Mezzmo 5.1.1.0 issues

I have a Panasonic AS650 TV which plays all videos bar a couple of AVI formats - Divx & JPEG/MJPG ( from a wildlife camera ).

Because of the MJPG videos I had to switch on transcoding. Having done this numerous MKV videos suddenly needed transcoding to MPEGTS format whereas they were fine before.

Turned out that the audio content was 640kbps where the max bitrate in the prf files is 448kbps. Simply changing that max solved that problem.

This was in the PanasonicViera2013.prf and above. BUT no doubt a general issue though.

Before I solved this I had just installed 5.1.1.0 (over 4.1.3.0) so I thought I'd try the other prfs that might match my TV. There are 2 new files in DeviceProfiles - PanasonicViera2015UHD & PanasonicViera2016UHD but only the 2015 shows up in the dropdown options for my TV. Turns out that both have the same GUID & title.
Having changed the title & GUID in the 2016 version so it now functions correctly.

Both the above issues need correcting.

Hi,
thanks for reporting this, we have fixed the issues and will include the updated profiles in the final release of 5.1.2.0.

In a similar vein, in the drop down list of profiles there are two entries for WD TV Live (Gen 1) but no entry for a Gen 3. I have one of each and use the first listed Gen1 profile for the Gen 1, and use the Streaming Media Player profile for the Gen 3 both with no apparent problems. Just raising it for clarification.

Just installed 5.1.2.0 & not everything has been fixed.

You've corrected the UID in the PanasonicViera2016UHD but incorrectly amended the audio bitrates. You've incorrectly set the <bitrate> to 640000 but left the <maxbitrate> at 448000. Should be the other way round.

The PanasonicViera2015UHD is correct.

I found that with my TVs the PanasonicViera2014 was the best profile to use so again I've had to amend the maxbitrate to 640000.

I think that there must be numerous .prfs that should have the maxbitrate upped from 448000 to 640000.

Thanks, the 2015 profile was okay but the 2016 profile I had put the values in the wrong fields. 2014 TVs may only support up to 448000 kb/s so we will leave this as it is.
