I've searched and not found this question asked previously.
I'm wondering if it's currently possible to configure BD-Rebuilder such that all video streams that are reencoded are AVCHD-compliant streams (either with the 18 Mbps DVD-media limitation or otherwise the 24 Mbps "other media" limitation), even when the output mode is full-backup to BD25.
The reason for this is that I anticipate (perhaps incorrectly) that certain tablet computers etc may start to become AVCHD-licensed/compliant players, in which case it would be incredibly nice to be able to play my BD25 backups without reencoding the video and instead, at most, reencoding audio only and/or remuxing (either via BD-RB in movie-only output mode or otherwise).
Bonus question!
Concerning the video stream aspect only: besides the video bitrates and other restrictions given for AVCHD on its Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVCHD#Specifications), is AVCHD (prior to the 2.0/Progressive addendum) strictly a subset of the general Blu-ray AVC video encoding limitations (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1399419#post1399419), or are there additional, "hidden" restrictions (possibly relating to level, profile, GOP lengths, etc etc) that AVCHD enforces?
