4).. TsRemux ver 0.021.2 (Not always needed or used)
5)..IMGBURN 2.4.2.0

I have read your article How to Decrypt/Play Blu-Ray discs, dated April 23, 2008 from QuadcoreHD
I have fallowed your directions I believe to the letter. Yet when I try to back up Blu-ray movies that I own like Ratatouille or Meet The Robinsons they freeze/lock up toward the beginning. These two movies and some others with multiple movie stream /aka m2ts files Freeze/lock up when I back them up to a 25GB Blu-ray media. As I said I have followed your direction of QuadcoreH dated April 23, 2008 with the exception of step 4 where I din't create an ISO folder but instead use IMGBURN ver. 2.4.2.0 where I use the option Build under Mode and under output I use device. That last part I am following the guide from Wesley Novack on July 30, 2008 titled Burn Blu-Rays: a how to Guide for Burning BD-R Discs. The guide by Wesly has served me very well in backing up my Blu-ray movies that only have one large movie stream AKA/m2ts file. I also dint use your step 5 of mounting the image with Deamon tools. My goal is to make a copy of the movie for the purpose to have my young children watch the copies and not the originals. My kids have destroyed many Blu-ray disc and I feel they are to expensive to have them mess the originals.

Once I get the correct Playlist order, I use Transport Stream Splitter ver. 1.01 to join the playlists, I also think is called seamless branching I go to file and open for joining. I get a one big file with all of the playlists file that have been joined. I then grab the one large file and use TsRemux ver. 0.0.21.2 to get any audio stream and subtitles I choose to exclude. Of course the output format for TsRemux is Blu-ray so it can make a BDM file to be backed up using IMGBURN 2.4.2.0 I have backed up 2 movies so far 1. Ratatouille and 2. Meet The Robinsons. Both movies and others like them with multiple movie streams have locked up toward the beginning, like 5 to 6 minutes into the movie, when I backed up to a Blu-Ray Media. The other problem is that when you use the remote control to fast forward or back or to go to the next chapter or back a chapter the movie just crashes. There are no normal split points or chapters that you can go forward or and back, There is only one chapter. I knew that TSSpliter is used to join multiple m2ts files into one large m2ts file, but there should be individual chapters within that 1 large m2ts file, and in my cases there is 1 large m2ts file but no individual chapter. I think this is where the problem is. (The media is excluded because I have made plenty of backup copies when not using TSSpliter/movies with one large m2ts file.
The movies that have been backed up correctly have only one playlist. So in these cases no need to use TSSplitter, I just use IMGBurn & TsRemux ) Please help me, what steps am I missing?
The Blu-ray players is also excluded. I have 3 players and the only movies that lock up are movies that I have backed up which have multiple m2ts files.
Sincerely,

Please Help me QuadcoreHD or any one else who knows what I'm doing wrong.

I believe you may have a problem because you are using TSSplitter. If possible, open the correct .MLPS file in the "Playlists" folder on the disc with TSMuxer. Once you've found the correct .MLPS file (usually one of the larger files in size in the Playlists folder), you will not need to join anything. Selecting this file eliminates the need to demux/remux multiple times because of multiple main-movie .m2ts files.

While I can't say for sure, I would be pretty confident in saying that using TSSplitter is the problem here, it is most likley causing the playback problems you described. Using the playlist file method will fix this.

Hope this helps!

Thank You QuadcoreHD you were correct the problem was TSplitter. I fallowed your advise and started using tsMuxer and that fixed my problem. I used tsMuxer to open the correct MLPS file which as you said was the largest file and that has the whole movie. Thank you again QuadcoreHD your advise was invaluable.
I found the correct MLPS file by using BDinfo software.
