Hi guys, as the title suggests, I am wanting to make a Blu-ray to a DVD but wanting to do it properly. If anyone doesnt know the film 'Inception' I suggest you go watch it NOW :D But for those who do know and own the DVD, it is practically the worst thing ever to have come out commercially from a well respected film company (Warner Bros.) The DVD is actually piss-poorly encoded that it is virtually unwatchable. They did take notice of it and offered a replacement disc, which I myself have gotten, and whilst it was an improvement or 'watchable', the encoding was still badly done and I was still unhappy. The Blu-ray disc of the film however is perfect.

So I am wanting to make my own encoding of the film using my friend's Blu-ray (which I asked ever so kindly if its okay to backup) and worked on from there with the movie segment demuxed itself and muxed it to a .TS container.

I basically want to do a basic but proper job, and thus came up with this:

FFVideoSource("D:\Inception\Inception.ts")
ConvertToRGB(Interlaced=False)
AssumeFPS(25)
Crop(0,140,0,-140)
Blackmanresize(720,429)
ConvertToYV12(Interlaced=False)
ColorMatrix(mode="Rec.709->Rec.601")

Would you say this is applicable? The resize might seem abit odd but I am basically trying to retain the aspect ratio as much as I can, even when cropping the borders, I check everytime I crop until I dont see a stretch of black pixel on the top and bottom horizontally, thus why I did ConvertToRGB() in the first place.

Try using the solutions that have been given in several other threads of similar nature (and title :)).

Looks like a rule 6 violation to me. Thread closed.
