-Cheers-

Yup, it supports multi-threading. I use a QX6850 Quad Core Extreme 3.0GHz (running at 3.0Ghz, not overclocked) and it completes a standard x264 transcode in around 1hr.

Not experienced any compatibility issues with mencoder on my setup.

Anyway, you can convert it yourself into an m2ts file which the PS3 will happily play. Download the latest version of tsmuxer (1.7.6b at the moment) from here. Drop in your .ts, deslect streams you don't need and output it to m2ts format. When it's finished rename the output file to a .m2t file (this is needed so TVersity will stream it). That should then work ok on the PS3

W00t! even.
Great advice Renzz, works a charm!
Thanks m8

Is anyone interested in making an OS X version? I can run this program through Vista on Boot Camp, but I'd love to be able to run it in Leopard natively.

its not because of large files because i have one file that is 4.37 GB and it quits at roughly 90% completed.

Thanks Rotor.
Since i'm getting the Q9450 and these new processors support SSE4.1 i was wondering if maybe down the line 3r1c could implement features that make use of these new instruction sets.

-cheers-

Hey I'd consider making this... haven't seen how portable the source code is yet though.


BTW this program won't even run on XP x64.

are you sure you dont mean .mts file? i dont think there is such thing as .m2t. just .m2ts whic you are right tversity wont see, which is why i usually have to change those to .vob or .mpg. I didn't realize that .mts will allow the ps3 to see the file via tversity.

if this is the case then 3rlc, you could make a quick easy change to the output file extension choice of .m2ts to .mts instead. I know its just an extension but the fact that tversity can't see the .m2ts makes it much less usefull of a file extension for mkv2vob and would save ppl from changing it themselves.

I actually prefer .m2ts/.mts extension for avc files (x264 that didnt need transcoding) and .mpg for mpeg-2 files (x264 that needed transcoding)

I have a popcorn hour btw that i use to watch 1080p mkv with dts but its in a different room and it has bugs of its own so I still use mkv2vob and ps3 to watch stuff also.

speaking of .ts stuff. I had a recent cirque du soleil .ts that didn't play on the pch. I think i tried running it through tsMuxeR to make it a .mts that ps3 could play and that didnt work either but mkv2vob took the multiple .ts files joined them and made a file that will work on the ps3 and should on the pch also (as pretty much everything that works on ps3 will work on the pch so its kind of best to put stuff through mkv2vob anyway so i can play on both)

I believe it had to transcode the .ts video once joined but again it was the only thing that worked and this way i have a file that works on the ps3 and popcorn hour.

Any chance this app could have an option to convert AC3 5.1 to stereo AAC to make the file size smaller? I ask this in hopes that I could burn a file to a single layer DVD without having to encode the video or split it into chunks.

That would be great if someone could manage to get something similar running on OS X - its ok running via parallels/fusion/bootcamp or whatever, but a lovely looking mac version would be sweet!

Yeah, I'd love this issue to be resolved too - to save having to use other software to compensate.

mkv2vob is coming close to being a perfect application.


Also, I'd be very interested if Mr. 3r1c could clarify how his proggy determines if an video stream needs to be transcoded for playback on the PS3. Is there a list of which resolutions the PS3 supports without having to transcode?

i have just converted a film with subs (the orphanage 720p).

it was in a folder with the srt. i added directory, checked always encode subs and load from srt. i also had the split fat 32 feature on (for external hd with ps3).

however the second part of the output file has no subs transcoded. anyone else had this problem? is there a fix?

Insufficient Disk Space

Hello
I'm trying to transcode a movie (Alien vs Predator II) and I recieve the following massage - "Insufficient Disk Space on Drive D, You have 106.75GB you need 32540.38GB".
I need 32540.38GB? I think it's a bug, no?
