Thanks for your tip.
The size of the streams match. I totally forgot that transport streams need
extra overhead since on Blu-Rays you can always seek to the beginning/end
to get all the needed meta information, so technically it could imho also
work without a transport stream but I guess they had a valid reason to use
these when defining the Blu-Ray standard.
