Well, since the TeVii 500 appaears to support several formats/codecs that aren’t listed as supported by the Sigma chipset, I’m going to guess that it isn’t Sigma-chipped.
If it plays the files fine through Samba to the TeVii, then it appears to be a decoder issue and not a Samba issue or anything related to the router.
Which narrows the list of possible fixes down to:
- recode to a bitrate that the Sigma chip can handle
- keep playing the file(s) on the TeVii, since you are happy with the playback from it
