Note that I have yet to change the source frame rate to 24fps as suggested and so far so good. Ive been planning to do a test of a 20min segment since this is when its supposed to stutter.

I just gave it a test and it is noticeably BETTER when you set the *SOURCE* frame rate to 24fps as suggested by the guide. It doesn't make much sense why you have to do it, but you definitely should.

You can try XVID4PSP to encode to a format for the 360 and PS3. You can use this in conujunction with the other tools to rip the subtitles.

I use Video Encoder, http://videoencoder.codeplex.com/

Hey there Rodoga,

I ran through what you suggested for doing this all from the command line and it worked AWESOME for my 29.970 frame rate mkv files but for my 23.976 mkvs it seems to only encode the audio and ignore the video, even though Mediainfo says that the video is there and at the correct frame rate...

Any idea why I'm running into this and what might solve it? It's very consistant.

Thanks again for your awesome command line based solution!!! I plan on wrapping it into a perl script so that I can have it run through a whole directory worth of stuff.

On a slightly different not a guy named darick created this gui wrapper for the same process you created called Video Encoder, as seen here: http://videoencoder.codeplex.com/

It too works GREAT for someone that doesn't want to mess with the command line. Unfortunately for me it has the same results as your command line batch file.

Any ideas would be very welcome, thanks again!

And apparently I totally forgot where I got the link to go get Video Encoder and as it turns out it's the post directly above my post which pretty much makes me look like moron... :-P

If I could edit it out of my post I would but since I can't I'll post this instead!

Thanks crazyshiza! Video Encoder rocks!

More information!
When I installed CoreAVC for doing the h.264 encoding and AC3 Filter for the AC3 it no longer glitches but the ending video is both glitchy with audio and video.

If I remove the subtitle track from the original MKV file then I can correctly redo with just FFDShow but I don't know whether or not that is going to correct my Audio/Video glitching issues.

Anyone have some suggestions regarding the audio/video glitching?

Thanks!!

Turns out that all my video/audio jitter issues were cause by a bad Window Media Encoder audio profile.

Thanks,

Hi All,

If I convert my .mkv movie to 360 ready WMV-HD using this tutorial, will the video and audio quality be the same as the original mkv file?

Thanks,
K.

I've seen this tutorial elsewhere and tried it several times but every time when I load the avs file in TMPG it gives me some strange movie details: 10 sec runtime and strange resolutions ( 604x56, 576x80 etc ). I am able to load the .mkv directly but first I want to add subtitles trough avisynth and second when I try to encode the mkv, the process hangs either at the beginning or around the middle.

If it doesn't HAVE to be WMV then try this. I'm using MPEG Streamclip (it's cross platform and free at www.squared5.com) to extract the audio and video tracks separately using the Save Track function. Then open them both in Quicktime, select all and copy the audio track, then Edit/Add to Movie adding the audio track to the video, then saved it as an mp4. Plays on Xbox 360 and is very quick because it's not converting video, just doing sort of a demux.

I'm finding this to be a nightmare. I'm wanting to convert H.264 into a format comaptable with the 360. All the original links to download the necessary files for the tutorial are out of date. I have searched everywhere and the only success i've had in converting h.264 to a 360 format has been with encodeHD and even that gave me an out of sync video. Can anybody please help me in this task.

Thanks in advance

Im brand new to encoding and i dont quite understand this step, is there any possible way someone can help me out with the first step?

1. Extract the contents of the attached file. This tutorial assumes you have extracted the file to the root of your E: drive, so you'll be working from e:\wmv_working\ If this is not the case, you'll need to open the movie.avs file in Notepad and change the directory. Copy your source MKV file to your \wmv_working\ directory and rename it to movie.mkv

i wanna learn how to do this!
