Unfortunately, this issue has still not been resolved.
For starters, the 2012 profile still runs into JPEG's that won't work, even after editing that line. It also tries to play formats that don't work at all, including PNG and GIF images. These files trip up the slideshow feature and hang it indefinitely. I'd love to get those PNG and GIF images onto my TV, but If Serviio can't transcode such images to something the BDP-S570 can handle, then Serviio should simply skip such files and keep the slideshow moving.
Which brings up the other side of the issue. The 2012 profile leaves out more than half of my video files which work perfectly fine under the 2010 and 2011 profiles, so using the 2012 profile is not an option. (On a side note, it also displays some of the remaining video files that do work incorrectly. For example, a 4:3 video plays as 4:3 using the 2010 profile, but is incorrectly stretched to 16:9 using the 2012 profile.)
If there's anything that can be done to get all the image and video files working correctly under the one profile, I'd sure be grateful.
