Problems to watch MKV BDRemux

[approved101]

Hi,

I just install Xbian in my Raspberry and you did a fantastic job. I'm going to sell my iXtreamer to us it. Good job.

The only problem I have, and maybe I can solve it, it's that my iXtreamer is making NAS service under upnp and I have The Lord of the Rings in BDRemux (37 gb each film). Well, when I try to watch it in Xbian I listen the sound of the film but I cannot watch it. Both are connected via ethernet in the same router.

Maybe I have to make some configuration, bcs I listen people that they are playing such kind of films.

THks for yr help
Brgds

as I looking for your Madia Info output, your file has quite high bitrate - 36,6Mbps
not sure if Pi can handle such a bitrate, to be honest.
Also the extension of the file is .m2ts which is and raw BD container.
I do not personally own any file in this type of container. I prefer MKV even some says it looses the quality.
Not sure how RPi handle this kind of files to be honest.
If I find the some source with .m2ts I will look into it

[approved101]

In my case the file is mkv.

[rikardo1979]

so I have managed to get similar files to test. I have not found any issues at all and all is playing smooth.
I do not use any extra OC settings, all is basically XBian default to make sure I do not confuse people. Only difference to yours that I do stream over LAN/SMB not upnp.
Would you be able to try SMB or NFS instead, maybe ?

here is Media Info of file I tested

I was wrong with second file I tested, it buffers occasionally with default XBian OC settings, but is playing just fine with High OC.
But keep in mind that I use SMB where NFS should be even better, so it might not need to use higher OC
sorry for confusion

[f1vefour]

If it's a raw BD rip and your only getting sound, it sounds like you haven't purchased the AVC1 codec license.

[approved101]

Thks for your help. I will try to setup ixtreamer as samba server instead of upnp. Regarding yor comments about OC high, how can I manage this setting?

How can I buy the codec? Where?

you can buy codec licences on raspberry pi website, but for AVC you do not need any extra licences. Licences are needed only for MPEG-2 or VC-1 codecs

The OC setting can be set from GUI if you go to System>Settings>Xbian or from Programs>XBian
than you need to turn ON Preferences>Advanced mode and than System>Overclocking
or you can do it from SSH where once you connect the xbian-config appears than go to Settings>Licences

[approved101]

OC done and impossible.

what is impossible? can you be more specific please ?
also can you post the Media Info of the exact file you trying to play ?
cos you said

so would be better to have the mediainfo of the file you trying

It is the standard Blu-ray codec from my understanding of formats, I could be wrong but sound and no video equal wvc1.

Rip a minute of the video and let us see it if you can.

[rikardo1979]

also read my post above where are the links.dont get confused AVC and VC-1,there are two different things.
AVC is an BD standard

This should have said "I didn't want the entire file."
