Ripping blu-ray - how to keep Video Aspect Ratio ?

Post by dosibo51 »

Hi,

when I rip a blu-ray (with my custom profile below) VC converts it (display aspect ratio) from 16:9 to 4:3 - but why?


In Video Converter 1.5.0.10 I just made my own custom profile:

---- Output container informations ----
* Name: Mpeg2-TS
* File extension: ts

---- VIDEO track informations ----
Video stream will be encoded using these settings:
* codec: mpeg2video
* framerate: Same as source (if compatible)
* width: Same as source (if compatible)
* height: Same as source (if compatible)
* aspect ratio: Same as source (if compatible)

---- AUDIO tracks informations ----
Audio streams will be encoded using these settings:
* codec: ac3
* channel count: Same as source (if compatible)
* samplerate: Same as source (if compatible)Hz

---- SUBTITLE tracks informations ----
Subtitle streams will be encoded using these settings:
* Embed in video stream


After ripping the .ts file only had 1.88 GB and is 4:3 and only 720x576:

Info read with mediainfo 0.7.71:

The film is in 16:9 format .. Widescreen (2,40:1), Letterbox , HD (1080p).

VC summary shows: "aspect ratio: Same as source (if compatible)" but the step 2 on the profile shows under video resolution "same as source" and video aspect ratio: "fit on destination".

1. Why will it be converted from 16:9, 1980x1080 to 4:3, 720x576 ?
2. What does "fit on destination" mean? I have no special "output device" (and also for this I never would change the format from 16:9 to 4:3)

Maybe when I set video aspect ratio to 16:9 it might work - but I want "same as source" - and this should be 16:9, or isn't it?

Thanks for helping.

PS: Funny - when I play the .ts file with VSO player it is 16:9 but the video only fills the widht with max 50 % of my 23" monitor. I can't get it bigger in full screen mode. Shouldn't it fill the whole monitor?

I have ripped another film - but the same data (16:9 format .. Widescreen (2,40:1), Letterbox , HD (1080p)) - with another blu-ray ripping software without special settings and I get:

When I play the video with VSO player the width is now 100 % of my monitor.

Why are you using Mpeg2-TS ?
That is for transmitting digital TV and it can contain several "channels" of video but it is designed 1995 and has a lot of restrictions.

If you really need to use transport stream then use AVCHD or Blu-Ray.

Thanks a lot for the help.

I use mpeg-2 codec because the quality is better and the ripping time is much faster. I've compared h264 and mpeg2 many times. Specially with cartoon films e.g. Ice Age 4 (which is the problem above) I see the difference on the TV.

I also record all from TV in mpeg-2-TS (using a Linux receiver) and I want to stay on one format for archiving.

I'm using Acrok Video Converter Ultimate until yet - which works brilliant as above (but crashes with DVD's, etc). Finally I would prefer VSO (as one software) - which I use for DVDs - because the settings etc is much better against Acrok. But the major no-go not to use VSO with blu-rays is this problem above.

So any other idea why VSO can not handle this simple normal ripping above as I do with Acrok by default?

Thanks!

btw:

I'm just trying AVCHD by using file format MTS (AVCHD), video codec MPEG-2 Video, video resulution "same as source", video aspect ratio is disabled.

I'm definitely no expert in this format jungle but I didn't know that AVCHD supports MPEG-2 (no info about that on German wikipedia page). Also I'm confused that video aspect ratio is disable here but possible with mpeg-2 ts container and mpeg-2 codec (which runs into the troubles as above).

Hello dosibo51,

Please, can you provide your log file of inital conversion?
Like some Blu-ray structures can store videos (often for episode/bonuses) in Mpeg-2 480p/576P, I just want to see if it's not your case.
A Blu-ray video can hold H264 1080p/720p or Mpeg-2 480p/576p...

mpeg2 with mts works correctly. Selected "same as source" where possible and got 16:9 and 1080p. VSO player works perfect with it.

I'll try to send you a log file from the mpeg with ts (not mts) as above later tonight.

1. What does "fit on destination" mean?

2. When you look at the final info (from "Save" / step 5) the text " * aspect ratio: Same as source (if compatible)" is there (instead of "fit on destination") - whatever is correct - selection and log should be 1:1.

3. When I use "mts (avhcd)" as container - the result is 16:9, 1080p - but with mpeg-2 TS container ".ts" I get 5:4 and 720x576. ???

I need the correct "mpeg-ts" against the "mts (avhcd)" container because I've just transfered the .mts file to my Linux receiver Xtrend_ET9200 - and the EMC tool can play the video but when I use the forward/backward jump (15 sec, 1 min, 5 min) then the receiver (EMC player) (latest version!) - hangs up. WIth "mpeg-ts" all works perfect.

Quick glance on mpeg2-ts shows that mpg2 16:9 is supported only anamorphic. That means that amount of pixels is same but screen is wide. Also I did not find anything about mpeg2 supporting FullHD.

Is your TV-signal FullHD - not hardware but the stream that you receive? Or is it HD?
I suspect that it is HD and anamorphic.

Hi JJ,

sorry for late reply but I was on holiday and had to re-install my PC from scratch - which has taken some time.

Please read the first entry of this thread!

When I rip a blu-ray (see first entry above!) VC converts it from1980x1080, 16:9 to 720x576, 4:3 - but why? (This happens with EVERY blu-ray - not a specific one. In this test it's an acutal action film!)

When I use "Acrok Video Converter Ultimate" I get (see results also above in the first entry!): 1920x1080, 16:9, mpeg-2, .ts

In "Acrok Video Converter Ultimate" I am doing this (see screen shots).

Select HD MPEG-ts:

[attachment=2]Acrok_1.png[/attachment]

See format settings (mpeg2video, original resolution):

[attachment=1]Acrok_2.png[/attachment]

Main track is pre-selected ... press CONVERT

[attachment=0]Acrok_3.png[/attachment]

That's it ... finally I get/got a .ts file, mpeg-2, 16:9, 1980x1080 (see mediainfo details in first entry above) from the blu-ray about 7,31 GB.

[b]How can I get the same results in Video Converter (or Blu-Ray converter - just bought it also)? What must I do - how must my profile be (and what is wrong on my profile - see first entry above)?[/b]

Thanks a lot!

One question; why are you "ripping" to transport stream? That format is designed for broadcasting TV channels.
Did you try to select any of the predefined HD settings?

Let me explain:

I started ripping videos from blu-rays last summer because my PS3 is very loud (it's the first release). I've looked how to rip the files, as mpeg-4, h.264 and mpeg-2. At the same time I'd probems with Video Converter to rip a blu-ray - didn't detect the 2nd part of a film on the blu-ray. I had to give the BR's back (no time waiting for a bug fix) and so I looked around and found & tested Acrok Video Converter.

I tested around with VSO + Acrok about the quality, size + ripping time of the formats. And on cartoon films I saw the difference that mpeg-2 is much better (I also noticed that on other films).

The Linux receiver ET8500 (like the Dreambox) are using .ts + mpeg-2 for recording from TV. No fast or powerful processors are needed (and don't really exist for the Linux receiver).

So for me the final format to which I want to rip my blu-rays is .ts + mpeg-2.

I also tested the other formats (mpeg-4, h264) on the receiver and found out that playing faster & jumping forwards & backwards hangs every time - but not with .ts + mpeg-2 (also found these problems in misc. Linux receiver forums).

I was only able to produce .ts + mpeg-2 files with Acrok without any problems. It plays everywhere. And if I want to use lower quality & less space I can convert from this to h264 and my kids can look the films on their ipad on holiday. ;-)

I tried all to generate .ts + mpeg-2 with VSO - but as you can see it doesn't work.
JJ wrote:Did you try to select any of the predefined HD settings?
Yes - then I noticed the problems above.

VSO Media Player plays the .ts + mpeg-2 videos without any problems. :-)

OK, I really tried to find a clear specification on TS but there is none available, just lot of technical documents.
Basically:
TS format was designed 1995 and allows to use video formats that were known at that time, mostly mpeg2.
DVD uses modified mpeg2 (.VOB and .IFO inside .TS folder) and BluRay uses modified mpeg2 BDAV format and extension should be m2ts when it is used.

I suspect that other program you used is producing BDAV but with .TS stream - making it non-standard. Most software players can play that anyway, but strict hardware players can not.

Totally another issue is if you convert to DVD resolutions; those resolutions support 16:9 ONLY anamorphic. Again, some software might convert to DVD resolution 16:9 without anamorphic conversion, again non-standard stream.

I'm not an expert regarding this.

I started recording from TV on Linux based receiver Xtrend_ET9200 (not ET8500 as above - however no difference - same images), like Dreambox and many others.

I just went deeper into it and looked into some .ts files recorded on my receiver from TV (all were 16:9) transfered to my PC.

ts / mpeg2 is only used for 720x576
ts /AVC (H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) is used for 1280x720 and 1920x1080

-----------------------------------------------------------

Is it possible that VSO Converter or Blu-Ray Converter can produce .ts files with AVC from blu-rays - as all the Linux receiver are doing as above (by default!)?

What I finally want is:
- no hangs during forward/backward when I look the ripped film on the TV playing from the receiver.
- "in-motion unsharpness" - in h264. mpeg-2 was much better. Please note that I did "blind" tests.
- ripping into mpeg-2 was also much faster as h264

With the "other ripping tool" by using .ts/mpeg-2/1920x1080 - all works perfect and quality is great. Ripping time is more or less 1:1.

I'll try to rip & test blu-rays again and will write back here after the test.

Thanks a lot!

Re: Ripping blu-ray - how to keep Video Aspect Ratio ?

Post by JJ »

I googled that player and it seems that it supports better formats than .ts:
  • Multimedia Player
    The variety of media file formats such as
    MP3, MP4, AVI and MKV can be played
    through built-in CODECs.
So try converting to MP4 with full resolution and copy the result to your player. Might be a lot easier and most likely saves space too!
