Aspect Ratio - Source to destination

I have numerous DLNA devices on my network. They include WDTV, Sony BluRay Player, Samsung Blu Ray Player and a Humax 7510T.

Everything works fine except for the HumAX 7510T. The files play, except the aspect ratio is usually incorrect.

I have added a profile to include the following:

  Code:

<Profile id="Humax" name="Humax HDR PVR" extendsProfileId="1">
     <!-- HUMAX 7510T
         - Still images: JPEG
         - Music: MP3, Dolby Digital +
         - Video: MPEG TS, mpeg2video, mpeg-4 AVC, dolby digital + -->
      <Transcoding>
         <!-- Remux audio and video streams - for DivX/Xvid in AVI/Matroska -->
         <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="h264" DAR="16:9">
            <Matches container="matroska" />
         </Video>
      </Transcoding>
   </Profile>

This ensures the Humax can play the files. It can support MPEGTS containers with either MPEG4 AVC or MPEG2 video formats, and supports AAC and MP3 audio.

I have recently solved part of my problem. It requires the DAR option - otherwise video are stretched. This is only applicable to source video files that are NOT a standard ratio- 1280x720 or 1920x1080 files are fine, but sources such as 1280x536 appear stretched.

Ideally I would like to try and avoid transcoding the video files if I don't have to. This provides extra features such as FF/REW and media length. So, is there a way to only transcode source video files if they do not have a standard aspect ratio?

Apart from this very pleased with the Serviio software. Any help is appreciated, and if required I can provide more information. I am reasonably versed with video conversion formats etc.

No, that is not possible

Thanks. I've since realized that the aspect ratio issue is the device itself, it is not just with DLNA streaming.
