The log you posted is just the thumbnail creation ... they all work I tested all of them. Need to see the correct log.

I am pretty sure that the transcoder automagically transcodes h.265 files to play back to SageTV extenders. I am just using the built in transcoding that runs automatically in the recent versions of SageTV for unRAID.

My HD300s generate an error every time I try to play a h265 file, so something is not right about my configuration.

Ideas?

So strangest thing... I obviously copied the wrong bit of log, so I went back just now to find it - it was gone. So I tried to make it happen again and it suddenly worked just fine on the same recording with the same settings... I guess it's ok now lol thanks!

Can you post the related log from SageTVTranscoder.log? I do not think I even tested this scenario. I would need to pull an HD300 out of storage to even test it.

EDIT: I went out to my garage and tested on a HD300 I have out there, and it worked flawlessly. It looks like it encodes to 720x480 in dvd format. Not sure if that can be increased or not. What OS are you running SageTV on? What version of this plugin are you using?

Will do. This will take a minute, because I exhaustively transcoded all my h265 files to h264 with Handbrake. But happy for the help and will respond as soon as I can!
