Unable to view pictures on Kodi

Hi,

I've setup Serviio 1.5.2 and it works fine on my DLNA TV, except for wav and AAC files, but i understand these are not currently supported. However on my other TV I use a KODI via upnp which works for audio (excluding wav / AAC) and videos, but for some reason it won't display images full screen. I can see a thumbnail for the image but when i try and display full screen, I just get a blank (black) screen. I've tried jpg's and png of different sizes with the same results. I've looked for a solution to this issue and to see if I need to setup a transcoding profile but have drawn a blank.

Any help would best most welcome.

What transcoding profile are you using?

Thanks for your reply,

So on the TV (which works fine) I'm using "Sony Bravia (2010)" profile.

The other TV has a KODI media server attached to it which is using "Generic DLNA profile". My Searching indicated that this is the correct profile, but I also believe that this profile doesn't support trans-coding. To be honest I was under the impression that trans-coding was only for video?

I've looked through the profile list, there does not appear to be a profile for XBMC or KODI. I did try direct tv and both the xbox profiles but again I was only able to see the thumbnail and the screen went black when I selected an image to go full screen.
