Please no comments about just using the MKV and using a streaming device (which i already have...) and telling me how physical media is dead, blah blah blah. Or telling me to just wait...

 May be not the best way to end a question when looking for an answer ....

Google can help you though .....

 that is just making a Blu from existing files, not converting the MKV. Unless I missed something...

and the only reason for my "end" is that is often the "answer" people give. Nothing to really answer the question...

TANSTAAFL

Sometimes the price of knowledge is patience and politeness.

 And I would wholeheartedly disagree with you on "There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch". Harmy provides us with his fabulous work for "free", I'm using free tools (at the moment) to do this work.

On any forum, it seems there are those that will help and those that just want to tell you "their thoughts" on why you are doing it wrong. I see it all the time in this thread alone. And I have Googled a million ways to make a BD from a MKV and they almost always lead to TSMuxer, which wouldn't even open the MKV I had. It would remux the files, so I am trying something on my own, thank you very much.

Thanks for the replies...I didn't use TSMuxer, because of the lack of menus (and it didn't like the MKV as I downloaded it), but thinking about it, maybe it can spit out a MTS file (in the Stream folder) that I can use in DVD Architect without reencoding.

Can anyone PM me or post the best way to convert the MKV to a BD WITH a Menu and retaining all the audio tracks? I have demuxed the whole thing, and tried rebuilding it in DVD Architect but it didn't like the DTS files, nor the H264 video. I tried renaming the h264 to mp4 etc...and nothing seemed to work.

Since, I can't downgrade my ipad, I'm out for this project...sorry guys!

I have a phone with ios 5.1.1 and can load any version of iTunes on my spare PC. I am getting the book tonight or tomorrow too.

I have (had?) a airline copy of the movie that I know was prior to editing for home video. It had the Betty Boop frame, the Baby Herman finger, and the one "Non-Panty" frame of Jessica in the car crash...Maybe I can dig up. It's probably 3 gen VHS though. 

Edited to add: Guess that is not really needed now...unless it was just to confirm certain scenes that might have been changed.  

Can't wait for the Blu Ray and your commentary. I grabbed the AVCHD but will also get the BD when it hits. 

I've got 4 NTSC Laserdisc players and just got a Pioneer Elite CLD-97 which is considered one of the finest LD players ever produced. I do have a Panasonic DVD Recorder, as well as a Digital 8mm camera with pass through to FireWire that I've used for computer transfers. What is a decent PCIe type capture card if I wanted to go analog?

I have 100s of laserdiscs and would love do some decent captures.
