Blue-Ray to MKV with megui

[castellanos]

Sorry for this question, I was looking around for an answer but no luck.
I'm trying to make a Backup Blue-Ray --> MKV using megui.
I've made a script to test the m2ts file:
DirectShowSource("D:\RIP Test\Riddick\RIDDICK_G51\BDMV\STREAM\00037.m2ts")
If I open the avs file with MPC I get sound but no video.
If I open it with megui I get this error message:

Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks!

Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
FFDShow and Haali Media Splitter already installed.

Did you use the tool (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=146910) that makes ffdshow work correctly on win7?
Furthermore ffvideosource() (http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1364136&postcount=728) is probably a better idea than directshowsource() if you can't use DGIndex/DGIndexNV/DGAVCIndex. It comes with its own ffmpeg so no ffdshow needed. Note that the download in the last post doesn't come with the needed .avsi file. You'd have to get that from an older version.
Did you check if the output is yv12, if not convert to it.

While I don't think that that's necessary I generally demux the video (to MKV) and subs and convert the audio tracks first by using eac3to. MeGUI has the HD Stream Extractor as a GUI for that.

Thanks for your quick answer nurbs!
I've managed to extract the video (mkv) audio and sup files from the m2ts container using the "HD Streams Extractor" tool in megui.
However, I think is better to convert it to mp4.
Megui can't open the mkv file, but I can play it with WMP or WMPC.
Some reason why?
Thanks!

Hi! I'm trying to make a Backup Blue-Ray --> MKV using megui.Unless you have some (unstated) special reason to do this using megui, I'd suggest it would be far easier to use MakeMKV in one step to both rip and convert the BluRay to .MKV...

No preferences at all.
Thanks setarip_old, MakeMKV did the job well. :)
