[QUOTE="nhm, post: 1267691, member: 164791"] Dear Lehmden - Well I was stunned into silence by all that info!! You certainly have an amazing collection at your disposal beside which my 1200 or so films and a similar volume of TV pales into insignificance... Having said that I'm not sure if I'm yet ready to set about re-coding my whole back catalogue which on your rough estimate would probably take at least 40 days running 24/7. Storage space is now cheap and I still have plenty. So what I would ideally like to be able to do is take the .xml and .ts files produced by MP2 and simply combine the metadata, video and audio streams into a single .mkv (or .mp4) container without resorting to any re-coding. Can your Media-Buddy be profiled to do that when pointed at an edited file, or is there another tool which might? A few issues I've noted in looking into this are that I would probably have to switch to VLC for playback of .mkv's since WMP seems to have some issues, and similarly Windows Explorer seemingly can't read and edit the metadata fields in them. I also have some uncertainty whether TVDB will have all the program descriptions for TV I might record, which is why it seems better if possible to use the data from the EPG already held in the .xml rather than ignore it??
