Guys I have been struggling for the last two months trying to edit my overly large HD TS. files in MediaPortal down to a reasonable size and in a simple ad easy manner. I have tried everything that was in these forums but to no avail. None of the TS conversion packages work for me and I couldn't be bothered searching through every single post to work it out.
So I thought I share a simple easy process I just discovered to convert these files - for free with excellent results. .
I am using two programs
1. Quick Media Converter (to convert the file to AVI.
2. AVIDEMUX - (to edit out the commercials)
Quick Media Converter
Step 1. 1st I download QuickMediaConverter from here -> http://www.cocoonsoftware.com/download/Install-Hd-4-0-0-8.zip
Step 2. Once installed I go to EXPERT MODE and "ADD FILES TO CONVERT"
Step 3. Then I select "Load Profiles" and choose the a profile of my liking (for me XVID, AC3)
Step 4. Then I hit "START CONVERSION" - (took me about 15 mins per Hour of video)
AVIDEMUX
Step 5. Download AVIDEMUX from here --> Download avidemux from SourceForge.net
Step 6. Once installed open up a file. Use your "MARKERS" (A & B and "Cut from edit menu") to edit out the commercials (NO NEED TO CHANGE ANY OTHER SETTINGS)
Then when your happy (As I am right now)
Step 7. Go to File --> "ADD to JOBLIST"
then ---> File --> VIEW JOBLIST
Step 8. Click "RUN ALL JOBS" and Bob's your uncle
All software is free and open source.
Would love to see this simple process integrated into Mediaportal.
GOOD LUCK PURPS
