Hello,

I am using Mezzmo with LG 3D TV model 42LM620T.

Device profile: LG TV (2012 models)

On a couple of .avi files the streaming stops and starts from the beginning continually.

File details:

AVI format
MPEG-4 part 2
MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)
bit rate: 1027423
sample rate: 48000 Hz
====================

Also: when I right-click on the file: properties/video/get properties from file, the program crashes...:mad:

Any help advice greatly appreciated!

Hi Robert,

Using the 'LG TV (2012 models)' device profile, these AVI files are passed directly to your TV. It seems there is something in the encoding of these AVI files that is causing your TV's firmware to get confused. As a test, try pre-transcoding these AVI files to another compatible format. To do this, right-click on the AVI file in Mezzmo and click 'Pre-transcode Files'. In the Pre-transcode Files dialog, choose your TV and then click 'Choose Formats'. In the Transcoding Formats dialog, choose the bolded format and click OK. Click OK to start pre-transcoding. Go to the Transcoding pane to monitor progress. Once transcoding is complete, try streaming the AVI again to your TV.

Hello Paul,

Many thanks for the prompt response.

I have pre-transcoded the file(s) as instructed but I get an error result:

I suspect there may be something wrong with the file itself as it does not play with either WMP, RealPlayer or VLC. So I will detele this rubbish...

Appreciate your help!

I agree, Robert. The AVI file seems to be badly encoded so that's why it does not play.

Hello,

I am using Mezzmo with LG 3D TV model 42LM620T.

I am experiencing seriously slow transacoding speeds 3 fps (too low) on mp4 files that I did not need transcoding before! Suddently something has happened and virtually unable to play anymore of those videos (mp4 and mkv).

Also unable to change the device settings/Connection from "Gigabit ethernet cable 1gb" to "Ethernet cable 100Mbps". Also device settings/profile from LG TV LE to LG TV 2012 models.

I have an LG 3D TV model and cannot see any profile for that.

.avi files play ok - but .mkv and .mp4 mezzmo server has become useless - what has happened?
