Hi all
I hope this is a dumb newbee question with a simple answer. I've followed guide and have successfully ripped Blu ray disk to HDD using anydvd, Used tSMuxer to mux audio and video into .m2ts file about 21 GB in size. Plays with Powerdvd and audio sync is OK. Next I tried to make a blu ray output file with tsmuxer and it creates the BDMV and certificate folders as expected. Next I tried to create an .ISO file using ImgBurn and it creates OK but Powerdvd tells me it is an unsupported format and won't play it. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong?
Thanks

Make sure the iso is UDF 2.5 or else it will not play. Also, are you mounting the image to a virtual drive, or trying to open the iso with PowerDVD?

This may have been asked before. Do you guys think there ever will be a all in one program that makes out right copies of Blu-Rays?

Yes UDF 2.5 and yes Daemon tools to mount iso. Also when powerdvd sees it as a bluray disk but won't play it

Yeah, it is true. However I've only tested it out on a TV show, not a movie. I've also heard not all AVC level 5.1 clips work.

Mostly limitations; bit rate, resolution, encoding properties, etc. 5.1 is more robust than 4.1.

Thanks.
You can use tsMuxeR with AnyDVDHD running in the background.
What is that mean?

I am new to the forum and was wondering if there was a step-by-step guide to backing up blu ray movies for viewing on PS3. I am planning to use a NAS box for storing the ripped movies and AnyDVD HD to rip the movies.

If you have a trial or full working version of AnyDVD HD working (the little Fox icon in your system tray), you can pick & choose just the main movie and whatever audio/sub streams you want to rip. Just remux to either m2ts or Blu-Ray.

As-is; no.
I'm assuming you want either m2ts or Blu-ray, if that is the case then you have two options.
1. Convert the DTS to AC3, and remux to m2ts. This will allow you to avoid recoding due to exceeding the capacity for a DVD9 and a non BD resolution.
or
2. Recode to fit a DVD9 and resize to a BD compliant resolution and you can keep DTS. I prefer this method, although a little more time consuming.

I have a M2TS file on my PC but the PS3 won't pick it up on the network.
Tried renaming it to everything and it still won't pick it up. Pikc sup everything else fine.
Also, I tried burning to disc, the movie won't play. I can fast forward and see the movie but it won't play on its own.
I used TsMuxer and converted the video to 4.1
I dont know what else to try....help ?

The problem is that I can't find 00000.m2ts file (which should be the biggest file as the main movie), all I'm finding is something like 00003.m2ts or 00010.m2ts
And these files on bluray disc are aprox. 1-2 GB max. And main movie should be 25-40 GB in size, right?
This "pick and choose" you mean with tsMuxeR?

The main movie isn't neccesarily 00000.m2ts, it could be any number. It is however the largest file, it could also be a combination of files.
"Sort" the files by size (instead of by name), that way the largest will be first. When you figure out the main which file is the main movie, remove that one from tsMuxeR and open the corresponding MPLS file in the Playlist folder, this way, if there are several files to the main movie it will tell which ones and what order.

If you have a 3.1 level H264, is it ok to change it to 4.1 or should I just leave it as it is (3.1)?

This thread (and also the other one in my signature) contains most of the information you need to do this, although admittedly reading through these long threads could be quite time consuming.
I have been meaning to write a guide for quite some time now but I just haven't found the time. I did make a start and that was about all I did.
I will try to do one soon but I can't promise as I am quite busy.
In the mean time if you have any questions, just post them here. That's what I made this thread for. :-)

Ryu77, great to hear from you... it's been a while, you must be busy. I have a few questions;
1. What is your preferred method of demuxing, tsMuxeR or eac3to?
2. Is quality retained better by using either one of the apps, or does it matter.
3. Does decoding take place during demuxing?
Later, O!

Thanks for the reply.I used AnyDVD HD to rip the blu ray movie to my hard drive.I then provided the largest file(.m2ts) in the STREAM folder as the input to txmuxergui.I selected M2TS muxing as the output and started muxing.The resultant file is not recognized by my PS3.I put the file on my NAS box and am using the PS3 to access the media server (NAS box).
Appreciate the patience.

What was the source? Download? Rip? It is possibly the source was a bad file.
