UMS 7.6.1 - WD TV Live - MKV

[pkroll]

Follow is one of the failed files:

(1999) Star Wars - Episode I - Die dunkle Bedrohung_[deu,eng].mkv

[SubJunk]

Here is a test build for you, please let me know if it works: http://www.spirton.com/uploads/UMS/UMS- ... 78e745.exe

If it still fails, it would be good to know a MKV file that does work so I can compare them in the logs

[pkroll]

Installed Test build from you.

Same problem...

"(1999) Star Wars - Episode I - Die dunkle Bedrohung_[deu,eng].mkv" does NOT play.

"(1983) Star Wars - Episode VI - Die Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter {Special Edition}_[deu,eng].mkv" does play fine.

Added new log zip.

Any news about my bug? I uploaded the current / wished log zip...

It seems to me that the problem is in the WDTVLive.conf. There are lines

Code: Select all

Supported = f:mkv             m:video/x-matroska
SupportedInternalSubtitlesFormats = SUBRIP

which mean that all video and audio formats are supported for container MKV which is obviously not true. That is why the "(1999) Star Wars - Episode I - Die dunkle Bedrohung_[deu,eng].mkv" does NOT play because it is streamed not transcoded. I am not sure if e.g.

Code: Select all

DTS audio format

is supported by the WD TV Live.
The second "(1983) Star Wars - Episode VI - Die Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter {Special Edition}_[deu,eng].mkv" is transcoded because internal subtitles are in Vobsub format and that is why it is playing well.
To fix it the line

Code: Select all

Supported = f:mkv             m:video/x-matroska

should be canged to something like

Code: Select all

Supported = f:mkv    a:aac-lc|he-aac|ac3|adpcm|eac3|lpcm|mp3|mpa|opus|vorbis|wma         m:video/x-matroska

and maybe add also video formats.
I am not sure which video and audio formats are really supported so it must be tuned up.

@valib:

I am not sure, if i understand you correctly. I don't have this problems in UMS 7.5.0 and before. UMS 7.6.0 and later has this problems. Hmm

[pkroll]

I installed UMS Download 8.0.0 ALPHA 1.

I checked the files again and the same happened. These above specific files doesn't play.

so i changed "WesternDigital-WDTVLive.conf" with this below line like you suggested. Same problem.



Supported = f:mkv a:aac-lc|he-aac|ac3|adpcm|eac3|lpcm|mp3|mpa|opus|vorbis|wma m:video/x-matroska



I can only repeat myself again: This problem is since 7.6.0.
7.5.0 and before was no problem.

[pkroll]

Well, i see there seem to be some trouble about the bug.
So i will stick to 7.5.0 where is no problem about playing MKV's.

Thank you very much for your kind support dudes!
