So after my last post, it occurred to me that pretty much everything is on the internet… I found a chapter list that is close enough to allow me to go through and mark the chapter breaks quickly, so I will add chapters. I also found reference earlier in this thread that the .mkv is a better file to transfer to blu-ray.
So I downloaded it and demuxed it with tsmuxer. Somehow, the main .dts audio tracks are showing as way longer than the film. Track 1 is over 3 hours long according to the time slider. However if I scrub through it there is no dead air, and there is no distortion like anything got stretched. Whether I bring it into Encore or VLC, it’s still an hour longer than the film on the timeline. All the .dts tracks are long. Track 1) 3 hrs. 10 min. Track 2) 3 hours 14 min. Track 3) 2 hours 51 min. Anyone know why this is happening and how I can mux them to the right length? I’d like to be able to offer a BD .iso with the best quality content. I’m assuming that the DTS-HD audio is superior to the Dolby Digital offered in the AVCHD, and that the video track in the .mkv, being over double the size of the AVCHD, is higher quality encoding, and worth exchanging… Thoughts?

First of all, I think you could’ve gotten the chapters from the MKV itself.

Secondly, if you’re using tsmuxer, just mux it directly into a blu-ray rather than demux it.

But that is a known problem for demuxing those dts files, for some reason. If you really need to demux and remux, say to make a menu or something, you can patch in the DTS files again correctly using multiAVCHD once your image is otherwise finished.
