Issue with Fringe backing up

Having issues with backing up Fringe so help would be appreciated!

It is a pretty "unique" release in that playlists aren't per title but all episodes are bundled into a single playlist. I can't work out a clean way of getting the disc backed up into single episodes whilst preserving the chapters (as they are tied to the playlist).

Initially I tried extracting the ~3 hour long chapter list of the 4 episodes and matching them up to the individual m2ts files but the chapters aren't even accurate (i.e. there should be a chapter to mark the beginning of the next episode, but instead it's ~2s before it and lies in the first episode after the credits).

I've seen a tool bdsplice that can split based on chapters which seems neat (so I could split on that chapters and recalculate the chapters per episode) but I wouldn't know how to get an m2ts back into a blu ray format without using eac3to and tsmuxer once more (would this decoding degrade lossy quality?).

Hopefully I have explained the issue, again any help would be much appreciated!
