Hi All

I have recently bought Mezzmo and is great but when I playback Pre-transcoded MKV files specifically for me XBOX using mpegts > mpeg2video(29 fps) > ac3.

But when I play these on my xbox it always stops/stutters but if I play them on my Pana GT50 directly they play fine. reason i want to play thru xbox is so that the signal can go thru me AV Amp rather than just play thru the TV speakers.

Files are on me 8gb N54L Microserver and all 3 devices are linked via CAT6 and a gigabit ethernet switch.

Thanks in Advance

It could be that the video bitrate is a little too high for your Xbox 360's firmware decode and play the MPEG-TS file. Try this:


Go to the Media Devices dialog and edit your device.
On the Device Settings dialog, go to the Performance tab and move the Video bitrate slider halfway. Click OK to save your changes.
Pre-transcode the MKV again to MPEG-TS. This time, on the Pre-transcode Formats dialog, select 'mpegts' and select the 'Force full transcode' checkbox.
Mezzmo will transcode the MKV file at a reduced video bitrate. Once complete, try streaming the video now.
