Which software to edit dreambox mpeg4 ts?

[manutd]

I have a dreambox (500HD) and Im using Sony Vegas to edit my recorded tv-shows.
Unfortunately Sony Vegas don´t support mpeg4 ts-files (only mpeg2 ts-files).

So, what im looking for is a videoeditor that can handle mpeg4 transport streams.
Would be great if there was a software that works/looks similar to sony vegas.


All suggestions are much appreciated!

Best regards: manutd

You can try remux the ts file to avchd m2ts/mts with tsmuxer and see how vegas handles it. Just open the ts in tsmuxer and output as a m2ts, no quality loss.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Unfortunately I get this message when I try to add the file: "Unsupported format. Some track was not recognized. This track was ignored."

Post the details from mediainfo, open the ts and copy everything under view->text.

Hmm. Try avidemux, open the ts, under video and audio choose copy, save as a mp4 and see it works in vegas. Or save as an HUGE avi, under video choose huffyuv, under audio choose pcm.

[manutd]

I get this message when I try to open the file:

[Baldrick]

Give up. .

Do you have a shorter sample you can post so we can try convert?

[manutd]

Here is a short sample: http://www.fileserve.com/file/8BZwrp9/20120103 1341 - SVT1 HD - Skidor_ Vrldscupen Tour de ski.ts

You are free to laborate with it as much as you want

[Baldrick]

I tried xmedia recode and it could remux to a m2ts and mp4, try open in vegas:

edit: But I couldn't convert to any other format in xmedia recode...hmm...

[manutd]

I really appreciate your help! Unfortunately I get this messages:


"File C:\Users\*****\Desktop\20120103 1341 - SVT1 HD - Skidor_ Vrldscupen Tour de ski.mp4 could not be opened."

and

"An error occurred during the current operation. An exception has occurred" when I try to open the m2ts-file...


Guess I´ll just have to find another software to edit my hd-clips.

I´ve used VideoReDo but it´s not even close to the potential that Vegas gives you.

[Baldrick]

I can convert the ts to an avi with lossless lagarith with virtualdub and the ffmpeg input plugin. But it's 40MB/second...and even bigger for 1920x1080 video.
