yep, it really is easier to setup than it sounds, and it works as advertised. Now if only we could integrate it a little better in to the MCE experience, maybe even a My Divx tab on the home screen?
thanks for the app/method. it'll tide me over until we can get something a little cleaner, hopefully without the need to re-encode.
It pains me so the way it is currently. It's impossible to beat XBMC for its compatability with various media, but the MCE extender has the TV stuff thats just as important to me. I'm one format away from console nirvana.
Anyway, does anyone know of an app that will do clean batch divx to wmv conversion? The windows media encoder works fine for me for streaming like this setup, but always screws up or crashes during conversion, and it really isn't the nicest interface for doing a bunch of conversions. I would use videora and go with mpeg2 but it is messing up the aspect ratio of my videos, which is inexcusable.
i guess what I would love is a mce based "Convert these videos to WMV" in Other Programs.
anwyay, keep up the good work!
