hi

How do convert 1080p mkv to 720p mkv (also maybe with subtitles track or audio track?)

My TV doesn't support 1080p (gutted)

I have mucked about converting XVID files in the past and it got a bit stressful
with files being 99GB after a 10 hour convert (you know the story)
and then playing with frame jumping at regular intervals that sort of thing.
also installing 100s of apps that i don't 100% understand on my system.

So I'm looking for a kind of 'one click' 'it actually works option'
also some files may have subtitles or audio tracks.

Is there a good straight forward option out there

Cheers in advance

This works - but you have to have AviSynth, FFDSHOW and Haali Media Splitter installed.

Load the 1080p and select the nearest to 720 width.

Thanks for the links :)

I am trying it out now

I have Klite codec pack installed do i need to install the other programs?
(AviSynth, FFDSHOW and Haali Media Splitter)

i ran the program and 'queued' and 'started' a convert
the video in the program was a bit like it wasn't playing
but queue and convert worked (does that mean i have AviSynth, FFDSHOW and Haali Media Splitter installed?)

Whats the harm it I install them again

quick update 2:

I converted the files worked brilliantly


I'm using a Sumvision Cyclone 2 Media player




http://is.gd/JKBne9

I thought my TV only did 720p.

I had tried to play a 1080p file when i first got the player.

but when i played the converted files today I had left the original 1080p file in the folder and it played WTF?

So I didn't need to convert after all......

it it possible that my sumvision cyclone 2 or TV can play some 1080p and not others.............. or am i haviing another stupid year again?

Glad it works.
As to the black borders, if the source doesn't have a border, the output won't either .
If the source has an aspect ratio that isn't 16:9 it would have a border (like a movie that is 2.4:1) then you select a resize that is closest - that would be 1280/2.4=532.
You get a 1280 x 532 with bars that take it to 1280 x 720.

There's a support forum here - but I guess you don't need it now.

Thanks attar

Its making more sense today :)

I joined the programs forum so i can ask the dev if i have any questions (it seems pretty straight forward though)

The conversions were spot on.

Thanks for the advice/links :)
