Why do you want to transcode a blu ray? Any kind of transcoding (that saves space) will reduce picture quality. Isn't one of the reasons to buy Blu Ray or HD-DVD to have the best picture quality available? With disk space getting so cheap these days (about 24€ct a Gig), I don't see a need to sacrifice picture quality at all.

Well, watching a DVD on  a (fairly) large screen really shows differences between a DVD rip on a regular single layer DVD disk, and the original. I want the best possible picture quality while watching a movie in my home theater. Watching on a regular TV set does not show much difference, but once to you go into larger sized screens you see a difference. And it annoys the hell out of me.

So, by going down from 3-8GB of data to a 4GB movie, I save about 1€. I am willing to pay this price to get the best quality possible.

YMMV.

When you have a few hundred movies like I do, and you want to put them all on disk, you are willing to give up a little quality in order to save a lot of space.  Going from mpeg2/ac3 vob files to H.264/aac mp4 files gives me about a 5 to 1 compression at my current settings.  The difference in visual quality on my crappy ancient 43" rear projection 480p HDTV is close to zero, although if I had a better TV I'm sure I'd notice and may even be unhappy.  I have a 500G drive and with my previous settings as well as some straight vob rips I ran out of room.  After the unconverted movies started to stack up I started reconverting to this new setting (it was divx/ac3 copies/avi).  As I mentioned, I'm spoiled with having a library of movies I can grab a remote and flip through and just kick off a movie instead of hunting for the movie I want to watch or flipping through a book of DVDs trying to decide what I'm in the mood for.

Blu-ray will be a much bigger challenge, it's already in H.264 so I will not be converting to a much more efficient codec.  I will also be transcoding with a new 60"+ flat panel HDTV in mind.  However, at 30G per movie, I'd be looking at just over 30 movies per TB of storage, and that just doesn't work out very well.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe BR movies are at roughly 25Mbit/s, and OTA/Cable are commonly between 10Mbit/s and 15Mbit/s.  There are a lot of movies where perfect video isn't that important and something like 10Mbit/s would be just fine for.  Other movies where video is more important could be dropped down to the 15Mbit/s range, still as good as HD cable/OTA but less space.  Until I get a 1080p hdtv and start testing I won't know for sure, but I envision being able to drop the total space to around 15G per movie, have much better quality than current non-transcoded DVD movies, and be satisfied with the results.

Movies that are not in Myth (soon to be linuxMCE) stack up on my desk waiting to be ripped, they just don't get watched.  In the end, the ability to transcode BR movies is a requirement for me making the switch from DVDs.  It's really too bad the big companies don't get this.  If it were not for all the protections they waste tons of money on that will soon be useless I'd have already bought a BR drive and be buying BR movies.

So I have finally fixed the scripts so that it rips the BluRay disc. Hooray

I now have a directory with about 20-30mb depending on the movie.


Now the easy part- Watching them right???



Wrong they don't play when selecting them from the video list. :'(
the files are in m2ts format.

I thought linuxmce was suppose to support blu-ray

Mplayer just starts and I get a black screen the time progress indicator stays at 00:00

Thoughts anyone???  what logs to check etc.

Boy this is frustrating when I thought I could pop in a Bluray-drive and just use it.

Am I the only one with a BD drive.           Bleeding edge again.............................

somehow i think you have not decrypted the disc.

Thanks for the reply Hari

that would make sense
But
I am hoping this shows that linuxmce (dumphd .04)  is decrypting it.

Pertinent sections of log:

1.     Prior to mods of scripts the keys would be empty

Not sure if the keydb.cfg entry is complete for the Title does not match.
Thought I read somewhere that mplayer needs the key to play maybe it can not find it

thanks for the help.


Thinking I might try the latest svn of mplayer.

Hmm.. that's really weird. Can you try to run it using mplayer from /opt/pluto-mplayer/bin ? (there goes the pluto version of mplayer)? Just try to play it from the KDE desktop, start the console and run: /opt/pluto-mplayer/bin/mplayer /file/to/play.m2ts  -- and please post here the log. Chances are this is mplayer-side issue as the m2ts is relatively new and sometimes not supported.

Kir, thanks for the reply

I read somwhere if the keys are incorrect you get a black screen  (which I am getting)
searching bluray keys on internet yields different ones than the ones produced by aasckeys
dont know if that helps but-------------





here is the output from mplayer

As Hari said earlier about not decrypting the disc.

I looks like maybe its missing something or decrypting incorrectly??

Output below is directly from the dumhd gui directly.

again my keys dont seem to match the ones I found by searching google.
Maybe its my liteon DH401s player ??

Does anyone have a decrypted m2ts file that I can try to test to see if it is a player or ripping issue.

I'm getting another drive in the next few days. As soon as things progress I will let you know.

Well, watching a DVD on  a (fairly) large screen really shows differences between a DVD rip on a regular single layer DVD disk, and the original. I want the best possible picture quality while watching a movie in my home theater. Watching on a regular TV set does not show much difference, but once to you go into larger sized screens you see a difference. And it annoys the hell out of me.

So, by going down from 3-8GB of data to a 4GB movie, I save about 1€. I am willing to pay this price to get the best quality possible.

YMMV.

Interesting point... but talking about regular DVDs not HDDVD or BluRay... standard DVDs use an old and now inferior compression technique, MPEG2. MPEG4 part 10, otherwise known as H.264 is much much more efficient and so in theory you should be able to transcode a DVD to h.264 with almost no loss of quality (there will be some due to the original loss of data; rendering back to full screen with a little loss of data; then recompression to h.264 - which unfortunately will toss out different data to the orginal compression)...

but with MPEG4 part 10 being around 50% more efficient I am very interested in techniques to transcode ripped DVDs to h264. I can't see how to do it within LinuxMCE currently.

Thanks

As far as I know, there is no way to do this within LinuxMCE at the moment.  If you search this forum you can find a couple posts showing where the ripping code is, and you can then add any commands you want including ripping.  I was looking into this myself, considering using HandBrakeCLI after or in place of the standard rip.  The problem I ran into is the LinuxMCE rip doesn't handle copy protection very well, if at all, and HandBrakeCLI also fails with some of my DVDs.  In the end I just went back to the old fashioned method of ripping and transcoding on my linux desktop, then copying the movies to linuxMCE.  Another advantage of this method is you can test and play with forced subtitles to get the right one.  I have not found any single method to automatically get the correct forced subtitles every time.

thanks for the reply, on another topic.

I assumed that the .dvd file that the LinuxMCE system creates is an ISO image renamed to a .dvd; I haven't had much luck using it this way... is my hypothesis correct/

Thanks
