Well the good news is the the version I made with v1.4.6 worked... sorta. The video played fine, but I chose the 6 chnl audio only and I and it isn't playing though my Samsung LCD tv. I probably should have included the 2 chnl English track as well.

That can't be a problem with your TV. Let me help :)...

Are you using HDMI to connect your player to your TV?

If you are then set your player to decode the audio on board and send it as 2 channel PCM. Your TV should be able to handle this fine. There is no point sending 6 channels to a TV as they only have stereo speakers. The only time you could benefit from 5.1 is to send it to a surround sound set-up.

Or when you say 6 channel audio, are you referring to DTS? If you are then you need to make sure you create a Blu-ray disc (or BD-5/BD-9) as m2ts media files can not play DTS. If you want 6 channel audio from a m2ts stream, Dolby Digital 5.1 @ 640kbs could be a good choice.

I ran Batman Begins through 1.6.1 and it didn't crash.

I am playing this through a PS3 with HDMI. I've tried both Bitstream and Linear PCM for the audio output and still no sound through the TV.

What audio format is it you would to include in your remux?

Can you send me problem file?

[idbirch2]

My goal is to convert it to DTS and re-mux, so I really need 6 mono wave files.

Have you tried eac3to for this conversion?

[VisMan]

Hi Roman,

thank's again for this wonderful tool!
Did you think about AC3 muxing for DVB compliant TS?

I have uploaded the XML Export from TSReader for a recording made by my STB.
http://rapidshare.com/files/102236144/ts.xml

Maybe you can take a look a this and implement this feature in tsMuxerR?

I also can provide samples of such streams if you need.

[Lacix]

Any plan to support text subtitles (.srt ?) for Blu-ray muxing ?

[DoomBot]

Can you send me problem file?


The thing is i was joining m2ts files with tssplitter then ran it through tsMuxer and thats when i had the error part way through, so i cant really send a problem file because it would be way to big. This error code was only when i used tssplitter for some reason. I was tring to join these files a different way because i and many others are having problems with the joined parts right after each one there is a stutter and or a skip , we are using hardware media players like TViX or popcorn hour these kind of players.

Some one on Networked Media Tank said it like this....

http://www.networkedmediatank.com/viewtopic.php?t=864&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=

("Its the lack of proper tools thats causing this.

Videofiles cannot just be joined by a simple "join cmd" - this only "glues" the parts together to make it look like a single file, like creating a playlist. But a video and containerstructure has to be properly reconstructed at the joinpoints to make it one single videofile. There are gop and sequenceheaders that need to be reconstructed etc. or it will still just be 4 parts in a "playlist", and there will be a stop and start for each part.

This maybe so small that you dont see it when playing back on a pc, the softwareplayers buffer may make this behave as seamless branching, with no visual stutter at the joinpoints, but it may be difficult for a hardwareplayer to do the same.

I guess remuxing with TSremux as you do should theoretically fix this, but it seems that is not the case, and TSremux is not able to properly create new gop and sequenceheaders.

I think we will just have to wait for better tools to emerge out there.")


By the way, Thank you for this great tool!

Thank you very much, I've been a Linuxer since long time ago...and I hated using windows last months just for blu-ray stuff...your program will reduce my Windows-using time about 85%. :thanks:

Send me the GUI code and I'll try to port it.

In case you want to send it by email:

Can you send example of these file?


I have take out linux version of a tsMuxer. Somebody wants to port GUI to linux? I can send source codes of tsMuxerGUI written on delphi7.

I've tried running the linux binary from your website with the following error:

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found

Looks like it was linked against an older version of libstc++

Anybody else have this problem?

[Ryu77]

Any plan to support text subtitles (.srt ?) for Blu-ray muxing ?

Yes...

I don't know. I think it is supread problem. Anyway I plan to add .srt support in tsMuxer.

There you have it, straight from the Author! :)

I am also eagerly awaiting this.

@roman
Does tsMuxeR take care of seamless branching when joining multiple Blu-ray .m2ts files?

i am new to tsmuxer and have run into a small prob that i hope i can get some help with... i have an 1080p m2ts file... i muxed it into a ts file with the h264 stream and down converted the dts stream to ac3 via tsmuxer... i stream the resulting file via tversity to my ps3...audio works fine but video constantly pixelates and distorts.. i am using a completely wired network and other 1080p files play fine... is there n e thing i can do in the gui that can help... thanks

[CGJ]

Good，fhans

[Wiewior]

I try to "shrink" BD-DL to "typical" BD. And it works fine, but only if I use an option "Insert chapter every...". If I use "Custom chapter list", created Blu-Ray disk plays wrong - Nero ShowTime shows only black screen - and information that the stream is encoded in MPEG-2, while it's in MPEG-4.
Is this related to the k-frames or something?

Can you read your original m2ts file with a player in windows , properly ?

no it doesnt even looks like it starts to play... i get just a black screen... ffmpg starts up and haali media splitter starts up as well (system tray)

BD noob here:

So I just riped my first Blue Ray disk (it's BD+ and that's excellent!) and I have 21 .m2ts files and I don't know what they are. Are they all the movie just broken up into 21 pieces? If not and the largest one (which is considerably larger) is the main movie, how do I know what the others are? I tried to remux them all by appending them and tsMuxer got mad at me.

Well, try and open them in a media player and watch them.

On Linux, I've found that ffplay will play pretty much any HD file. Not sure about other operating systems.

[saint-francis]

That one file seems to play the entire movie but nothing is having a good time trying to deal with it. None the less is this how people are determining what is in which .m2ts file?

[west]

@zelos...
vlc doesnt play the video (ts) either but i do get sound... however wut i found interesting is that vlc recognizes that there is a vid (it expanded its main window) stream there but it showed a black screen....

[setarip_old]

@west

Hi!

Sounds like your M2TS file is corrupt.

1) What software and procedures did you use to create the M2TS file?

2) You'd probably be best off re-ripping from the original source material (disc or satellite broadcast?)

[west]

@setarip
idk if u have read n e of my previous posts... but wut i have done is took the original m2ts file and used tsmuxer to isolate the video stream and the audio stream (which was down converted to ac3) the resulting ts file streamed to the ps3 but the video became pix elated immediately, never a smooth picture.... zelos has led me to believe it may be a codec issue but i havent been able to get it working yet... wut i am currently trying is using the new ts file into vlc and convert it to program stream and then stream to ps3.. ill update later on wut happened... thanks to everyone who has been helping.... (ive been at this for months!!)

tsMuxeR does not seem to recognize an HDV file captured on Linux with dvgrab from a Canon HV20 (http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Canon-HV20-Camcorder-Review.htm) camcorder. The file should be a regular HDV file, MPEG2 codec, 1440x1080i, 29.97fps.

I wish to convert a 720p mkv video file with DTS audio track to M2TS (Ps3 compatible) using tsMuxeR. I know tsMuxeR doesn't like DTS audio so I have to convert the DTS track to AC3. Where can I find a guide to help me in this audio conversion task? any help is really appreciated.
thanks

[saint-francis]

its a downloaded bluray movie...

Oh man! You came right out and said it didn't you?:eek: Haven't you read the rules? Buy the movie or don't ask the question. Or else you're going to get stuck in situations like this. It's probably best that you delete that post.

well ur right... its just a weird sit... basically dnt loan out ur movies to idiots... ive seen other peep on here saying similar things but thanks for the heads up well appreciated....

where do you figure tsMuxeR doesnt like dts audio. your thinking that ps3 can't play dts audio (not even pass it through to receiver)

even if the file has ac3 audio already (compatable on ps3) i dont think just using tsMuxeR to make the mkf .m2ts will make it play on ps3.

there is a prog called mkv2vob which will remux an mkv to avc to play on ps3. or if it has to (it auto detects) it will transcode the file to your choice of mpeg-2, xvid, or x264. it also recodes dts to ac3. either way it makes a file that plays on ps3 from your mkv, so that is prob what you are looking for.

Just a question, why is it against the rules to say that it's from a downloaded source? Yes, the rules state you can't provide information relating to copyright infringement (rule 6) but there is nothing to say the downloaded content isn't perfectly legitimate, also there is nothing to say that it is.

My understanding is that as long as you don't specify that it is indeed a case of copyright infringement, then no rules have been broken. Is there anyone that can clarify this?



MimiK and Quatre, for tsMuxeR to output DTS in a playable media format, you will need to select Blu-ray output. After the Blu-ray folders have been created for you, simply burn them as UDF v2.5 with Nero or ImgBurn.

MimiK, if you still want to convert the DTS to ac3 so you can export a m2ts media file instead of Blu-ray, I would recommend using EAC3to for this conversion.

oh sweet imgburn can burn as udf v2.5? cool, so i can take my .mts files that my avchd vid cam produces and use tsMuxeR to mux to bluray output and then burn in imgburn as udf 2.5.

haen't seen that option on imgburn but will give it a try at some point.

id like to add music to the avchd authored disc i make though of our baby.

[Ryu77]

Quatre, you will need the latest version of ImgBurn, previous versions didn't offer the UDF v2.5 burning option.

[Encoder888]

Hey,

I've been using TSMuxer co concatenate m2ts from seamless branching movies, and I've been getting audio delay/sync problems. I know the new 1.6.3 is supposed to take care of that, but I'm still getting the same results. I've also used TSMuxer in combination with TSRemux... Still the same problem. Any advice? (the movie is Enchanted)

[nekowhizz]

Hi Encoder888

When sticking seemless branching movies together, you normally have to remux them twice, so I tend to remux to .ts or .m2ts and then to blu-ray or again whatever format you wish. Never failed once, though there was one movie I had to remux three times :eek:

To Roman the creator of this masterpiece of a program:thanks:
I seem to be having a strange problem when remuxing Dan in Real Life BD, where it says the streams go out of sync or something like that... TsRemux doesn't have the same issue, but once muxed playback is wrong, as the video slows down and speeds up at various points... very strange! I'll get the exact error message shortly.

[survivant001]

@roman76

there is a problem with the spliting file in bluray.

I just watch a movie that I encode. It's split the file a 4gigs and create the playlist, the chapters works.. but there is one problem.

when will play the movie, you will obtain Invalid disk when it,s time to change to the second playlist. If I replay to movie and skip by chapters it will works, but it's still a bug.

Maybe you can compare with scenarist to see what is the difference in the sequence.

[gav1577]

@Roman hi i have a m2ts 1080 file which will not playback on the ps3 in bluray structure created by tsmuxer 1.6.3b i have tried the nero bmdv files on a avchd dvd and it wont work i just get a black screen but if i run the same file through tsremux it plays fine. please will you take a look and see whats causing tsmuxer to output a file that is unplayable. here are two 50mb bluray clips in bluray structure created from the same source. one has been created by tsmuxer and the other by tsremux

I know it works in xmb. it does not work in avchd /bluray structure
when burned to dvd. i doubt there are burn errors if there were surely i would get burn errors with the structure created by tsremux too what i need is someone to confirm this issue by burning to avchd and let me know that the structure created by tsmuxer does not work and the structure created by tsremux does thanks :)

[tchrin]

Hi Roman

I own the following hardware:
Sony HDR-SR1
Sony PS3 60 Gb
PC Core Duo running Vista SP1, 2 GB RAM
I use the following softwares
TSMuxer 1.6.3(b)
PowerDVD 7.3
Media Player Classic
K-Lite Codec PAck 3.8.5

Merging files is OK
-----------------
I am using TSMuxer to merge my small .M2TS files.
Those merged .M2TS files play great on my PS3.
I can play them as well on PowerDVD on my Vista PC.
This is the tool I have been looking for a long long time.

Blu-Ray authoring does not work for me
--------------------------------------
When I try to generate a Blu-Ray structure with TSMuxer, everything seems to work, ie: the folders get generated with the right names, the right files.

I can play the .M2TS files that have been renamed to 0000x.M2TS with PowerDVD or MPC. Then I burn a UDF 2.5 DVD using Nero burning room 8. I include the \BDMV and \CERTIFICATE folders.

When I attempt to play the DVD from PowerDVD
When I attempt to play the DVD from my PS3

I get a black screen and no sound.

I have read all the comments in this forum and others and tried again and again, but I have not been successful so far.

Can you help?

I get a black screen and no sound.

This is odd. I did something similar, except I used files from a different AVCHD camcorder (Canon HF10), and burned the disk with ImgBurn, but then the PS3 was able to play it just fine. tsMuxeR has a less than optimal way of setting the chapter marks, but nevertheless, at least the BD image was playable.

I'm willing to do a test if you can put a short m2ts file somewhere online so I can download it. Don't process it, just download it from the camcorder and put it on a site. I can author it with tsMuxeR, burn it on a DVD-RW then test it on the PS3.

I'm using the latest 2.20 firmware and remuxed Rambo First Blood MKV with DTS-ES and @5.1 1280x544 to M2TS and it played perfectly (at least the video) in my PS3 under the XMB.

Tested with Terminator 2 same profile and audio and video was perfect.

Tested with Terminator 1 same video profile and AC3 audio and both audio and video perfect.

With other remuxes of those sources I wasn't able to have any video at all under my XMB.
Building a bluray structure to test with my PS3 now. Will post here later.

It will be great if 5.1 is supported under AVCHD disc. We could have subtitles after pelican add suport for 544p and other custom resolutions for his tool SUPread that converts SRT to SUP

Burned the BD structure of Rambo 1 First Blood @5.1 1280x544 and DTS-ES audio. I just added the files to the tsmuxer and made it create a blue ray structure for me.

The PS3 started to play the disc and yes, I got image on the screen but with a big green area on the botton. The area corresponding to the missing 176 pixels to reach 720p I guess.


For who doesn't want DTS and doesn't need subtitle the just remux is great now since the PS3 support others resolutions.

yes you are correct it has to be 1280x720 or you get green bars/bar
