chessdragon136 677 Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks for the app works great on MKV files. Other than the inability to play DVD rips Video_TS folders.

gcw07 347 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I'm assuming it is transcoding. If so, I'm guessing what is there now as far as folder rip support is all you will get. That is unless ffmpeg improves support for folder rips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With limited support for folder rips on the server due to ffmpeg limiting support, what is done now is probably as best as it will get. BTW this was back to Jeff's post about additional folder rip support for DVD rips. What is there is probably as best as there will be unless ffmpeg improves.

So while you can and I'm sure you will add support for transcoding in this, folder rip support is still going to be hit and miss. It can work sometimes great and other times not at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokey7722 12 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Looks like my EH5300 will not allow me to enter an IP to install the app when on the "develop" user. It claims a user exists already and uses that, but never displays a Settings option or allows the blue D button to do anything. My D8000 worked perfect and installed fine and loads up. But as Smaky said, I get the initial page to load although I can't browse TV or Movies. The menu is listed up top but I can't get it to select up there. It selects the resume and unwatched episodes only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c0m3r 95 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Just a quick request from me. When setting up the IP and port for the server, could the IP entry be changed to allow the entry of a host name as I use dynamic DNS due to not having a static IP and dont want to have to continually change the server IP at startup.

rickster53 27 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) First I entered the IP address 82.45.82.57, and then I selected User Application Synchronization. After a couple of seconds, that error message is displayed. Since this is working for others, I'm guessing this must be some problem with how my network is configured. Ie. I have my main router in one area of the house and that bridges to another router in the house where the TV and additional devices are connected. But as I mentioned, I can "DLNA Push To" the TV from MB3 and Samsung Allshare also works in this networked configuration, so I'm puzzled... Appreciate the support though! EDIT: Will try removing the second router from the equation and retest later... Edited March 31, 2014 by rickster53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you connecting to a server outside your local area network then? Must admit I haven't tested that this would work - If not just assign the local ip address of the server.. And yes I can try create a toggle between ip and URI entry but I don't know how Javascript handles external connections (usually blocks them) ---------------------------------------- @@rickster53 -> I can only assume its a network setup issue you have.. I know my Samsung TV can sometimes detect the wrong details and states its connected when it isnt, so manually enter the settings in the TV, in particular the DNS servers..
