Help converting MKV to MP4 to play on PS3


Hi all,

I am having trouble converting MKV to MP4 to play on the PS3. I have tried just about every method I have found in this thread but have had absolutely no luck.

If i try a manual based method, like the first solution on the first page I get errors like:
Code:
Playing audio.ac3.
libavformat file format detected.
[mp3 @ 0x8804c54]Could not find codec parameters (Audio: mp1, 192 kb/s)
LAVF_header: av_find_stream_info() failed
libavformat file format detected.
[mp3 @ 0x8804c54]Could not find codec parameters (Audio: mp1, 192 kb/s)
LAVF_header: av_find_stream_info() failed
If I use the perl script on the second to the last page, it seems to be successful but when I try to play it on the PS3 it tells me that it is corrupted data.

Any ideas or any other methods?

Thanks!
George

I believe the video is already mp4 within the MKV container:
Code:
|  + Track number: 1
|  + Track UID: 1
|  + Track type: video
|  + Enabled: 1
|  + Default flag: 1
|  + Forced flag: 0
|  + Lacing flag: 0
|  + MinCache: 1
|  + Timecode scale: 1.000000
|  + Max BlockAddition ID: 0
|  + Codec ID: V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC
|  + Codec decode all: 1
|  + CodecPrivate, length 40
|  + Default duration: 41.708ms (23.976 fps for a video track)
|  + Language: eng
|  + Video track
|   + Pixel width: 1280
|   + Pixel height: 720
|   + Interlaced: 0
|   + Display width: 16
|   + Display height: 9
