Hi guys.
My friend has a bunch of HD home movies shot with his Canon EOS 5D Mark II. We were wondering if it'd be possible to get those .mov files playable at least on the PS3 without the need to re-encode... you know, by re-muxing, changing the level and the fps, etc. Just managing to preserve/reuse the video stream would save us time and quality. Has anyone had any luck with this so far?
Thanks

So the software that comes with the DSLR is no good at all?

As it is probably the same sw that comes with the 7d, no!
It's only useful for photos, no video tools...

- Encode the PCM audio to aac
- Mux the h.264 video and the aac audio into mp4

Thanks. Would you have a recommendation for a reliable de/re-muxer? SuperŪ didn't quite seem to handle it.

Oh man avoid SUPER like the plague. Transcode the audio from pcm to aac with eac3to and the neroaacenc executable and then mux with MP4creator or mp4box.
