:whistling-----Re: Serenity 2005 1080p BD9 x264-DOWN

These instructions were provided with this title...

""- For playback on ps3/bluray-player run mkv2bluray.bat and chose "B".

This will convert the mkv to bluray and create an image that will play

in the PS3 or a Bluray Player.""

Just a daft question........... if i grab another x264 title, and re-name the filename to the same as this title,
and run the .bat file that comes with THIS title, choose option "B".......
will it give me a working iso image for PS3 / DVD player, the same way as it will for this title?

Its just that not many groups, are prividing a .BAT file for easy conversion to something that can be played in BluRay standalone, Or PS3........ i just wondered about this easy workaround?

Thanks!........
 
Sounds like it would go, but I would see if the audio and video quality are the same and the audio codec, I'm not sure if mkv has different kinds.
But theoretically it should work and since its a .bat should be easy as long as their isn't any keys or codes specific to different discs.
 
yeah, its X264 (?)

But thats not standard enough!

The Public want a disk they can stick in their players. And then swap with theire neighbors....... lol
 
Yup......... gonna give it a go........ TNX......

I really am just after the most simple way i can get a 1080p blueray rip x264 to disk in a format that will boot just like a dvd, in bluray player or PS3.

The way they are being released at the moment tho, its made a ball ache un less ya gonna stream or run off HD.........
 
I'm not sure how the HD scene is setup, it's still pretty new. I would gather they went x26 right now, because of the price of disks, and mostly everyone now a days uses some sort streaming device.

I man once the speeds and enough people want BDR and such well see them like we do the DVDR's, but that's a huge jump from 8GB to 50GB :lol:

Actually, just like AVCHD was just a couple years ago, with the PS3 the only thing out there that could play that 'type' of disk (with h/x264 encoding), the newest 'batch' of players (jvc, lg, and a couple of others just coming out right now) can play BD, AVCHD, x264/mkv, and in the case of I belive the LG, whatever wacky HD divx format there is.

So, that's the latest wave, and the early adopters of BD players are simply going to be left behind (or left wanting to upgrade).

Again, the 'problem' with streaming vrs. low-cost removables (dvd5/9) is the (high) probability of loss due to drive failure. My 'small' RAID array has been attempting a rebuild for just about one full week now, and I'm about to give up (I had about 1/3rd of the array backed up on other drives, though, so it's not a 'complete' loss, although I'm sure one or more of the drives is toast).

So even for a 'short term' solution, filing up a bunch of drives with stuff is,,, VERY short term. I have 4.5TB of drive space crammed fill of just stuff I've leeched off the newsgroups, not even counting the 2TB of stuff on that hosed raid array.

But I'm ramping up to go into some full-scale production of mkv's just as soon as I get all the h/w and s/w together, just like I did with standard DVD's almost 10 years ago.
 
Even if they did sites wouldn't upload them because they are too big for their autos and servers. When DVDs stop being released then they will probably switch fully to DVD9 releases of AVCHD. And sometime in the far future once blurays are extremely cheap like a DVD5 is today they might switch to BD-25
 
just use mkv2vob and a flash drive. remember to use the 3.99 gb file setting in mkv2vob. If you are intent on using your ps3 as a media player this is the way to go. I believe there is also a utility called swiss knife that you can format a external drive to have files over 4 gb. You still should use mkv2vob on the files anyway. Also on a flash drive you have to make a folder called "video" and put everything there.

I don't think its worth the trouble converting to dvd-5 to play on the ps3. I suggest getting a networked media tank.
x264 is the standard codec for hd material. Its so effective that you can compress large 1080p sources down to 720p and not tell much of a difference.
 
Usually I use Tsmuxer to do this job.
Don't have any experience with mkv2bluray.bat.
But someone said(from google):
"PS3, BD standalone:
- extract all files to the same directory
- run the batch file (.bat)

mkv2bluray is specific to this release and will not
enable other releases to play in BD standalone or PS3"

So,maybe the attached mkv2bluray.bat file is specific to the relaese. You may need to change the content of the bat file for another release.
Just my guess.
 
Hmmm Interesting......... Ya would think that some clever chap would come up with a cool util that would act as a simple "mkv2bluray" util...... that would fix all....! That would be NICE!
 
No torrent sites release them anymore. They did initially because they did not know if the PS3 would be hacked soon. They can't hack it to play play backups so they don't release them anymore. There is still a scene that releases them but you need axx to get them.

They need to be backed up and archived for a later date when they might be usable
 
Well it can't really look the same since the width of the two are different. 720p has to have a 1280 width and a 1080p has to have 1920 width.

But in terms of quality and transparency to the source some 720p can look like the 1080p in terms of quality if the source is shitty
