Great product but having .WTV metadata problem

PostPosted: Wed Jan 22, 2014 7:21 pm

I installed Serviio yesterday so I can stream recorded TV shows from Media Center PC running Windows 7 x64 to a Samsung smart tv in an upstairs bedroom. The TV shows are recorded in .wtv format. Without Serviio I can browse the shows and the metadata is correct but I can't view them. WIth Serviio, I can watch the shows and I must say that the quality of the transcoding far exceeded my expectations. But the metadata is incorrect to the point that I really can't tell which show is which. All the pertinent metadata is contained within the body of the .wtv file. Right click on the file and select 'Properties' and then select the 'Details' tab to see the metadata. Is it possible that Serviio is not using the embedded metadata from the file but trying to find it online using the filename? Or perhaps I just don't have it configured properly?

Yes, embedded video file metadata is not used yet. Can you post ffmpeg -i for your file?

Here's one Zip. I have dozens more, including some HD if you'd like.
