Sony SMP N100

I recently purchased the Sony SMP N100 and love all the features it provides, have tryed a number of servers on my windows xp machine and have mixed luck with each. Serviio has played the most format's once I switched to the Sony Bravia profile. I did find the Sony SMP N100 profile thatw as written by another user, but have not had much luck getting the server to run after editting the profile's (using notepad). The files that don't want to play are "MOV" and "MP4" videos. any suggestions on how I can solve my problems??

Did notice a difference in the xml code on the one submitted here and the one in the version I am using.

try adding that to the profile.xml file i think your issue was the one on the other post had an " profile id " of 9 and that is used by another device so i have simply change its id to 14 as that is not used and profile id has to be unique.

Regards Cerberus

all credit for the profile has to go to synapses11

Pasted the profile you provided but serviio refused to start, log stating code error. I changed the tags after the detection to the <UPnPSearch> <FriendlyName> etc. and the profile was then accepted by Serviio. Unfortunatly the profile "14" actually played fewer formats that the Sony Bravia one.

Still need to figure out the Transcoding for "MOV" and "MP4" format videos.

Perhaps adding these to exsisting xml code.

Thanks for your response.
