MKV to M2TS Video length shortened.

[maven]

I have some DVD's I encoded with Handbreak to MKV files. I am trying to mux them to M2TS with tsMuxeR and I tried PS3Muxer. Both programs gave me a shortened video file from 23mn 37s to 20mn 42s. In MediaInfo it shows the Duration at 23mn 37s on audio and video? I tried to mux with different frame rates but still haven't had any luck? The frame rate from the DVD was 29.97. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I muxed other MKV files with no problem with PS3Muxer, then this issue came along so I tried tsMuxeR? Thanks for any help.

[greymalkin]

does it still play the entire duration without looking sped up? does the audio stay in sync? I've had videos playtimes get shortened before after doing a vbr encode but the video was actually fine...the program just didn't know how to read it I guess.

Thanks for the response. The demux video is shorter than the audio, so the audio is way out of sync. I can upload the original encoded mkv file around 300mb if anyone wants to see what they can do with it. Thanks agin for the help.
