Hi, good morning to all LYN members. I need some advice from u all regarding playback of movie files with .TS extension.

Currently i manage to use cyberlink powerdvd deluxe 7 version to play the file. But i encounter some problem, i can't control the time bar. Everytime i try to skip forward to other chapter of the movie, it just hang. only the player hang but not the computer.

Anyone using the same software encounter the same problem when playing .TS file?? (only .TS file will encounter this prob)

Anyone manage to solve the prob?

And besides cyberlink powerdvd, any other software that can playback .TS movies with hardware acceleration support?

Thanks a bundle 1st, really need u guys help...

thanks for ur reply

the .TS file i have are able to be played with the haali media splitter + ffdshow u were talking about. but i try not to use that coz it consume my processing power up to 50%. Since i have an ati card with UVD, i was hoping to use a software that can utilize the hardware acceleration without adding burden to my processor.

I have tried cyberlink powerdvd, it manage to playback the .TS file but with 1 flaw, u can't control the timing of ur movie. everytime i try to fast forward the time, it hangs. Im still not sure it is bcoz of the incompatibility of the file with the player, but when the .TS is played with haali media splitter + ffdshow, controlling of the time wasn't an issue.

Maybe i will try out nero showtime or intervideo winDVD once i got the chance. Hope it will solve my prob. thanks alot for ur suggestion

The codec enclosed in the .TS file is AVC (H264). And the file itself enclosed with 2 audio codec. One is AC3 & another is AC3+.
I have tried demux one of the audio codec out from the .TS file n tried. But it still hangs when either one of the audio codec is seperated out.
The only time it is working perfectly is when i seperated the video out (means without any audio in it).

So i conclude that the problem relates to the audio codec being used.

I have found that the 2 audio codec used is: English-(DDplus 5.1 1536K), (DD51 448K).

It does play smoothly if i dun forward the time, but hangs when i did (except when only video is playback without audio).

Im using TSremux to do all the remultiplexing and demultiplexing. Will search for the media player classic home cinema to give it a try.
Thanks for the suggestion
