    Default mp4 with 5.1 AAC audio not playing on xbox 360

    Hello,

    I'm evaluating mezzmo as my media server, but it doesn't stream my mp4 videos to my xbox 360. This is probably because of the fact that the xbox 360 only supports 2 channel aac audio and my video's are 5.1. I would suspect mezzmo to transcode the audio to 2.0 but that doesn't seem to happen. Can this be added to the xbox 360 profile?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Can you please post FFmpeg information about one of those files (in Mezzmo right-click on the file and use the "Get FFmpeg Information" command) - I can then check it against the profile to see what's happening.

    Thank you for your quick reply.
    Here is the ffmpeg information for one of the files that didn't work.

    Thanks for the file info.

    It fails because FFmpeg cannot resample 6 channels to 2 channels - we'll need to find a solution for this. Please send a message to support (at) conceiva (dot) com and once we have a working solution, I'll send you an updated device profile.

    Maybe the trick we did with the WDTV profile would work - transcoding from AAC 5.1 to AC3 5.1? If the Xbox 360 can pass AC3 to the receiver, that would do the trick.
