Serviio

Hi Guys

Have been using serviio for a few years now with no issues at all, now all of a sudden i cannot play movies at all, smaller TV eps seem to play with no issues at all.

think it stopped working last windows update but cant be sure

anyone experiencing this? I have attached full log if that helps

From your log, it appears your player is using the generic profile. I don't know specifically what your player is (it looks like a Samsung TV, but I don't know the model), but most TVs require some sort of profile to play some content correctly. If I'm looking at the correct model number, it's not a US model, and I can't find much info on it. But my Samsung experience with DLNA playback has been less that satisfactory for many years. Try using a Samsung profile. I think the NU profile is the most recent, so that's where I suggest starting.

I can play my movies without an issue with the generic profile, but my player is the Nvidia Shield, using Kodi as the player. This device will play almost anything, so no transcoding of any kind is necessary. Most TVs are less than satisfactory for playing ripped movies and TV shows. I don't bother with any of my TVs for playback, instead using the Shield or a Roku player. You might be happier with a stand-alone Android based player, almost all which will run Kodi. Even the $20 Onn 4K media player supports everything other than lossless audio using Kodi. You might not have a Walmart nearby, but there's plenty of Android based players that are all under $50 US.

I will try the Samsung profile, the odd thing is everything worked a few weeks ago, and even now the tv eps still work.

thanks

If your TV picked up a new IP address from your router, Serviio might not have assigned the correct profile to it, and that could cause playback issues.
