Can't stream mp4 to ps3

[based]

I really don't know what the problem is. I can't stream any mp4 from my mac to the ps3. It always says the data is corrupted. I've tried to force transcoding from the transcode settings but still no luck.

Can you provide more detailed information?

I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo And I'm using Wifi through my router. I haven't had any problems playing mp4's until about 2 weeks ago. This i pretty much all I could find: [0x0-0x405405].PS3 Media Server[46394]: [New I/O server worker #1-1] INFO 17:23:07.500 Media renderer was not recognized.

The problem is that MEncoder runs into an error:

Code: Select all

[New I/O server worker #2-1] DEBUG 16:06:42.454 Starting "/Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Resources/Java/osx/ffmpeg" -i "/Users/******/Movies/Warrior.mp4" -vframes 1 -vcodec copy -f h264 -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -an -y pipe:
[Thread-151] DEBUG 16:06:42.481 dyld: unknown required load command 0x80000022

But there is no info in the log on what that "unknown required load command" might be.

[osx/mencoder] INFO  16:06:43.305 Process /Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Resources/Java/osx/mencoder has a return code of 133! Maybe an error occurred... check the log file

Could that have something to do with it? I really don't know anything at all about this. I'm just confused why this suddenly is happening when it has been playing just fine.

[Raptor399]

Yes, that definitely has to do with it.

The main problem here is that MEncoder is a bit silent about the problem it encounters, other than the return code 133.
You could try running the command manually and see if a better error description appears.
Open a Terminal and run this command:

Code: Select all

"/Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Resources/Java/osx/mencoder" -ss 0 \
    "~/Movies/Warrior.mp4" -oac lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts \
    format=mpeg2:muxrate=500000:vbuf_size=1194:abuf_size=64 -ovc lavc \

Just copy and past that in Terminal? I tried that and this happened:

Code: Select all

dyld: unknown required load command 0x80000022
Trace/BPT trap


Also a popup came up saying the application mencoder quit unexpectedly.

[Raptor399]

Alas. That's not much more info than the log file gave.
Sounds like mencoder doesn't like your .mp4. Which version of mencoder is it?
Just run this in to Terminal to see:

Code: Select all

"/Applications/PS3 Media Server.app/Contents/Resources/Java/osx/mencoder"

The same exact message came up, the popup as well
