Xtreamer latest firmware now support compression header mkv means u dont have to remux your file.

XT Side and XT Pro is using different chip but from same family (Realtek), XT Side has lesser RAM then XT Pro. U need to ran thru some info before buying. or suggest u save up money and go straight to high end NMT like Dune Prime.

I'm not sure its different chip as I believe they using the same Realtek 1283x just that like u said its have lesser RAM...

NMT Dune Prime cost a bomb... can't afford that T.T...

i also got problem playing some mkv files....stuck and the beginning and have to switch off the wdtv live and wait few hours to play other file....

i already dload the haali media splitter software so which option shld i enabled/disabled ? tried 1 file yesterday leave with default option, can play the file for few seconds only before it stop and back to the selection screen

Try remuxing with mkvtoolnix v4.0, don't get the latest one starting from 4.1.1

already got mkvtoolnix v 4.o....so which option should i tick/untick ? if got no audio i know just change compression to none for every sound option

I'm not sure about this, I never really had problems with mkv stuck at beginning of movies
Can you pm me the list and mediainfo for those movies with problems?

ok will pm u when i reach home...thanks ya

how to get the mediainfo?

Try 'Uncheck' all the Subtitle and unwanted Audio...using Haali...the movie should work.
If the main cause is the Subtitle...use a Subtitle editor to do the corrections and remux it back in the movie...again using Haali.

Thanks for all suggestion, advice and ideas...

I've decided to move my PC near my LCD TV and run Media Center with updated codec through HDMI for sound I'll use onboard Gigabyte Dolby Home Theater and connect to my Bookshelf speaker Edifier R2000.

Thanks again thus closing this topic.
