Xbox 360 Xvid and DivX support explained, thoroughly
Quote:
With the Xbox 360 Fall Update set to land today, one of the key features implemented is DivX support. Yet, it hasn't been made entirely clear whether or not DivX will actually be supported. Will it or won't it? The Xbox Team steps forward and answers all our questions, and then some.

Re: Xbox 360 Xvid and DivX support explained, thoroughly
still enormously disappointed by just how limited the support is in practice - limited containers, which can only use limited codecs, with no cross-mixing (e.g. no h264 allowed other than in .mov form)
Re: Xbox 360 Xvid and DivX support explained, thoroughly
I really dont know why you are unhappy with h264 support. Not sure what you mean by just mov files.
I tried various differant formats and apart from ts files the rest have all played including h264
I think this has been a great update, no more transcoding changing from xvid to dvd/wmv files.
All we need now is the Media Center update to be able to use the newer support formats in MCE.
But otherwise a good job by MS, not often we say that. PS3 still has no xvid support:)
What exactly does the Xbox 360 support for H.264?
Xbox 360 supports the following for H.264:
· File Extensions: .mp4, .m4v, mp4v, .mov
· Containers: MPEG-4, QuickTime
· Video Profiles: Baseline, main, and high (up to Level 4.1) profiles.
· Video Bitrate: 10 Mbps with resolutions of 1920 x 1080 at 30fps. See question number 11 for more information.
· Audio Profiles: 2 channel AAC low complexity (LC)
· Audio Max Bitrate: No restrictions. See question number 11 for more information.

Can't get many Divx's or Xvids to work despite the update, only one has worked so far, its a nice touch they just need to expand on it.

as SPECIFICALLY mentioned in your post, it will only play h264 content in a quicktime container. that's what i mean. it won't play h264 in other containers, like, say, AVI or OGM
