Official thread for non-ps3 renderers (Bravia, etc.)

[0469580]

@Luup, are you using PMS version 1.20 from Otmanix?
I'm not sure if it had something to do with this version or something else changed on my computer, but after installing this version, I was (and still am) able to stream VIDEO_TS folders.

[luup]

Yes, I am using v1.20 from Otmanix. I have replaced mencoder.exe and mplayer.exe by the version stated earlier in this thread.
Nevertheless, I am not able to stream VIDEO_TS folders or DVD ISO files. Any ideas what to look at?

What does the debug.log file show when trying to open a VIDEO_TS folder?

It seems that the codecs.conf is missing but that the defaults are being used.

1) Do you have that file on your system?
2) What symbol do you get for '[DVD ISO] VIDEO_TS'? I get a video folder (not file) symbol...

[0469580]

1) No, I don't have that file. My systems says exactly the same.
2) On my TV it's also shown as an video folder and not a file.

The E: drive, is that a DVD player or a harddisk? I'm playing my DVD's from my harddisk.

[luup]

Thx for checking.

The E: drive is a harddisk.

So I have to dig further into the details... What does your debug.log look like? Any deviations?

[0469580]

What happens if you type this command at a DOS prompt?

It should show something like this:

I ran the command in a DOS box. I think the issue was that mplayer scanned my complete Windows\Fonts Directory (whyever) initially (it does not happen anymore). This took quite some time and thus the TV (and maybe PMS as well) registered a time out.
After having used the command line so that the complete scan finished I am able to stream directly to the TV. Strange, isn't it?

Here are my test findings so far:

Videos:

- pause, next or previous chapter, fast forward, etc. is not possible --> @tomeko: where did you add your findings you mention in http://ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2099&start=60#p11203?
- audio volume is quite low
- transcoding of some .mov files is not working (I will need to check the debug.log for that)
- HD streaming is working for mkv files
- HD streaming is not working for some ts files (processor and network utilization have not reached their limits)


Code: Select all

[Thread-284] DEBUG 11:29:10.521 INVALID DESCR LEN for tag 2e: 72 vs 29 max, EXIT LOOP

Audio:

- mp4 audio files are displayed as folders instead of audio files and cannot be played
- audio thumbnails of mp3s are not getting displayed

Pictures:

- RAW files are not getting displayed in portait mode (jpgs are displayed correct)
- folders with more than ~2000 pictures are not getting processed

Nevertheless, PMS is doing great already!

[shagrath]

rev 342 should be better (I hope).... I'll make a build later

[otmanix]

latest builds you can find in this thread: http://ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=919 At the moment there is only build339 available.

I have already compiled build343 which you can download here:
http://otmanix.de/download/pms-setup-windows-1.20.exe
http://otmanix.de/download/pms-linux-1.20.tgz
New build contains 2 config-files for Sony Bravia TVs and a bravia-picture...
