Match file brand (ftyp) in profiles

[Former user]

In some cases it would be beneficial to be able to match file brand (ftyp) in the profile.

The following example would correct older Bravias (<2011 models) h264 behaviour - the only h264 brand working reliably seems to be "isom", other brands have multitude of issues and should be transcoded. {{{ <!-- Transcode all h264 video that's not of isom brand --> <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" maxVBitrate="17000" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="192"> <Matches container="avi" vCodec="h264" brand!="isom" /> <Matches container="matroska" vCodec="h264" brand!="isom" /> <Matches container="mp4" vCodec="h264" brand!="isom" /> </Video> }}} Further information: http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3303&p=24089#p23980

Matching file brand makes issue <<issue 412>> obsolete. In addition, there are potential uses for matching file brand in all profiles.

File brand can be extracted from "ffmpeg -i": {{{ [...] major_brand : isom [...] }}} About file brands: http://www.ftyps.com, http://www.mp4ra.org/filetype.html

If no ftyp (major, minor pair) is found it should default to:

In that case they should be read as if they contained an ftyp with major and compatible brand "mp41" (MP4 v1 - ISO 14496-1, Chapter 13).
