Try this out, http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=149160
The author is really friendly and will help out if you get stuck... he's really crafty when it comes to these video processing tools (check out multiAVCHD... and you'll see what I mean).
Good luck.
Firstly, thanks for the prompt reply.
Second, I'll look into multiAVCHD and report my results later on today. Thanks again!
First try what I linked you to... then multiAVCHD, thet are two totally different apps. I think his subtitle processing application is also part of multiAVCHD too though :)

Back again, seeking help of a different kind, yet related to the same project I was working on previously.
After having taken odin24's advice, futzing around with easySUP and multiAVCHD, I managed to find a program that worked even better than easySUP (at least in this instance; easySUP gave me a litany of errors during the conversion) called PunkGraphicStream. I also came to the conclusion that an AVCHD folder or like that would be a bit... inelegant for my needs, as the ultimate purpose is to store the final product on my NAS or the PS3's HDD itself. So, I figured tossing everything into a single .m2ts container with tsMuxeR the best way to go. Everything should be hunky-dory, right? Wrong.
The original video file, in the Matroska container, has a variable frame rate (which may be the most evil concept I've come across thus far). Thus, I can't simply drop it into tsMuxeR without the sync being lost between the video and audio. Or can I? That's the question now: is there any method by which I can mux this together into an .m2ts? I believe .mp4 containers support VFR streams and timecode, but that would take me right back to my initial dilemma. Is it possible to mux into any other format which supports BD .sup files, or am I going to have to spend the time recoding into a different frame rate?
Once again, any and all assistance is deeply and profoundly appreciated, I assure you.

Not sure about .mp4, but when I had a VFR .mkv I had to re-encode the entire thing to a CFR 23.976 .m2ts. I haven't tried remuxing it to .mp4, but I assume that the PS3 would take issue with it as well.
But that's been my experience. If you can work something out without having to re-encode, let me know.

Yeah, I'm not getting a real good feeling about the odds. In fact, without even looking, I'm developing this impression that the PS3 doesn't support VFR video of any kind.
Which would be because they're dicks.

I still am, apparently.
A question or two: which software have you tried? Are you married to the idea of splitting a single movie across multiple DVD5's? It doesn't seem like the most convenient method exactly, and I could perhaps suggest alternatives if I knew what sort of means you have available.

i've tried tsmuxer(downconvert for audio streamd desnt work or the subtitles doesnt work) multiavchd, avchdcoder (this 2 tried to reencode this take a lot of time! or dont allow me to put 2 or 3 audio streams and burn the subtitles on muvie i cant make them to disapear)
if u have ahother opition tell me! i prefer dvd5 because they are cheaper!

Any info you can give me about the file in question, preferably from MediaInfo?
You could author the AVCHD to a flash drive/memory stick/sd card. It'd save you the expense of DVD's, at least, and you wouldn't have to switch discs. That said, use whatever suits you best.

Freedom of speech is a good thing - also, do what you wish, but splitting a 13gig movie down into 3 x 4.7gig discs seems like a massive job and will probably take you half a day or more just to do that one movie.
What size HDD does your PS3 have? I changed mine over to 640gig and use ps3mediaserver to copy files straight over to it. you can also just stream them from your pc, instead of copying them. is that an option for you?
a pack of 25 dual layer DVDs costs around $18 in Australia, surely they couldnt be much more anywhere else? I know single layer discs are super cheap, but i cant imagine them being the norm for much longer.
This is great forum for getting help to transform your movie files into the format you need, but i would try to sway you away from splitting your files, it would be a massive job.
MKV2VOB software will do it for you if you want to do it. good luck

the problem with the mkv2vob its that it doesnt put 2 audio tracks! tsmuxer splits the mkv file very fast 10-20 min max the problem is that it doesnt downconvert the dts ! and i dont lnow how to write on dvd5 because tsmuxer meke one avchd folder with 2 3 video file it not make the 3 avchd folders!

Well, first, you should demux the DTS track and convert it with MeGUI. In fact, I believe there's a guide for that on this very site. If you've got all the other bases covered for your other needs, then that's cool.
In reference to your earlier question about the flash drive, you wouldn't need more than one; the idea being that you'd copy whichever AVCHD folder to it according to the movie you want to watch. Again, there's a large amount of personal preference to how you wish to store your movies, and in which format. For example I've found that, given the playback limitations of the PS3, it works best for me to hard-code the subtitles into the video stream and mux into M2TS, and then copy the files to my PS3 hard drive over my network. The encoding is tedious, but I get the size/quality I want, without worrying about discs and folders. To each his own.
Really, after you get the DTS converted, multiAVCHD should be all you need if you want to use physical media. I'd refer you to http://multiavchd.deanbg.com/ , or the forum at http://multiforum.deanbg.com/ . I've found Dean to be a patient, helpful person, so if you still can't figure it out perhaps you should shoot him a message on his forum.
Best of luck, and my apologies if I haven't been helpful enough.

Alright I have a question ... I normally don't have problems converting MKVs to AVCHDs to play them in my PS3, but I'm having some problem now ..
I recently converted an MKV to AVCHD recently, and the playback result is that on the PS3, I just get a black screen with the audio playing in background ... and if I play the same disc on a bluray player on my PC (e.g. PowerDVD, HP's built-in player), the video plays, but its very 'blocky' ...
The MKV I'm converting has a level of 4.1 by default, is 1920x1080 in resolution .. so it should convert properly, right ?

Hi everyone :)
I'm just beginning to use the TsMuxer app.
My question is releated to audio issues :
If i want to convert an MKV to MTS/AVCHD does my audio HAVE to be an AC3 track ?
I'm just asking because a lot of my mkv files have DTS or AAC and i've read that tsmuxer supports these as well but that there are a lot of problems with these including audio loss etc...
Thanks :)

I've sucessfully turned my file (mkv, h264 aac2.0) to both ts and m2ts. However, while the video outout was great, the audio not working in ps3. Please help whether to adjust the ps3 itself or there were something I missed out during muxing? Thanks.

I'm having an interesting problem. I use MKV2VOB a lot for converting 1080p and 720p files all the time to avchd or vob to play on my ps3. However I also have some standard def mkv's that I'd like to play on my ps3 but need to convert to avchd first.
However on the standard def stuff when I convert to AVCHD or to file the audio is drastically out of sync with the video. However this is never the case with 1080p or 720p files, even when re-encoded to add subs. I've noticed that it does this with MultiAVCHD and MKV2VOB as well so It's not just a program glitch I'm guessing. Anyone care to shed any light on the situation??
