Transcoding because of interlaced video

[clarkss12 304]

Been testing my client to see why some videos are transcoding.  As I recall, they all used to Direct Play, not some of them are transcoding.  I am going to use the video "Anzio" for my example.  I am using my Mecool M8S Pro L (Amlogic S912) for my client and Vorke V2 (Windows 10) as my server.

 

The message says it is transcoding because it is interlaced video, I don't believe it.  Attached is the codec info for this video file.

Anzio server log.txt

I believe you are on the beta?  If so, there are now options in the playback settings for whether or not content should be de-interlaced on the server.

 

From our media info:

"DisplayTitle":"480I MPEG2VIDEO","IsInterlaced":true

That solved the problem, UNchecked that option, now it plays with Direct Play.

 

Thanks.
