WMA2 transcoding

First sorry about my bad english, hope you understand. I'm also noob with serviio.
I can't get Finnish online radiostations http://www.listenlive.eu/finland.html which are marked windows media player working. Others works fine. For example the first one (YLE Radio 1), Url Snooper gives stream http://mediau.yle.fi/liveyleradio1?MSWMExt=.asf which works in VLC player but serviio check gives red x, and I can't hear it in my Samsung D-series tv nor VLC via serviio (generic profile). I suppose that there is something wrong in transcoding wma2 (or is it asf)? Or is there somethig wrong in url? I tested with wma audio file and it doesn't work either.
My serviio server is in headless ubuntu server 12.04 lte machine and console is in win7 laptop.

Re: WMA2 transcoding

It's a playlist file. Try to look inside the file and use a link inside the playlist. You might go few levels deep.

Re: WMA2 transcoding

That doesn't explain why downloaded wma file don't work? (file: http://www.theflute.co.uk/media/BachCPE_SonataAmin_1.wma). I translated it to mp3 with ffmpeg and that mp3 works, so my ffmpeg build is able to transcode wma files. I suppose that something is missing or wrong in profile.xml file (both general and Samsung d series).

Re: WMA2 transcoding

I can't still get those online streams workig. I found stream mmsh://195.248.86.134/a_keskisuomi?MSWMExt=.asf which don't work. ffmpeg -i mmsh://195.248.86.134/a_keskisuomi?MSWMExt=.asf gives this:

Re: WMA2 transcoding

When I execute the ffmpeg command it doesn't work - is the IP private?

Re: WMA2 transcoding

Perhaps stream don't work outside finland (YLE is like BBC, not all streams are available outside country). Here is other stream mmsh://mms.radiodei.fi/RadioDeiR2HF?MSWMExt=.asf (Religious channel, suppose it work everywhere)

ffmpeg -i gives this:
Guessed Channel Layout for Input Stream #0.0 : stereo
Input #0, asf, from 'mmsh://mms.radiodei.fi/RadioDeiR2HF?MSWMExt=.asf':
Metadata:
WMFSDKNeeded : 0.0.0.0000

At least one output file must be specified


Off topic, but those streams are hidden very carefully. Any of those wma streams I found don't work, even though ffmpeg recognize them. Am I right if I suppose that stream should pass serviios test if ffmpeg recognize it despite profile settings? Profile settings are for client devices, or how?
