Has anyone successfully used VC-1 codec?

Using 2.5mbps VBR constrained, size 1280x720 (HD), 23.976 fps, WMA 9.2 at 44.1hz and 96kbps; using Microsoft expression coder 3. Is Advanced Profile VC-1 working for anyone else?

[update]
I believe VC-1 HD streaming is currently broken.

Re: Has anyone successfully used VC-1 codec?

Hi,
I have pretty much the same settings.. and I have the same issue as well.

I believe Netflix is using VC1 and I am sure it should play.. and I missing anyparticular settings. I've turned on the IsHD flag to true.

Any update on this from Roku?

Regards

Re: Has anyone successfully used VC-1 codec?

i'm also having problems getting HD VC1 encoded videos to play on our test Roku box. debug output shows "Video request failure: -3 0". at this point i'm not quite sure what the problem is, but we're playing around with various encoding options. at this point all we've gotten the roku to play is SD quality mp4 files... if anybody has gotten VC1 to work i'd be interested to hear what they encoded the files with and what options....
