Ripping GOUT chapter stops for Harmy's Despecialized Editions

I’ve decided to use the chapter stops from the GOUT (because I can, not for any other particular reason) to make BD-Rs using TSmuxer, but they get out of sync as the movie progresses. I’m assuming the reason is that the GOUT is at 29.97fps, amd Harmy’s versions are 23.976. But the chapter data I’m using (ripped via ChapterGrabber 5.4) is in hh.mm.ss.mss format. So, should the differing framerates actually make that much of a difference? By the middle of Empire, it seemed to be off by several seconds. Not really a huge deal, but I’m curious as to why it’s happening. I believe the videos are GOUT compatible, so I figured they’d sync up fairly closely.

Well they’re synchronized with the NTSC GOUT.

I know you’re saying you’re doing it because you can, but is there a reason for not using Harmy’s chapters for your BD?

I’m using the full MKV files, not the AVCHD ISOs. Does the MKV have chapter stops? TSMuxer just wants to default to a stop every 5 minutes - not an issue at all, just something I thought to try as something to do.

Yes, the MKV has chapters. I just dragged my SW 2.5 into tsmuxer and it shows the correct chapters:

00:00:00.000
00:00:21.187
00:01:54.615
00:04:53.334
00:07:28.826
00:08:55.216

etc

I see an option for doing chapters every 5 minutes, but it is unclicked.

Huh. Well then…nevermind, lol. I muxed a blu-ray from TN1’s SSE and it didn’t seem to include any, so I guess I just made an assumption that the Despecialized Editions didn’t have any either. I never actually considered that Matroska files incorporated chapters. That’ll teach me to jump to conclusions. Harmy thought of everything!
