Edit .wtv H264 recordings


The scheduling of the recordings from the EPG in media center is great and does work very well, however we all know that there is always adds on before and after the movie within the recording window.

It took a while to figure this one out. I wanted to be able to convert the .wtv recordings into a editable format. there are many tools out there, but all were failing for me with the .wtv format.

This is because the video recorded is encoded with H264 codec. For now these will have to be converted to another format like .ts for example. the tool i am using is VideoReDo

use the batch tool - select all your .wtv's and add them to a batch job, I saved my coverts to .ts

these .ts files then can be open in VideoReDo and you can very easily trim out the adds, and add to another batch job. repeat process for all movies and run the batch.

  1. Could you please elaborate on the conversion process. You have had success using VideoRedo to convert the H264 .wtv file into a .ts file? Am I reading that correctly?
