DLNA

Note: Right now, all of this is specific to my Sony Blu-ray players that have DLNA support. See file formats supported by Sony.

What works

  • MP4: baseline, medium, high profile; levels 3.1+; title tag
  • MKV: baseline, medium, high profile; levels 3.1+; VOBSUB, closed captioning, AC3 audio, chapters
  • Resume playback on titles, during same power session
  • On MP4 and MKV, Sony Blu-ray players will drop the extension, so you can have some kind of a naming scheme.

What doesn't work

Note: This is actually my Sony BDP client that doesn't do this, not minidlna

  • MKV: title tags :(
  • Resume playback on titles (after power-cycle) :(

Matroska title tags

Note: This is actually my Sony BDP client that doesn't do this, not minidlna

I tried tagging the title in these places:

  • Movie name
  • Title tag
  • Track name

Tried using mmg and mkvpropedit to set the tags. None of them worked, sadly. :(

MP4 worked natively.
