Panning jerky, and why no FF ?

[Paul]

Gotcha. I wasn't entirely sure, since the device profile I looked at for reference didn't have any video format set as preferredtranscoded but did had a baseline.

When you guys actually get some time (after the next release), it would be interesting if the device profile format could be documented (the comments present in most profiles are helpful, but still sometimes confusing a bit). It might help people who want to get more tweaking done "under the hood".

Yes, we've spent some time cleaning up the device profiles and the updated ones should see the world with the next update. The device profiles format is still subject to change, with things being added/removed, so I'm not sure about any official documentation at this stage, but please do feel free to ask me questions regarding any advanced tweaking.

Interesting - we'll take a look here. Is WMS configured with default settings? Is transcoding done to disk or memory?
Totally as it came from the box ! transcoding is done onto another partition of the same hdd ! (this is how I have set it... but initially it was the same partition.

I understand now Is this on transcoded files only? Possibly the bitrate is not high enough (since the frame rate appears to be correct). Is it possible for you to send me the original file so that I could investigate it here?
Appears to be transcoded - most of (if not all !) my files are NOT mpeg2 (native format of TV, as you know)
Which file would you like ? If you mean the file I was viewing, then its 200 Mb !

The original one that you were viewing (in whichever format it's in). Can you please use something like Megaupload/Rapidshare/Dropbox/etc... to upload it so we can test it here? That would let me see exactly what the problem is.

Heres that file:

Now running WMS and mezzmo side by side, and the jerkyness has gone when played on WMS !!!!
So I assume its NOT the file ?

Fingers crossed you fix these niggles, Mezzmo would corner the market !

[Paul]

Thanks for the file!

Yes, I believe it's related to the network issue we're fixing at the moment. Hopefuly the fix is not too far away - thanks for your patience!

Downloaded 218, and the jerkiness is still there

Will there be a solution any-time soon PLEASE ?


And the last two fixes you sent me...(profile for Sony TV and server) - do these need to be applied again ?

Thanks

[Paul]

We've got an updated device profile for the Bravia here to optimize some transcoding issues (MPEG4/h264 related), so if your file has such a video stream, please send a message to support (at) conceiva (dot) com and I'll send you an updated device profile to try.

Total hair loss time !!!!! 218 is now VERY unstable... getting errors on the TV "cannot access server" and "file not found" :-( and the Sony profile you sent me stops it dead, with "server not found" AAARRRGGHHHHHH

[Paul]

Do you see an error message box from FFmpeg on the PC by any chance?

Please turn on logging (see this thread: http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging), then try to get that error and once it happens, stop the server and send the logs to support.
