I have had no problems streaming mpeg2 even to the native player with Mediatomb. In fact, you can directly play mpeg2 files from an internet site (internet archive) if you have enough bandwidth. Even the matroska format will stream, although without sound and at an unpredictable framerate. Still, I think that problem is on the encoding side.:)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SangreSlayer:
So what your saying is you can transcode with PS3 media server?

IE: if you were to take a video gotten from a generic source, lets say via bittorrent you can stream that with the PS3 media server?

Any video I try does not work. it only works if I transcode it with handbrake first.

any tips would be greatly appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dazz87:
If I was you I would go and get a WD media player. They go for about 60-90 bucks. I used the PS3 for about a year and I gave up. Mkv is not support on ps3 media server. Videos that it cant play you're pc will need to transcode before sending it over to your display. I ended up getting a dedicated media player. There are tons to choose from. WD, boxee, popcorn hour and dune players. No issues streaming 20-30GB blu ray movies when I had the WD player. PS3 sucks for streaming IMHO.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
Actually, mpeg2 can be streamed over upnp.

Try this:

# ps3mediaserver renderer profile for Android
# Refer to PS3.conf for help

RendererName=Android
RendererIcon=android.png
UserAgentSearch=Android
Video=true
Audio=true
Image=true
SeekByTime=false
TranscodeVideo=MPEGAC3
TranscodeAudio=MP3
DefaultVBVBufSize=true
MuxH264ToMpegTS=false

MuxLPCMToMpeg=false
MaxVideoBitrateMbps=0
MaxVideoWidth=0
MaxVideoHeight=0
TranscodeExtensions=

[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
Though it should be worth noting UPnPlay doesn't send a "streaming end" HTTP header to the UPNP server, so after you play one video PS3 media server doesn't know you stopped watching the video and will be stuck in the "streaming mode", causing any other video not to load until you restart PS3 Media Server. This problem only persists iwth PMS, Serviio works fine if you set the transcoding profile. I wish PMS worked as it is the only Server with full softsub support.

Edit: Opps accidentally pressed "Quote" instead of edit...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SangreSlayer:
Just wanted to make sure i am trying with the same player as you.

I am using the "my Net" and selecting the ps3 media server from there.

With the new settings, when I go to play it it just hangs with "please Wait" previously it would just immediately end with "fail to load"
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
Did you edit Android.conf with my profile and then restarted the server? Also, use Upnplay combined with MoboPlayer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SangreSlayer:
I did edit the file with your settings and restart the server. Will download Upbplay (already have mobo installed).

Update in a few minutes
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SangreSlayer:
That does seem to work. I am able to play non HD videos.

I was able to play different video's back to back without restarting, I tested with three different videos, watch 1 min of each.

I tested out a topgear episode that is 720p. My PC says its being trans-coded, but moboplayer just says "loading". After 1.5 minutes i cancelled out by going "home"

I then restarted the PS3 media server and reloaded upnplay and tried the video again. my PC still says transcoding and serving but mobo is stuck on loading.

Under Transcoding settings, i don't have Avisynth/FFmpeg or Avisynth/Mencoder available as they are marked red if that means anything

Any suggestions?

Thanks for being so helpful. I really appreciate it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RobH79:
I know this post is asking about ps3 media server, and I have tried to use it also, but what I have found is a media server called PLEX, there is a mac/windows/even Linux server version, then you get the client on the app store for $5. I can not believe how well this app allows me to stream VOB/MKV/MPG,etc, and it allows me to do this all the way up to HIGH PROFILE 1080p MKV, oh and it also allows me to do this on a remote wifi connection or even on 3g, it really is amazing what these guys have pulled together. The other HUGE plus is it is a branch off of XBMC, so you have the same similar interface with all scraping, etc automatically, it can also do music and supports plugins. Anyways I would suggest you try it, server is free to download, and the app is so worth the measly $5, just suggest you get the server all setup and working before you buy the app. but even if you don;t like it the plex team will refund your money if you are not happy so there is really no remorse checking it out. Hope this helps, I am off to watch a 1080p high profile mkv on my transformer >;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
I think OP is trying to get PMS working so he can watch media on his PS3 too without running 2 servers. As to why HD vids don't play, maybe it didn't detect the need to transcode it, I need to look into this again after exam's over (maybe that'll explain why my videos didn't play properly when I tested), feel free to use the PS3.conf and try different things. It doesn't matter if you have ffdshow/avisynth, it uses bundled mencoder to re-encode. All that matters i that your PC can play the video fine in DirectShow players like Windows Media Player, Media Player Classic, Zoom Player.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DigitalSileR:
I tried the above .conf file settings and still when running an HD video

it won't limit the video size

is there a way to transcode down into say

800x480

I tried this

MaxVideoWidth=800

MaxVideoHeight=480
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SangreSlayer:
RobH79: Thanks for the information. So far I am most of the the way to my end goal. The last hold out being the 720p video's.

I believe the OP (like myself) do not want to run 2x renders, one for the PS3, one for the tablet.

Frosty:

The video does play fine on my PC using VLC but not with Windows media player ( I anticipate this is why all my below troubleshooting did nothing based upon your last response.)

I have done some more testing and tried a few different settings in the config, such as

MaxVideoWidth=800

MaxVideoHeight=600

and MaxVideoBitrateMbps=3

so far nothing has worked.

The video does play fine on my PC using VLC. I still see PS3 Media Server using the transcoding buffer, and Mencoder is using varying amounts of CPU and the java memory size is increasing as time goes on (I assume filling up the buffer)

**Update Since I started typing**

I went to: http://matroska.org/technical/guides/playback/windows/index.html and found out that i needed the CCCP pack, i usually dont install it on my system from a bad experience many years ago.

However I installed it and now it plays fine in windows media player.

I loaded up PS3 Media server and tried streaming again from my tablet...

And no luck, same issue as before. I went through all the other variations of the tweaks above and also no luck.

Any other suggestions?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] M-itch:
I also tried to get myNet working, but i found this.

myNet uses AwoX as UserAgent name. So copy Android.conf and rename the file and change from:

UserAgentSearch=Android

to

UserAgentSearch=AwoX

But all upnp clients that you can download in the market use Android.conf. I know so far that only AVIs/WMV are working. However no MKVs.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] alecs123:
ok... just my 2 cents

I have a tonido plug running ubuntun 9.04 and mediatomb as a server, no transcoding eneabled.

I installed UPnPlay from market as a upnp renderer (audio only, but support to stream video with external palyer)

I got DicePlayer (paid app) and am able to stream mkv, avi, mov, mp4 containers, even some movies that have srt or sub subtitles, however if I connect my tablet to a TV via HDMI I only get the video and not the subs... MyNet app gives a lot of trouble working with m3u playlists and can only render a file at a time, meaning if you want to play continous audio/viedo you need to go one by one manually.

So far I'm happy with this setup, planning on upgragind my local WLAN to "N" standard byt so far 54gb are good, not exellent

On the down side, I haven't got the time to tweak mediatomb to present in a convinient way video files, it throws everything regardless of the folder structure you have on the server hard disk

Edit, if you know how to hard encode and stream subtitles info is appreciated, also if you know to send subs via HDMI to tv I'll be grateful

It is a huge leap from petitioning HTC on the bootloader issue to opening the whole thing up. If it iis true HTC is certainly recognizing the value of energy and wealth of info that comes out of communities like this. That can only serve as a good thing.

i believe they are going open source, but the issue that we may run into, is they may only support the newest devices.. which will be cool for when we all switch, but may not help our heros.. everything i have been reading has been mostly with the the 3d and some of the other new devices..

still cool of them though
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaseDesire:
Hi,

i have changed from stock to Revolution HD today, because the dialer of the stock rom (since the GB update) drains my battery up to 50%.

But the problem is not fixed with Rev HD. My Dialer is still the top 1.

Is it possible to fix this bug in the same way as the cyanogen rom has fixed it?

Here is the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=929054

And here the changeset:

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,3904

Or is this option available in Rev HD?

Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Call Settings> Turn over silence

I could not find it in the specified settings.

I have no apps installed. It is a fresh image of Rev HD.

I have read the linked battery threads too, but i think it looks like the same problem as in the CM7 rom.

Many thanks.

Kase

edit: I am using it on the Desire HD
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopscotchjunkie:
There's been some discussion around this and in my opinion (which means it could well be wrong) it's not an actual issue.

I don't experience any more battery drain when Dialler is listed than when it isn't, and the details for Dialler in the list typically show it as only being awake for a couple of seconds over a full day.

Personally I think either HTC (or google or whoever) have combined several system processes and listed them together as "Dialler" making it show higher up the list, or it's a bug in how they calculate battery use in Gingerbread.

It might well be that it's continually using the sensor as was presumed in cm7 but I would expect to see more evidence of reduced battery life that were the case.

As I say, I might be wrong :)

//sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk; all errors entirely intentional.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaseDesire:
Hi hopscotchjunkie,

thx 4 your reply.

I am very sure that it really drains the battery. I have tested it a few times with the stock GB rom.

If i reboot my phone and never do a phone call, the dialer is not in the list. My battery time increases from 2 days to at least 3 days on low usage (only 3g on, but auto sync off). With Froyo, i always had up to 2.5 days (and no dialer problem).

Maybe you can test it too (i know it is hard to reach 2 or more days without phone call :-))?

I will install CM7 the next weeks (if i have some free time), and test the battery usage with this rom. But comparing 2 completely different roms is very inaccurate i think. But i will give it a try anyway.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0semaj0:
I know whilst the problem may sound related but just to be on the safe side of things, ensure that you have the recommended Radio and the compatible RIL installed on the phone. The Radio and the RIL will vary depending on the ROM that you use, and as far as I know both AR and CM7 all have listed their recommended Radio. The RIL you will have to match depending on the version of the Radio. Both Radio and RIL library is avaliable in this forum.

As others have mentioned possible bug, once the phone has been fully charged, go into CWM and clear the Battery Statistics. This will allow a sort of "restart" for the battery life articulation.

I am using CM7 (with custom kernel) and generally speaking, from what you have described, I havent had such issues before with either ROMs, although the last AR I used was prior to the 2.3 releases but have since been with CM7, noticably higher benchmarks, possibly better battery life, but definitely free up more RAM, which I suppose = better battery life?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fdelosriossanchez:
Wow, you battery is a beast if it can last up to three days, no matter how little you use the device. Back to the topic, it may be worth backing up your settings and try a factory reset, although you probably did in first place when you installed Revo HD. You may want to look at uninstalling Sense dialer and get a replacement and see how it goes. There are a few good ones out there.

I hope it helps.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaseDesire:
Hi all, thanks for your replies!!!

I have done some tests now with the AR 5.19 ROM.

If i reboot my device and do not start the dialer, the phone drains my battery 15% in 10 hours. No usage, only 3g on with whatsapp and icq, but no messages written at all. I have tested it many times with different battery charge levels, its always about 15%.

=> Battery usage: 50% phone standby, 50% phone inactive (i dont know the exact english words).

If i reboot my phone, start the dialer, but still no usage, same conditions, the phone drains the battery about 30% in 10 hours. Also tested many times with different battery charge levels.

=> Battery usage: 50% dialer, 25% phone standy, 25% phone inactive.

With the dialer, my battery is <10% after 2 days of low usage. If i reboot the phone and never start it, my battery is ~40% after 2 days, same usage.

I am very sure, the dialer drains the battery with the exact amount displayed in the battery stats. It matches 100% for me.

@0semaj0: I use the recommend RIL and Radio for AR 5.1.9, i have done a full wipe before and cleared my battery stats.

@HeiDuDer: I also tested this, deactivating the 3 options you have described does not change anything, the dialer is still in my battery stats after i used it at least once. Even after reboot.

@fdelosriossanchez: I will give it a try. If i use the nosense script, do i have the stock dialer??? Maybe i will test AR 5.1.9 with nosense.

I will post an update in a few days. Thanks to all!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tsopperi:
Bumping this with my own observations, deactivating the 3 options doesen't have an effect on the battery life, and the battery drains far faster after a reboot if I make a single phonecall to start the proximity sensor polling bug :(

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
It's mainly because Sense 3.0 just isn't suited to our hardware. It wants/needs more RAM. And when you start opening apps, it has to kill off sense to get enough RAM for the app to run. Then when you go back home, it has to reload again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsgrip:
Makes sense.. thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZonicTH:
You can actually use an old trick to fix this, but may cause other apps to close instead.

Go into terminal or adb shell and type:

adb shell

su

echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop

Reboot.

Should have fixed the launcher restarting.
