Visor said:An update on my jerky playback issues... I took the advice from the other posters here and burned Ep. 4 again but with Nero this time: still the same issues. I obtained Ep. 5 today and burned it with Nero, and voila, it worked perfectly. That leads me to believe that the problem with Ep. 4 is that my Sony player can't properly handle pure 24 fps video. Incidentally, my player recognized Ep. 5 as "True 24 fps" even though it was encoded at 23.976 fps. I'm glad you've decided to encode the rest of the movies this way (and hopefully go back to fix Ep. 4 one day?)
Is there any possibility of editing out the dance number in Jedi for the eventual release?
BandedJustice, I think the issue here is that Adywan has to use what's available in high-def. He can't go back to the old "Lapti Nek" version of the song because that version of the film has never been aired on HDTV. He can't just edit out the full song and go straight to the slave girl being dropped into the Rancor's dungeon either, because that would just be plain wrong. If you really want "Jedi Rocks" gone, you'll have to look at standard def options.
Oh respectfully, please let the dance number in the AVCHD release of Jedi.
Oldschooljedi, I think you're missing a word in your above statement... I can't quite tell if you're saying you want the "Jedi Rocks" dance number left in Jedi or if you don't want it, LOL.
sorry to here about the issues you are having. I do have an idea how to fix this for you.
Download TSMuxer. Load the .m2ts file into it. untick the main video file and select demux to demux all the audio tracks. Once this is done retick the video file and remove all the other tracks (subs too i'm afraid). keep TSMuxer open.
Now you'll need Besweet to import the audio tracks into to convert them to 23.976fps. load each audio file into besweet individually and select ac3 as the output. Now for the 5.1 track you need to click on the "ac3 & ogg" tab. change the bitrate to 640 and click back on the besweet tab. now tick "change framerate" and input 24000 into the first box and 23976 into the second. now output your 5.1 audio track. now for the 2 other audio tracks do the same as above but change the bitrate to 192.
Now you have your new audio tracks import them all back into TSMuxer. Make sure that the 5.1 track is the first audio track in the list below the video file. Now click on the video stream to highlight it. Tick the "change fps" box and change the value to "24000/1001". This will just change the header in the video to play at 23.976fps and doesn't add or remove any frames. Now select "create bluray" as the output and create your folders. Once this is done open imgburn and import both the BDMV & Certificate folders and change the udf file system to 2.50 and burn. everything else should be done automatically by Imgburn.
Hope this helps

Just an idea.
Thank you for taking things in your own hands.
Well these are restorations of the Theatrical release versions of the saga (SE & PT) so i won't be editing out any thing that was in the movie in 1997
