Streaming HD via xbox 360

Post by triniwasp »

Hi Yall

Has anyone streamed any HD content to their 360? I'm going to try once I get the file I need. It will ultimately be 7 TS files? Not sure what I'll need to do at that point, but I've downloaded HDTV pump and Matroska Splitter and installed them. I allegedly need them to play the file on my computer, but I'm not sure about streaming. Will I have to convert the files into a single WMV file? If so will it still be HD?

Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

Nope, I do it through computer.

ts is transport stream, it's raw format.I dont know what you recorded but in a case you got there commercials cut them off using videoredo.
Never worked with WMV but I do believe you will downgrade it.

Thanks, Rivas, for whatever reason, videoredo wouldn't recognize the video stream. Non-the-less I've got the thing playing in Vista, but real slow with choppy audio. I guess it's time to build another system, P4 ain't cutting it anymore. I'll try streaming it to my xbox next. Stand by....

Ok, so I cannot stream to Vista in TS form, must convert to dvr-ms. Problem is VideoRedo says that the file isn't an MPEG stream, which isn't true because it played on WMP after downloading HDTVPump and Matroska Splitter.

The TS files in questions came with a bunch of PAR2 Files, so perhaps there is an error somewhere, using QuickPar as we speak....

I have some MKV files that are "hd" and i looked into streaming them. I saw that some had luck with tversity but looked like a TON of trial and error for subpar performance most of the time.

Im just gonna build a new pc and convert this one over to a HTPC. much easier and can play 'any' format. ;)

Ya, I wasted a bunch of time for nothing on this BS, really standard dvd's look great and now that HDDVD is all but dead, I'll be watching HD movies when I buy a PS3.

When that will be is a matter of conjecture :D
