This is from The Empire Strikes Back.

These markers were taken from The Empire Strikes Back chapters xml document that is created after extracting raw data (using MKVExtractGUI-2).

Although the chapter markers are similar to Star Wars, they aren’t exactly the same.

Also AVCHD is for burning to a DVD9 or Dual Layer disc. A Blu-ray player can read AVCHD. But AVCHD is not truly a “Blu-ray.” DVD9 or DVD+R/-R DL has storage capacity around 8.5 gb. While a standard BD+R has storage capacity of 25 gb.

My point is this: if you want to convert/retain most or all of the MKV data, it would be wiser to convert to Blu-ray. MKV files are roughly 17-20gb. A Blu-ray will easily contain converted MKV file. MKV can be converted to AVCHD format but will not contain everything the MKV offers due to DVD9/DVD+R/-R 8.5 gb capacity.

I was able to burn all three films using the Blu-ray options I mentioned. And yes, all three films work on PS3 and other Blu-ray devices.
