MKV to blueray

[NormaJ]

Hello, Merry Christmas and Happy New year for all.

Let's go now with my eternal problem, named hell264.

I have got a mkv file that has inside these files:
track2.ac3
track3.dts
track4.srt
track1 (Mpeg4/ISO/AVC)

When I was to extract these files with MKVExtract, I was told that x264 was detected, and asked to give the output file an extension. I set it to mp4.

My enconder wont accept this file.mp4 as input, nor file.h264, neither file.264.

I also have tried avisynth script, with no luck. These are my scripts:

#SOURCE
DirectShowSource("P:\DVD\MOVIE\Track1.h264", fps=24, convertfps=true)

#SOURCE
DirectShowSource("P:\DVD\MOVIE\Track1.h264")

#SOURCE
DirectShowSource("P:\DVD\MOVIE\Track1.264", fps=24, convertfps=true)

#SOURCE
DirectShowSource("P:\DVD\MOVIE\Track1.mp4", fps=24, convertfps=true)

The two last ones with and without the fps thing.

My best result has been a message error like this:

"unable to determine the duration of the video"

I have had this problem before, but just can't remember how did I fixed it. And at that time my video was not HD, anyway.

I have given a try to Alltoavi, but I would prefer not to convert the video to avi, but just encode it to DVD.

I'm trying right now the Gui4ffmpeg, directly to DVD, but my source is 1080p, and the Gui4ffmpeg doesn't allow this, so I am losing my HD video.

So I would like to know how should I get my video 1080px264 converted to a blue ray DVD, the best way.

Thanks in advance.

Check demuxed files with TSMuxer

This script works for me all the time with mkv files-
DirectShowSource("D:\stuff.mkv")
No need to demux the video for encoding.

I can't get my script to work, demuxed or not the mkv file, but thank you very much for your help anyway, johns0.

Looks like tsmuxer is doing a nice job right now. 91% and looking just fine! Thank you very much, noemi7

I am into the DVD thing for several years now, but just a beginner with HD and blu-ray stuff. Lots of things to learn.

Cheers

DirectShowSource will only work if you have all of the necessary codecs installed. I'd suggest you install FFDShow Tryouts and the Matroska Splitter if you want to use AVISynth and DirectShowSource.

Y have updated ffdshow and installed Matroska Splitter (I thought I had already done, but not), and now everything seems to be fine.

My script works:
#SOURCE
DirectShowSource("P:\DVD\movie.mkv")

with no need of .h264 extension, neither demuxing, and the best of all, even my encoder is accepting the mkv as input.

Thanks again, and my best wishes for the New Year for all.

Glad it worked out for you
