    We have not created a specific device profile for aVia media player app as yet. You mention that 'Generic Device (NTSC)' did not work. In what way didn't work? Browsing/playing//etc. Please turn on logging (http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) and re-start your Mezzmo server. Connect to Mezzmo from aVia media player and browse a playlist and try to play some videos. When it fails, then stop your Mezzmo media server and exit Mezzmo. Zip up all the log files and send them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com for analysis.

    I have discovered that installing the Skifta app on the Kindle Fire and also VLC or Moboplayer apps for decoding works pretty well in conjunction with Mezzmo for just about any file format needed. Much better imho than aVia. The only ones I have trouble with are 1080p mkv files which is to be expected seeing as the Kindle is HD.

    Neither VLC nor Moboplayer are available without sideloading - which is beyond the capabilities of the vast majority of Kindle Fire owners (Amazon sandboxed the Fire for many reasons). Skifta is in the Amazon appstore - VLC / Moboplayer / Rockplayer are not.

    Instead of trying to "work around" the issue, why don't you (Mezzmo) just make a device profile for a "stock" Kindle Fire? None of the current profiles really work all that well with a Kindle . . .

    Happy to do so. We'll need some information to do this:
    • Create a set of logs so we can see the 'stock' Kindle Fire connect to Mezzmo. Turn on logging (see http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) and restart your Mezzmo server. Connect to Mezzmo using your 'stock' Kindle Fire and browse a few playlists/folders and try to play a few files. Stop your Mezzmo server and exit Mezzmo. Zip up the logs and send them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.
    • Tell us (or provide a link to) the video, music and photo formats that the Kindle Fire supports via DLNA/streaming


    After we get this information, we'll create a Kindle Fire device profile for you to test.
