I have both Plex and XMBC on my Mac Mini media server and they are incredibly frustrating. The menu screens are never ending. I keep finding more. And setting one setting can change what you had another setting set to. It's like trying to juggle keeping everything going smoothly.
Lately, I have been trying to play PAL video MKV files created by MakeMKV on my NTSC system. Plex stutters. XMBC gives combing artifacts. If I transcode using HandBrake, it comes out smooth as silk. Why is the re-encoded copy cleaner than the original? Don't ask me.
Frustration.
