Adding MTS files with LPCM to make Blu-ray video compliant disks with tsMuxeR GUI

[terjejh]

Hello community - this is my very first discussion here.

I have several HDV camcorder M2T files I want to preserve on and reproduce as Blu-ray compliant off-line disks.

The HDV.M2T mpeg2video part is itself BD-video compliant and can be copied without re-encoding, while the MP2 audio part has to be transcoded to LPCM in my case. I have used FFmpeg to prepare these as BD-compliant MTS files that can be loaded as input to tsMuxer GUI to create output Blu-ray ISO.

Adding one single MTS input file to tsMuxeR GUI makes compliant output Blu-ray ISO. The burned Blu-ray video disk does playback fine with working video and audio by a standalone Blu-ray player device.

The problem arise when adding two or more MTS files to each iso and disk. Each HDV video file is 13GB/hour, so a 50GB BD-R DL disk is spacious for three + files or duration hours. The Blu-ray video player device manages here to access only the video part of the first added MTS file and no Audio is found.

The problem as I have figured out using ffplay and VLC on Linux (and as visualized by the tsMuxeR GUI), is seemingly that three MTS files are spread out on 3 video tracks and on 3 additional audio tracks, without menu pointers for navigation/access by a standalone BD player.

On the other hand, Adding the first MTS input file and Join the second and third file, makes a single, monolithic 39GB large file that is BD-compliant, but it is not what I want for practical use.

So hopefully someone here can help me and clarify how to access each of more added MTS files to get compliant Blu-ray ISO and disks?

Thanks,
