[SOLVED] missing sound on many online channels with v1.0

[NX3]

I've added this to the Sony 2011 profile and I have audio now from Youtube, TED, HD Trailers but not iPlayer. Its a start of a work around thought it would be good to know why AAC on 2011 doesn't work I suspect a work around is the only way forward.

  Code:

<OnlineTranscoding>
      <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" forceInheritance="false">
      <Matches container="mp4" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="applehttp" vCodec="h264" />
      </Video>
   </OnlineTranscoding>

This works for iplayer, youtube, ted, hd-trailers, everything when added on the onlinetranscoding section of Sony 2011 profile.

  Code:

<OnlineTranscoding>
   <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" forceInheritance="false">
      <Matches container="mp4" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="flv" aCodec="aac" />
      </Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>

Should be this

  Code:

<OnlineTranscoding>
   <!-- Online AAC video streams miss sound, must transcode to ac3 -->
   <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
      <Matches container="mp4" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="flv" vCodec="h264" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="applehttp" vCodec="h264" aCodec="aac" />            
   </Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>

Can you confirm it still works?

Confirmed all working (youtube, iplayer, TED, HDTrailers) thanks

Can you please tell me which line this starts as I cannot find the right part of the code? Or attach the updated profiles.xml
Thanks

Add those lines to the Sony 2011 profile, just above the very last line that ends </Profile>.

Thank you

Sound is still not working on my US KDL-46HX729 (2011). I tried both solutions in the last few posts and neither makes a difference. I'm pretty sure I edited the profiles.xml file correctly, although I'm not 100% confident. A corrected attachment would be appreciated.

As requested

  Code:

<OnlineTranscoding>
   <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
      <Matches container="mp4" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="flv" vCodec="h264" aCodec="aac" />
      <Matches container="applehttp" vCodec="h264" aCodec="aac" />            
   </Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>


Thanks a lot! This works perfecty for OnlineTranscoding, but can it be copy-pasted also to the Transcoding element to fix sound for e.g. videos downloaded with the youtube-dl script? It seems to work without any hitches, but I'd just like to know if something else is needed to fix this properly.

Question for Zip / Illico, do we need to raise this via bitbucket for inclusion into the next release ?

Sorry to dig this up but Sony 2011 offline files with AAC audio don't play using Serviio 1.2. Does a similar line to the online section need to be added to get audio working? I thought this was all fixed but maybe not yet.

  Code:

Audio
ID                                       : 2
Format                                   : AAC
Format/Info                              : Advanced Audio Codec
Format profile                           : LC
Codec ID                                 : A_AAC
Duration                                 : 28mn 40s
Channel(s)                               : 2 channels
Channel positions                        : Front: L R
Sampling rate                            : 44.1 KHz
Compression mode                         : Lossy
Default                                  : Yes
Forced                                   : No

Nice bump, Zip suggests the same tip as I figured out for online streams, so it seems =aac rather than vod is the right option.

Anyhow try: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3662&start=40#p65798 for your offline files.

Note: I appear to have broken ITVplayer though, although everything else now seems to work.
