dev ... at_support
According to information, your TV should support WMV in native format (no need to transcode)
http-get:*:video/x-ms-wmv:*,
http-get:*:video/x-ms-asf:*,
Do you have another information about format supported (usermanual) ?
Could you provide information about your wmv file ? (ffmpeg -i <file>)

Posted: **Mon Sep 24, 2012 2:39 pm**

Yeah, you are right'ish. I had some other wmv files that actually worked directly. But the one i tried first do not work. So there might be some wierd stuff going on with that file.

Here is the results from that file: (fl_intro.wmv taken from Freelancer game)

Seems to be a standard asf/wmv2/wmav2, don't know what is the problem.
Could you provide MediaInfo tool result (in text format) ?

Does the other wmv files are similar asf/wmv2/wmav2 format?

Btw, <Matches container="flv" /> should be added for the next serviio release.

Posted: **Mon Sep 24, 2012 9:14 pm**

I had another wmv file that hates my TV =)

Posted: **Tue Sep 25, 2012 7:21 am**

So these two files are asf/wmv2/wmav2 and are not supported by your TV model.

What are the format of others wmv files that are supported by your TV?

Posted: **Tue Sep 25, 2012 9:36 am**

These 2 worked directly:

These files are asf/vc1/wma2 supported in native format, so we can edit the profile like this :
- asf/vc1/wma2 will be delivered in native format
- asf/wmv2/* will be transcoded

Great! Thanks for all the help.

Posted: **Tue Sep 25, 2012 7:00 pm**

Zip, do you think that could be added to the next realease ?
<Matches container="flv" />
<Matches container="asf" vCodec="wmv2"/>

It worked okay when i tried those changes so i guess so =)

...

I have a video file that i downloaded from youtube and it's called *.webm. Is there a way for Serviio to transcode that video format?

Rename it to .mkv and try then.

Posted: **Mon Oct 01, 2012 7:08 am**

I get "file is invalid" when doing that.

I noticed some .mkv movies fails with "unsupported audio" error.
