*UPDATE* This is solved in 1.11.372+
This is my setup:
P4 3Ghz, 2 GB, XP, PMS 1.11.366 (Tested on 1.11.350 and 1.10.51 also), direct connection 100mbit ethernet through WGR614 v6 Netgear Router
The device I am streaming to is a WD TV Live: 1.01.11
The problem:
When I try to play a title on a dvd iso, memcoder will stop encoding after 3-5 minutes (it cpu usage will go to 0%) and as a result the video will hang a little later. The time that passes before this happens is related to how large I allow the 'Transcode buffer' maximum size to be. The larger the size the longer it will be before memcoder goes zombie.
I've found one bypass that works. If I pauses the video before it hangs and waits till the original memcoder process terminates and then unpauses the video a new memcoder process will start and this one will play the rest of the title with no problems!
I'm not sure if it is related but if I stop the movie after the point where memcoder has stopped encoding and says yes to restart the movie at the point I stopped it, memcoder will start briefly and then die leaving the player waitning for a movie stream.
I've attached the debug.log as zipped.
I'm using the following render .conf for WDTV Live, where I've tried different settings as you can see, with no luck:
