SOLVED - What do you need (next)?

[SamuriHL]

Sweet. Fernando, is there anything else we can do to help out?

[Fernando]

Be patient.

At least a couple of weeks.

[SamuriHL]

No problem on that one. I wasn't under any assumption we'd see the results soon. I just meant was there anything else you needed from us to make this happen? But it sounds like you're about to lock yourself in a room for a few weeks. That's fine. Good luck!!

I just hope people can be patient and not start posting every few days asking when it's coming out

I looked through the thread and didn't see this (forgive me if its up there somewhere) but how about iso support so the video and audio and subtitle tracks are put back into a compliant burnable format. That way it could be mounted into VCD or burned to watch on a PS3 for example.

Edit: my bad it is up there.. count this as another vote for iso support

And please don't say CloneBD. Yeah, that's the end of the road. Be productive

TS/PS remuxer with TS/PS converter, plus a native TS-converter. (simplified TS = Bluray container, PS = HDDVD container). That's what I have. Maybe an EAC3 to AC3 converter?

What do you use as tools/steps to convert your HD disks? I'm normally not the person that reads conversion threads or uses thousands of different tools. I'm a do-it-myself person so normally what-I-need-is-what-I-code.

Any helpful comments appreciated. And guys please no "thank's thats great" or other posts. Just think it, don't write it. I can sense you all.

I've started to write my HDDVD-muxer, but somehow got stuck due to the lack of specification of the HDVMG and Standard-HDVTS data structures. However, I was able to determine the correct specification of the Advanced-HDVTS data fields, but this is useless w/o the other 2 parts.

My plan was to rip .m2ts, strip them down to the necessary parts, re-encode them with MeGui to make it HDDVD compatible, and then mux into a HDDVD-3X which can be played on my HDDVD standalone players.

Now, I've changed plans after I purchased my new HTPC. I just rip the disks into isos and play them from HDD w/o conversion. Apart from that, I find the following tools very useful: tsMuxer, RipBot264, eac3to.

Trust me, that was right up there in my top 5 list of things to have. Very important to most of us to be able to output to ISO so we can skip an additional step.

Hi,

I'd like to be able to do the following:-

drop in a BLU-Ray or HD-DVD

Select the main movie and what ever sound format i want. Then get those items only on to the hard drive so they can be played either by PDVD. This would have to be either a file that could be played, or an ISO that could be mounted

I'm not interested in further compression (that defeats the object of Hi-def in my humble opionin)

Cheers,

Mark.

PS is it ready yet? (just kidding)

[Fernando]

Thanks guys.

I'm closing this thread now as we go in circles and most users don't read the thread from beginning.
