Rencoding with x264 is the only way that never fails. For MKV-> BD-9...you have to be in luck or even try to "lie" Scenarist, I'll give the details when I'm sure they are right.

In my tests... streams had to be 95% of the final m2ts file size

For subtitles...you mean getting from a BD i.e. or putting them into the disc? If first one, use xport 0.96+. If second one...it's a bit difficult and I haven't done enough tests yet, but it's posible to include them (take a look at Scenarist manual or put subtitles blu-ray scenarist at google, or even here at doom9 searcher.

My video works if i remux it into an .mp4 or .mkv container, so why i get that d*** warning. weird
They work in mp4 at PS3? If so, maybe you have to "lie" too.
