Hello,

I have several BDs here and want to backup them using AnyDVD HD and TSMuxer.
I ripped them all to my hard drive, which worked well. Then I loaded the movie playlist from the first BD into TSMuxer and unchecked all unwanted language audio streams. Then I remuxed it back to *.m2ts. Everything worked well.

But when I make an ISO out of that it won't work. I think it's because I deleted languages which were linked in the menu, which seems to be a problem.

Am I doing something wrong here ? Has someone of you guys ripped a Blu-Ray with menu and extras and deleted some languages and it worked well ?

Help would be really great.

Bye Sanjo

There is no way currently to keep the menus and extras and remove audio and subtitle tracks. You would have to re-author the disc with new menus in something like sonic scenarist. If i am mistaken please let me know.

I agree, as of yet there is no way to do this.

Oh, that's sad. Then we will have to wait for some kind of CloneBD :(

It's a lot more cpmplicated to do than on DVD as you have to take into account the JAVA menu system which can be different on each title

So the only way to shrink a BD is to re-author it into a new Blu-ray-folder-structure ?

At the moment, yes

Isn't it possible to replce the existing language streams with 0 byte dummy files so that the menu is working again ?

No, it's not, If it was that easy one of us would have done it months ago
