[MEncoder-users] parsing m2ts files

[James Hastings-Trew]

Because of the decoder errors I encountered with m2ts files containing 
h264 video streams (noted previously) I updated my mplayer and mencoder 
to the latest versions. Unfortunately, the problem remains. Because of 
this, I'm having to decode the video with an AviSynth script rather than 
directly. Is there a problem with mplayer/mencoder's h264 decoder that 
is not shared by the DirectShow decoder (default or ffdshow), because 
when I use either of those decoders, all of the visual errors (smearing, 
coloured macroblocks) vanish. AviSynth handling  is definitely not a 
cross-platform solution, and is quite a bit slower than being able to 
directly read the files.
