I see now that chapters for Matroska is in the svn, but i cant seem to get them to work. I bring up the dvdplayer osd & try to jump to a chapter & it takes me back to my videos page.

Tried playing it with mplayer & dvdplayer

I checked my test video & the chapters work fine using vlc media player on the pc.

I have i missed something ?

Matroska chapters are not yet supported under XBMC for Xbox, only for XBMC for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows, ...or?

try to use 'Long Seek' (dpad Up)=Chapter fwd, see if that makes a difference
afaik, We no longer rely on >| in OSD to change chapter

What are the chances of getting this into the xbox build?

I don't even have the xbox controller, I only use the remote, so how would I do chapter fwd with that?

In a DVD, using DVDPlayer, I use the >| key on my remote control (Yamaha Home Theater remote programmed for RCA DVD Player) and it skips forward to the next chapter.

Is this not the way it works in the other builds?

Well, i initially didn't add it that way. Up/Down skips chapters instead of doing large seeks when file supports chapter.

I've now also added so the >| works fine for non dvd's with chapters, which didn't work before.

Thanks elupus.

The "up/down" works well on my xbox, I just didn't know how to do it.

I think the >| will be nice too, though.
