Xbox

I want to know the specs to create Xbox-friendly video.

According to specs for the 360 here, here's what I can find out, that I want and would encode to:

• MP4
• H.264
• High 4.1
• 480p30
• Stereo AAC
• Embedded artwork at a max of 512k

Assuming the playback software is very picky, I wouldn't add chapters.

With that in mind, here's the simplest HandBrake encoding I'd use:

HandBrakeCLI --optimize --encoder x264 --quality 23 --encoder-profile high --encoder-level 4.1 --encoder-preset slow --audio 1 --aencoder fdk_aac -s none
