PMS SubJunk Build

[glenrocks]

Hi- I downloaded build SB 66 x86 windows and am having problem with mencoder-2 but SB 61 mencoder works perfectly..any idea as I tried to compare both constructed commands and I get same error from command line too.. SB66 saying "Cannot open demuxer"..Maybe something to do with IPv6 or just new mencoder-2?

Attaching SB66 as zip and SB61 working command is:

Code: Select all

Hi,

I had on Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) the follow error:

Code: Select all

[main] WARN  13:10:04.258 Error loading libzen: Unable to load library 'zen': libzen.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[main] INFO  13:10:04.259 Loading MediaInfo library
[main] INFO  13:10:04.274 Error loading MediaInfo library: Unable to load library 'mediainfo': libmediainfo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[main] INFO  13:10:04.275 Make sure you have libmediainfo and libzen installed

the librarys are correct installed, but PMS only search in a wrong location.

after symlinking the libs to /usr/lib/ PMS can find and load them:

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libmediainfo.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libzen.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/

possible it can be fixed? Version I used is: pms-1.50.2-SB66

Hi SJ-
Since SB 66 build had issues for me with mencoder-2, I tried SHB build and came across install feature which would be nice to have in this SB 66 build too...before install, it asks for Java memory size to allocate!! Just curious though, I understand that SB build is only for windows and SB builds are both windows/linux...right??

Chocolateboy- Hi...Question: would you know if there is documentation/steps to watch for to install PS3 media server on Lacie Network space 2/NAS.

I still haven't been able to pause/rewind/save live streams but found a way to skip media files stored on local network using Chapters feature. Suggestions please! (Should I raise it as an issue/improvement with transcoding pipes being mostly named pipe over tcpip and have not been able to make save&play work through confuguration settings)

I've noticed an issue where, when watching something coming through MEncoder, it seems the last 4-5 seconds of the video are getting cut off?

I didn't see anyone else complain about this so maybe I've configured something wrongly?

Also, is everyone able to play MKV/H264/AAC correctly and without audio synch issues?

Haven't noticed this on my one PC with SubJunk66. Sorry.

I can however say that I have had issues with many an MKV w/AAC audio in the past. So much so, that I either removed those files then replaced with new copies, or I remuxed them to an MP4 container, or flat out converted them using external software. I have none left to test with this build, as I now completely avoid that combination, but I do remember having issues with this combo of audio and video in MKV with previous PMS versions, trying to serve to my PS3.

Perhaps the issue is back or never left.

Hi Subjunk, can you make one to be able to play back the Cineva code.

SubJunk,

Can you please check your build for issues with MKV files which use AAC audio?

In particular, I am finding poor compatibility (using both Mencoder and TSMuxer) with the WEB-DL versions of "The Walking Dead".

Some of the affected media filenames...

The.Walking.Dead.S01E02.Guts.720p.WEB-DL.AAC2.0.h.264-ETP.mkv
The.Walking.Dead.S02E04.Cherokee.Rose.720p.WEB-DL.AAC2.0.H.264-CtrlHD.mkv
The.Walking.Dead.S02E09.Triggerfinger.720p.WEB-DL.AAC2.0.H.264-CtrlHD.mkv

If played thru Tsmuxer: crashes after 5 seconds (during studio logo)
If played thru Mencoder: plays, but the video is jerky (like it's skipping a frame) and the audio is terribly out of synch

None of the files use header compression so that can't be it.

I tested The.Walking.Dead.S02E04.Cherokee.Rose.720p.WEB-DL.AAC2.0.H.264-CtrlHD and it works for me. Audio is perfectly in sync and I can't notice any frame skipping. Do you have any codec packs installed?
