Just play the damn video :)

Post by matrixebiz »

Hello, trying to create my own conf but not sure what to have in the [Supported video formats]: section to just play all videos.

If i leave it with no renderer and have UMS select Unknown Renderer then the video play fine so what can I use in the conf for [Supported video formats]: that the Unknown Renderer uses so I can just play the damn movie instead of my DVD player saying unsupported format :(

I think the unknown renderer just streams everything so try adding every file extension to the stream list on the conf file

Ok and what line would that be called?

Trying to modify the video conversion section but cannot find the correct settings;
Supported = f:mpegps|mpegts v:mpeg1|mpeg2 a:ac3|dts|lpcm|mpa|mp3 m:video/mpeg
Supported = f:mpegts v:h264|vc1 a:ac3|dts|dtshd|truehd|aac|lpcm|mpa|mp3 m:video/vnd.dlna.mpeg-tts
Supported = f:mp4|m4v v:mp4|h264 a:ac3|dts|dtshd|truehd|aac|lpcm|mpa|mp3 m:video/mpeg
######### NON-US MODELS: CHANGE THE FOLLOWING 2 MIME-TYPES TO m:video/divx
Supported = f:avi|divx v:divx|mp4 a:ac3|lpcm|mpa|mp3 m:video/mpeg
Supported = f:mkv v:mp4|divx|h264 a:ac3|dts|dtshd|truehd|aac|lpcm|mpa|mp3 m:video/vnd.dlna.mpeg-tts

Is there another line to add in the conf to just stream everything without any conversion like what the Unknown Renderer option does? Deleting this section still doesn't play the avi, gives the File not supported error on my player.

Thanks

You can try setting the following lines:

MediaInfo = false
StreamExtensions = avi
