Droid-X DLNA streaming make sure you optimize for streaming in Handbrake…

In handbrakecli you need to use the –optimize flag

At least it’s the only way I’ve had any luck.

Try using Handbrake to make a streaming version with the following command arguments (remember if you have spaces in your file name or path you will have to put the input file and output file in quotes):

handbrakecli –input –output –format MP4 –markers –x264opts level=30:bframes=0:cabac=0:ref=1:vbv-maxrate=768:vbv-bufsize=2000:analyse=all:me=umh:no-fast-pskip=1:subq=6:8x8dct=0:trellis=0:weightb=0:mixed-refs=0:ref=1:subme=2 –vb 1536 –two-pass –optimize –keep-display-aspect –turbo –audio 1 –aencoder faac –ab 160 –mixdown dpl2 –arate 48 –drc 2.0 –native-language eng –subtitle-forced scan –subtitle scan

If you are having trouble setting up a DLNA server it’s real easy to pop up mezzmo and it will stream files encoded with the above command line without fail here.
