I changed the Hopper/Joey profile for MP4 to encode=0, and set the MPEG2 to encode=1. It transcodes everything to MPEG2 and plays well, other than it stressing my computer and only getting about 34FPS.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll change the Dish Hopper device profile base don your testing. If any Dish Hopper owners want the new device profile, please contact us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com & we'll send it out to you.
Running the latest version (2.6.3), my AppleTV/2 encoded movies seem to play better using the Dish Hopper/Joey profile. But I ran into a show stopper. It seems that if I'm playing a movie for a bit, then stop it, and try and play another movie, I never get the second movie to play. It just sits with a progress bar at the bottom as if it's trying but it never comes through. Changing back to the Generic NTSC I don't have this issue. So getting better, but still seems buggy.
Many thanks for letting us know, tropez. Can you email us a set of logs when this problem happens using the Dish Hopper/Joey device profile? That way we can fix it. Please turn on logging in Mezzmo (see http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) and restart your Mezzmo server. (Don't forget to switch back to the Dish Hopper/Joey device profile for this test). Connect to Mezzmo server and then reproduce the problem you mention. When the problem occurs, stop your Mezzmo server and zip up the logs and send them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.
Last night you sent me a patch and I still was unable to play/stream any files to joey...
Thanks Don AKA Pain
I am still unable to stream with my Joey at all. Any help would be nice...
Thanks for letting us know. Peter is responding to all your support emails and providing you with updated device profiles for you to try. We will certainly try to help you get up and running. Please be a little patient as this device is a little strange in the way it communicates DLNA. So we may require a few more tests from you to nail down how this device works with DLNA.
Not a problem and thank you!. I wanted to ask in the open forum if any hopper users are connecting their Lan line to the Joey to make this work? From what Dish is telling me you do not need to. I will test it myself but was hoping for a answer before i go through the trouble.
Thanks
Should we be able to Fast Forward and Rewind while playing movies on the Hopper/Joey? When using the Generic NTSC Profile the movies stream fine (they aren't doing any transcoding, just streaming) but I when I hit FF it goes to the next movie in the list vs. fast forwarding. I've had to watch the first 25 minutes of the same movie due to it just ending (as if the movie was done) at like 25 minutes in.
