HELP NEEDED: Arris Media Gateway / WOW! Ultra TV

Hey guys. I'm in need of some genius level help here. I have no idea about any of this, but do have an understanding of where to put what.

I've been closely following this thread http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5462 on getting Serviio to transcode to the Wow! Ultra TV Service (Arris Media Gateway/Players).

It seems like the two that were trying to work it out figured out how to do it, yet left it relatively unfinished on the thread itself (maybe due to this service not being so wide spread??).

Well anyway the last entry of coding that they had was the one listed below. However when I add this to my profiles.xml file, the Serviio app refuses to open/stay open. Once I remove this entry, everything is fine. Can someone please help me with getting this to work??

Final Listed Code (Not Working):

Ok i found the issue. The number "22" was already taken. Changed it to 23, and now it's working again.

Ok so I seem to be experiencing stuttering on almost all files. Can anyone help me work this out?

Try with "maxVBitrate " option, see on Sony 2009 profile for example...

I'll give a look and see what I can do. Thanks.

That seemed to have done the trick, thanks for that. Is that a comfortable (read Normal) bit-rate for 720p material, or should I set it a bit higher?

Most of my movies are in m4v/mp4 format with a bit rate of around ~3000. I find that when I first start watching movies that are still in high bit rate mkv form, the stuttering starts. And then continues even when switching to lower bit rate files. But if I start out with a lower bit rate file, then I'm fine.

Also, just because I'm a stickler for trying to make everything 100% functional, is there a way to get the Arris Media Gateway named too?

The profile I have defines the Arris Media Players, both respectively on 192.168.0.4 & 7. The Gateway however, which serves as DVR/Wireless Router, is at 192.168.0.1 but shows and an "Unrecognized device" under device name in the Serviio Console. I understand that adding the profile will get it named, but HOW would I find out the httpheader/user-agent info in order to add it?

I use Mac OS X btw. I don't know if that makes a difference or not.

Look at INTEL tool : viewtopic.php?f=5&t=19
and post the device description xml of your device.

Anyone know what I should add in order to make my DVR/Wireless Router show up as a named device in Serviio?
