with the release of harmy's v2 in mkv, and
with our upcoming release for our project..
there always seems to be a lot of questions
and issues with burning to bluray or converting
to other formats..
list your issues or ideas and solutions here..
for me
================================
i'm downconverting the MKV to a lower bitrate avi,
with just one soundtrack (english stereo)..
i've used several programs but all have had problems,
and i'm using the latest versions..
FIRST : i have an uncorrupted, known good version of the
MKV from myspleen, you need to check that yours is good
also... then
=========================================
got MULTIavhcd from a suggestion...
computer number 1-> installed, but the program crashed
when loading the MKV (probably not enough memory?)
computer number 2 -> installed, everything loads, but the
program crashes when trying to do any kind of conversion
AVIDEMUX -> program crashes when trying to save to a video file
VIRTUAL DUB -> crashes
Total video converter -> crashes
TSmuxer -> program crashes
MKV toolnix -> able to split files, but the split files do not load
into any other program and give errors
Solveig multi media splitter -> crashes
All to AVI -> crashes
AUTOMKV -> doesn't do what i was looking for..
the only program that i sort of got to work was: Mediaencoder
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
attempt number 1 -> transcoding error at 50%, the thread locked
up, and crashed, however the file worked so i had half the movie
attempt 2-> tried setting a cutting point at 1 hour, but the program
ignored any set time points, and ALWAYS started at the beginning.
attempt 3 -> started from scratch, and now it seems to be working..
i went to DOOM9 forums, but couldn't find anything too helpful.
videohelp.com led me to a lot of tools, but most didn't work..
i saw a whole bunch of standalone MKV -> avi converters,
but all of them crashed..
at some point, i'll try to burn a bluray also,
we'll see how that goes.
later
