I just updated my tsmuxer.exe to version 1.9.7 .... I hope any wrong with it

[deank]

It is included in the full-download anyway... we'll see.

Did anyone had a chance to try multiAVCHD output with the new buttons (for Blu-ray) to players OTHER THAN PS3?

1. I think there is a bug when the filename to import has the character ' (apostrophe) - forx example "king arthur director's cut".
It generates a movie that has a time 0:00:00 and which is unplayable.
If i rename the file all seems ok.

2. when i select XMB directshow option, i have a lot of x264.exe error when creating menu

3. the renaming of avchd folder into avchd_date don't work for me and generate errors with line 6642 mentionned

Okay I added *.MPLS support in build 521. Be advised that your files have to have the long file names format, i.e. 00000.mpls / 00000.m2ts (but not 8.3 00000.MPL/MTS).

Please test it and let me know if it works... It will probably need more work, but this is the initial support.

(a late fix: chapters and audio/subtitle language tags)

Oh since multiavchd has the checkboxes to convert the streams, I thought it was needed, but i guess its then only needed for other players, i did not know that, thank you!

FAT32 splitting seems not to work correctly. The soft tell me there is not enought space when the file copy it is at about 4000 mb

[deank]

Okay now in build 521 you can use your blu-ray's playlist to create multiAVCHD. It's useful if you want to transfer it to external HDD, split in 4GB chunks and watch it on your PS3 in minutes.

You seem to be the only one with so many problems and one of the many who didn't read the guide nor this thread carefully.

Check if you really have enough space on your _TEMP and TARGET drives. Also about AVCHD-rename problem - it is always better to use "Custom name" and the newly created AVCHD will be named "AVCHD_custom name"... You can't always use AVCHD if you already have one in your output folder and if another program is using the content.

[navycrow]

i've read the guide

i don't know why i have these bugs. i use this soft since 1 month and the most of time it works allright but on on certain files it hangs. I don't know why.

i have enough space (more than 320 gb free)

Are you trying to import a Blu ray structure >4gb ?

It caught me out for a while until I re-read the whole thread.

over 4gb it has to be the m2ts file only.

Simon

[deank]

In case of blu-ray structure, containing 4+GiB m2ts files now you can use the new option to import mpls files. Then large m2ts will be split.

yes... well

the problem if import only the m2ts, i doesn't take account of chapters and language id


For the problem of renaming, i think i have understand

if i have already have a folder named AVCHD with some movies and i want to add a new one. The rename doesn't work. i ve to rename manually the AVCHD folder with a new name.

But if i import a folder named for ex. AVCHD_LIST1 and add a new movie and a folder names AVCHD already exists. It rename AVCHD without problem.

[navycrow]

i just found how to import mpls. The button doesn't mention MPLS


... but it doesn't work !

i'have this message "tsMuxer didn't like (E:\King_arthur\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00000.mpls). Skipping it...
No compatible folders/files processed..."

Try to find which XXXXX.mpls file contains your XXXXX.m2ts file and import it, instead of the .m2ts file.

edit: Please post your LOG file (what's inside LOG tab). Before all this - update to multiAVCHD build 521 - use multiUPDATE.exe.

To make things simple - always CLOSE your multiAVCHD before trying to make another compilation. Also if you already have AVCHD folder in the output folder - make sure that no other programs are using it (close all players, explorer windows which have the AVCHD open, etc.). OR SIMPLY fill something in the "Custom name" box before you start compiling.

The button doesn't mention MPLS

Well if you've REALLY read what I posted TODAY (just few posts up) you should've noticed that it is added and it is under testing. Also I can't put every file type inside this small button!

Also - I doubt that 00000.mpls you used is the MOVIE playlist - it could be a menu or something else.

Stop thinking i'm not reading post or guides.
I've REALLY read your post but you didn't mention where to find tis option.
00000.mpls is the movie, not a menu. it's the only file i have. it's a blu-ray structure created by tsmuxer.

[desray]

Just tested the Bluray support function and I have just successfully burnt to a BD-RE (Single-layered) media with no problem. And previously files that have stutter were gone now!!! I dunno how but it appears that my LG BD370 preferred BDMV file structure over the stripped-down AVCHD version of the Blu-ray format.

I am very happy

[deank]

@navycrow:

Looking at your log I'd say that:

1) 00000.mpls is definitely not your movie playlist
2) You either didn't rip the original blu-ray disc properly or you don't have it at all.

Take a look few posts up where I pasted my log. There you will see a lot of streams being detected before the line "Creating Blu-ray folders (tsMuxer)...".

@desray: And I believe your player indicates that it's playing Blu-ray disc (content).

You're so right!!!

[navycrow]

I confirm 00000.mpls is the only file i have. it contains 00000.m2ts wich contains my movie with 1 video track, 5 audio tracks and 6 subtitles tracks. There is no menu.
