I got Serenity on BluRay over the holidays so I finally broke down and bought a Plextor BD PX-B310U USB optical drive. I was able to successfully use the BluRay module to rip the disc to my hard drive and I can convert the resulting m2ts file to a normal resolution (640x274 - which seems to get selected by default most of the time) wmv for streaming to my XBox, but I'm having issues with the full resolution version (1904x822, 1840x790, and maybe a few others I've spot checked) - Windows closes it after a few seconds (I got 0.23% in after 36s the last time around). The net result is an apparently valid wmv file of the appropriate resolution according to the metadata but no content.
Some relevant information:
Running on an HP G60-535DX
Plextor BD PX-B310U external optical drive
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
DVDFab 6.2.1.8 (and 6.2.0.5)
I rip the main movie (with two chapters listed) which yields a single m2ts file (00333.m2ts), I've tried ripping all the audio, just the English, with and without the "Remove HD Audio" checkbox checked (the only English audio tracks are HD or commentary), and I'm converting to the default xbox360.wmv.wma10 profile with a fixed video bitrate of 1687kbps (but I also tried 5000kbps) and a 128kbps 5.1 audio format.
The original BD rip worked fine and the file plays under Windows, but there is no log entry for the File2Mobile conversion nor do I see one for the rip completion:
Hopefully this is enough to go on, I'm just happy I could get the BD decrypted and converted to a format I could play on my 360 even if it's not the HD version. I may need to take another look at what other profiles now support 5.1 sound (which I view as more important than resolution anyway) on the 360 played through PlayOn's DLNA server. Sadly, m2ts is not one of them and even if it was the 360 seems to want to buffer a lot even when hardwire connected to the server (granted, with a router and a switch in the way, but still...)
