Feature Request: M2TS/TS to MKV
Posted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 9:36 pm
I don't want to be rude, requesting a feature with my first post, but as I am somewhat troubled by the lack of this particular feature in an otherwise versatile software, I wonder if the lack of a ??? to MKV remuxer follows a specific logic?
As I understand, MakeMKV relies on infos derived from .ifo, .bdmv, .inf etc. for accurate stream infos, but couldn't it just as well be "persuaded" to open m2ts or ts (or even vob) files, without specific infos, which stream has which language code?
To be more specific, the Hauppauge HDPVR using the program HDPVRCapture records m2ts/ts files which, due to the process, contain only one video data stream and one audio stream (Ac3 or aac). To remux them into MKV I need to TSmux' them into RAWs and MKVToolnix' them as MKV, whereas your program might be able to do the whole process in one go.
As of this day, I am not aware of any mac software able to do this one-step-remuxing, mkvmerge won't open M2TS/TS and tsmuxer doesn't save MKV, but as your software already crosses the border on both fronts, maybe you could be persuaded to include such a feature in future releases?
But even if not, thanks very much for this great app.
