Cannot stream mp4 file to PS3
Hey,
I tried to stream an MP4 file, codec H264 MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1) 960x540 fps 29. Audio: MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a) to my PS3, but it just spits back "Data defect" and then marks the file as invalid (thumbnail disappears). I can stream many other movies with UMS to the PS3, but not this one. I suspect it's a format thing, and I may be able to "handbrake the file" into another format.
I can stream the file with no problem directly to my Nexus 7, so things tend to point towards the PS3 ... I just thought UMS transcoded stuff so that files the PS3 didn't eat could be converted into something it could eat?
I attached trace logfiles and requested by SubJunk et al here on the forums many times.
Hope you can help. I can add that I tried on all versions of UMS I can download, and it runs on Windows (obviously if you see the logs) The change log said:

That sounds like what I got, but how do I enable it? I'm using v4 clean install.Added a new transcoding option to allow H.264 video with AAC audio

Hi CaptainMolyneux, welcome to the forum 
The debug log needs to be made after you reproduce the bug (try to play the file), otherwise it gives us no information about it

Re: Cannot stream mp4 file to PS3
See.. that's the strange part. I did.
It's like the PS3 just gives up on the mp4 file and I do not see any errors in the trace either. I'll try to reproduce it again, but I suspect same result. It may not even be UMS related, but perhaps we can find a UMS workaround to faulty PS3's?
I'll get back in this thread.
Cheers.
