I understand. No worries.
So here are some features/fixes that would interest me personally:

- Display the language and bitrate information of the various audio streams contained in an EVO or m2ts that is being added to a project.

- When muxing to BluRay with more than one audio stream, all the languages are tagged "English". It would be great to have a pulldown menu to assign other language codes to the audio streams.

- Accept elementary streams as input

- Subtitles from HD DVD (PGS) are muxed to BluRay, but they cannot be displayed by PowerDVD. A format conversion seems to be required. And yes, being able to change the position of those PGS would be great also.

- Removing the end-of-file flags from m2ts files joined with copy /b appears to work only when output = m2ts is selected, not when muxing directly to BluRay. In that context, having an "append" function in Tsremux would save a lot of time, too.

- Add ability to remove flags interlaced = 1 and pulldown = 1 from HD DVD video streams and (automatically) change fps from 29.97 to 23.976 in those cases. I believe the standalone tools that do this (vc1conv and h264info) are open source and could be integrated into Tsremux.

I do appreciate that there are other tools out there (not too far away from this thread actually) that have some or all of those features already but regardless, I think integrating them into Tsremux would make it an even more useful helper.

TIA!

Tnx for the great tool, it does everything i hoped for.
I have one little question.

I use the tool mainly for demuxing m2ts bluray files. I was wondering if the languages of the audio and subtitle tracks can be found anywhere.
At this time its showed as ... stream #X, i was wondering if I could find the right languages somewhere on the bluray disc (just like I can with the IFO files from a DVD).

Unfortunately the Panasonic BD30 does not play PAL based Bluray structures on DVD created with TSRemux from H.264 TS/M2TS-files. Investigating the possible reason i found, that framerates written in the Playlist and Clipinf files are NTSC based (e.g. 29,67 instead 25 fps) and therefore contradicting with the PAL-Video in the Stream folder.
Anybody the same problem and what should i do to solve it (TsMuxer does not apply for another reason) ?
Is there a PAL-version of TSRemux or the possibility to edit the created bluray-structure ?

[MBoufleur]

Indeed, thanks for the great app!

I used it to demux some files from a new standard and I found some minor issues here.

i have problem with a joined movie...

after i joined the movie with copy /b cmd i imported it into tsremux and exported it so that the joining gaps getting fixed. after that i imported the new file in tsmuxer which says that the dts-hd master audio is gone. there is only the core left in the stream. i haven't selected the option to output only the core in tsremux. just to make sure, i re-did it and double checked that the option for core export was not selected and still i get only the dts core in the final file.

any ideas what that could be and how to fix it?

Why not just join it using TsMuxer? I've done a few now and have had no join problems at all (unlike with TsRemux)

[zeropc]

i was told that the joining option in tsmuxer isn't perfect yet. that's why i tried tsremux for this task.

That may just be a bug in tsMuxeR. What about file sizes? If the dts-HD information was dumped somehow, the output file would be considerably smaller than the input file.... do you still have 'em both to compare?

What if you re-import the processed file into TsRemux (instead of tsMuxeR) - does it, too, report only regular dts?

That's true imho.

dmz01 first off fantastic app thanks for the time and effort you put into it, Now a request would it be at all possible for you to add a Split/Cut file feature similar to the one in Tsmuxer.

Thanks again

I've been using eac3to to join those horrendous branching BD disks, and the results are spectacular.

the filesize is alot smaller after running it through tsremux, which is understandable as it kicks out the hd audio data. tsmuxer reads it then as dts core. when i re-imported the new file in to tsremux, it does say dts hd master hd (weird) but when i demux this stream, i only got the core file. i demuxed the dts hd master audio from the original file and it's about 2 - 3gb bigger, depending on the movie and channel setup (5.1, 6.1, 7.1).

it seams to me that there is a bug in tsremux regarding this particular problem. i can't confirm this on every film because i mainly use tsmuxer but these branching films i use tsremux. maybe they are the problem?

Well, there is your proof. You found a bug!

Perhaps.
I agree with 73chargerfan that you should probably consider using eac3to for those seamless branching titles. It can detect and remove audio overlaps in the individual segments, too, which is very useful.

thanks for this really nice tool.

Finally I found a tool, which makes a single seekable file from several VOB files
containing multiple audio tracks. Just the subtitles are missing.
So I would like to ask if there are any plans to support the subtitle tracks inside a VOB ?

@dmz01: First thank you for your great tool.

One suggestion I like to make is that it seems to be important to only burn the BDMZ-folder without the anyway empty CERTIFICATE-folder using UDF 2.50 onto a DVD+-R/RW. This has been suggested by Volker Zota in issue No.9 of the german c't-magazine. I found out that this is correct. A remuxed recording from a BBC HD-satellite transmission could be played perfectly on bluray standalone players of Samsung, Philips and Pioneer. A Sharp bluray-player just complained "incompatible media" an rejected the disc. These were the only four bluray players I have tested.

Hello,

How can we use this command line ?

I would like to do a batch with tsremux and I think the command line is the best way, but I didn't find any information...

Thanks

Do you guys know the format of the m2ts 4-byte timecode and what each byte represents?

It's 2 bits of copy control and then 30 bits of arrival timestamp (based on the same 27 MHz clock that's used for the Transport Stream PCR).

Thanks. Do you also have some more information (bit-wise) on the arrival timestamp to be able to use it within an application?
