FrostByte 5044 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Does the app support multipart movies? I ripped The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug in 3d which is on 2 disks. File names are as such: The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug (2013).3d.hsbs-part1.mkv The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug (2013).3d.hsbs-part2.mkv The web client recognizes that there are 2 parts, but I see nowhere in the Samsung app that it recognizes the second part much less how I would play the second part. Should the app play the second part automatically (that would be nice), or do you have to manually start the second part somehow? Or do I need to add a feature request? After playing part1 app stopped playing and sent me back to the info page for the movie Edit: pic from webclient showing additional part Edited February 20, 2015 by FrostByte 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaN 47 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) That was also tested from my side useing server version 3.0.5518.7; my multi-part content setup is like: Anime (Movies Types Content) \Bolt (2008)\ Bolt part1.mkv Bolt part2.mkv the content is displayed in Web client as the following: however, it's limited for playback to part1 only in sammy client; though the chapter limitation is common in both (web and app): It sounds good, if the same "Additional Parts" section is available in the client, which leads to part selection, the same way as chapter selection.

gbone8106 25 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) For multi part movies, like the hobbit etc, I always just used mkvmerge, and used append. It will combine it to one movie. easier than switching to part 2 however you do it. Edited February 26, 2015 by gbone8106 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5044 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) I've gotten a return error code 1 - "playback issues with resulting file" twice now on the Hobbit 3d when appending. Log says mismatched private codecs used on video tracks. Output mkv file appears to play fine in vlc though so I'll give it a try.

gbone8106 25 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I believe I got that also, but playback is fine, I have both hobbit 3d extended movies combined with this method 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chessdragon136 677 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Hi All, I appreciate this is quite important to some of you - however due to the way the player is coded and how the server handles additional parts, this is not easy for me to implement. I will of course look at it, but its difficult 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
