Serviio

So I've been using these forms for a long time to help fix problems over the years (and even out of love for the software I even bought the paid for version!) and the software is great, so I thought I should give something back that you probably all already know but there you go;

So the Samsung YV F Series (I have F6300 and F5500) have an issue with DTS-HD. The video and audio will work but the voice is always slightly off, just enough to make you spend the whole time watching the mouths...

To get round this you either convert the DTS-HD stream within the MKV to something else, this is a bit of hassle and I also found that tsMuxeR which seems the quickest way to do it seems to also cause a slight voice sync issue in itself.... so if you don;t want to hunt around you can just force it ti transcode anything with DTS-HD

See below;

<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3">
<Matches container="*" aCodec="dts-hd" />
</Video>

The only bug about doing it this way is that you can't skip through the video file as it is transcoding and so has that very long time stamp...

Anyway I hope this helps and if anyone has the F series and found a better way do let me know!

I have the f5500 and am having the same issue. Could you please tell me where to input this text?
Thanks, Scott

I placed it just after the "Transcode h264 MP$ ..." section within the "Samsung TV / player (E/F-series)" profile

The only real issue is you then can;t RW/FW/Pause etc.. but its better than spending the whole time looking at the lip sync issue.

Hope this helps
