BR - Interesting,If Useless

I took a SD DVD and used TSmuxer to convert it a BR directory. It took all of 2 minutes for it to create a BR burnable directory,which my player recognized and played as a BR,SD definition of course.

Sweet mateyboy.. thats good info..maybe someone will publish how to put six or seven DVD on one BR-RW.

I haven't tried that with SD, but presume you would just add each title to the list in tsMuxer. Done it a few times with Blu-Ray episode discs to strip out the menus, though. Selecting the correct *.mpls gets everything, including chapters. Titles play seriatim, one after the other.

So will tsMuxer accept the *.IFO for the main movie?

"Seriatim"??? I had to look that up at dictionary.com. I'm over 40, born and raised in the USA and college educated and I think that's the first time in my life I have ever seen that word or heard of it. Did you get one of those "Word of the day" calendars for Christmas last year?

I have some Latin (learned long ago), enough to understand Latin historical references/quotations/inscriptions common in graduate level history books. That also was long ago, it sometimes comes out. It wasn't meant to impress.

No it doesn't.

I had a thought about this even though I'm not in the market for a bluray burner yet.

Would you be able to take two full dual layer dvds and merge them into one bluray structure?

My thinking would be to take full iso rips of the extended edition Lord of the Rings dvds. Then you could have two 8gig rips and put them on one bluray disc.

Now I think single layer blurays are 25gigs and dual are 50gig right? So you could really put the extended editions on single bluray discs (1 per movie for 3 total) instead of 6 dvds that it takes now.

Interesting. Plus no loss of quality or extras or anything. Keep the commentary tracks and more importantly keep the dts audio AND the dolby digital.

Has anyone tried this compilation idea? How would the transition work from disc one to disc two? Would it have to be manually selected from a main menu? That wouldn't be bad at all since you would not need to physically swap discs.

I did take two Star Trek DS9 episode disks and merged them and TSmxer created one large m2ts file. It played on my computer,with each episode playing in sequence. I didn't burn it. You could probably fit all 3 Star Wars on one BR25 since the movie only is usually less then 7Gb's.

Interesting. Than you could have all 6 Star Wars on 2 br's instead of six dvds......
