SD mkv is being transcoded by BDP profile, not sure why

[patters]

I just wanted to watch a TV show which I have several seasons of. The episodes are small files - they're SD h264 with aac audio. However, they seem to be getting transcoded to mpeg2, which my NAS can't do in realtime.

I'm fairly sure these files used to play fine with Serviio 0.5.2, remuxed to mpegts, as one might expect from the Sony BD profile. Any idea why they're matching the transcode section of the profile?

Seems stream 0 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 50.00 (50/1) -> 50.00 (50/1)

when you re-add the file (with detailed log), what level does it say it is?

I finally remembered to investigate this issue. The files are all H.264 High Profile Level 5.1 for some stupid reason, even though they're tiny. I guess I can remove the level checking in the BDP profile to force them to play, since they worked before.

I've found http://coolsoft.altervista.org/en/h264leveleditor very useful for editing the profile level.
