mkv to dvd maintain dts

[nirbhayn]

hi
i am converting mkv files to dts however the get converted to ac3, iam doing this by favc. how do i maintain the dts track on dvd

I don't think favc has the option to retain dts.

You would have do it manually. I don't think there are any 1-click wonders that will do this for you.

One way might look like this: extract the streams with mkvextractgui, re-encode the video stream into a DVD compliant video (frameserve with avisynth into an mpeg encoder like cce or hcenc), import your assets into dvdlab-pro => author disc

It would be much easier to by the DVD

OK i converted video to m2v and now its time to multiplex that dts track with m2v. what i notice is that video is 1hr 45min where as the dts track is 1hr 47 min long.

and how long is the mkv video clip?

Try anyway mux with muxman(I think it supports dts or maybe it's just the pro version).

Use mediainfo to determine the stream info (such as running time of the video & audio streams) in the .mkv

How did you convert the video? Did you preserve the framerate as the original?

there is a 2 min gap between audio and video. while converting audio i converted to pal.
