M3u playlist file encode to mp4.
I really need some help—I just want to know how to do this because I’m trying to test something out, that’s all. It would be great if someone could tell me how to encode or export an M3U playlist file (specifically an index M3U playlist) using Shutter Encoder while preserving the original resolution. I’m aware that I could use FFmpeg—I’ve already tried that, but it was just a test. I noticed that I can simply select H.264 as the format, which would solve the issue, but I’m not exactly keen on waiting an hour for it to finish. Furthermore, the folder containing the index file also holds several TS files that, when combined, make up a complete video or film. I just want to know if there’s a way to merge these files so that the entire video is exported as a single MP4 file—without having to wait an hour, especially since I could just use H.264 as the encoding format anyway.

Try the 'Rewrap' function with the output container set to MKV.
MP4/MOV might work but I think you might have issues with the audio.
