Update: After stopping and disabling the uPnP service and the SSDP service on the machine hosting Mezzmo, things seems to be much more stable. I left a TV playing a whole folder of videos and after 6...

Excellent - glad you're sorted Rog.

In Tools -> Maintain Library, at the bottom is the schedule setting.

Ok, thanks Peter - that should help me on my quest to get a rock solid media server. I'll report back with any other findings on my current tests.

A quick question for you Peter - are you familiar with Wireshark? If so and I'm able to capture a full network traffic log in Wireshark for a few minutes leading up to a disconnection, would that...

Interesting, thanks Peter. That is indeed the IP address of the Mezzmo server, I assigned a fixed IP address to it for remote access purposes.

After doing some digging, M-Search seems to be...

There's some additional information that may help to trace my issue. After posting the above, I left a different TV in another room playing a video. It too disconnected after a time, but was then...

Ah, I went and bought a new router anyway as the lack of diagnostic features available on my ISP's was limiting. Some further information for you:

- There is now no network cable, all of my...

Thanks for the reply Peter.

Unfortunately, my router doesn't have uPnP as a configurable option. If you think that's a likely cause then I may look at purchasing a different router.

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can help me - I'm experiencing fairly regular disconnects during playback. This is happening on two separate TVs, and also happens whether they are connected to the...

Thanks Peter. A couple of further questions if I may:

1. Which format would be best in this case as those that refer to MP4 are "matroska (FAKE_MP4)" (highlighted in bold as a preferred format for...

Hi all.

I have a friend with a Sony Bravia TV using the built-in browser to connect remotely to my media server. Opening a movie shows the MEDIA SERVER STATUS as "Transcoding: 100%" but when...

Hi Peter,

Just thought I'd let you know that the Samsung M profile seems to work much better - all videos I played worked fine with transcoding turned off.

Thanks for the quick response,...

Hi Peter.

Thanks - email sent just now. Any feedback that I have I'll post here in this thread for you.

Frantic.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the reply, I'll consider something like that.

Out of interest, does the Mezzmo app (Android/iOS) support that kind of requirement or is the data also presented in a fixed...

Hi all,

Is there a way to customise the details displayed on the web interface? I have it all working great and my library is shared with friends and family, but I'd like to at least be able to...

Thanks for the the suggestion.

However, transcoding is always off for all devices as I prefer to have video formats that are natively supported by all devices where possible. The new TV supports...

Hi guys,

I have a new Samsung UE32M5520 (2018 model) which Mezzmo is recognising as "Samsung 5 Series (32)" and is using the Device Profile "Samsung C". This seems to mean that many natively...

Thanks for the quick response Peter. It turns out that whilst the settings in the main setup of the TV were correct, one of the pesky children had changed the picture mode on the TV whilst viewing a...

Hi all,

I have an mkv video (FFmpeg info below) that is getting stretched vertically on my Samsung E TV, i.e. there are no black bars at the top and bottom. I believe this has started happening...

Thanks Peter.

I've asked a couple of questions recently that you've suggested may be reasonable additions to functionality. Do you need me to raise them again in the feature requests forum or will...

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the quick response. That would be a good thing to have as part of a future upgrade, thank you. When are you guys planning on releasing the next version of Mezzmo?

Thanks,...

Hi stefanos,

I saw this behaviour a few months ago and tracked it down to a setting in the Media Devices page. I had unticked "Allow all new devices to connect to Mezzmo" thinking I'd be a little...

Hi.

When my family access my media server through the web interface and select the "Download Original File" option from the Media Properties page, the files are always renamed with a "taz" prefix,...

Hi all,

Is it possible to access my Netflix content/account through Mezzmo? I figured that the most likely option would be via a channel plug-in but the available list doesn't include Netflix.
