profile for philips 32pfl7605h/12

Hi.
First, thanks for the soft. I've tried many dnla servers on my freebsd 8.2 server and serviio is the best with my tv.

My tv is a Philips 32PFL7605H/12, dlna 1.5 certified.

I attached two files:
- the GetProtocolInfo, sink field for my tv
- the dlna.org certification pdf for this tv

In serviio console, the tv have a green dot, the ip and the device name is "NMR" (what does this mean?)

I've tried all the serviio profiles and this is a short resume:
- Generic DLNA profile: only can play mpg and wmv, no avi (xvid/mp3 and many other formats), but fast forward/backward works (nice!!).
- XBox 360: this is the only one to play avi files, but don't work fast forward/backward
- all other profiles: I've not tested deeply, only to confirm that avi can't be played.

Can you help me to make a profile that, at least, can play avi files and have fast forward/backward?

Thanks in advance.

Let's start with this basic profile that has no transcoding and should play AVI's.

  Code:

         <Profile id="14" name="Phillips TV" extendsProfileId="1">      
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>
   </Profile>


FFWD,REV .. can work for some formats and not for others, usually depends on the TV - looks like your TV cannot do that with native AVIs.

Many thanks for the quick response. I'll try to test the profile tomorrow and report the results.

Ok. Philips tv media reproduction are very basic (philips forums are plenty of claims about it).

I modify /usr/local/etc/serviio/profile.xml an restart the service (as root run: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/serviio restart), but the new profile don't appears on the console list. I've deleted the tv on console and rescan with same result.

My system is freebs 8.2 x86 and i use the console on windows 7x64.

Next to your TV in the console, there is a combo box with all the profiles. It should include this new one. Select it.

I found the problem: the console was running in background, i need to close an reopen to see the new profile.

Unfortunately don't work with new profile. I can't play avi, only mpgs with FFW/RWD.

Sugestions?

try this:

  Code:

<Profile id="14" name="Phillips TV" extendsProfileId="1">     
      <ProtocolInfo>simple</ProtocolInfo>
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>
</Profile>

This works.

I can play avi and mpeg... but is lost FFWD/RWD on mpgs.
For the moment is enough, I'll wait a time to see if philips update tv software.

Many thanks.

G'day!
I'm attaching my post to this thread, as I'm certain the problem is the same.
In my case a Philips 37pfl6606 is the device in question. My story is exactly the same as described by kralizeck.
Following your advice I've also added the additional device.
I'm attaching my device spy export:

I'd also be very grateful if there's a possibility to support Philips TVs natively. Thank you very much for your support!!

After some testing I add this to the standard serviio Philips profile (v. 0.6.2):

  Code:

      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/x-matroska" name="">MATROSKA</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_MP_SD_AAC_MULT5</MediaFormatProfile>         
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_MP_SD_MPEG1_L3</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_MP_SD_AC3</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_MP_HD_720p_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_MP_HD_1080i_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_HP_HD_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">AVC_MP4_LPCM</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">MPEG4_P2_MP4_ASP_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">MPEG4_P2_MP4_SP_L6_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">MPEG4_P2_MP4_NDSD</MediaFormatProfile>         
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/h264" name="">FLV</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>

I can play avi, flv, mkv, mp4, mpg and wmv... with working FFWW/RWD function .
I'll try to test more detailed video formats in next days.

[zip]

can you try with 1.0?

can you try with 1.0?

I'll wait until serviio is updated in freebsd ports system. In a previous version I tried to do it myself... and it went very bad.
Sorry.

And this to play wma audio:

  Code:

                        <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="audio/x-ms-wma" name="">WMA_BASE</MediaFormatProfile>
                        <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="audio/x-ms-wma" name="">WMA_FULL</MediaFormatProfile>

In this case the MediaFormatProfiles are not needed as you transcode everything into mpeg2. Wasn't the aim to not transcode if possible?

This looks better, almost no transcoding. You stil transcode ASF so the media format profiles for asf are not needed, or if supported, should not be transcoded.

Also you are transcoding all with DTS to mpeg2, it might be enough to remux the video into mpegts and only transcode the audio to ac3.

In this case the MediaFormatProfiles are not needed as you transcode everything into mpeg2. Wasn't the aim to not transcode if possible?

I don't pay attention to transcoding part, I don't use it. The transcoding is disabled with the console.
