MakeMKV and Samsung DNLA TVs (B650 etc)
Posted: Sat Jun 27, 2009 9:57 am
I'm trying to find the best software to archive my DVDs, to put them on my NAS running Twonky and then view over DNLA on my Samsung B650 LCD TV.
According to the manual, the Samsung suppports MKV containers with the following payloads:
Divx 3.11
MP3, AC3, LPCM, ADPCM (MULAW
ALAW), AAC
Divx 4.x
Divx 5.1
Divx 6.0
XviD
H.264 BP
H.264 MP
H.264 HP
MPEG-4 SP
MPEG-4 ASP
However the files produced by MakeMKV do not play.
Is there any way to select which codec MakeMKV uses? In fact which codec does it use?
I also know that the Samsung TVs are quite picky. For example when using Handbrake to produce an H.264 encoded file, the "WEB OPTIMISED" flag must be set in order for the TV to recognise the resultant file.
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks.
