Hi Guys,

I hope i'm posting this in the correct place, seems the most relevant.

Firstly i'll just say i have no problem converting 99% of Transport Streams to SD-DVD. I know of all the required programs and settings, so i'm not new when it comes to this.

However, i have just grabbed off Usenet a TS which was recorded from the BBC (UK) HD stream.

It is a H.264 1080i stream, in a TS container. Now i have had a good look on google and found several programs/solutions on how to encode these streams. However, after several hours and program upon program, i cannot get anything to work. Here is what i have managed -

- demuxed to .mpv and .ac3 files.

Now this worked eventually using a program called xport, but from here is where my problems start.

I cannot find a MPEG-2 Encoder that will load this file, let alone re-encode it.

Cinema Craft Encoder either doesn't load it at all, or if i load it with a AviSynth Script it crashes. The same goes for any other program. They crash (stop responding) when i try to add the file.

I have had both the CoreAVC codec and ffdshow codec installed, and it hasn't worked with either.

From further research i have also found that the BBC HD stream uses MBAFF Interlacing, which is maybe causing a problem?


My PC:
XP SP 2
Intel Celeron D 2.8 Ghz
1.18GB Ram
Not sure on Video card, but it's one that came in my PC, bought 1 1/2 years ago.

So does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thanks
