Hi zip,
[quote="zip"]asf generally only includes wmv (video) and wma (audio) codecs[/quote]
yes it does, and most of the asf files play fine on the Sony, but asf containers including streams like that:
Stream #0.0(eng): Audio: wmapro, 48000 Hz, 5.1, flt, 384 kb/s
Stream #0.1(eng): Video: wmv3, yuv420p, 1440x1080, 8000 kb/s, PAR 4:3 DAR 1
and are listed in the library as:
video/divx:DLNA.ORG_PN=WMVHIGH_PRO;
throw an "Audioformat not supported" error on the Sony, and picturewise just one still frame is displayed -- or the video comes to a grinding halt after a few frames. We could transcode ALL asf containers as a workaround, as it was suggested in the forum before, but is there any filter condition we could define to transcode files which meet the above specs and leave the basic SD WM-stuff untranscoded? As this file plays fluently (but silently) from a flash drive it may be just the high resolution that makes the video fail over DLNA, but we cannot define transcoding conditions based on codec AND resolution, can we?
