How to make Blu-ray .m2ts streams available for your PC and portable devices

Filed under: Youtube Video Converter — admin @ 7:21 pm

To enable Blu-ray .m2ts streams to be available for playback on a PC or some popular portable multimedia players like iPod, iPhone, PSP, etc., the way of Windows users is to make use of AnyDVD HD to remove Blu-ray copyright protections as well as the region codes in the first step, and then have access to an M2TS converter to do format conversion in the second step. Apart from this method, another way is also practical, that is taking advantage of a Blu-ray ripper directly to complete this process once and for all. Since not everybody is clearly about the two ways, also because I have enough spare time currently, I will present the two solutions in a detailed way in this post, and hope it would be of some help for you guys who are hunting for this info.

Solution 1: with the help of AnyDVD HD and an M2TS Converter

Insert your Blu-ray disc to the BD drive, and run AnyDVD HD to remove copyright protections and region codes of your disc, no matter what kinds of protections your BD discs adopted, BD+, or AACS, AnyDVD HD is capable of dealing with them. Then you will get unprotected.m2ts files after the access of AnyDVD HD.

If you just want to watch the .m2ts files on your PC, you can use VLC media player, KMPlayer, or whatever to open these files for playback. If you need import them to your portable devices for playing, you should go on with the following step to do format conversion. Additionally, according to my own experience, VLC and KMPlayer sometimes are choppy while playing .m2ts files, suppose you want to watch them smoothly, format conversion is also recommended.

2. Convert .m2ts files to your wanted format (fit for your media players or portable devices)

In this step, Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter will fully perform its functionality.

Video – AVI (Xvid, AVC, MPEG1/2/4), MPG/MPEG, VOB, MKV (h.264, x.264, AVC, MPEG1/2/4, VC-1), TS/TP/M2T (MPEG1/2/4, AVC, VC-1), MP4/MOV (MPEG4, h.264), M2TS, WMV9

How to play Blu-ray ISO backups on WD TV Live

Filed under: Youtube Video Converter — admin @ 7:19 pm

bluraycopytheme100119.jpg

To play Blu-ray ISO backups on your WD TV Live, one thing you should know is that WD TV Live can well play ISO files from a USB drive, while network shares do have problems actually.

In order to get an ISO backup, what’s your workflow? As all I know, some people use tsMuxeR to back up the Blu-ray disc, and then converted it into an ISO using Daemon Tools. Personally, I use Pavtube Blu-ray Copy to make ISO backups for my Blu-ray discs.

Within several clicks, this program can finish its task, and enables you to get an ISO image file. What you should do is just loading your BD files via “Source” option, and then choose “Image File (*.ISO)” from the pull down menu of “Target” to specify the destination folder. BTW, you’d better indicate your USB drive as the save path, or you need spend time to copy the ISO image to your USB drive repeatedly. Once the two steps finished, the backup process will begin, and then you just need wait for the resulted ISO files for your WD TV Live.

bluraycopy100119.jpg

As long as copying task is completed, plug the USB into your WD TV, and connect it to your HDTV via HDMI cable, what you should do next is enjoying your BD movies on your widescreen TV leisurely.

One more thing I should mention is that some users have problems to play Blu-ray ISO files via their WD TV, but DVD ISO is working well. Not clear about the accurate reason, but another solution can be recommended. Since WD TV is able to beautifully playback HD MKV files up to Full HD 1080p, thus we just need a utility to convert BD files to HD MKV, and then everything will be OK. Because of the Blu-ray copyright issues, some discs are highly protected, we must take advantage of a powerful application to do so. In that case, the following Blu-ray ripper is suggested, it is able to remove nearly all kinds of BD protections, including BD+, AACS, and even MKB Version > 10 is supported as well.

This Blu-ray ripper allows users exporting “MKV HD Video (*.mkv)” format, and also enables users to reset audio and video parameters via clicking “Settings” button. You can set the resolution at 1920*1080 to remain 1080p quality of your Blu-ray movies, as well as keep 5.1 channel of the original surround sound. All in all, all the parameters like bit rate, codec name, frame rate, sample rate are all changeable in the following interface.

bluraycopymkv100119.jpg

After your preferred settings for your WD TV have been set well, just click “Convert” button to start conversion. Once finished, you can watch them on your TV via WD TV with ease, and the high quality of the Blu-ray movie has never been changed at all.

Is this helpful? Hope it is.

Not an easy thing for Mac users to play back Blu-ray movies, even they are your personal purchasing. I’ve summarized three ways that Mac users have usually used to playback Blu-ray movies as following.

Both WD TV Live HD Media Player and WD TV HD Media Player are all workable with .m2ts files, and they also support Full HD resolutions up to 1080P in common. In order to reserve the HD audio and video quality of your BD movie, you can completely select “Copy”> “Directly Copy” to just get the .m2ts files as the original as long as your USB device has enough space to store the output files. If not, you can also consider converting BD to a HD video format to save space as well as keep HD quality of the source file.
