    FFmpeg doc: http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-doc.html

    There is a possibility to pass number of CPU cores to FFmpeg to work with (-threads) - get in Java: Runtime.availableProcessors() - it can be used even for other FFmpeg operations

    For transcoding buffer look at FileChannel - should support functionality for FFWD, REW.

    Candidates for target profiles: SD (MPEG_PS_PAL or MPEG_TS_SD_EU), HD (AVC_TS_MP_HD_AC3, AVC_TS_MP_HD_AAC_MULT5, ...)

    Would be very nice indeed, especially with subtitle-support like ps3 media sever has.

  3. Petr Nejedly reporter

    there will be no subtitles transcoded into the stream unfortunately, FFmpeg doesn't support it and I cannot distribute mplayer because of the licence

    Not sure the exact cause with 0.4, but everything is showing up as Unsupported Data on my PS3 with 0.4

    Log is full of this:

    22:30:20,346 WARN [MediaResourceRetrievalStrategy] Cannot retrieve media information for file Video.File.wmv: Video Video.File.wmv is not supported by any supported DLNA profile

    ^ For content that worked before as well.

    Derby.log is sitting at 225mb all of a sudden as well.

    the log is set to DEBUG for this beta, you can delete it if it's too long, it'll get recreated. Provide "ffmpeg -i Video.File.wmv".

    It had my entire library reading as Unsupported data? Not sure. When I turned off transcoding, it seemed to restore normal function with the exception of a select few files that worked in 0.31.

    Thanks, looks like the new version of FFmpeg that I use now identifies AVI's a little bit differently. Will fix for beta 2.
