Can someone help me find a nice guide to editing blu rays?

Hi there!

I've gotten tons of great tips from these forums over the past few years. I'm especially grateful to ADigitalMan's Guide to editing (is it really ten years old!?!) that I discovered a few years back.

Okay, so I have a couple of questions.

1. Is there a similar step-by-step guide to editing for those who want to use blu-ray discs? If so, could you link me?

2. I still use the techniques described in ADigitalMan's guide to edit DVDs (I like to make "clean" versions of Game of Thrones and movies for my parents and stuff). Are there any guides with more up-to-date or easier to use software that you might recommend?

Thanks everyone.

I've long since moved over to a Mac, but also found ADigitalMan's guide extremely helpful back in the day.

I'm not sure what the current best way is on Windows to rip a BluRay, and then convert the M2TS files into a suitable format. But doing a google search along the lines of the above should yield some results. You may find guides on FanEdit.org.

If you rip the audio on a BluRay to an AC3 using whatever method you find, you can follow ADigitalMan's guide for that at least to separate it into 6 discrete channels.

Perhaps the most important question here is....what's the fun of a "clean" version of Game of Thrones?! ;)
