    Default PS3 Playback Issues

    Hi, i'm using the latest v4, but I had this issue before. Think I figured out a workaround that worked in v3, but doesn't seem to work in v4. Don't remember what I tried.

    I do have a general question about the PS3 profiles, whats the difference between PS3 and PS3 (compatible)?

    My main issue, is I have a bunch of MKV files which the PS3 doesn't support. My server is not fast enough to transcode them.

    The video and audio codecs inside the MKV container the PS3 does support. So if I re-muxed them to a MP4 container they would play fine.

    Is there anyway to get Mezzmo to see my MKV files and serve them like there in a Mp4 container for the ps3?

    The other files are basically the same.

    If I manually re-mux the file into a MP4 container the PS3 plays them perfectly.

    Skipping over another question are we? what is the difference between PS3 and PS3 (Compatible)?

    Can't seem to find it explained anywhere.

    There is not too much difference between the two device profiles and we can probably remove the "PS3 (Compatible)" profile. We recommend you use the "Sony PlayStation 3".

    Mezzmo should be transcoding your MKV on-the-fly to MPEG-TS with the h264 and AAC being re-muxed into the new MPEG-TS container.

    Same issues here but I changed to Playstation 3 (Compatible) and the issues stopped..

    That's what V3 was doing, transcoding on the fly.

    V4 doesn't seem to be. Maybe I had it set at PS3 (Compatible).

    Will have to test that later, and report back.

    That's why I was wondering what the difference was.
