Apparantly stuff encoded with DivX 3.1(1?) can't be played on the PS3.

I downloaded some divx file to test and of course it doesn't play on my PS3. Sigh.

I am pretty sure 5.1 works with Mp4 AVC .. just encode with that. If it is something you found on the net.. then I have not tried it myself.

I watched a video last night coded with the 5.1 and it sounded fantastic. I love the Divx compatibility.

From my experience, MP4 "containers" cannot hold 5.1 audio, but apparently the AVI "container" (divx) can.

I need to convert MKV files to divx, but can't find mac software that can do this easy for me.

I looked into Divx on my Mac for a bit..but with the 2gb file size limit it doesn't work for me. I convert all my dvds to Mp4 and to retain dvd quality some times they are a little over 2gb.

Handbrake can take dvds to mp4 and it says Doly Logic Pro which is 5.1 I believe. PS3 still reads it as 2ch.. but i do not have a 5.1 setup.

Visual Hub my friend. Yeah its $20 but look around the Mac sites, all of them love it and so do i. The best converting program for the Mac bar Compressor.
