I'm running 4.4.6 on my ReadyNAS X6, streaming to my PS3, running software v2.42. I understand 4.4.6 is supposed to fix streaming to the PS3, but I'm still having problems streaming some files. It appears to be only certain videos. Most are DivX encoded AVIs, but some are M2TS files. I have successfully streamed numerous M2TS files, and a handful of DivX files, but for some reason certain files give me a "The data type is not supported" error when played, after which, the PS3 labels the file "Unsupported data". Is there anything I can do on my end to fix this? If not, is there anything I can do to gather more information to help debug the issue?
Any help would be most appreciated.

Re: 4.4.6 PS3 Woes
Are they REALLY DivX encoded AVI's, using the official DivX encoder? (or more likely XVids, which are not always compatible, and never been on the list of supported PS3 formats).

Re: 4.4.6 PS3 Woes
They are all encoded using the DivX 6.x codec via VirtualDub. I encoded them all the same way. Some of them play. Some of them don't. The same goes for several of my M2TS files. There are a few that don't play.mgillespie wrote:Are they REALLY DivX encoded AVI's, using the official DivX encoder?
