to burn wtv to blu ray or avchd dvd's

I am using windows media center to record ota hd programming. I want to then be able to burn these programs to a blu ray dvd to watch on stand alone blu ray players.

anyone have a guide to achieve this?

For making BDs for free (except donations) there are two alternatives AFAIK, one is multiAVCHD. See if it accepts your files, if not then find a convertor to TS or M2TS or a demuxer, and of course use something else to record off satellite (genuine sat streams are almost identical to those used in BDs, so converting it twice is non-sense IMHO and in usual cases also causes to the quality).

I think in the first place you should look into is how to convert your WTV files to a more common format for processing (e.g. M2TS / MKV).

From there you can edit your HD videos lossless (if you cut on I-frames) with AVIDemux Version 2.6.x (2.6 is important since 2.5.X is really bad in handling HD stuff).
The resulting file should M2TS although tsMuxer also accepts MKV as input. Then simply generate a BluRay disk structure with TSMuxer and burn it as UDF disk with ImgBurn.

It is a simple a this....besides a few possible sources of problems such as your BD player, the UDF version supported / used and so on.
