Can play some mkv files (.mpg gets attached on file name)
Posted: Sun Jan 31, 2021 1:59 am
I have a downloaded a new season of "American Dad".
The new episodes are not played on my samsung TV.
On the file names the extension ".mpg" is attached and no preview image is generated.
The other/older files are played just fine. Both (new and old files) have the video coded h264.
Does any one know how i can play them over UMS and why the "extension" .mpg gets attached?
VLC can play all files flawless, so i dont think there is a problem with the file itself.
Sample output from "Mediainfo"
Snippet of the logfile:
EDIT:
On my 55" Samsung TV from 2015/2016, the files starts playing, but have a heavy delay on audio/video.
The 43" from 2018? TV dont start playing at all.
The logfile is from the newer, 43" TV.
