Hi Guys

A few people with problems playing videos or streaming videos that used to work in PR1.0. I have had problems with ipod encoded videos from handbrake, whereas the included videos and ones from my camera work just fine.

Others do not seem to have problems, so I wanted to see if this is related to the OTA update vs a direct flash using PC

By the way a work around for me is to use either KM Player or Canola, where the all vids seem to play sweet.

Could you or someone else provide clip of ipod "profile" encoded video so we can test.

For me provided videos and with my own settings (basically same as wikis handbrake profile) encoded trailers work quite good on default player, but kmplayer plays them without jerkyness.

And how I can test video streaming?

if you have a Mac, and you use handbrake, its just the default iPod profile. The Default iPhone profile also used to work, but has stopped.

I will see if I can make a short vid and post.

Hmm. Just encoded video clip in handbrakes 0.9.4 default ipod profile and i didnt touch any settings and video plays fine though looks quite crappy because of low resolution

.edit
next trying also with audio

Here's an ipod rendered file that will not play with pr1.1

Once copied, it played for about 2 secs then got stuck.
Re-booted and now it exhibits the same behaviour in the media player. flashing ballons and just sits there

This was transcoded using handbrake 0.93 which was the same version that original vids that used to work were encoded in.

Confirmed to work in Canola

make sure you read this thread that I started a few days ago, the guys there are awesome and seem to be making some progress

mikec file you provided doesn't work and looks like i have to reboot because i cant play any video file anymore

.edit
kmplayer plays still nicely.

@Slender

Cheers for trying the file out. Cant see anything unusual about the file, so now to try and track down what has changed to stop it playing.

Looks like Philipl has tracked this down
