    Default Samsung ES type (UA40ES6200) "Not Supported File Format" for some mp4 files

    Hi,

    I am using Mezzmo latest release with my Samsung UA40ES6200 TV.
    Some of the MP4 file format are not working and the TV report not supported file format.
    Other MP4 are working with no problem without transcoding
    I noticed that even for the unsupported files, Mezzmon send them with no transcoding to the TV

    The TV recognized automatically as Samsung E type.

    The FFmpeg info for that file:

    How can I edit the device profile to support transcoding for that specific mp4 format, while others will still be with no transcoding.
    BTW - I have played with the device profile causing it to transcode all mp4, but the transcoded file (mkv) was not playable as well, I guess the transcoding parameters for that action should be tune as well.

    I am moving from serviio, I had no problem with this file over there, it was transcoded on the fly during play.

    Will appreciate your support on this.

    The problem is most likely the h264 level. Try this:

    1. Stop your Mezzmo server and exit Mezzmo (Windows) app.
    2. Using Windows Explorer, go to the DeviceProfiles folder (see http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...ofiles-located).
    3. Using a text-based editor like Notepad, edit the SamsungE.prf file.
    4. Change the following line:

      <avcontainer id="mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2" name="h264aac" mimetype="video/mp4" encode="0" supportschunked="0">

      to

      <avcontainer id="mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2" name="h264aac" mimetype="video/mp4" encode="0" supportschunked="0" level="41">
    5. Save the changes. Run Mezzmo app and start your Mezzmo server. Try streaming the video now.

    True, the problem is around the h264 level, the serviio also transcode each h264 above 4.2 and it works over there.

    Now for the Mezzmo, I have made the change and now there is transcoding activity, but the transcoded file is still not supported:

    It could be the encoding of the original video itself that may be causing the problem. By default, Mezzmo will re-mux compatible streams within the original video file to the transcoded video (the reason for re-muxing is for fast transcoding). But re-muxing may transfer the badly encoded or incompatible stream and stop playback as you are getting. As a test, right-click on the video and click 'Pre-transcode Files'. On the Pre-transcode Files dialog, select your TV and click 'Choose Files'. On the Transcoding Formats dialog, select the bolded format and select the 'Force full transcode of all channels' checkbox. Click OK to start transcoding. Wait until transcoding has completed and then try streaming the video now on your TV. Let us know if it plays OK.

    Will do what you suggested, but looking at the transcoded file is your first suggestion I can see the the h264 level is still high (5)

    That might explain why is is still not showing, since the video stream is still lat a higher level

    I have started your pre-transcoding option, it is taking a lot of time....

    Is there any configuration for transcoding the video stream level for level 4.2 and not the only thecontainer.
    As seen from my last message the container did transcode to mkv level 4.2 but the internal video stream remains on level 5, and that might cause the file still be unsupported

    having Serviio as the reference, I know that is been done there and it is very quick

    Thanks for your support, much appreciated!

    Well, It took 2 hours to transcode 23 min of video, I guess this is not realistic....anyhow it crashed near the end so I do not have been able to test the output file

    But...

    I have found what serviio is doing that allows the file to be transcoded and screen on the fly:

    For each video stream level higher then 4.2 they are running transcoding as below:

    ffmpeg -analyzeduration 10000000 -i input -y -c:v mpeg2video -pix_fmt yuv420p -qscale:v 1 -g 15 -c:a ac3 -b:a 64k -ac 2 -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -sn -f mpegts output.mpg

    How can I modify the configuration for running such transcoding (which I know it works) each time h264 level is higher then 4.2?

    Or can you suggest any other online transcoding faster enough to support streaming?

    Thanks
    Avi
