    I had a quick question. I just bought myself the latest LG Blu-ray burner, and a bunch of single layer BD-R's.

    I have on my computer a bunch of PS3 compliant AVCHD discs. I was wondering if there was any way/program that would allow me to take the M2TS files, after I extract them with tsmuxer, and re-author them into a blu-ray disc together. The files are all 1920/1080 and are encoded for playback on the PS3 so I cant imagine why it would not work. I just dont want to waste a $10 BD-R doing the wrong thing.


    Any Help would be appreciated.


    Btw- I'm not looking for anything fancy like menus, just one title after the other would do fine. And, I dont wish to just put the M2TS's in a data formated BD-R, I want it to be in the BDMV format.



    Thanks,
    Huck

    Try appending all of the m2ts files with tsMuxeR, mux to Blu-Ray. The only catch is all of the streams in all of the movies might need to be the same codecs, i.e. h264, AC3, etc. Also disable auto-chapter creation, or manually set the chapter points to where each movie ends.

    One other thing, I keep an eye for sales at the big-box stores and usually can get a spindle of DVD9s (25) for a buck-a-piece. Even if you put 3 movies at 7.5 GB ea on a BD25, it's still more economical going one movie per DVD9. I'm assuming your BDs were ~$15ea, also... keep an eye at monoprice.com, they have BD-Rs for $11.

    Anyway, your idea is intriguing, I will experiment later. I have a re-writablle BD25 and DVD5. Did your BD burner come with a BD-RE, my LG did.

    I will try that method. The movies are all encoded the exact same way so I am assuming it will work. The discs were actually $9.99 a piece, from newegg. I bought 5 of them with the burner and have yet to use one. As for the BD-RE, I didnt get one for some reason, although people who posted reviews said that they did. Very odd.

    Anyway, I'm going to give your method a shot. I wasnt sure if the Blu-ray output in tsmuxer actually worked for making a compliant blu-ray structure. I always see it being just used for AVCHD.

    I just tested, everything went fine and it worked just a described earlier.

    All codecs must be the same though. I tried 3 five minute samples, all with h264, three different audio streams; AC3, DTS, & LPCM. The result produced major syncing issues... did not get past the tsMuxeR stage.

    I then kept all streams the same and everything was fine. Also, keep in mind the resolutions of all movies must be the same. All either 1280x720 or 1920x1080.

    since they are 3-5 minutes movies
    use tsmuxer as above folks mentioned
    output to bd
    it should fit on dvd-5
    yes dvd-5 (single layer disc)

    i burned my movies like iceage came on to dvd9 two of them not bad
    (without compressing audio or video)
    each dvd will fit (dvd9)30minutes of the content
    since u r saying 15 minutes it might fit on to dvd5
    why u have to waste bd for that
    we can burn bd content to dvd

    Was it unclear that he would be using a BD-RE (re-writable)?

    even though that he is using bd-re sometime after he have to erase it
    at that time also he have to burn it on to something
