Howdy everyone! I'm new here so I'd like to say thanks in advance for any help you can offer me. I've been trying endlessly to burn the despecialied versions of the trilogy onto a BD-R disk that my blue ray player can read. According to my blue ray player's manual the BD-R must be recorded in BDMV format and it says unclosed discs may not work. I have the video files as .mkv files and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create a BDMV file to burn the disk using ImgBurn. I've searched and searched so I apologize if this has been answered already but if someone could point me to a simpleton's guide I would greatly appreciate it. I'm trying to get my fiance to watch the movies and she deserves to see them on our big screen rather than a computer monitor. Thank you very much for any help you may offer!!

I think the simplest way would be to download tsmuxer along with tsmuxer gui. Open up tsmuxer and drag the mkv file into it. Uncheck any audio or sub files you don't want and then select bluray folder for output. This should output a blu ray compliant bdmv folder that you can drag into imgburn and put on a bd-25. You will not have any menus but the movie will load up and play.

Luke threw twice…maybe.

Well I'm already an idiot, do I click start muxing or save meta file?

I just went ahead and did start muxing first and then save meta file (in that order) , so we'll see how the burn goes. Thanks so much for the help and I'll reply if it works or not!

THANK YOU!!!! I've been trying this for months without avail and I already have a working copy of A New Hope! I would mouth-kiss you if I knew you I'm so happy, so count yourself lucky for not being in my living room! Thanks again!
