Kindle Fire support?

[markshu]

Is there going to be a profile made for a stock Kindle Fire?

[Paul]

Since the Kindle Fire runs Android, then we recommend using the iMediaShare app together with the RockPlayer app (both are free Android apps). RockPlayer supports quite a lot of formats and Mezzmo has a specific "RockPlayer" device profile that needs to be set for it (go to the Media Devices dialog to do this).

[markshu]

While I appreciate the recommendation, RockPlayer is not available through the Kindle app store - hence the request for a stock Kindle profile. In addition, a stock profile (video support=h.264 AVC/ACC) would allow those of us who have large media libraries on Windows boxes (Win7,WHS2011,etc) to use the Kindle as a player for local media while only having to configure the media server.

[Paul]

OK - understand now. You will need an app on your Kindle Fire that is capable of UPnP/DLNA communication and playing media files. Check your Kindle fire if there is an app already capable of this, or you will have to download and install one from Amazon's Appstore. Once you have found an app (or apps) that can play media from UPnP/DLNA sources (such as from streamed from Mezzmo media server), then try to connect to Mezzmo and see if it works. Try changing the device profile to "Alpha Systems Media Link Player Lite (Baseline)" or "Mariia Smeshkova 8player" or "Android Honeycomb". If no success, contact us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com and we will try to create a specific device profile for you.

Markshu - I tried aVia Media Player and got some of my files to stream. Wasn't 100% working and forgot to go back and try to figure it out.

I work with the development team for aVia media player, so I am a little biased. Markshu, while there isn't a stock kindle app you are looking for, I think aVia will work well for you. We can see media from windows media servers and other dlna / upnp servers. There is also a renderer on the app so you can send media to it from another device.
As for what media is available, on the kindle it is limited to the native availability of codecs and containers. There is a lot of solid free software out there that can help you convert movies and music to a format that the kindle can play. We are working on supporting more than just the native types, but that will be in future releases. Hope this helps

[Paul]

Hi Silas, Thanks for assisting. How about you contact us via email (support [at] conceiva [dot] com) and we can create a dedicated device profile in Mezzmo that works perfectly with your aVia media player. Kindle users don't need a convert app since Mezzmo transcodes on-the-fly to all popular video/audio/image formats so given we know what formats that your aVia media player supports, then we can create a nice streaming environment for Kindle Fire users. Look forward to hearing from you.

Just an update - Mezzmo v2.6.3 has been released and this version now has native Kindle Fire support. Let us know if you have any problems.

Just an update - Mezzmo v2.6.3 has been released and this version now has native Kindle Fire support. Let us know if you have any problems.Hey Paul - what do you mean by native support?

[Paul]

We mean that you can download and run a DLNA client app (such as Skifta) from Amazon's app store and it will play your files now when you assign the 'Amazon Kindle Fire' device profile to your device in Mezzmo.

[absoluteg]

Paul - I have upgraded to 2.6.3 and i have a Kindle Fire running Skifta - however some content file types won't play on the Fire. I have my device IP setup to use the Kindle Fire profile. It appears that MKV, AVI, MOV, and a few other types are unable to play on the Fire (streamed by Mezzmo). I haven't captured any mezzmo logs to include at this point. What i have found, when browsing my Mezzmo library and attempting to play the file through the default Kindle Fire media player, these content types come up with "error can't be played". Have you heard of these issues and have any recommendation? I would really like to get the Kindle Fire to play my media consistently.

The other thing i have found, using many of the other programs, like iMediaShare Lite and a few others, is that some players will play the content like AVI's just fine, but won't play other content. I'm not sure what exactly the problem is...if it is on the Mezzmo profile side or if it is the actual Kindle Fire media player.

In your testing, what was the configuration of the Kindle Fire, what software and was the content types limited that could actually be played?

From some reserach i found, it appears the Fire has 800x400 resolution, with H264 video and AAC audio and the bitrate must be under 2500Kb/s. I haven't looked at the Kindle Fire profile to see what exactly is going on, but if that is the format that can be played consistently, then i don't mind if i transcode all media to this type and then stream.

Thanks!
Greg

[Paul]

Hi Greg,

The current Amazon Kindle Fire device profile shipping in Mezzmo v2.6.3 only supports MP4 (H264, AAC) video and will transcoded anything else into this format. The device profile does not have 800x400 as the maximum resolution or 2500 kb/s as the maximum bitrate. Perhaps that is why some of your files are not playing. Contact us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com and we'll tweak the device profile to match your findings.

[absoluteg]

Paul - I will contact support as recommended. Just a few other things to set the stage:

1. I'm using skifta for DLNA client (have tried a few others, but this seems to show me everything in the library)
2. I have tried a number of players, MoboPlayer, VLC, iMediaShare Lite. Currently trying MoboPlayer or VLC.

The log below is trying to play an MKV file, as stated i have choosen the Kindle Fire profile (Stock) and set the configuration properly to match network, etc.

[Paul]

Thanks for the log. We can see the problem now & will fix it immediately. We'll send you a new device profile to try via email.

[hartlenb]

Can you post a note here when the new profile is available and how we can get a copy... Since the new release I can't get my files to play on my Fire. I tried both skifta and Avia (which used to work for some files) without any luck.

[BroMarduk]

I'm getting the same problem when transcoding to the Amazon Kindle Fire (same error message and codes, obviously different files).

I also have some errors with some MP3 transcoding on the Panasonic Viera TV (Using the Panasonice Viera 3D profile). This only occurs on about 10-15 of 23K songs but is annoying nonetheless...

[Paul]

Can you post a note here when the new profile is available and how we can get a copy... Since the new release I can't get my files to play on my Fire. I tried both skifta and Avia (which used to work for some files) without any luck.

The new device profile is ready to try - please contact us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com and we'll send details how you can try it.

[absoluteg]

Hi Paul - I just emailed support. I will give this a try this evening and report back my results! Looking forward to testing this out. Glad i wasn't the only one having issues, indicating i might have been doing something wrong on my end!

-Greg

[Paul]

Hi Greg,

We just sent you details about the updated Kindle Fire device profile. Let us know how you go.

[absoluteg]

Hi Paul - I'm still struggling to play files on the kindle fire. Although now instead of files failing to transcode at all, they now transcode but never actually play on the device. I get the screenshot below:
284

Also this is the FFMpeg output of one of the failed files (meaning it will transcode in Mezmmo, but never actually plays on the kindle)

Do you happen to see anything obvious?

Thanks,

The other odd thing, is that these files although they start to transcode, will all get to a certain % in and they will go "paused". Also, some if not all will show that "too slow" status (not sure what this means). And, my list has other server paused items in the transcode list, that i say 'delete all' too, but after i delete them and the list goes empty. As soon as i start a new transcode file (for another device) they all show back up in the list - i can't actually appear to delete them. I'm hoping the screenshots below help tell the story.

Also note, i'm on 2.6.4.0 Mezzmo. And i did apply the profile that was emailed to me.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the test results. We're looking into it now and will email you a new device profile to try.

Hi Paul - Thank you, i look forward to testing the new profile. I will provide feedback as soon as i get it.

Thanks!

I use ArkMC application as Kindle Fire DLNA client. It is simple and supports many file formats.

There is a new "Arkuda Digital ArcMC" device profile included in Mezzmo v3.0 so make sure you set this device profile in the Media Devices dialog for your Kindle for best results.
