[mythtv] Bug???: uPNP Streaming Playback

[Michael Craven]

I'm running trunk version 20462 on Fedora 8 and have found something
interesting (and frustrating).

 

I use a PS3 (software version: 2.70) as a frontend via uPNP. MythTV is
capturing AVC/AAC streams to a TS format which I convert to MP4
(container change only - no transcode). If I navigate to the recording
file directly via the 'Videos' branch, it streams and plays perfectly.
I'd like to make use of the 'Recordings' uPNP branch on the MythTV
server. Again, I'm able to navigate and find a specific recording but,
when I try to play it, I get the following in the backend log (run with
-verbose upnp) and the PS3 responds 'corrupt data':

I found another post from a while back with the same issue that seemed
to start with v2.10 of the Sony system software. Is this a bug? If so, I
assume I should be raising a ticket. I was hoping that others might have
a solution before going that route. I happy to post the log from a
successful stream if that will help. Not being a developer myself, it
seems odd that streaming would work from one branch but not from another
on the same server!

 

Thoughts?
