+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted January 20, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted January 20, 2009 As was said on the last page though, you can just copy them to your PS3 through the network. Instead of pusing x to play the file, push triangle, then copy :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+StevoFC MVC Posted January 20, 2009 MVC Share Posted January 20, 2009 Up the transcoding buffer in the program to a larger size. that may help the stuttering problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted January 20, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted January 20, 2009 Just run the MKV through MKV2VOB and copy the resulting file to the PS3 hard drive - https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...view=getnewpost (last two posts have links). It turns MKVs into videos files that will playback natively on the PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bishy Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 ok, guess i'll have to wait with streaming mkv's till i finally get myself a new macbook Erm 'laptop' I'm afraid not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted January 20, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted January 20, 2009 Erm 'laptop' I'm afraid not. the program does what it's supposed to do, but for some reason mkv (720p) files are stuttery, i've got everything connected over cable, so speed should not be an issue. my laptop has pretty poor specs though and i can't really view mkv's on my laptop locally either, does that have to do with it not running good? Saying your getting a new macbook doesn't mean you have one right now. But jeez, whatever, next time I'll not post any other solutions in case you Mac owners get offended :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remysaus Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 yeah i'm still on xp, laptop is 4 years old now and wasn't anything good back then so it's really **** now :p anyhow, converting mkv to vob takes such a long time on this system that it's not really worth the effort. putting the transcoding buffer higher makes the program crash here :p oh well, guess I just have to keep watching my stuff in SD quality, worked good enough so far :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishy Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 @ Audioboxer..........I apologise for my post no. 159.

+StevoFC MVC Posted January 20, 2009 MVC Share Posted January 20, 2009 Oh by the way, I just watched The Rocker (an mkv) with this program on my iMac and it worked perfectly. 5.1 channel audio and video quality was great.

way2quik Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 nice piece of software. however, for anime, i have stutters with the opening theme and the ending theme for a few. 1080p videos require extensive buffering. i also do not mind being my CPU needing high power usage. This is much better than tversity. Totally ditched it for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewmarley Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Just tried this for the first time tonight and i have to admit i am very impressed. The only thing i dont like is the extra folders that it creates along with my shared folders. i.e. Web, Media Libary and Video Settings. Can these be removed ?

Sethos Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Stupid question here, when choosing the amount of cores it's able to use, is it okay to pick say all 8 ( Which it 'sees' ) on the Intel i7 when 4 of them are just multi-thread cores or should you just stick to 4?
