MKV issues with XBOX 360!

[quebecman]

Hello all,

Well, I was waiting with impatience v4.x if MKV's with XBOX360 would of been fix. Unfortunately, the fixes weren't there :(. In other words, on XBOX 360 and with MKV's, the only thing that works is the PAUSE option. All the reste doesn't work! :mad:

Before you say that XBOX360 doesn't support MKV's there are other DLNA server out there that works such as PLEX by example. In other words, I do not understand why the PRE-TRANSCODING doesn't work!

There are around 30 millions xbox 360 on the market, it could of make a lot of new customers for mezzmo.


Thanx. Regards.

By default, Mezzmo is transcoding your MKV to MPEG-TS on-the-fly. This lets you watch the video immediately as it is transcoding - but it does have a disadvantage of not letting you FF/REW. Alternatively, if you pre-transcode the video to MPEG-4, then you can use FF/REW as you want - but it has a disadvantage of not being able to transcode on-the-fly. So, if you need FF/REW, then pre-transcode to MPEG-4.

Right-click on the video in Mezzmo and click Pre-transcode Files to pre-transcode your video.

These format limitations are all in Xbox 360's firmware and not Mezzmo.
