Getting black screen when trying to resume on xbox 360.

Figured it out. I had my xbox audio settings set to Stereo. Changing it to 5.1 with wma pro or whatever it is, fixed the issue.

I've tried setting the maximum audio channels to 2 and that allows it to play the files that I've re-encoded to 2 channel. But that doesn't solve the problem of playing 6 channel mkvs.

A TV?

Yes. And I've figured out what it is. Apparently the transcoder has a problem with files that have 6 channel audio. If I re-encode the file to 2 channel it works fine (although my encoder is borked and makes the frame rate choppy)

I haven't been able to play mkv files on my xbox 360 since version 2.0.0. I have attached my debug files for version 2.5.0

Reverted back to 2.0.0 and it works again.

I get this error when trying to play mkvs.
