Getting WMEncoder 9 to work with .TS files

[Numan123]

I can't seem to load them up in it. If I load up a .ts file, WME will give me an error file format not usable when I hit apply. If I use HDTVtoMpeg and try to use that converted file, WME crashes.

Using XP SP2, Nvidia 92.91 forcerware along with Purevideo drivers.

I don't think WME9 was designed with MPEG2-TS in mind. Do the files play OK in WMP? Does renaming them to .mpeg help? If not, your best option might be to use DGMPGDec/DGIndex and Avisynth to frameserve the video to WME9.

Quite possible. With the Nvidia Purevideo drivers I can load .ts files in WMP and also in Media Center. Renaming the file to something other then .ts doesn't help. It's weird because I converted the Matrix films before from ts into WMV with WME but I don't remember for the life of me how I did it.

WME9 is very picky about splitters/decoders.
Install Elecard v.3 (v.4 has a AR bug), set the highest merit and it will work.
