No audio with FLV videos on Sony HX929

I can't seem to get any audio to come out on my HX929 when playing FLV videos that I have. I have the Sony Bravia TV (2011) - US selected for my profile. Is there a fix for this? I'm a new user of Serviio so maybe there is something that I missed setting up.

FLV stored locally ?
What version of Serviio are you on ?

Can you get the codec details from mediainfo and post back here ? as per my sig

Yes the FLV files are on my PC. I just downloaded the latest version. Here is the mediainfo..

  Code:

Seems that HE-AAC audio format is not supported by Sony devices. But I'm not sure that serviio distinguish AAC vs HE-AAC.

aac on 2011 series is a problem, I had the same issue online and offline as in here:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3662&start=40

For the Sony 2011 USA profile replace it with this, it should fix it for you:

  Code:

      <Profile id="sony2011us" name="Sony Bravia TV (2011) - US" extendsProfileId="sony2011">
       <!-- 2011 models for US (without avi/divx)
           - Still images: JPEG
           - Music: MP3, linear PCM, WMA
           - Video: AVCHD, MPEG2, MPEG1, MP4 (AVC), MP4 (MPEG4), WMV -->
      <Transcoding>
                         <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
                                <!-- if audio aac, it must be transcoded to ac3 -->
                                <Matches container="*" aCodec="aac" />
                                </Video>
         <!-- Transcode DivX, AVI -->
         <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" maxVBitrate="17000" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
            <Matches container="avi" vCodec="mpeg4" />
            <Matches container="avi" vCodec="msmpeg4" />
            <Matches container="avi" vCodec="mjpeg" />
         </Video>
      </Transcoding>
   </Profile>

Could you provide the ffmpeg -i result (see signature link) ?

I replaced that profile but it still doesn't seem to be working.

Here is that info

Did you reload / reboot serviio after changing the profile ?

I just stopped and started the service but that didn't help so I rebooted my PC and it works now. Thanks

[NX3]

Can you post the log from when its trying to play the file ?

Hi,
You need to have the change in the Bravia profile perform year 2012 . The Insert under 2011 brings nothing.
