BDedit - BD structure edit

[Akrambby]

Hey everyone,

New user here. I’ve gone through a fair amount of the forum and tried several approaches based on existing threads, but I’m still stuck and would appreciate confirmation on whether my overall approach is fundamentally flawed or just missing a key step.

I have a fully functional Blu-ray disc authored in Adobe Encore (BDMV 2.00) that I’ve used for many years without issues. A native 4K HDR version of the main feature has since been released, and my goal is to keep the disc structure identical (menus, navigation, extras, etc.) while replacing only the main feature video with a UHD HDR version.

My most recent attempt was as follows:
- I used tsMuxeR (Blu-ray output mode) to generate a UHD-compliant M2TS + CLPI + MPLS for the main feature.
- I replaced the corresponding Encore-generated M2TS/CLPI/MPLS files with the tsMuxeR ones (matching file names).
- I then used BDEdit to update the disc from BDMV 2.00 → 3.00, verified stream types, and added UHD / HDR presence in the extension data.
- Finally, I rebuilt the ISO using ImgBurn.

When checking the resulting ISO with BDInfo, the disc and label are detected, but no video streams are listed.
Prior to this, I also tried:
- Replacing only the M2TS files
- Manually editing STN tables and applying changes to the CLPI
Both approaches failed in similar ways.

At this point, I’m trying to determine whether:
Adobe Encore-authored Blu-ray structures can be adapted into a valid UHD-BD at all (even with UHD-compliant streams), or
Whether my replacement / metadata steps are incomplete or incorrect.
To be clear: the original Blu-ray structure is confirmed valid and parses correctly in BDInfo, and I’m currently testing only with a single feature stream to keep things minimal.

One additional question (possibly unrelated):
I’ve noticed that several MPLS files appear to reference a delayed start (~10 minutes offset). Is this expected behavior, or does it indicate incorrect playlist timing that must be manually corrected?

Any insight—especially from those experienced with UHD-BD authoring or tsMuxeR-based workflows—would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance and happy to share whatever would be deemed useful to get the answer to this.

Hi Akrambby
You seem to have done everything right. I've converted blu-ray discs to UHD many times.
I open the original playlist from blurey in tsMuxeR and replace only the video stream, and everything works.
But I have not dealt with blu-ray discs made in Adobe Encore Conversion.
I can check your disk. Send me all the files, without the movie, I'll replace it with some of my own.

Ok I sent it, thank you very much.

If the names of the MT2S files were changed, did you also open the MPLS file and change the name?

BDinfo displays a pop-up message "Call from invalid thread" and no information is shown after clicking "Apply to clpi" and "Save clpi" in bdedit .58b12. Is there a way to fix this problem?

@lowpro What is the latest with your project?

Hello everyone.
I'm posting this here because Taurusus told me that users like Ocean in this thread are very knowledgeable about this topic, and I would appreciate your help with this problem.
I added a second audio track and a subtitle track to a Blu-ray disc that only had one audio track.
I forced the subtitle track so that the Blu-ray would start with the original audio and the added subtitles.
The problem arises when trying to change the audio and/or disable the subtitles with the remote control. I can't do it with the (audio-subtitles) button or in the settings; the following message appears: "Operation currently prohibited for this disc."

I tried using KITE, user operations on the MLPS file for each of the two movies, enabling the options: "Change PGtextST sequence number" and "Turn PGtextST on/off" to activate and deactivate the subtitles.

To change the added audio, I enabled "Enable/Disable Secondary Audio" and "Change Secondary Audio Sequence Number."

But the message keeps appearing every time I try to make any changes. This Blu-ray disc doesn't have a pop menu, and this message only appears with a physical disc. If I test it on my PC, everything works fine.

Do not force that sub, instead make it default.

Hello.
I'm closing my question because, with Ocean's help, I was able to solve the error the player was showing when I tried to change the audio and turn subtitles on or off.

Thanks to Ocean, Taurusus, and Emulgator for being there.
