What's the best muxing apps today?

[gs684]

Hi all,

I have some old DVDs ripped to separate m2v and ac3 files, and would like to mux them into combined mpeg-2 files (without re-encoding). What are some good modern programs for doing that today? Most apps I found for this seem to be around 15 years old.

In the alternative, what's a good app that can directly extract a combined MPEG-2 file from a DVD ISO?

While I'm at it, I also have some modern mp4 HD video with separate SRT subtitle files. What's a good app to mux that together also?

Thanks!

Clever Ffmpeg-GUI can mux m2v and ac3 to mpg (and other container), can also mux mp4 and srt to mp4/mkv.
If your DVD's are unprotected, it can also rip the full movie to a single vob and remux them to mpg.

I prefer videomass and losslesscut but not totally sure if they can do exactly what you wish or not. Both can concatenate multiple videos without re-encoding.

Tsmuxer can if you want a gui to a m2ts file

For MP4 and SRT files MKVToolNix can mux both to a MKV file.
As for MPEG2 and AC3, TMPGEnc Plus has the ability to multiplex, de-multiplex, merge and cut with its MPEG Tools.
There is also AVIDemux which can do all of the things you mention for both MPEG, AC3, MP4, and SRT.

I wonder is there a DV-to-DV remuxer? It seems not all DV codecs/containers are created equal, and some of the DV encodes made with, say, Cedocida, cannot be displayed by some editing apps.

DVDate, by Paul Glagla. His website might throw a virus alert, but it is clean.

In DVDate, Video>Change the codec. I think the presented codecs are the ones you have installed.

If you have a DVD ISO file and you want to extract a combined MPEG-2 file, you could try using a program called "ImgBurn". It's a bit older, but still works great and is also free to download.

Could you explain how to do this with Imgburn?
