As the two most commented posts on my site show, people are really interested in getting their high-definition MKV files to play on the Xbox 360. Unfortunately, the existing GOTsent utility isn’t working out as a complete solution, and complicates the situation by trying to cater to PlayStation 3 users.
I’ve developed a tool [...]
Update: MKVOfDeath now has a new name: XenonMKV – and a new site to match. It’s also ready for use and is open-source under the General Public License. Please post any questions, compliments, comments or flames in the XenonMKV Forum. Comments are now closed on this post. Thanks to everyone who’s helped out so far!

Also tagged gotsent, h.264, hdtv, movies, utilities, x264Up until this point, Inside Xbox (a new feature of the Fall 2007 dashboard update) was restricted to American and UK accounts – although not ISP-locked, since my American profile could access the content with no problem.

Also taggedUpdate 03-30-2008: If you follow this tutorial and find that GOTsent isn’t for you, please check out XenonMKV, a custom utility I’ve written to replace this process.

And the sound. What an experience. The [...]
As per Major Nelson’s post:
The free update will introduce several significant features, bug fixes and updates based on user feedback, including Xbox LIVE Vision Camera support (player bankrolls will not be reset with this update).
Now with live video, players can put on their best poker face and [...]
This conference call transcript should explain everything, as well as Larry Hyrb’s podcast feed.
When they have to bring in Peter Moore to explain things, plus offer a $1 billion-plus loss on financial statements, you KNOW that there was something seriously wrong that Todd Holmdahl couldn’t weasel his way out of.
From Xbox-Scene: Dean Takahashi interviewed Todd Holmdahl about alleged Xbox 360 failure rates. Holmdahl is the “corporate vice president of Gaming and Xbox Products Group”, and effectively has NOTHING meaningful to answer during the interview. He also fails to answer questions that have even already been answered in public. The issue at hand is the [...]

My traffic’s been up this month. I guess people are either reading this site, or a certain BecomeBot has been ruining my bandwidth.
I’ll have to put a few updates in, but I clearly had to check my statistics again. One of the wonderful [...]
I’ve decided to take a look at my Webalizer statistics for the months of April and May to figure out what people are searching for. It also helps me tailor the content on this ugly green and beige page to what people might be interested in.
If you’ve got a question about something I’ve written, or [...]
