I had read that thread where there are some successes and failures. I was hoping that you might mention the one that
you used 'quite a number of times'.
Nonetheless, I see this list
(from post 53):
1.Demux your Evo/M2ts to VC1 ES
2.vc1conv to remove Pullddown
3.VC12AVI to mux VC1 into AVI Container
4.Solveig ASF Muxer to mux VC1 AVI to ASF Container
5.Reencode your Audio to WMA. Use eac3to to get 6 mono waves from DD+/TrueHD/LPCM and use WMencoder
6.WMStreameditor to mux a conform WMV File
Is that what you are recommending? Or perhaps this (
from post 78):
1) Demux the required video (vc1) and audio streams using eac3to. The audio can be demuxed directly to 6 mono wave files using the .wavs extension
eg eac3to FEATURE_1.EVO+FEATURE_2.EVO 1: video.vc1 4: audio.wavs
The eac3to thread contains a great deal of info regarding the use of this tool for those that are unfamiliar with it.
2) Remove pulldown flagging by running the vc1 file through vc1conv. Note that madshi may soon include this step within the eac3to tool (Thanks madshi)
3) Convert vc1 file to AVI using vc12avi. At present, this splits the output file into 2GB chunks, so...
4) Use VirtualDub to open the first AVI video.00.avi. Append video.01.avi and make sure the option is checked to automtically load successive files. VirtualDub mode may display an error saying that there is no suitable decompressor. Just click OK and ignore it as no decompressor is required for Direct Stream Copy. Save the AVI ensuring that Direct Stream Copy is ticked.
5) Load the large AVI file into Solveif ASFMuxer and output an asf file with asf file extension.
6) Encode the 6 mone wave files to WMA format. My tool of choice for this is Windows Media Encoder.
7) Mux the .asf and .wma files to WMV using Windows Stream Editor. Tip: Add both files into the left hand side window, fully expand both files by clicking the little + symbol next to each one, put a tick in the last box next to each file and then click the Add button between both windows. The output window will now contain the output or 'Audience' (?). Save a WMV file.
Is that it? Or maybe even this (
from post 84):
I finally got VC-1 to play on a PS3! Here's what I had to do:
1. Demux a BluRay VC-1 stream (HD DVD doesn't work).
2. Mux the stream with VC12Avi
3. Mux in the audio with ffmpeg (You can skip this step)
4. Remux to WMV with Solveig ASF Muxer (May crash, but still works).
Play your video on the PS3! (The PS3 may say it's corrupted, but it still plays)
I tried remuxing to avi, m2ts, no luck. Appears to just support WMV.
-----------------
Since there are a variety of 'solutions' I was hoping for a bit more specificity.
Thanks.
