copy blu-ray movie and keep HD audio?

Hi, can you do a straight copy of a blu-ray movie to a blu-ray disc? if so will this work as the original and play in blu-ray players (not pc drives). Also for those that have been ripping for a while, what percentage of blu-ray movies are on 50GB discs?

Cheers guys, any help is much appreciated.

Hi,

VSO Software were able to copy a BluRay to a BD-RE media using Blindwrite (AnyDVD HD running of course)for testing purposes.

With the price of BluRay media, that's still untinkable in my case.

Also if you rip the whole BluDisk Structure, VSO CopyToDVD can also burn the BluDisk Project to a BD media.

ImgBurn (Freeware) can also burn it, just make sure you select UDF 2.5 for the File System.

 

Thanks.

 

OK guys new question, can you copy a blu-ray disc onto a DVD-R (or DL) or blu-ray disc (25gb) and keep the HD audio track, i.e. Dolby True HD, DTS HD, etc.

Thanks,
TR.

 

Yes to part 1

No to the audio part

 

Thanks for the quick reply, could I ask why its not possible to keep the HD audio on back ups. Is it the space required or a technical issue?

 

You got it !

many thanks.

 

Always welcome, and welcome to aD !

 

According to bluraystats.com 58.41% of all releases so far are on BD50. If you filter for all 2008 releases - 66.54% are on BD50.

Go to this site:

Click on the Size tab and choose BD50 then click Filter. You'll get a list of all titles on 50Gig discs.

 

u can rip the movie and keep most audio except one
true-hd there is no software that u can make a backup with this audio unless u copy the whole disc

other audio formats like dts-hd,lpcm and ac3 u can use to rip the movie only thru Tsmuxer
other audio format left ,which is dts-ma iam not sure about this format

could anybody confirm!!!???

 

You can keep any audio stream you like, including HD audio... especially if you are using a BD25. If capacity is still an issue the video can be recoded to accomodate the HD audio track. With a 2hr movie, most of the time the video and HD audio will fit on a BD25 both untouched.

-LPCM muxes/plays fine with tsMuxeR
-DTS HD-MA muxes/plays fine with tsMuxeR
-TrueHD does mux, does not play using tsMuxeR

Workarounds for the tsMuxeR/TrueHD issue are;
-Mux to m2ts with video, then remux to Blu-ray with tsremux. There have been instances where this does not work... like with The Dark Knight.
-Convert TrueHD to LPCM using eac3to, then make that file tsMuxeR compatible using pcm2tsmu. There is no quality loss going this route, unfortunately the space that the LPCM track will take up is enormous. If you intend on streaming, or have a BD-RE 50GB this is not an issue.

 

thanks guys, I've just order my new LG blu-ray burner and some 25gb blu-ray disc. So when its all here and set up I will have a play and no doubt be back here asking for your help again.

Cheers,
