  • TSV video format

    Quote from emveepee

    Try updating advancedsettings.xml https://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings.xml#videoextensions and adding .tsv as a valid video extention. Then ffmpeg will decide if it can play it or not. If it fails upload the logs.

    So I created an advancedsettings.xml file in folder

    /storage/.kodi/userdata/

    with this content:

    <advancedsettings version="1.0"

    <videoextensions>

    <add>.tsv|.TSV</add>

    </videoextensions>

    </advancedsettings>

    and...

    BINGO!!! It works!

    Obviously it's possible to achieve the same result just changing the .TSV extension to .TS because this is in the default video extensions.


    Thank you!

    The simplest test of all is play them through VLC first. If they are not playing there you can nearly be sure LE won’t play them. Unfortunately there was very little background given by the OP to the source of these files so it’s really just a guessing game. HDCP could also be at play here too. Who knows without further background.

    TSV files recorded with the decoder opens normally with all players (Windows Media Player, VLC, MPC, etc.).

    I can't find a sample .tsv video file to download and try. This must be a very proprietary format.

    Where can I upload and share a sample?

    Appears they are encrypted .ts video files with DRM baked in. Possibly recorded from a set top box. Would that be correct. If so they are purposely saved in this way to prevent any form of sharing or distribution or any form of editing and can only be played back from the source they were recorded.

    It is recorded with this decoder:

    It has a PVR function that save in TSV format.
    This format opens normally with VLC, MPC, Windows Media Player, HandBrake, etc.
