DLNA video settings for LG TV (47LM4600)
« on: October 11, 2013, 12:04:00 pm »

I've been chasing my tail the last week trying to get 1080 video on my LG TV (Model 47LM4600-UC).  Server is running on i7 870 2.93 GHz w/ 8GB RAM.  TV is connected to the network via a Netgear WNCE2001.  I am the only network on the channel, and I can speed test 25 Mbps on my phone right next to the TV.  I believe the TV is limited to 20 Mbps, but I do not think speed is the issue.

MPEG2-TS in all settings gives me an Invalid File error.  I have tried enabling mimetype override with DLNA override set to MPEG_PS, MPEG_PS_NTSC, MPEG_PS_PAL, MPEG_TS_SD_NA, and H.264/AVC to trick it, but nothing works.

H264-TS "works," in that the videos play, but many .avi and .mkv files show corrupted, and all videos stop playing after ~30-seconds.  I would think that I am not limited by processing power or bandwidth, but maybe I am?

MPEG-TS DVD PAL and DVD NTSC all work, but limit picture quality.  The best option is actually MPEG-TS PAL high bandwidth (even though I'm in the US), but it still limits me to 720.

Any suggestions on what I should try next?  Or an in order TS guide (been a lot of trial and error so far)?  Is it possible to add a MPEG-TS PAL very high bandwidth option to take it to 1080?

Make sure you have the latest build installed.  It's 19.0.60.  It's at the top of the MC19 board.

Running 19.0.96 and no change on this. 

Is there a trick to getting MPEG2-TS to work?  Or is it possible to add a MPEG-TS PAL very high bandwidth option?

I have the same problem.  See thread below this one called "JRiver streaming 720p instead of 1080p??"  Even though I paid for JRiver 19, I ended up downloading the free program PLEX and everything works fine with 1080.

See this thread as well.. http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=85893 Im somewhat sure that the DNLA settings are not working as I have it set to use original and I can see that the CPU is doing "something" that forces CPU usage to over 90%...  I wish Bob or someone would chime in here...

Antivirus programs can use CPU like that.

While I would agree the top task in the task manager is jriver..  This unit also has no AV or even security essentials enabled as it is only a media center (no browsing ect on it)

Here's hope for a New Year:

Is there a trick to getting MPEG2-TS to work?  Or is it possible to add a MPEG-TS PAL very high bandwidth option?
