Well I tried the modified profile sent to me by Dennis, and neither the AVI files or the mts files play correctly. The modified version of the "Bravia KDL Japan" profile was sent to me by "Paul" of Conceiva in early December, modified to pass through mp4s. That profile apparently handles the AVI files differently that the profile you sent me yesterday Dennis, since with that latest profile they show up at just mpg and not mpg2, and they take much longer to start playing and become jittery while transcoding. Maybe you can look at those two profiles and examine what is different about AVI handling? The settings for that section of the KDL Japan profile works much better for the AVI files I have, which are from earlier Canon and Fuji cameras in standard definition.
For the mts files (FFmpeg data below in this thread), with the new profile you sent yesterday loaded, the videos will not play at all. They show up on the list, and show up identified as AVC which I think they should, but when I try to play them they hang up and do nothing that I can tell. There must be something about how that stream is being presented to the Sony TV device that it doesn't like. My TV can play those same files directly via the usb connector, and also when streamed via Tversity, so it must be possible.
On a positive note, the MP4s still play correctly and are not transcoded, so that part is fine.
I also tried inserting the code you included in this thread into the KDL Japan profile sent to me by Paul, but that didn't seem to have any effect at all. There must be something not right in that code....
Thanks for you help!
