MP4 files no longer play

[realityisnt]

After installing 7.1.3 beta and upgrading to 7.1.5 beta I noticed that my mp4 files no longer play.

I tried all video and h.264 settings in detailed setup but nothing.
I have Cyberlink powerdvd 8 HD version installed on my system and use that video decoder as main.

No play any more.
WMP plays the file directly just fine

same here .. mp4 files hanging

Edit, broken v714 (with sage.jar replacement) client connecting to v715 mp4 not working. Once both were v715 mp4s are working again.

[realityisnt]

not sure what that is supposed to mean but I am only using 1 system with server and client and both are 715.
mp4 and mov files do not play

Not having any mp4 issues here. Are you seeing any errors in the log files? With what converter were the mp4's produced?

[realityisnt]

no errors, I select the movie from imported videos and it stays at 0:00:00

encoded from mpg file using apples h.264 codec
apples mov files encoded from mpg also

Ah. I've had an MP4 failure now too in the PC client. This is when SageTVPlayer is selected for use. The video plays but audio is silent. If I drop the file directly on SageTVPlayer the audio plays fine however. So it must be related to how SageTV sets it up to play. I've tried all the different audio renderers, but no change.

Using DirectShow works just fine.

Here's a partial log. It appears to find an audio stream and then can't play it ("no sound"). And further on mutes the audio.

When I play my mp4 using SageTVPlayer it plays just fine.

Shows Video: avc1 using ffmpeg's ffh264
Audio: 48khz 2 ch s161e 128 kbit using faad aac

I am using ffdshow for all video and audio output.

Some mp4's play fine on the client, other's have silent audio. Odd.

So far, no issues. Running CCCP codec pack.
