Hello all ! I have written a useful front-end for tsMuxer that converts .mkv to BD/AVCHD in an one-click fashion. You can download it from here :

QuickMuxIt v1.3 by vpapanik (c) 2008-2009
-----------------------------------------
QuickMuxIt is a small front-end utility to tsMuxeR,
including extra capabilities which make .mkv to Blu-Ray
conversion easier for everyone, especially PS3 owners
and Greek-subtitle lovers :)
Usage :
On the first time, declare the location of tsMuxeR.exe
using the 'open' button. The default location is
C:\Program Files\tsMuxeR\tsMuxeR.exe.
Just drag'n'drop an .mkv file in the 'File Information' panel
and press the big button on the bottom to start conversion.
Options :
All options are saved in QuickMuxIt.ini, so there is
no need to set them again every time (like in tsMuxer GUI !).
- Subtitle font : Default is Arial.
- Subtitle color : Default is white.
- Font size for 720p and 1080i/1080p resolutions :
Defaults are 40px and 60px respectively.
- Distance from bottom for 720p and 1080i/1080p resolutions :
Defaults are 30px and 45px respectively.
- Remove subtitle tags : This option removes bold, italic and
underline tags from .srt subtitles, which are not yet
supported by tsMuxeR. Note that the original .srt file
is not altered in any way.
- Create AVCHD structure : Renames certain files in
the BD structure, in order to be played by the PS3 system,
using an external hard drive or flash disk (no need for
DVD burning). In order to achieve this. you have to place
BDMV and CERTIFICATE directories inside an 'AVCHD' directory
on the root of an external hard drive or flash disk.
- Context menu : Adds QuickMuxIt in the context menu.
You can right-click an .mkv file and select 'QuickMuxIt'.
Notes :
- When the program is first run, it creates a context
menu entry, so next time you can just right click on
an .mkv file and select 'QuickMuxIt'.
- The BD/AVCHD structure (BDMV and CERTIFICATE directories)
are placed inside a new directory, in the same place and
with the same filename as the .mkv file.
- When an .mkv file is opened, essential information
appears on the top panel. If .srt subtitles are present
(having the same filename as the .mkv file), they are
automatically added and recognized as English (Latin)
or Greek. Moreover, the contents of the tsMuxer metafile
(used for conversion) are shown.
Version History :
v1.3 (06/01/2009) : Added support for DTS sound and user
selectable context menu.
Hope you find this utility useful ! Any comments or suggestions are mostly welcome :)
