Playback on Xbox One

Post by DELTAsnake » Thu Oct 16, 2014 2:21 am

The Xbox One's update to allow playback of MKV files has just been released. I've tested it's playback with some DVD based files I made with MakeMKV and found that works fine. I'm wondering if anyone knows if the Xbox One can now playback MKV files made in MakeMKV from a Blu-ray without any transcoding, down res-ing, etc?

There doesn't seem to be any subtitle support, or VC-1 or DTS or even TrueHD so you'll need to run anything VC-1 through handbrake and transcode any audio NOT AC3 (Dolby Digital) or PCM TOO AC3 or PCM (or AAC) using MakeMKV.

No chapter support either...

Should I write an X-box profile?
