[mythtv-users] HD-PVR burn to blu-ray without transcode?

[Paul Check]

Thx Andre and William. I have tried Premiere Pro/Encore and have yet to figure out if its possible with those programs to avoid transcoding.   So far not.  The mythtv wiki pages states that the stream is a "slightly modified mpeg 2 transport stream".  Since m2ts is part of the blu-ray spec I was hopeful this would work, but so far it seems transcoding is necessary.  P

The authoring software I use will author 720p AC-3 files straight from the HD-PVR but not 1080i files. However, I cannot definitively say whether the authoring software is too picky or whether the HD-PVR files are non-standard. Or both.
