    What is the difference between AVCHD and Blu ray stucture? They both have the m2ts. ending to them. So should I convert my AVCHD to Blu ray on a program like tsmuxer before authoring them?

    "Although AVCHD shares many format similarities with Blu-ray Disc, it is not part of the Blu-ray specification. Consequently, AVCHD-playback is not universally supported across all Blu-ray Disc players. "
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVCHD


    So if your blu-ray player supports avchd you can just burn the bdmv folder on dvdr or blu-ray.

    AVCHD folder tree uses 8.3 names vs long file names in Blu-Ray (e.g. 00000.MTS vs 00000.m2ts).

    What do you mean "convert your AVCHD"? Are you talking about camcorder files or editor output?

    I mean does'nt MultiAVCHD convert your AVCHD files to a Blu ray output? And then once that is done, do I use imagburn to burn the video to bluray?

    Yes either AVCHD or Blu-Ray format. Imgburn can be linked within MultiAVCHD so that end result is a DVD or BD-R. See http://multiavchd.deanbg.com/tutorial.php

    Thanks, but when I then check imagburn and after multiavchd is done, I go to imagburn and then click on "write image file to disk" I can't seem to find these files that multiavchd changed to avchd to HD/dvd (I am trying to burn the HD video to DVD so that if I screw up it only cost me a cheap dvd disc vs. a more expensive blu ray disc). So what do I do now?

  7. You have to be in build mode in ImgBurn, not write mode. You are not burning an .iso image like with regular DVD's. You will be burning an AVCHD folder. Put ImgBurn in build mode, click on the little folder icon, and select the folder that was created in MultiAVCHD. Once its selected, then click on the little calculator icon in ImgBurn. You should get a prompt letting you know that your folder contains a Blu-ray file structure, which is what you want. Click yes and it will switch the profile to the correct one (UDF 2.50 I believe). You should be good from there.

    Thanks, now it worked and the computer played the HD DVD (blu-ray file structure) video clip flawlessly, but when I put the dvd in my samsung blu-ray player, it played the video perfect, but about halfway through the video clip, the audio stops playing. I figure that its got to be something goofy with the sambung blu-ray player, right???

  9. Not necessarily. It could very well be a problem with the source file. Play the raw file back on your computer at the point where the audio gets dropped on your Samsung and see what happens.

    The raw file plays just fine. I played it on the computer already. I assume that by "raw file", you mean the original video file clip taken from the camcorder placed on the computer? Yes, it plays fine on my computer.

    Here is the mediainfo about this file:

    1920x1080 60p is outside the Blu-Ray spec. You're lucky it plays.

    Audio looks OK

    Which Blu-Ray model is this?

    samsung BD-D6500/ZA. So why does it play on my Blu ray player that is on my computer, but not the stand alone samsung model?? Should I change the output on the Multiavchd software to get it to play on my samsung blu ray player?
