Version 1.6.9 not compatable with WD Live TV

Post by Go Canucks Go » Sun May 29, 2011 3:40 pm

Have been using MakeMKV for a while with great success. I use the program to convert DVD to MKV format for my WD Live TV box. Upgraded to new version yesterday and now my WD Live TV can not read the MKV files? WD TV Live indicates the file is not the correct format?

Not sure what changed since the last version?

I upgraded the WD Live TV firmware to latest version and still it can not read the MKV file from MaleMKV version 1.6.9 for Windows. I'm running Windows 7 - 64 bit. Up to version 1.6.9 the program has been excellent!

This is a bug, it is being looked into:

For now you can just remux the streams with MKVmergeGUI (from the MKVToolnix package) and the MKV's will work again on your WD TV.

Hello,

I am also experiencing OP's problem i.e. incompatability with my WD TV live box.

I'm afraid that files made with 1.6.10 don't work either - I have tried two this evening, neither working.

If I can help (e.g. attempting to play test files?) please let me know.

Cheers,
D.
