That is not the problem. Your file should actually match something like
the AVC_TS_MP_SD_AAC_MULT5 profile which we don't support yet (MPEG_TS_*
are for MPEG-2 video, not H.264).

As a beginning, you could try adding a new profile
to /usr/share/gupnp-dlna/dlna-profiles/avc.xml based on
AVC_MP4_MP_SD_AAC and the definition of MPEG_TS at
profiles /usr/share/gupnp-dlna/dlna-profiles/mpeg-ts.xml. Let me know if
you need help with this.

I'll be adding the ability to create custom profiles locally so you
don't need to modify installed files soon.

Cheers,
