When ripping BD's I normally rip to PS3hd which is perfectly good quality for my needs. I've been 'experimenting' with MKV which streams well over a WDTV Live hub, but the PS3 mpeg seems to be a better quality picture - All subjective of course) --- As the PS3 will not stream MKV, I have been using a well known freeware program to convert the MKV file to VOB and this has worked well with a few exceptions. So, I've been trying out the DVDFab Converter to try to convert the MKV file to VOB Passthrough to try it out on the PS3, sadly without any success - It imports the MKV file and then when I press start ..... Nothing at all happens, it just sits there doing nothing. It has'nt frozen, it just is'nt doing anything -- MKV to PS3 converter seems to work ok (but only with software in the AV codecs selected -- It fails if CUDA selected) --- --- Any help or suggestions would be welcome -- Thanks
