STEPHAN LINKE  So give me your mail adress, so I can send it to you :)  
(Version 0.6)

STEPHAN LINKE  I could give you the actual commands executed by the program during the conversion. Guess that's all you need?  
(Version 0.6)

STEPHAN LINKE  I guess, there won't be a version for powerPC since I only have an intel based mac. Maybe I'll add support for it, but don't get your hopes up :/ sorry  
(Version 0.6)

STEPHAN LINKE  Working Fine here?  
(Version 0.6)

STEPHAN LINKE  DTS Support will come with 0.6. I'll hopefully be able to finish it until weekend :)  
(Version 0.55)

STEPHAN LINKE  I'll have a look into a batch conversion (maybe this weekend or next week). Guess it will be like visualhub.

But first, I gotta get DTS to work ;)  
(Version 0.55)

STEPHAN LINKE  my email adress is stephan.linke[at]screamink.com

I'm sure we can fix this ;)  
(Version 0.5)

STEPHAN LINKE  Is this the case for any MKV file you try to convert?

If not, please provide specific information about the MKV file (make a screenshot from mkv4xbox with loaded infos and upload it)

Please answer the following questions:

1. Filename?

2. Path to File?

3. Target Path?

4. Size of the MKV?

5. You want to split (yes/no)?

6. Do you enter the values by yourself or do you use get mkv info

7. How long does it approximately take until you get to the error?

8. How big is the .ac3 file?

9. How big is the .x264 file?

10. How far does it go? Do you have growl installed? It shows you the current progress (converting, muxxing ... )

Please give me some details, otherwise I can't reproduce the error. I tried the tool with many MKVs under any circumstance (weird filenames and paths and so on) and it always worked out fine.  
(Version 0.5)

STEPHAN LINKE  Please provide more information :) Can you load the MKV into MKV4XBox, press the (get mkv info) button and give me a screenshot of it? You can upload it to tinypic or imageshack.

What's the actual size of the MKV itself?

Have you tried to use the original bitrates of the mkv file? You can do this by clicking get mkv info. The values will be set automatically.  
(Version 0.5)

STEPHAN LINKE  With this option, you're able to add subs as an extra track to the mp4 file. The subs aren't hardcoded, you can enable/disable them in VLC via menu "video" > subtitles > deactivate.

But sadly, the xbox360 won't recognize the subtitles. From what I've read it's an encoding problem of the subs and they need to be converted into a special format. As if this wouldn't be enough, you need to patch the converted subtitles again.

Maybe I'll add support for that in later versions, but only if it's actually possible :)

I'm glad it's working for you now (or isn't it?), I applied some fixes to the handling of paths.   
(Version 0.5)

STEPHAN LINKE  Sorry for the faulty update (a path in the installer was corrupted). The version that is now online should work fine! Enjoy =)  
(Version 0.5)

STEPHAN LINKE  mkvextract always outputs to the user-folder, I haven't figure out how to set the output path for that. After the successful extraction the files get moved to the target folder.  
(Version 0.1.2.1b)

STEPHAN LINKE  I fixed some path related hickups in the application (folder names with spaces didn't work). The paths are all quoted now, so there should be no path errors anymore.

Tried it yesterday with files who had "´" and "&" in their names. There was no problem converting, even with spaces in the path. Maybe this one will work for you.

Another thing that came to my mind - are the permissions for /Library/Application Support/MKV4XBox set correctly? Maybe MKV4XBox can't read

/Library/Application Support/MKV4XBox/Tools/mkvpatch, which would explain the stalling after extracting. I use 777 for the MKV4XBox folder, maybe you can give it a shot :)  
(Version 0.1.2.1b)

STEPHAN LINKE  1. I think you're right. I'll try to set the application to ~/Library, but thats actually not really smart since every user on a machine will have it's own set of tools.

2. Can you try converting a file on your local harddrive? Set your target folder to your Desktop for example and copy the mkv to your internal harddrive. Maybe the timeout is too low for external drives. Gotta look into this.

But the /Library/Application Support/MKV4XBox does indeed exist, right? Including the directories "Tools" and "Frameworks"  
(Version 0.1.2b)

STEPHAN LINKE  If you're non-privileged, then you're unable to create the directory for MKV4XBox in the /Library/Application Support/ directory of your drive. Maybe I should consider copying it to ~/Library, gotta try this at home first.

How big is the MKV file you're trying to convert? If I remember correctly (can't look at the source now), the timeout for extracting is set to 3600 seconds (=1h). This shouldn't cause the error. Maybe your drive just "sleeps" after a while so mkvextract can't finish?

Please try the following:

1. Use your Desktop as target folder

2. Copy the MKV to your local drive and use it as source file

The /Library/Application-Support/MKV4XBox directory and it's tools+frameworks does indeed exist, right?

  
(Version 0.1.2b)

STEPHAN LINKE  1. What error do you get while setup?

2. What directory are you using as target folder?

3. What's the path to the source file?

It may be stalled because of the switcheroo of audio and video track inside the mkv. Can you look into the file with MKVToolNix and tell me how the tracks are arranged? Currently MKV4XBox assumes track 1 as video and track 2 as audio.

Please be more specific so I can have a detailed look at the errors :)  
(Version 0.1.2b)

STEPHAN LINKE  v0.1.2b is not limited to 2GB files anymore since it comes bundled with a fixed:)  
(Version 0.1.2b)

STEPHAN LINKE  2gb bug now fixed! :)  
(Version 0.1.2)

STEPHAN LINKE  As I just stumbled upon this very annoying bug, I can confirm the 2gb error. It just hangs, even with the newest 0.4.6-DEV (if it is the newest).

Gotta find an alternative to mp4box (or a version that's working ;) ) *sigh*  
(Version 0.1.1)
