Xbox 360 Playback Problem

[Fugdefino]

I've tried converting a 1080p h.264 file to an Xbox 360 compatible file but the resulting file won't play. Below is the file info of the file. Any idea what could be causing the problem?

Did you use the 360/PS3 profile in MeGUI or did you come up with your own parameters?

[Fugdefino]

I used 360/PS3 fast profile.

Perhaps it being over 2GB? I know some players have difficulty with those. Try splitting it. Also, make sure you're connected to Xbox LIVE when trying to play the file; the 360 needs an update (or a few) before it will play.

any file under 4 gig should definatly work, as Fat32 file systems on hard drives can handle that (though your internat HD is probably ntfs+). Its probably a bug in the software, or you've got a lame CPU or you lack ram which makes saving temporary files harder.

are you using gotsent? ive had problems with that, i have to clean out my ram in order to convert an mkv file, the bigger the mkv file, the less full up my ram needs to be, else i get crashes and incorrect output files.

Forgot to mention I burned files to DVD-RW. Don't know if the file size might cause a problem with them. Tried burning as both a UDF and ISO disc with same result. Will try to split to less than 2gb to see if it makes any difference.
