Click details and send me that screen!

[ZeroColl]

Oh, and in most cases you should run this app as Admin.. didn't care to check why this is the case, but for me it works.
And for now the app almost always worked for me, the only problems were with some prison break episodes, no clue why.

Jep.. its the same problem someone else had.. you probably use the 32bit vista version?
In the buntle there is a 64bit MediaInfo.dll.. please download the 32bit mediainfo.dll and replace th eone provided in my package.
The link is somewhere in this topic.

It tells me I'm using the wrong audio or video codec, even though I'm using a Matroska file with x264 and AC3 streams. What's going on?

An option to not split would be most welcome!... I've played 8GB files without issue myself, played via twonkymedia server btw.

My problem is that I don't have your file to test it and determine what the problem is. Until now I never encountered such a problem if the file was in correct format. (You could tell me on PM what file so I can test it)

OK, I will ad that in the next release, after I sort out some other problems that people occasionally have.

[andyd2k]

Thanks for this! I do have issues that hopefully can be addressed...

I was able to convert a file but it won't actually stream to my 360. I can see the file in the folder but all I get is a black screen when trying to play the file.

Now the problem here is that I know this was a issue when I was messing with mkv to mp4 a couple of months back - the level needs to be changed from 5.1 to 4.1.

I see that this is supposedly addressed but is this a definite? I can't actually run the file through h264 since the output file is avi

[ZeroColl]

the actual output file is an MP4 file, but for some (stupid) reason my system was set up so that WM didn't recognize the .mp4 files, but worked correctly with an avi extension.. so you can change this to .mp4 if you want to.

the 5.1 to 4.1 conversion is done (no actual conversion there only a change in the h264 file header) but i had also experienced some files (prison break) that wouldn't play.. try some other file, if the problem is still there I will try to find a solution.

But remember this is by no means a perfect solution, but for some weird reason it almost always works for me

[bradtn]

Cant even click convert as soon as i do i get error
