My Sony BDP-S390 will not play Mythtv recordings via the Mythtv UPnP
server. I have checked the logs and found nothing. There are no error
messages on the Mythtv machine to report. I can tell you that Mythtv 0.24
does work but 0.25 and 0.26 do not work. When you navigate the directory
tree of the Mythtv server using the BDP-S390 and go to recordings you will
see that the files show up as AVI files. The files on the Mythtv server
are MPG files. If I transfer the files to my D-Link or Netgear UPnP
servers they show up correctly as MPEG files and play fine. I have tested
a Sony BDP-S780 and that player does play the files but they are listed as
AVI files and not MPEG files. I have also tested my Android phone with
Bubble UPnP and that works fine. The files are displayed as MPEG. I found
a closed ticket from 0.25 (11128) that did sort of address the issue but
it said that the issue was fixed in 0.26 and I can tell you it is not. I
would like to offer tcpdumps of the BDP-S390 playing a 10 second video
from the D-Link DNS-323 and Netgear WNDR4500 UPnP servers that work
correctly if it would help in resolving this issue.

Comment (by Rune Petersen <rune@…>):

#9424 "Support for Sony Blu-ray players" added a hack which makes mythtv
report recordings as AVI for all Sony bluray players.
The hack appear to be needed to get BDP-S?80 players to play back mpeg2-ts
content, however newer players (BDP-S?90 or later) will play mpeg2-ts fine
but will break because of the #9424 hack.

if you revert #9424 you should have your BDP-S390, but it will "break"
support for your BDP-S780.
(pick your poison)

Newer devices seam to have better UPnP/DLNA conformance, so hopefully
UPnP/DLNA will be usable with all devices bought a few years from now =)
