Hi wiak!

I have found out that using DVBstreamexplorer which can be found on: http://www.dvbstreamexplorer.dk/ you can feed this ts-file as input using the programs ts-file-driver. Then after you have done a "tranponder"-search of this file you will find that it has the H264-video on PID 512 (0x200) and the AAC-audio on PID 640 (0x280). Then you can demux these streams using "plugins-Streaming to disk-Save A/V ES streams". There you have to enter these PIDs as VPID and APID and enter a file name for each the video and audio file. Even though the standard extention of "bin" is indicated a standard raw H264-file and a AAC-file will be written. The video file can be played provided you have a H264-codec installed and the AAC-file can be played be the recent Winamp. With Winamp you can decode and convert the audio and write it to a stereo 48000 Hz WAV-file.

This is complicated but it works.

Using Belight then you can compress this audio-file to a more usable format like MP3, MPEG-Audio or AC3 and then you can mux it with the H264-video-file e.g. with the matroska muxer into a mkv-file or with Elecards EMuxer Pro into a ts-file. Using the "Nero Wave Editor" e.g. you also can reencode the PCM-Wave-Audio to a LC-AAC-file and then multiplex the H264-file and this LC-AAC-file with Yamb 2.0 into a compliant MP4-file which might be playable on Nero-Digital-compliant hardware players. Besides a PC.

better to remux the aac with the h264 to .mkv than re-encoding the audio to less quality mp3 and lose quality :eek:

[Schmendrick]

Of course it would be better to remux the aac-file into a mkv-file the problem is that this HE-aac-file is not accepted by the matroska muxer. The only program so far which was able to properly decode this HE-AAC-file was Winamp. If you are able to find an other freely available HE-AAC-decoder your problem would be solved directly being able to play this ts-file directly.

only one transpoder in the lite version :(
so i cant use this its to bugy

[Schmendrick]

Well I have to admit that I am using the full version which is not for free but also very useful for DVB-S, DVB-T and now even DVB-S2-cards and for decoding ts-files. So it is worth to invest the money into this nice program.
