Still no mac app dedicated to mkv conversion for Xbox 360?

[roderick]

I hope someone can let me know something because as far as I've seen there still is not a mac app like XenonMKV or Gotsent for Windows that converts mkv to mp4 (without a long re-encode) and is compatible with the Xbox 360. Quicktime's passthrough method is fast but it doesn't always result in a file that the 360 can playback. Never had success with visual hub. Is there still not a mac app that is a "one stop shop" for this? I've seriously been looking for over a year and it seems something like this would be large in demand by Mac and Xbox 360 owners.

Have you tried handbrake?
It should encode it faster, but I´m not sure about the xbox playback.
Also, the transcoder in Vuze is suppose to deal with mkv files as well, but I've yet to try it yet.

There's an Xbox option in Handbrake.

Ok but i thought Handbrake re-encodes the video which takes hours. Quicktime's passthrough conversion only takes 10-15 min but again, it doesn't always work with the 360.
