No MPEG-2 Skipping

[zip]

it looks ok, maybe the TV doesn't like transcoded asf as the (for example) xbox does.

OK, the manual says it supports:

.wmv ASF Window Media Video V9 / WMA

I have found multiple formats of WMV and I can report that the WMV9 SP@ML and MP@LL (see ffmeg test files) will play natively over DLNA and jump as mime= video/x-msvideo so there is hope!!

Problem is that Servio does not add these files to its library, nor does its wmv2 transcode option generate that format.

Seems to me that it should do both given they are the base WMV formats.

can you post ffmpeg -i for the files?

Zip, the Samsung D series only supports Windows Media Video Version 9 which is fourCC WMV3. Unfortunately you (and ffmpeg) can only transcode to WMV2, so thats why the transcoded video is unplayable.

This means that there is no solution to the inability to jump any realtime transcoded video on the Samsung D series (which other than asf/wmv2 must be transcoded to MPEG).

I have been assured by the Samsung Rep on the CNET forum, that the MPEG regression (D series inability to jump) will be brought to the attention of the Product Managers, so perhaps we will see a fix in the future.

thanks.

Any news on this, I'm having the same problem. I even ran a few thru VideoReDo, with no change.

No nothing..I assume we are stuck with it.

Tried the sample file on my UE40D6200 with no success.
