Xbox 360 5.1 channel transcoding problem
Posted: Mon Apr 29, 2013 8:36 pmI'm having the exact same issue as this post here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7487&p=53101
However, either the ticket didn't come to fruition or the fix didn't work as I'm on the latest version of serviio. Windows 8 x64
The file I'm having issues with has the following ffmpeg -i output
Since the error I'm getting from my xbox 360 is that the audio is the problem, and this is backed up by the above forum post, I manually transcoded with ffmpeg and the following command:
The -strict -2 params are required because of an apparent experimental aac support in ffmepg.
Once I'd completed the transcoding (the default q=31 is horrible, but it proved the theory) the video played from my xbox.
