newb needs help with transcoding folder

Please no caps, it isn't nice to read.

I don't think I can explain it any more simply, I've written out what you need to run based on what you and If you cannot follow that then writting a script/supplying the information needed to help you write one will be very difficult. What do you mean put the x?

Lets start again. If you want this to work, you will need to know the following things:
1) What command line options your specific version of ffmpeg needs to generate something a Roku / iOS can play
2) What command line options serviio generates
3) What the difference is (you want the difference to be as minimal as possiable)

From this, a script can be written that turns 2 into 1 based on 3

To get this info
1) ? you will have to supply that, and if you don't know then this isn't going to work
2) Turn on detailed logging, setup a simple profile and try to play something, you can then see the ffmpeg parameters that are used
3) Compare the two

Now as for trying to test soapcast (is this related to what you want or a different problem)

try

  Code:

cd "C:\Users\Mark\Documents"
dir sopcast*

cd "C:\Programe Files\Serviio\lib"
ffmpeg.exe -i "C:\Users\Mark\Documents\sopcast.avi"


and then paste what is shown in command prompt using my previous instuctions.

The first two will list all files begining with sopcast to check you actually have the correct one.
The second one will get some info about it. If running dir sopcast* shows something other than sopcast.avi, then use whatever it shows.

Lol that wasn't me someone else hijacked the post have no idea now what you were responding to me ...

I'm on my way to Chicago right now but will check this thread later on a pc screen.

Did you mean for me I need the ffmpeg parameters for you to help me?? If so can't get to those till I get home on Tuesday

Thanks!!

Lol, that makes a bit more sense then. To the other poster, don't do that, start a new thread and we will try to help (and will hopefully get somewhere as we will be on the same page) . To me, read the usernames (to be fair they are in a much more subtle colour whe using TapaTalk).

Let's start again, again. Also change the thread title to something closer to what you are trying to do and lesss inviting for other users who think their problem is releated.

Yes will need to know what parameters it needs so that we can generate something as close to it as possible.

Please I've asked you a few times, create your own topic about this and stop hijacking this one.

I hope to get working on this now this weekend...


i got a new NAS drive and it has Twonky on it, but not a big fan of it... it is a iomega home media server.

I think i will work on getting serviio working this week, thanks!
