[samsung c650] playing film stops, mezzmo/tv jumps to next file

**razor** · 06-10-2010, 06:43 AM

Hi!

It's me again

I'm playing film thru Mezzmo to my TV - Samsung LE46C650, after 10-20 seconds, film stops and Mezzmo plays next file.
File is transcoded realtime (with speed of >35fps, so there is no 'buffer underrun'.
ffmpeg can transcode that film without problems (i can run ffmpeg.exe without problems with that film)
Maybe it's a problem with TV (tv stops responding etc., then Mezzmo plays next file) ?

I'm sending you logs by email.

Regards,
razor

Hi,

Thanks for the logs.

One thing to try is to play around with the "contentlength" parameter in the device profile. It takes values from 0 to 3 (inclusive) and even 4, but that requires a bit more modification of the device profile itself. Can you please try changing the contentlength from 0 to 3 (restart the server after each change of course) and see if that helps?

Hi,
I am evaluating Mezzmo software and I am experiencing the same issue described by razor on my Samsung UE40C6500UP TV set.
It is limited to "some" mkv files and this behaviour is really annoying. I experienced the same issue using Samsung PC Share Manager and that was a reason for looking to an alternative software. I was trying to apply your advice on contentleght parameter but I do not find it! The only parameters associated to "Samsung C" device profile are: connection speed, max video size and video bitrate.
Do I have to edit a configuration file?
Thank you in advance!
Roberto

Hi Roberto,

Yes, the "contentlength" is inside the SamsungLA.prf file located in the DeviceProfiles folder (see this thread for its location: http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...ofiles-located). If you would like specific instructions on how to edit and change this, please let me know and I'll post them here.
