Audio and video out of sync

Plex Players Gaming Consoles
21

On my side i still have the same issue. The mp3 are playing with delay. I have started to convert a few to AC3 since they don’t seem to care for the Xbox 360 users.

22

I found a solution…

  1. enter Xbox 360
  2. movies & TV
  3. system video player *** make sure to use this and not the Plex app
  4. Plex Media server
  5. movies or TV
  6. select the folder you want and play

No out of sync issues for me

The following command currently works on plex media server on linux - it will remove mp3 from the xbox 360 direct stream profile.
gawk -i inplace ‘{gsub(/codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,mp3”/,“codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac””);gsub(/codec=“h264,mpeg4” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp3,pcm”/,“codec=“h264,mpeg4” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,pcm””);gsub(/codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp3,mp2,pcm”/,“codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm””);gsub(/codec=“mpeg4,msmpeg4v3,mjpeg” audioCodec=“mp3,ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm”/,“codec=“mpeg4,msmpeg4v3,mjpeg” audioCodec=“ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm””);print}’ “/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Profiles/Xbox 360 App.xml”; gawk -i inplace ‘{gsub(/codec=“mpeg4” audioCodec=“ac3,mp3”/,"codec=“mpeg4” audioCodec=“ac3"”);print}’ “/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Profiles/Xbox 360.xml”

Using win 7 as a server

But you loose all Plex feature like that, no more sorting or poket pictures.

What is the end result ?

  • All video with mp3 will not be showned on Xbox 360 ?
  • Or it will force Plex to convert MP3 audio track to AC3 ?

Thanks

Is there any way an admin can merge these threads? They are all the same problem, and we’re cross posting to ask and answer the same question.

I have the same problem, just installed Plex, so disappointing after all the effort of ripping a DVD and downloading Plex. Day long drama and then not the best outcome. Look forward to someone telling me how to sort this

Version 0.9.16.6 works, no news on any fix for later server versions

Maybe a solution for Windows but not for Linux.
Have the same issue - massive lag between audio and video - gap of approx. 10sek - not funny.
Does someone know whats up with this app on the 360? Last update from August 2015(!)
So it seems not longer supported - bad :confused:
