DragonHeart HD DVD rip shows as 1080i

[bloodta]

I ripped Dragonheart HD DVD to convert to bluray, I checked the 24000/1001 option as well as "Remove Pulldown". The resulting Blu-ray "compliant" stream is only 1080i. What gives? I used AnyDVD to rip/Decrypt and TsMuxer to convert to Blu-Ray Disc.

Grab a file called vc1conv.exe from here:
http://www.w6rz.net/

And run your demuxed VC1 video file from the HD DVD through that first.
I haven't done an HD DVD to Blu-ray conversion in a while, so I'm not sure how well TSMuxer does it, but I converted Dragonheart to Blu-ray a few years ago, and I know it works when you use vc1conv.

It's a command-line tool, just
vc1conv infile outfile
and wait...

Thanks, I'll see if I can figure that out. By the way, MediaInfo shows that it is progressive...

Thanks, that worked like a charm.
