Serviio

I have been using Serviio (v1.2.1) on my Win7-64 PC for some time and I think it’s a very good piece of software. I have three clients, a Samsung Smart TV, a WD TV live and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 device. They all work well with Serviio using different profiles. I can see movies, pictures and listen to music and I can also see streaming video from an on-line source like SVT Play.

I have now replaced my old satellite receiver with a new one called Tiviar Alpha +, which is a brand new device (how clever was that?). It has a DLNA client and trying different profiles I can see movies and listen to music from my PC using Serviio. I can also see streaming on-line video from SVT Play.

But I cannot see any pictures!

I can see the folder “Images” and sub folders and also the picture file names like “1234.jpg” and when I select one file I get information about name, resolution, type (jpg) and date. But I cannot see the picture itself.

I have installed xbmc, Mezzmo and Wild Media Server on another PC and with those servers I can see the pictures.

I have tried different profiles but not all of them.

Attached is a log file which I have tried to make as short as possible.

Can I get some help here please? I really want my new toy to work.

Can anyone help me with this, please?

My device can handle everything from Serviio but pictures. It can, however, read pictures from other DLNA-servers including Windows Media Player.

At the end of the log file there is a "DEBUG [WebServer] I/O error: Connection reset". What happened here? Shouldn't pictures be the easiest thing to handle?

Please?

What size are the images?

I haven't got your device but on all my devices, I can't view pictures that are larger than 4096x4096. What I did is resized all of them to 1080 vertical height (duplicated files and kept the originals as master copies); then I was able to see them.

I believe the image transcode profile capability of serviio needs development to provide the ability to resize while serving.

This happens to both small and large images. I guess there is a software problem in my device but their support will not accept that so I was hoping that someone should be able to give me some indication with the help of the log file.
