Description
Hi! This patch fixes two problems, when you try to play movies on DLNA capable Samsung TV ( tested on my own LE37B650 )
1, With the TV restricted software ( PC share manager ) detects and plays correctly the 'mkv' type files. Because this TV doesn't recognize the 'video/x-matroska' MIME type, therefore must change it to 'video/x-mkv' to plays it.
- When plays any video on TV ( except recorded programs ) cannot pause its. The TV doesn't accept videos with zero duration. I'm set it to one minute, what isn't correct indeed, but able to pauses anywhere the videos. Unfortunatelly isn't any correct movie file duration detect method yet, therefore this parameter is a constant.
Is there anyone, who sends me a full DLNA document link?

For the first part of the patch: Are we sure this will not cause a regression for other UPnP/DLNA players? I'll look into the code to see the heritage of that commit.

Replying to beirdo:

I don't know. My DLNA TV doesn't recognize x-matroska type, therefore rejects mkv's as unknown, but the official manual contains the mkv support and it works with its own software. Because I haven't got the (official) DLNA standards, I don't know where search the solution:
May be in the samsung firmware contains this mistake, but while haven't got description, I have no evidence to this. So don't construe to complain it at samsung.
Well now, currently simpliest to change MIME type to x-mkv in mythtv source to enable mkv's playing on TV. Some more test need to clear up, to know is this patch causes any problem in other players.
I'll look into the code to see the heritage of that commit.
Not sure.
