Things to know
- Make sure you are browsing the proper section of the Sony XMB (press Home then left several times).
The Serviio audio, image and video folders will all show up in each category due to how DLNA servers work - it's just the Sony that insists on having a menu for each category.
- MKV "Data corrupted" potential solution : viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1132
- AVC H264 High Profile maximum Level is 4.1 (use TsMuxer to change level)

Supported
- Thumbnail artwork only support for photos media using JPEG_TN resource.
- Subtitle and Multi Audio Tracks are supported from MKV files over DLNA (European model)

Not Supported
- Thumbnail artwork for video or audio media are not supported.
- Subtitle not supported in MPEG program streams (VOB files in other words). The player supports these from disc, but not via DLNA
- SRT subtitle files not supported

howcome is this coded in the profile then if it's not supported

<!-- set mkv to divx mime-type to allow subtitle and multiple audio track support -->
