Thread: Movies crashes

  1. #1

    Default Movies crashes

    I already wrote in another thread about various problems.
    Now it's becoming increasingly worse with the crashes while watching a movie.
    Either it just stops and the TV will jump to the next movie, or ffmpeg.exe hangs with 100% CPU utilization. It is very annoying!
    The logs are so complex and include data from me, so I do not wish to provide. In addition, the log of mezzmoserver.exe always fast a few 100MB!
    It must not be the Mezzmo or ffmpeg forces with a problem the TV to abort the movie! When I play these movies with another player on the PC (like VLC), it runs without problems.
    As I see it has Mezzmo unfortunately still a lot of problems!
    I hope some things will improve with the next update but the last update has been a while, so I am hoping for big improvements.

    Well, we'd need the logs to fully understand the issue (you can rename your filenames in them if you wish), but it's possible that your CPU is not powerful enough to transcode on-the-fly (this is suggested by the 100% CPU usage) - what sort of CPU do you have and what is the FFmpeg information on the file you're trying to transcode? Also, which device and which device profile are you using? We've been working on optimizing transcoding and have lots of updated device profiles available to try if you send a message to support (at) conceiva (dot) com

    I can not play the last ~15min of many movies that are longer than ~1hr i have even re encoded one of the movies using a different program and it still hung in the same spot.

    Do you know if these movies are native for the device or have to be transcoded? I'd recommend contacting support (at) conceiva (dot) com and we'll sort it out. Please also mention which device you have and which device profile you are using.

    I have a Samsung LN32C550. I am using Samsung profile B. Profile C would not play avi's and profile A would hang after the first 20 seconds of movie, unless I paused for a few second at the beginning of each movie, then it would continue uninterrupted. I don't know if the hanging up at the end occurs in any profile other than profile Samsung B. Also, the server does not crash it just skips me to the next movie.

    Possibly it's transcoding and that could be too slow, that's why if you pause a bit, it'll play fine, but otherwise it'll skip to the next one. Can you please post FFmpeg information (in Mezzmo right-click on the file and use the "Get FFmpeg Information" command) on one of those AVIs so that I could check why they're not played using the C profile?

    I don't think it is getting ahead of the transcoding because if I jump to the spot in the movie and let it play from right before the crash it still does it. the FFmpeg info is below. Also the movie plays fine on my Asus o!play box on my old TV.

    Ok, that's not an AVI though, it's an MP4 and looking at it, both the B and C device profiles should pass it through to the TV natively. Can you please try Samsung's server (PCSM) and see if that plays this file? If it doesn't, then there's something wrong with file's encoding, the framerate or something in that area. If Samsung's server plays it, then we should as well. Let me know how that goes.

    The Samsung server will not play files from my network drive but I will move the file to my harddrive and try it again later this week. By the way, I know the file is not an AVI the Samsung C profile was chosen as the default for my TV by Mezzmo but it would not allow the TV to play the AVI files I had. The B profile worked for all my converted TV episode DVDs but crashed at the last 15min of each movie. Crazy.
