b) if it is Yify, it is h.264, that's all they encode in.
Every Yify file plays perfectly on the computer using MPC-HC (my favorite player), but on the TV something's not right. I normally copy the files to a USB stick and use the TV's USB input to play them. Some play perfectly, but on others I get a message saying the file is not compatible.
I just ran a test with a movie that wouldn't play (Midnight Lace, 1080p). I used Ultra Video Joiner to convert it to an output format called H264 AVC Mpeg4 (*.mp4) - after the conversion the file played perfectly. I have no clue as to why it wouldn't play before or why some work and some don't.
The unconverted file will play if I use DLNA from the computer, but I can't advance or back up, nor will it resume if I have to close the program down. That's why I asked it VLC was generally better and/or faster relative to other converters.
Any ideas?
VLC is open source so In my opinion its still the best one out there for converting video and its free so anyone can look into its code and spot vulnerabilities
