Hi!
I have been working on this for the past week or so but I can't seem to get this to work. I'm obviously doing something wrong. I'm trying to convert a .TS and a .MKV files that would play on my Playstation 3, both are FullHD files. The .MKV is not that important as I can do the convertation on Windows, by the way I'm using a Mac.
When I convert the file using HandBrake it works on my Mac but not on the PS3, where it just says that the file format is not supported or something similar. Is there a general settings for PS3 - one that would work? I search and tried a bunch with no luck. This is really starting to frustrate me, I trully hope someone could help.
THANKS!
PS. I read the FAQ.

Use the PS3 preset.
Throw it out the window. It'll make you feel better. It's a really poor media playback device.This is really starting to frustrate me

The PS3 preset seems to suck big time so it's not helping and I'm not going to throw it anywhere as I like it.s55 wrote:Use the PS3 preset.

Re: How to properly convert files for the PS3
I think the ts files should work on the playstation 3 directly, at least my .m2ts files work.
Otherwise for the mkv's, if they have h.264 / ac3, you can put them through tsMuxer and mux then as .m2ts which will work on the PS3.

Thanks! I shall try this asap.
Re: How to properly convert files for the PS3
Thanks for the tsMuxer hint! That works and converts .MKV files for the PS3 but the .TS file still doesn't want to play ball with me. Maybe I just forget about it. Hieno homma, paljon kiitoksia!
Re: How to properly convert files for the PS3
I have to agree. This is a device that can playback Blu-ray discs, yet the DVD conversions I'm getting with Handbrake (latest version + latest version of VLC -- on Leopard) are very "banded". I'm not sure what the technical term would be, but it's like watching through tiny venetian blinds. Almost like you get one line of picture, one (thin) line of black, another line of picture, etc.The PS3 preset seems to suck big time so it's not helping
Is there a "best practice" to get a decent output for the PS3? The preset doesn't seem quite right.
Thanks!
