That show was automatically transcoded via an entry in the Favorites for that show yesterday. I gave up on the batch files yesterday morning. -Bill

Was it just one show or did they all look like this ?

I tried a second show and it looked the same. I have reinserted the bracket and its at 80% transcoded.. so at least the Thermometer & Percentage is back working on the status page.

As you see above I do not have that problem everything works when you try one can you post the SageTVTranscoder log.


I see a problem with this one 2 --

transcoder/formats/mp4-H264veryslow\ mp4=f\=mp4;MCompressionDetails\=--preset veryslow -c\:v libx264;

should be

transcoder/formats/mp4-H264veryslow\ mp4=f\=mp4;MCompressionDetails\=-preset veryslow -c\:v libx264;

[bigbill]

JFYI. the new transcode has the same issue with the bracket added back, only thing that changed is the status updates are working again.

Here are the relevant entries from the transcoder log. (if only Josh had timestamps in that log..)

For some reason you are not using the new profiles ...if you look at my transcoder log above it shows the preset being used.... -f mp4 -preset superfast ..

Maybe with all the edits to the profiles yours are not correct ... can you post them from your SageTVProperties.

[bigbill]

I just added Josh's Media Parser as a test. First test after installing it made no difference playing the Trans show.

I'm going to revert my prop file back to 48 hours ago. Then add your profiles back in.

Then try superfast like I did above for comparison.


Mine are all working Including medium ...

OK, I added your profiles again, this time I pasted them into notepad++ first to make sure there were no extra characters... and of course the up arrows got by again.. But the thermo was still working without the brackets this time!

And I could see the presets in the TC log this time. I canceled it to get rid of the up arrows. And am restarting the transcode.

I have been pulling out all the old profiles, but they keep getting put back. Like the old MPEG ones and PSP etc.

Yeah those old ones get added by SageTV automaticcally ... Sorry I had a few profiles screwed up .

Thanks for hanging in there Bill ... you helped me in finding my typos.

[bigbill]

We are good, no more weird stuff on the playback timeline.. And the Status screen is incrementing like it should!

Thanks for Hanging in my my novice issues.... -Bill

Now if only I could figure out a way to schedule the transcodes inside sage we would be cooking with gas!

Bring up a favorite you can set to transcode there and tell it where to put it.

[bigbill]

I have been doing it like that in the favorites since yesterday for testing, but that starts the transcode immediately on that slow pc, which in theory could effect other shows recording at the same time. I did the batch file thing so I could run them overnight after the last of the primetime shows were finished recording. And I really liked that as I could run it on an almost new I5 6 core 12 thread pc I use as my desktop, it transcodes at about double the speed of my sage pc.

The SageTVTranscoder runs in IDLE mode so it will not take CPU cycles from other tasks.

[bigbill]

After all this. The transcoding seems to work flawlessly but the newly created shows will not play. They come up like they are going to play but no video shows up on the windows client. I am attaching what sagetv says the new file is. And a screen shot of where it trys to play but doesn't. I have tried two different presets with the same results on different shows (i am using shorter shows)

Hard to believe this.

The show plays find in windows movie/tv app and also VLC. I have also uploaded a screen shot of the VLC media info for it.

Do you have the LAV filters installed and are they setup correctly in SageTV ?

[bigbill]

Appears I have them installed but not fully setup. I will configure that here and see if that makes a difference. Thanks!

[bigbill]

That didn't change it. Is there something that configures the client side instead of the server side like some plugins need?

Did You install the New SAGETVTranscoder in the Client and media Parser. ????

My Clients have no problem playing anything I throw at it with LAV filters.
