    Hi Chris,

    We did find and fix a bug in Mezzmo v3.3.0.0 that could be causing your slow transcoding speeds. We did have a similar problem with our Viera TVs here. Please upgrade to Mezzmo v3.3.1.0. After upgrading, go to the Media Devices dialog and edit your Panasonic Viera TV. On the Device Settings dialog, go to the Advanced tab and click the Default Settings button. Click OK to save your changes and now try to stream a few files to your TV. Let us know if that is better. Hopefully, there is either no transcoding at all or transcoding is much faster.

    Sorry Paul - after upgrading Mezzmo crashed. When I went to the profiles drop-down list, it was blank for all devices. 'Default Settings' in the 'Advanced' tab would not let the settings be entered because no device profile could be entered. I have had to shut-down Mezzmo.

    Never straight forward, is it?

    Cheers Paul,

    Chris

    P.S. There was a large error log & 'Crash.dmp' file generated. I'll try and forward them to you, when I've found the link!

    Hi Chris,

    It seems the upgrade did install correctly. So download the full installer from our web site - http://www.conceiva.com/downloads and run it. It will prompt you to do a Repair and click Yes. Hopefully after that, your fileset should be fine. Make sure you stop your Mezzmo server and exit the Mezzmo application (if running) before running the installer.

    Okay - it's doing some library building stuff now.

    The 'repair' option didn't work (same crashing problem) so I uninstalled Mezzmo and re-installed it, which seems to have worked. Of course, I'll have to re-enter all the settings and stuff now - another all-day session! - but at least it's going okay so far.

    I'll let you know how I get on.

    Cheers Paul,

    Chris

    Morning Paul - I've let Mezzmo settle down overnight and it seems to have done it's library maintenance. Unfortunately, it has not improved; indeed, I seem to be back to square one! (Videos stuttering, several not recognised...)

    I'm not sure where the crash logs are stored but since I've had to uninstall Mezzmo, maybe they've been deleted? (I did submit a crash log & error log yesterday.)

    On booting up this morning, I noted new folders listed in the Mezzmo folder tree for 'Videos', 'Music' & 'Pictures'. These have never been present before and are all empty (& useless since they're in 'C/Users/Administrator/Pictures' (etc.) where there is no disk space). Did Mezzmo create these folders? Can I just delete them?

    Again, many thanks for your help Paul. Forgive me for feeling jaded & tired now - it's Saturday and I've been messing with this for days!

    Cheers,

    Chris

    P.S. Mezzmo seems to have adjusted the connection speeds in Device Settings to 100Mbps by itself. I'll leave it there as you mentioned to do that anyway.

    Hi Chris,

    Please get the latest installer from our web site (http://www.conceiva.com/downloads) and run it. It will prompt you to Repair, and click Yes. This will update your Mezzmo program fileset. We did find a bug after releasing v3.3.1.0 & fixed it; it does relate to the problems you mention. After repairing has completed, run Mezzmo and go to the Media Devices dialog. Edit your device and on the Device Settings dialog, go to the Advanced tab. Click the Default Settings button. Next, go to the Transcoding tab and delete your transcoded files. Click OK to save your changes. This should correct any issues you were having. Try streaming now.

    Wow, even on Saturday! You're a gem.

    I'll let you know how I get on...

    Well Paul, I've done what you said above (updated to 'new' version of 3.3.1.0): now my TV & Xbox cannot see Mezzmo at all. They can see the WHS connection, but not the Mezzmo one.

    Looks like I'll be back on Monday then...

    Thanks again for your help.

    Cheers,

    Chris

    Angry

    Of course, starting the media server would help...

    However, everthing is much the same - videos stuttering or 'Cannot read file'. Videos which cannot be played may still be previewed & ID okay, but not always. Newest FFmpeg (for 8 second video: 'cannot read file'):

    Would it be possible to download a v2.x.x? (Sorry (!), but it's just I had fewer problems with earlier Mezzmos - except no option to disable the auto-updater.)

    I'm off until Monday now, but thanks for your continued help with this Paul.

    Cheers,

    Chris
