Aspect Ratio Incorrect & Rewind/Fast Forward go to beginning of video

Hi,

 

I was so pleased to finally find Media Browser for my iMac and be able to playback MKV and AVI files that Plex and others refused to play however I have an issue with the aspect ratio and rewind/forward on my Panasonic Viera TX-55AX630B 4K TV.

 

Movies requiring letterbox format in 16:9 do not have the letterbox and are stretched out horizontally and if you try to rewind or fast forward a video it starts from the beginning again although the timer says you've moved back/forward.

 

I checked that the Panasonic Viera profile is in use by renaming its display name, so I know thats set right.

 

Is anyone experiencing these issues with their Panasonic TV's? Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

 

All the best,

 

Rich

Try this:

 

Go to DLNA > Profiles > Panasonic Viera > Playback Settings

 
Set Max streaming bitrate to 21000000.
 
Or, in Windows (not sure of the OS X path), %appdata%\MediaBrowser-Server\config\dlna\user and paste the following in a file called Custom Viera.xml

dirkdigs would still need to remove dca from the profile you posted, do to that model not supporting DTS.

 

Edit - model listed in another post.
