[Solved] h.265 on Samsung TVs

[dude373]

I have a UA46ES5600 that defaults to the Samsung-nonCD.conf and a UA46f5500 that defaults to the Samsung-CD.conf.
I am trying to play h.265 on them as h.264 and actually succeeded once by adding some code, but have since lost that setup.
Ex: suits.s05e07.720p.hdtv.hevc.x265.rmteam.mkv
Can you help me?

Try to create an specific profile for each TVs so you can tweak & optimize the settings. Follow http://www.universalmediaserver.com/faq ... erSupport1 (easier to start your own profile from any of the closer existing ones, ie copy and modify a Samsung series F and ES profile to your needs)

HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding or H.265) is one of the most important technologies to have emerged in the TV industry in the last decade. However, H.265/HEVC, as the newest codec has not been accepted by these 4K TVs yet. It is necessary for us to transcode H.265/HEVC videos for playback on 4K HD TV with a professional H.265/HEVC encoder/decoder

In other words use a program that converts the H265 file into a container the HDTV can play? UMS already does that so there's no need for a separate program.

I have an h6400 and made some tests with h265/hevc files and worked OK thru UMS, no transcoding required (it's preconfigured already in the profile BTW https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer ... H6400.conf).

Thanks. I replaced/added these lines to my config. Seems to work for h.265 on my Samsung 46f5500.

Supported = f:mpegps v:divx|h264|mjpeg|mp4|mpeg1|mpeg2|sor|vc1|vp6|wmv a:aac|aac-he|ac3|adpcm|dts|eac3|lpcm|mp3|wma m:video/mpeg
Supported = f:mpegts v:divx|h264|h265|mjpeg|mp4|mpeg1|mpeg2|sor|vc1|vp6|wmv a:aac|aac-he|ac3|adpcm|dts|eac3|lpcm|mp3|wma m:video/mpeg

MPEGTS-H265-AC3 H.265 (HEVC) AC-3 MPEG-TS Only FFmpeg outputs H.265, others will output H.264
MPEGTS-H265-AAC H.265 (HEVC) AAC MPEG-TS Only FFmpeg outputs H.265, others will output H.264

I know some 2016 Tizen-based Samsung models supports to play H.265 with MKV, MP4 or MPEGTS container.
