Want to change multiple m2ts files into mkv files

[jbitakis]

Hi, I have the mkvmergegui and it is great for 1 video clip at a time, but does anyone know how to add multiple m2ts video clips at one time. I am trying to place all my m2ts video clips into mkv containers in order to play it cleanly on the WD TV Live media player.James

I haven't seen any batch converter for mkvmerge. You probably have to write a custom batch script for mkvmerge.exe but as I have never used it I don't know how complex it is.

Maybe you can use ffmpeg also,

ffmpeg -i video.m2ts -acodec copy -vcodec copy video.mkv

and you can then make a simple batch following my simple tutorial, http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/356314-How-to-batch-convert-multiplex-any-files-with-ffmpeg to convert all your m2ts at once. You might be able to use mkvmerge.exe also.
