Serviio

Hi

I'm trying to get serviio to work with my Sony Google TV and iPad (I know, good luck).

For the Sony Google TV, I am using aVia Media player. It mostly works except for some files.

"aVia Media Renderer." does show up in the list of renderers under device name. I manually assign Sony Bravia TV and several other profiles but those problematic files (mkvs, mostly) fail to play. Yet other mkv (x264 codec) files play just fine.

Question: if I manually assign the profile, it uses that profile, correct? It doesn't matter what the <Identification> entry says, right?

I stop and restart server each time. I even stop and restart the serviio service (win 7 x64). Is that necessary?

For the ipad, I copied a profile posted on this forum. But it's not transcoding, and looking at the log (I have DEBUG logging on) it doesn't seem to be using the ipad profile that I manually assign. (I think it's using the generic profile). The result is only mp4/mov files play. There are some players on the ipad that attempt to play other files, but not well at all. It'd be better to transcode.

thanks for any help.

I think someone tried to get a Google TV profile already.


Right.


You have to restart the service (or PC), just stopping the server from the console won't work.
