HD DVD to Blu-ray ???

[jedisinclair]

Does anyone know if there's a way to convert HD DVD to Blu-ray keeping the Menu? Clown BD does it without menu. I normally prefer "Movie-Only" mode but this is a concert that I'd like to have the menu if at all possible.

You have to do it manually, extract menus, etc from the hd dvd(maybe with eac3to or EVO demux) and then author a new blu-ray(with https://www.videohelp.com/tools/sections/authoring-bd-hd-dvd ). Probably not worth the time it would take...

Thanks Baldrick... I tried using EVO Demux, but I couldn't figure out how to keep the menu... if anyone could provide a guide, I would love it. To me, it WOULD be worth the time if I can get it to work.

I've NEVER heard of anyone who converted HD DVD to BluRay and converted the menus. I have only heard of "movie only" conversions. Menus were done using completely different programming methods in the 2 formats and given HD DVD's short lifespan, I would be shocked if anyone took the time to write something that could convert the menus, assuming such conversion is even possible to automate.

movie only is the only thing you can do...the menu structures are totally different. So:

1. Do movie only
2. Then use multiavchd to make menu
