Philips TV7000 still skips to next title with Mezzmo 2.7.1

[BeFi]

I applied 2.7.1 (with .17 patch) a few weeks back and confirmed that my Samsung C and D TVs are not skipping or disconnecting any more.
I have to report however that my Philips D9631 (recognized by Mezzmo as TV7000) now skips at random duration into my MPEG2 streams. Occasionally it plays the whole stream, next time it skips midway.
The same TV did not skip at all with Mezzmo 2.5. It sits at the branch of my LAN with the highest throughput so bandwidth is definitely not an issue.

A second glitch with my Philips TV is that it does not play AVCHD streams through Mezzmo. The AVCHD stream is intrpreted as a 1920x1280 photo. My Mezzmo settings would allow transcoding if the device dos not support a format but there is no transcoding going on.

I tried to generate logs of the skips but had the same effect as when previously supporting error analysis for the Samsungs: With logging ON no skipping occurred. So - no logs.

Best regards

Hi Bernhard,

1. Skipping issue: Even though when logging is turned on no skipping occurs, please do turn on logging and stream a full movie to your Philips TV. Once it has completed playing, zip up all the logs and email them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com. We want to analyze the DLNA conversation that your Philips TV is having with Mezzmo.

2. AVCHD issue: With logging turned on, stream an AVCHD video to your Philips TV. When it displays as a photo, stop your Mezzmo server and exit Mezzmo. Zip up all the logs and email them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.

Hi Paul,

A set of logs with streaming of my MPEG2s through the Philips and attempts to stream AVCHD.264 have been sent to support@conceiva.com
Resolution is not urgent but would be the icing on the stability cake of 2.7.1.

Best regards
Bernhard

Many thanks, Bernhard. We'll analyze them & report back.

Any news Paul?

Sorry for the delay, Bernhard. We are analyzing the logs now & will respond shortly.

Hi Paul,

Peter made me aware while analyzing the format issue with my Philips TV that I had applied the 2.7.1.17 patch incompletely. MezzmoMediaServer.exe was still at 2.7.1 level. After updating MezzmoMediaServer to 2.7.1.17 my Philips TV seems to have stopped skipping. Lets assume that the 2.7.1.17 patch fixed the skipping issue for my Philips as well for now.

My Samsungs are still working fine after the update - hence 2.7.1.17 seems to have addressed the streaming instabilities.

Great news, Bernhard. Thanks for posting the outcome.
