Ubuntu 18.04 & PS3 Failure to play

[atamariya]

Hi,

I have UMS 7.6.2 running on Ubuntu 18.04. I am unable to play any titles on the PS3. I keep getting "This content cannot be played. (800288E1). I created a test folder with one file only and tried to play this. Please find attached the zip with the debug log file, UMS.conf and mediainfo for the file being tested.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

This failure is because ffmpeg is failing to transcode. You can try the following command on command-line.

Code: Select all

/opt/ums-7.6.2/linux/ffmpeg64 -y -loglevel info -hwaccel auto -threads 1 -i /nfs/ums-user/Media/Test/test.mkv -map 0:V -map 0:a:0 -bufsize 166k -g 25 -qmax 7 -qmin 2 -ac 6 -ab 640k -ar 48000 -c:a ac3 -c:v mpeg2video -f vob /tmp/UMS-ums-user/ffmpegvideo_46_1543610628501

A quick fix is to remove "-bufsize 166k" option in FFMpegVideo.java. Let me know if that works. There's already an issue for this https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer ... ssues/1374

Hi,

I've reinstalled a system with 18.04 headless and I realise that all transcoding is failing. When I use VLC on a windows desktop, I am getting the following failure:

The system was installed using 18.04 server image with defaults and sshd, unzip, openjdk-8-jdk and mediainfo packages installed.

Any pointers/help?

Thanks,

This must be a different version from original post. Line 1090-1101 is

Code: Select all

				if (
					params.aid.getSampleRate() != params.mediaRenderer.getTranscodedVideoAudioSampleRate() &&
					configuration.isFFmpegSoX() &&
					!customFFmpegOptions.contains("--resampler")
				) {
					cmdList.add("-resampler");
					cmdList.add("soxr");
					cmdList.add("-precision");
					cmdList.add("33");
					cmdList.add("-cheby");
					cmdList.add("1");
