I recently got a Chromecast and I'm using rygel[1] as a UPnP AV MediaServer controlled by BubbleUPNP[2] to server videos stored on my file server to my Chromecast. So far so good: it works a treat with content like VOBs off DVDs converted to MP4 with the aid of ffmpeg.

However is doesn't play MP4s straight out of get_iplayer (just using --get, no other flags). I've discovered I can fix this by using ffmpeg to re-encode but I was wondering if anyone had been this way before and was aware of a switch I could give to get_iplayer to make it produce MP4s which were Chromecast compatible straight of the box.

TIA
