PS3 DLNA Audio Issues for H.264 Videos

[physicsman 0]

Hi All,

 

I'm running emby on a FreeNas/FreeBSD system and with the exception of this one issue, it's been fantastic!

 

Whenever I try to play a video on my PS3 via DLNA that is encoded in H.264 with mp4 audio encoding, the video will play but no audio comes through.  Other video types play perfectly (including audio).

 

I've tried all I can think of and would love some help in solving this.  I've attached screen caps of the codec info of an example video that presents this issue as well as of the Direct Play, Transcoding, and Codec pages of the PS3 DLNA profile.

 

I've also pasted the log file for an example stream that presents this issue.

 

I'm sure it's just some small noob thing that I'm missing.

 

Thanks in advance!!

Hi, is the audio that the server is sending not compatible ,do you know?

[pedrobotton 0]

I'm having the same problem, all my videos run without audio and without subtitles on Playstation 3, is there any solution to this problem? The same videos on the same network via Chromecast work smoothly. I'm thinking a lot about subscribing to Emby Premiere but only if the videos work with sound and subtitles on Playstation 3 otherwise it won't be worth it for me. Hope there is an answer, a hug from Brazil.
