rorbit 4 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I did nothing to set up DLNA (because I don't know how) just plugged in the TV to network, switched the input on TV to DLNA network and everything was there. I can browse all categories latest, TV, movies etc... but only the music files will play (mp3). All the others when I press on the video title to play will start but stops and returns to the title. This happens with both mp4 and mkv. These files will play if I put them on a USB stick and into the TV's USB port. TV is a Sharp Aquos LC-40LE830U Any help much appreciated.

Luke 37066 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Welcome. I haven't seen to many Sharp testers around here, so there's probably some work required in terms of learning what formats the tv can handle natively. @@Happy2Play maybe you can help him with a profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8282 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 This is basically the same as the Sony Bravia (2013) from other profiles I found. Just made minor mods. All the basics are there. There are a lot of post about issues with mkv's and having to disable direct play and direct streaming on the TV. Couldn't find <ProtocolInfo> for this model only for SHARP AQUOS LC-40F5 but created errors in the xml so I left it out. Seen mixed results on search, may need to modify <RequiresPlainVideoItems>false</RequiresPlainVideoItems> to true <RequiresPlainFolders>false</RequiresPlainFolders> to true <SonyAggregationFlags>10</SonyAggregationFlags> seen some profiles with and some without <TimelineOffsetSeconds>0</TimelineOffsetSeconds> seen some set at 20 Sharp Aquos.xml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8282 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Did you put the profile in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\config\dlna\user? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rorbit 4 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Well I tried the .xml file you kindly provided but now the TV can't even find the dnla server. Anyway I am not really interested in messing around with dlna and since I have a spare MCE USB remote and reciever I will just stick a $200 Zotac PI320 (when available) or something similar to the back of the TV.

rorbit 4 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 No I put where the other xml profiles were \MediaBrowser-Server\config\dlna\system I will move it to the \user directory and give it another shot. Let you know tommorow if it works. Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rorbit 4 Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Sharp Aquos now appears under custom profiles in MediaBrowser server, but the TV still can't find the DNLA server. Sorry I can not be of much help since I don't know anything about this stuff, hence why I took a guess and put the Sharp xml file in the system folder along with the other profiles.
