Automatic transcoding

Hi,

I am running Serviio off a windows server into a Samsung series 6 TV. Accessing the DLNA server from the TV works fine; all films pulled from the server play including .mkv films which are are transcoded as expected. However, recently I have started to use Kinsky software as a control point. I have tested it on both a desktop PC and on an Android tablet (the tablet being the objective) and it works as expected, except that films that are pushed to the TV that would normally be transcoded (eg. .mkv) are not being transcoded, only the films that can be directly played by the Samsung TV will play. My questions is this, Is this by design or should the transcoding work in this setup.

Many thanks

Bick

Assign the profile that you use on your TV to the device you use as the control point using the console.

Of course! Completely missed it... (been a long day....)

Thanks Will. That did the trick.... works a treat!

Thanks again
