PS3 media server and LG BD 390 blue ray

[SylvainDLNA]

Hi Guys,

I have Windows XP, Cduo, 2go ram, 1To DD and a LG BD 390 blueray DLNA. There is a fastethernet network beetween my PC and the LG BD 390. I share folders on my PC (with the standard sharing Windows XP) and I can play music, pictures and videos PC on my TV with LG BD 390 but I can’t play interactive DVD menus. That’s the reason why I have tried to use PS3 media server, I want to create a DLNA server to play interactive DVD menus on my TV from my PC.
Is it possible with PS3 media server? It seems yes?

At this moment, I can see PS3 media server DLNA on the screen of my TV (in fact on the media menu of the LG BD 390) but I have a failure when I try to connect.

This is my PS3 media server traces :

LG BD 390 Access would be reeeeealy nice update! Please!

[KERIO]

Anyone get it working?

[ps3ForMyLg]

Any updates regarding LG BD 390 ?

[spjoe]

hmm now any update?
I made a network dump and i saw following difference between nero home 4 and ps3mediaserver 1.20 r410 with this config and deleted the WDTVLive.conf, because the config matches also the player.

with nero 4 i got

and the lg player crashes after some seconds

hopefully anyone can use this information

PS: Font color do not work in code section so please imagine the colors

thank you for reading

EDIT: Here some of my ideas:
Maybe we must transfer in chunked mode and what this 40000 means?
and maybe we must declare this "TRANSFERMODE.DLNA.ORG: Streaming"

does anyone have some expirience with dlna?

[spjoe]

I have done some further investigations
So the ps3mediaserver does not handle the "range: bytes=x-y" right. The programm ignores the highrange value. The value are given through to DLNAresource.java but in the DLNAMediaInfo.java the value is not theire so the player write the whole file into the stream. And content-length is not right (is the length of the whole file, but we want just 16 bytes)

Answere of my question

Maybe we must transfer in chunked mode and what this 40000 means?
and maybe we must declare this "TRANSFERMODE.DLNA.ORG: Streaming"

40000 is HEX and the length of the chunk
Think transfermode is not the problem. But tranfer-encoding should be chunked

Any ideas where can add code to prevent sending the whole file?

[spjoe]

new improvments!
now the capture packets looks very similare to nero mediahome
but it still do not work, hmpf

.U.V.......

The http content is realy 0x40000 big. But it seams we open ever http chunk a new tcp connection, nero do not.
And i get very strange request from lg bd390 like this:

I'm not sure what i should answere, if the range is inposible

[spjoe]

great news!!! now it works, but further testing is required!!!
how to:
remove wdtvlive.conf
patch the soure with

workingpatch.rar

okay here is a patch for the same issue, maybe works better than my patch (i have not tested this patch)

[patters]

Hi spjoe,

I had a feeling that the issue affecting the LG BD 390 would be similar to the problem with the Sony 2010 Bluray players - chunked transfer mode. It's been discussed in this thread:
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=6930

As you spotted WorldOfHurt has made a patch for this issue. I find that it works for DivX and H.264 in m2ts but H.264 in mkv/mp4/m4v stutters (the player should play all of them without transcode). So, in case your fix uses some different strategy I compiled it but modified the function isLG390() to return true for all renderers. I get pretty much exactly the same results with your fix too. Do these formats play smoothly on the LG?

Looking at the code (admittedly from a Java novice point of view - I mostly write VBScript) I wondered if we need some kind of new variable in the renderer .conf which would be read by RendererConfiguration.java instead of having to hard-set behaviours for each renderer, since presumably there will be other renderers which may expect this transfer mode. However, I do realise that this is just a fix at this stage.

Do you have any recommendations for good intros to Java programming - pitched at people who know another language?
