New here, so if its been covered I apologize, I could not find anything in my search.
So I have a few files from a friend on a portable HD, they are all MPEG-2 TS 1080 files, I would like to convert them to mkv, 720p & 1080p. I have Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate, however after the encode the audio is only in one channel at times.
I tried a few different audio options, mp3, AC3, and tried both "Stereo" and "6 channel" outputs but both are the same.
Anyone have any suggestions, maybe for this program, or another one that has a good video/audio output?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

there are lots of great free transcoders to try - mediacoder, handbrake, xmediarecode, multiavchd, etc.

Thanks. The xmediarecode seems to work and give the correct audio output, but the video is all pixelated.
Its strange, when playing the original it sounds fine, stereo audio from both front speakers. But after the conversion the audio is separated, like half in channel 1 and half in channel 2. -
I like Xilisoft, but you have to make sure you get everything right and even then it burps on itself once in awhile. Its attempt to make things too easy have made it too hard, sometimes.
If Xilisoft is giving you a good video stream at 720p, then here's what I would do:
1 - Convert the 1080p to a 720p .mkv with Xilisoft, ignoring the audio track settings completely cuz we're gonna throw it away in the end.
2 - Demux the 1080p MPEG2-TS with tsMuxer
3 - Demux the 720p .mkv from Xilisoft with tsMuxer
You should have a 720p video stream, a 1080p video stream, the original audio stream and the audio stream that you got from Xilisoft.
4 - Delete the Xilisoft audio track.
5 - Remux the 720p video stream with the remaining (original) audio track with MKVmerge
6 - Remux the 1080p video stream with the same audio track with MKVmerge
Should save you some encoding time for the 1080p to 1080p and you'll have no quality loss. -
Thanks smitbret, that seems to work for the most part. I was able to encode the vid to 1280x720, strip the audio and remux it with the good audio.
Its still in MPEG2 .ts format, but my WD Media player will play it....
Still going to keep trying to find a fix so I can encode to a mkv tho... Guess Im just stubborn...
Here are the MediaInfo files:
