[QUOTE="VdR, post: 400884, member: 25818"] UPDATE I'm still experimenting and also tried MCEBuddy now. First of all I'm coming to the same conclusion as Paranoid Delusion, probably h.264 (MPEG-4) is the way to go. AVIdemux is the most versatile editor but it has two important shortcomings; it can't properly read a .TS file (will cause a A/V shift) and it can't create an output file larger than 2 GB. The workaround for the first shortcoming is to use a demuxer to split the .TS file into a video and audio stream first. This can be done with ProjectX, but also MPEG Streamclip does this job. The latter is easier to install and has a better user interface. The workaround for the second shortcoming is to go to MPEG-4 encoding, then even a full length movie is less than 2 GB. AVIdemux has some very interesting options including adding sub-titles. But MPEG Streamclip can trim (pre- and post-recording), cut (commercials), crop, and do the MPEG-4 encoding, so for most jobs there is no need for AVIdemux at all. VdR [/QUOTE]
