I also changed, under "Author" tab, Transcode media fit (MiB) to 23500, and the same for Media (m2ts) split at (MiB) 23500.

Thanks! Worked like a charm.

hello everyone

i added sup file to blu-ray on multiavchd,subtitles are changing between but not being off,how i could fix that?

please help me if someone know it.

Greetings
Matt

ps3z - did your file had to be recropped to 1920x1080?
I had the same issue with a couple of movies with the recropping hard burned the subtitle tracks to the movie for no appearant reason (the settings said not to, but it did anyway).
The only way I found to overcome this was to demux the film, remux without any subtitle tracks (keep the subtitle tracks), then recrop, then use multiAVCHD and add the subtitles as external.

As for my previouse problem - it's getting too complicated for me. I'll just wait for someone to figure out how to make tsMuxer work nicely with TrueHD tracks.

For another issue - I have a vorbid track (commentaries) that I wish to add to a movie. tsMuxer doesn't recognize the track, but multiAVCHD does, as well as mkvmerge, mkvextract, etc.
I made a blu ray disc, the track was there. BUT when multiAVCHD finished, the track didn't appear in the video. The original DTS sound plays fine, but the vorbit track simply isn't there. I tryed different settings, like using the ac3to tab and set it to turn non HD sound to ac3 640, but it didn't work.
Is there a freeware that can turn the vorbid track to an ac3 track? Or any other way to overcome this, I guess?

Since multiAVCHD uses tsMuxer, I doubt that it's actually "recognizing" the track - just not generating an informational or error message...

ps3z · 18th August 2011, 20:12

hello dror.sharon5 subtitles are not hardcoded or forced but its doing like that.like without reason.i couldnt find any solution.it does for sup files but not for srt files etc....

maybe sup maker program does itself,i have to type to developer.

Except that it shows a VORBID track with 2 channels and even writes that it's commentaries, and has the bit rate samples and everything...

Dean (and Adub),

Being helped tremendously by Adub's video screencast for multiAVCHD. Thanks a million!

Two problems:

1) As soon as I click "NO" at the "Do you want to re-author?" popup, I'm getting a "Cannot open file" error (Line 55) instead of multiAVCHD starting its search of a BDMV directory for playlists.

2) There is no _LOG folder or file as described in your tutorial (...\_LOG\DATETIME-multiAVCHD.log).

3) Earlier today, before relaunching the program now, I had the playlists loading just fine from the same ISO, but there was no "remove" option once loaded.

Both earlier and now, I'm loading this from a CloneDrive mounted ISO, where the ISO is located on an external drive. The only other tampering I've done is to offload the _TEMP folder to a separate volume from where multiAVCHD is stored, so as not to run out of room. (C is where the exe is installed, D is where _TEMP is, though the folder's empty.) Again, apart from the no "remove" option, there was no trouble doing this earlier.

Let me know what to do next. I might just reinstall (sigh).

I have a question about 3D.

Can we make Real3d output? i have tested, but the results are always 2D. I think it is not possible, but can someone confirm this for me?

What i do is the following:

I import a BDMV 3d map. I make none specific configuration, only a top menu. Then i output it to PS3. The movie works, but only 2D.

icegue · 26th August 2011, 09:48

I created a DVD image and everything worked fine. Since then, everytime I try to start the program it only starts minimized in the task bar and I can't get the program to open its normal window.

The program also doesn't crash because when I just press 'enter' after starting the program I'm asked to choose the file to be opened - it seems that I hit the 'add video files' button. Afterwards I still don't see the program windows although there is no error message.

Can anybody please tell me how to get the program started (showing its window) again?

setarip_old · 26th August 2011, 18:24

@icegue

Hi!

Right-click on the "multiAVCHD.exe" file (or Desktop icon, if you have one) and select "Properties".

Set "Run" to "Nomal window".

Click on "OK"

Thanks for your answer, but unfortunately it didn't help...

setarip_old · 26th August 2011, 23:40

@icegue

1) Did you remember to click "OK"?

2) If you NOW rightclick on the file and select "Properties", what does it NOW say next to "Run"?

If it says "Normal Window", reboot your system and see if the program then sets up properly...

icegue · 28th August 2011, 09:41

setarip_old · 28th August 2011, 17:46

Uninstall, reboot, reinstall, reboot - or perform a System Restore back to the last time things were working properly...

How can I back up DVDs with multiAVCHD and put them on a BD? So far I have tried to make MKVs out of them and created a BD, but the 4/3 aspect ratio was gone and it was displayed at 16/9. I carfully did put only 4/3 files together but in vain.
Any good idea how I can create a BD with a correct display of 4/3 aspect ratio?

Music Fan · 31st August 2011, 15:05

If you put before your videos in MKV specifying 4/3 ratio, I believe MultiAVCHD will respect this ratio and will output the file in 4/3.
You can also try TS container in place of MKV.

Monty11 · 1st September 2011, 13:43

Is there any way to select which frame is used as a thumbnail for each title in the XMB, Slide or Carousel menus in multiAVCHD? Forgive me if the answer is obvious - I've had no luck searching for it. Thanks.

Well I did the MKVs with 4/3 in mkvmerg but that did not help. MultiAVCHD creates a BD with 16/9, so, I don#t think it will work.

Music Fan · 1st September 2011, 16:01

Weird, I did it and it worked. Try TS with TSMuxer, it should work.

I have a Windows 7 64-bit computer. I used MakeMKV to convert a BluRay disk to an MKV file, then split it into 7 files using mkvMergeGUI (so I could rearrange the order), then loaded all 7 files into multiAVCHD to make a new BluRay disk. A few seconds after pressing Start, multiAVCHD hung with an error message "tsMuxer.exe has stopped working. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I had to close multiAVCHD and tsMuxer with Task Manager. Can anyone provide a solution? Here is the MediaInfo report on the first of the seven MKV files:
