Convert VC-1 Encoded Blu-ray Rip .m2ts to .mp4 in 32-bit Windows 7

[luigi2000]

In Windows 7 the megui avisynth player only shows a solid green screen for any VC-1 encoded .m2ts blu-ray rip.

I performed this process to allow WMP12 to show VC-1 encoded video with directx instead of media foundation. Now WMP12 directx playback of VC-1 is nominal (works OK).

The problem is megui avisynth player shows vertically advanced red and blue.



There are several audio streams in this file including uncompressed audio. Suggestions?

859x490 is a very peculiar resolution. Is that the true resolution or has the picture been resized? My guess is that your chroma and green line problems are directly related to the resolution.

Keep your vc-1 blu ray rips original resolution and play w/ VLC Player

The resolution is the standard 1920 x 1088. I resized the client area for Snipping Tool to demonstrate the advanced red and blue colors.

I play BD isos w/ PDVD8 @ home in Win 7 Ultimate x64/MC7/MyMovies3, but VLC works for me to play the .m2ts file @ work where I can't install PDVD

ps. use TsMuxer to save 1 "non-HD" audio track

Make it 1920x1080 either by cropping or by resizing and see if the problem goes away. You can test the script in a player before doing the reencoding. Are you doing any other filtering in the script?

Thank you for the responses.

Let me be clear. Playback of the source rip in MPC Home Cinema always has been correct. Playback of the source rip in WMP12 after the filter changes is correct. Playback is not the problem.

The problem is the playout in megui avisynth player. The video is distorted as shown above.

Next I will try demuxing the rip, and will post the results.

Huh? WHY do I care? I am trying to get megui to re-encode blu-ray rips encoded in vc-1 inside .m2ts, to be encoded in h264 inside .mkv at a quarter of the original size for playback in a media tank.

Transport streams (in this case 1920 by 1088) use resolutions of modulus 16. The ATSC broadcast stream is 1920 by 1080.

Demuxing the video stream makes no difference in this Avisynth failure. Next I'll remove Avisynth 2.58 and install v2.57.

By experimenting, I found that the problem is with AviSynth 2.5.8 and 2.6.0 a2. However VC-1 decode by AviSynth 2.5.7 works fine in 32-bit Win7.
