Hi Guys, I am having severe difficulty trying to fit a 1080p movie onto a Dual Layer disk burned as data in PS3 format. Basically I have 2 movies on my PC which are 1080p Matroska files and both sized at exactly 7.94gb which will fit on a DL dvd no problem. The issue I have is when I use MKV2VOB to convert them to PS3 format the converted output file is 8.16gb and I cannot fit it on a DL disc. Does anyone know how I can fit it on a DL disc and still be able to read it on my PS3? Is there a way to prehaps lower the quality a bit or is there some program that will automatically size the output file to what you want? Thank You
Ok, well I've manged to make quite a bit of progress, but now I have an issue with sound. I converted the mkv file to AVCHD - disc, transcoded at x264, the output file was 25gb. I then used BD Rebuilder v2.20.03 beta, to rebuild the movie, and compress to 7.4gb to I could burn to a DL -9 dvd. This worked great although it did take 14 hours to rebuild, but hey, beggers can't be chosers. The last step I done, was burned it using imgburn to create a UDF 2.5 disc. I have inderted it into my PS3, and it loaded perfectly, the video quality was almost identiacl to that of a Blu-Ray amazing - only problem was there was no sound? When I go to sound settings it just states '1 unknown' on the ps3? Does anyone know how I can change the sound before burning, or check to see what sound is encoded. I am so close yet still feel so far away...
Did you have synched sound after each step? ie. after generating the 25GB file from AVCHD? And after using ReBuilder? if so, I don't know, as I've never used any of the programmes & I don't use consoles. If there is an issue after using Rebuilder, you may want to check here as the author is one of the mods. Finally, if each step has shown a correct, working media file, I would assume the issue lies with the burning; not sure how or why. Try another programme and/or another DVD disc brand. Also the imageburn forum
