Samsung mpeg4 transcoding

I'm using Serviio for some time now. It is really great. Simple and easy.
However I noticed that some of files are not correctly trans-coded. This is one of them:

  Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Serviio\lib>ffmpeg.exe -i C:\temp\tst.avi

Re: Samsung mpeg4 transcoding

Looks like a normal DivX AVI file. Not sure, but it looks like some encoding settings are preventing it from being played on the TV. You could either reencode it manually or setup transcoding for all divx files - which is a big overkill though, as other divx files should be playable natively.

Re: Samsung mpeg4 transcoding

Can this be cause of the issue:

[mpeg4 @ 02b01fa0] Invalid and inefficient vfw-avi packed B frames detected ?

It is part of ffmpeg.exe output ... see above.
