Hi Dennis,
I've got Mezzmo 2.3.2.0 trial running on an i3-540 - Windows 7 Home Premium - SP1.
When I browse Mezzmo shares from a DLNA player, such as WDTV Live or XBMC (Windows) running on another PC, Mezzmo serves up the files natively, without any transcoding or remuxing, as it should, since these players can handle these test files natively.
However, when I use a DLNA DMC controller app on the iPhone or Android tablet, such as those listed below, to push a file to the WDTV or XBMC (being used as a DLNA renderer in this case), Mezzmo transcodes the files that the renderers would otherwise play natively when used as a player. It appears that Mezzmo thinks it needs to transcode to a format compatible with the iPhone or Android, when in reality, it should just pass the file along to the renderer, untouched.
iPhone apps tested:
PlugPlayer (very slow and unreliable with PlugPlayer in particular, IMO the best DLNA app for the iPhone)
Media:Connect
Eyecon Troller
SmartStor Fusion Stream
ZappoTV
LivingMediaPlayer
ThreeSums Lite
Android apps tested:
UPnPlay
Skifta
Twonky
AndroMote
Eyecon Troller
Sitecom aMedia Control
SharkMote Free
Is there a way to get Mezzmo to adhere to the proper device profile of the appropriate renderer when used in conjunction with a controller, while still retaining the ability to transcode to iPhone- or Android-friendly formats when using those apps as a player (and not a controller)? Thanks in advance for your help.
Best,
Chris
