Network Suggestions / Encoding Help

Post by kramerdk »

I hoping someone can help me out or at least point me in the right direction.

I have three major TV viewing areas.
1) Living room - Xbox 360
2) Bedroom - PS3 or Sony Bravia TV
3) Basement - Sony BDP-S570 Blu-ray player

I've got sickbeard and sabnzbd working together to d/l the content I'm looking for. The problem comes with the MKV files. I can get Windows to support the MKV format, but the PS3 and Sony BDP-S570 don't support MKV. Haven't been able to get the mkv file to play on the Xbox either but that's probably fixable.

I tsmux'ed several of the mkv files to m2ts and they play great on the PS3 and BDP-S570 through Windows Media Center ("WMC"). However, the m2ts format looked like crap on the Xbox 360.

So is there is a file format that works with DLNA complaint devices like the BDP-S570 and PS3 that will also work with the Xbox 360? If so, is it possible to script said change in the sabnzbd post scripting process?

Thanks,
