PS4 streaming stops at ~35 minutes

[Baelzar]

This is new. Been using UMS for years, PS3, PS4 (since the PS4 Media Player was released in June 2015) and never had this problem until recently. It happens every time now. I've always kept UMS updated. Logs attached.

Thanks in advance. I'll answer any questions as soon as I see them.

I've been getting the same issue for a long time now.

Still happening. Could it be some sort of DRM from the PS4? Some update Sony made?

For what it's worth, I have a PS4 with the latest firmware and the latest version of UMS, and I have experienced no such issue. I play mkv files that are longer than 35 minutes all the time. You're using the Media Library app, right? Are you transcoding?

I do have an issue with ffmpeg transcoding that causes me to play a file 2-3 times before it will finally start streaming. The first couple of times I try to play them all I get are the rotating PS symbols. Once it starts playing though, it plays fine.

I just recently started having this same issue(within the last 2 weeks or so). I suspect it's something in the latest PS4 software update(8.03) that's causing this for me.
