chop to the frame not GOP

[gaspah]

whats a good method to edit .ts to the frame? I can chop it into segments with dgindex etc, but that only does it to the GOP. I want to make the jump to .mkv/x264/AAC with my tv encodes as i have with my dvd encodes, which means scrapping my old (beautifully simple) method of editing it in virtualdubmod and encoding on-the-fly. at the moment i feel like a complete nob encoding to max bitrate .avi/xvid then converting those files to .mkv... takes too long and i lose some quality, and some channels with with odd anamorphic hd resolutions like that almost-1080i where they use a smaller width and strech it to 1920, i get slapped around trying to correct the AR... i mean i know how to do it but i usually forget and have to do it later

any help'd be muchly appriciated... thx!

Make a full range project with DGIndex and then do the cutting with Trim() in your Avisynth script. Then pass the script to your encoder.

Dub the audio back in with AudioDub() so that the Trim()'s can act on both audio and video.

it always comes back to avisynth huh ;D

k... i'll try to figure out how to do that now, if i get stuck, i'm sure to be back soon.. thanks heaps

ps yeah a silly choice of words :D i really meant 'A' method, thx for just editing rather than chewing me out for it...
