Panasonic ffwd rwd

Thanks Subjunk for your release of UMS.
One problem remains which I have never been able to resolve. Rendering to a Viera Plasma G20 when streaming avi, ts or mpeg files ffwd & rwd is either unresponsive or crashes mencoder and java leaving a huge memory leak.
This has been present on PMS for yonks and the last working version I have is Sharkhunter PMS Build SHB24 using PMS 1.40.0.
Any clues / ideas what needs to be done?
Ta.

Hi toontoon, maybe SharkHunter can help since his build is the one that worked. I'll let him know about this thread

Hi,
Somewhere after SHB27 (I think) PMS rewrote the whoule buffering scheme. I then found out that my BRAVIA wasn't found of how bffers growed etc. In UMS there is a conf option called "buffer_max" set this to true to make UMS grow the buffer to it's max size at start of transcoding. Otherwise upload some logs..
Prefably a SHB24 log set and then a UMS log set

Thanks Sharkhunter. Will do so you can see the differences.
Just thinking about this (because it is driving me
) is UMS transcoding where PMS was not. For example any avi file on later SHB builds and now UMS begins after a "please wait" message (Viera message) whereas on the old SHB24 build a percentage bar appears and the file plays once 100% reached.
Will also play about with the buffer setting and report back.

Hi Sharkhunter,
On UMS I set buffer_max = true which when failed (see attached debug.log). It actually crashed mencoder and UMS once trying to ffwd through the stream.
Will send a debug.log of the same file successfully seeking ffwd next post.

Here is another example of UMS debug.log when trying to seek ffwd during an avi. This is without buffer_max set but with force framerate parsed from FFmpeg set to true.
Still failed and crashed.

For whatever reason I can't set the debug level correctly - therefore pointless uploading a debug.log which doesn't shed any light on why this works in earlier versions.
How can I get the same level of debug in the working SHB build?

Find this section (in the logback.xml)
Code: Select all
<appender name="debug.log" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
and add (if missing)
Code: Select all
<filter class="ch.qos.logback.classic.filter.ThresholdFilter">
<level>ALL</level>
</filter>
To make sure uppdate the
also.
This should be the same on UMS/PMS/PMS_SHB

Hi Sharkhunter,
logback.xml attached as it appears to be setup correctly.

Hello,
Finally been able to post a debug.log with correct ffwd and rwd on an avi file as discussed.
Any ideas how this can get fixed in the later versions.
