Play mts files from HD camcorder ?

[jksmurf]

Hi Martin,

I added a directory to videos to play mts files via NPVR (on the pch), but NPVR does not show the files.
Is there a file type I need to add to config.xml?

If this works, then is there a play all option available?

If not possible via NPVR, I did manage to add the share and play mts files natively, but I can't find a play all option in the NMT documentation. Is this possible?

Ta!

Add it to the following in config.xml

Code:

<VideoLibrary extensions="^.+\.(mpeg|mpg|m2v|avi|bdmv|ty|avs|ogm|mp4|mov|m2ts|wmv|cdg|iso|rm|dvr-ms|ts|mkv|vob|divx|flv|ratDVD|m4v|3gp|rmvb|wtv[b][color=#FF0000]|mts[/color][/b])$">

Cheers !
Can I also play all on a dir?

Yes, play all should work. However I don't know if .mts is an extension that sub permits as streamable via http or if NRecord reads that inclusion list.

Ah, I forgot. It also has to be added to <AllowedMediaExtensions> in the <MVP> section.

I'll try the above too. Currently I can now see the file, but am getting this error when tryuing to play it, and it jumps out of NPVR and reboots the PCH.

That is typically how an invalid type is shown. Did you update both settings in config.xml?
