iPhone 4 videos to PS3?

[Drenhead]

Has anyone had any luck getting their iPhone 4 HD videos to play on the PS3? I use PS3MediaServer to stream videos from my PC to my PS3, but no matter what format conversion I use, I can't get the iPhone 4 vids to play.

I think the Video is AVC level 3.1 and the audio is AAC LC. I tried remuxing these into an .mp4 file (among others), but the PS3 won't play them.

I appreciate any suggestions.

Why did you remux them? If they weren't .mp4 how did they play on the iPhone?

[Drenhead]

They are .mov files that are recorded on the iphone. I want to get the videos recorded on the iphone to play on my PS3. PS3 won't play .mov files.

mediainfo of the source and remuxed file please.

[Drenhead]

I'll do it when I get home.....thanks

Here is a screenshot of the mediainfo for one of the videos created on my iPhone 4. I thought this should play on my PS3, but it won't:

I meant the full mediainfo, but never mind. I just remembered that the PS3 can't play .mp4 files directly produced by x264, even after remuxing them, so maybe this situation is similar. You should try to demux your mov to raw streams and then mux those to mp4 instead of muxing directly. This fixes x264 produced files and may work here as well.

None of the tools I have would let me demux the audio and video on the file. I tried opening it up in AVIDEMUX and selecting Copy for both the audio and video, and saving it as an .mp4 file. This time, the PS3 will play it, but the audio sound like Alvin and the Chipmunks are talking. It is very fast and high pitched. I also tried changing the audio to AC3 and MP2, but those times, the audio is very slow and deep. Very strange.

What khz does the audio need to be for the PS3?

Thanks for all your help.

Can you post a sample? I would expect that you would be able to demux the mov using mp4box.

@Drenhead get roozhou's ffmpeg muxer (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=152419)...

make a .bat like this:

for %%a in ("*.mov") do ffmpeg -i %%a -vcodec copy -acodec copy %%~na.m4v

pause

put in the same folder the .bat, ffmpeg.exe and all the iPhone 4 .movs you need to convert and run the .bat...you will get perfect playing PS3 and iTunes .m4v files...

@b66pak: I'm 98% sure that's not gonna help it.
No, nurbs is right, we'll need a full Mediainfo output or a sample of that file.
As far as I can remember, one issue was that the PS3 doesn't support CAVLC entropy encoding so you can't playback PSP coded clips.
With the "old" iPhone for example you must use CAVLC.
So I'm pretty sure the options used to encode are incompatible.

Unfortunately I don't own one of those new ones, but I'll asks someone on the iPhone forum if they can provide me some clips.
