Serviio 1.5 - Problem with online streams

Hello:

I use Serviio only to see online streams (.m3u8, Sopcast or AceStream). It has been very useful for me but I only use it for streams.

I was using Serviio 1.4.1.2 until now, with the next configuration for Streams (I had created a profile that WAS NOT BASED on "Generic DLNA profile"):

<OnlineTranscoding>
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="192">
<Matches container="*" />
</Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>


I used this profile and no one based on "Generic DLNA profile" because with profiles based on "Generic DLNA profile", in some stremas, no audio was played on my PANASONIC TX-L42E6EK.

With the profile that I created, I had no problems with audio in any onlie streams.

Well... I have installed Serviio 1.5 yesterday, and I did no changes in configuration. I used the profile I was using for online streams... and my TV can't play no online streams.
I returned to 1.4.1.2 --> all online streams working.
I returned to 1.5 --> no online streams working.

Well... with Serviio 1.5 I can play online streams with "Generic DLNA profile", but in some streams no audio is played.

I tried even in other partition with other Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits and the same results were found:
1.4.1.2 --> all online streams working with "my profile".
1.5 --> no online streams working "my profile". Streams are played with "Generic DLNA profile", but no audio in some streams.

The question is. Why Serviio 1.5 is not compatible (in my case) with:
<OnlineTranscoding>
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="192">
<Matches container="*" />
</Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>

Any alternative?

Kind regards

can you post detailed log of playing the stream with 1.4 and 1.5 ? Will need to compare what is happening there.

Yes.

4 logs are attached in "Detailed logs.rar":
* Serviio 1.4.1.2 playing OK video + audio with "my profile". What I really need.
* Serviio 1.4.1.2 playing OK video + but NO audio wit "Generic DLNA Profile".
* Serviio 1.5 playing NO video + NO audio with "my profile" (Panasonic TV doesn't play the file at all).
* Serviio 1.5 playing OK video + but NO audio with "Generic DLNA Profile".

In all the cases, the same Sopcast Channel (stream: http://192.168.0.2:8902/tv.asf ) was used as sample.

Hi,

so first, there seems to be a difference in the URLs (/tv.asf missing in the 1.5 version), but I'm not sure if that is causing it. Also, can you post your whole profile? There is a difference in the transport mechanism (not using chunked in 1.5), which might be the problem.
