Try tsremux and uncheck bypass audio alingment does that work ? sounds like you are getting the same problem as me (black screen no sound) :)

[spida_singh]

I'm using the latest 2.20 firmware and remuxed Rambo First Blood MKV with DTS-ES and @5.1 1280x544 to M2TS and it played perfectly (at least the video) in my PS3 under the XMB.

Tested with Terminator 2 same profile and audio and video was perfect.

Tested with Terminator 1 same video profile and AC3 audio and both audio and video perfect.

With other remuxes of those sources I wasn't able to have any video at all under my XMB.
Building a bluray structure to test with my PS3 now. Will post here later.

It will be great if 5.1 is supported under AVCHD disc. We could have subtitles after pelican add suport for 544p and other custom resolutions for his tool SUPread that converts SRT to SUP

When you say Terminator 2 with same profile worked ok, was this also a 1280x544 @5.1 profile dts mkv remuxed into an M2TS without 4.1 profile change? Did audio and video work streamed, or from the internal hdd?

Not sure exactly what you want, I use tsMuxer to populate the 2-3-4-5-6 directories one at a time with the videos that I want to be the 2nd title then 3rd title etc., then use a batch file to copy and rename the streams, playlist and clipinf into the “1” directories, then burn the contents of the 1 directory.
I have also used movie factory 6/w bluray to create the menus.
I don’t know enough about the structure of the menu, playlist or clipinf files to create them from scratch so I use one of these programs to create the files for me. If you know of another program for menu creation that also creates the playlist and clipinf files I’m sure it would also work.
Don't bother yourself anymore, I got them by other way. Thanks for the idea! Will spend weekend trying...

The T2 was @5.1 1280x688 with DTS.
The video plays but XMB doesn't play DTS.

I remuxed only the sample from the movies and put them in a 2GB SD card.

Remux only not reencode or profile change. The profile kept @5.1 and tsmuxer id it as 5.1

Thanks, all i want next in a fw update is the ability for the ps3 to accept dts audio in a vob or m2ts container. Time will tell, thanks for reply.

I had a problem with Casino HD-DVD with both ripped onto the hard drive and direct from the disk. I was using v1.63 (same with V1.61), after 86.3% through, I got the message tsmuxer must end (send details etc). I also tried he output from evodemux with the same result.

update: i tried v1.65, but that detected the stream as 30000/1001 (not 24000/1001 like the earlier versions). it failled after 3.6%.

update. i got it through 100% now. evodemux (0.627), vc1conv (0.3), tsmuxer (1.63). very long winded, I've never had to do that before - always tsmuxer handled everything. i've yet to see the result on the tvix 6500a yet.

Any ideas. Thanks. Mike.

[mrr19121970]

I also had a problem with cars 'seamless branching' playing on the tvix 6500a. The playback after creating ts or m2ts with tsmuxer (1.63) would play fine on the ps3 or pc with powerdvd. however the playback would stick/jump at the seams on the tvix 6500a.

Now i just tried demuxing the video/audio with tsmuxer (1.63), running through h264info (22 alpha) and then muxing the new video and original audio with tsmuxer (1.63) and the result plays perfectly in the tvix.

does this mean there is a bug in tsmuxer ?

So you figured out a way thats cool, there must be a bug in tsmuxer then, hope it can be worked out.I have the tvix 4100 and have the same problems with joined files.

[radius]

Hiya,

in case it has not been discussed before, i'm facing a problem with subtitles timings when concatenating files, I wanted to encode the simpsons movie bluray (it's splitted in 6 files) with french 'forced' subtitles so I created 1 big file using tsremux, the problem is when I demux the sup streams then use 'em in supread, the time is reset on each of the 6 parts of the movie :/
the only way i found to counter this is to assign each srt (from each sup) to its movie part then concatenate in avisynth but 1 correct sup / srt would be better :)

PS: there's an error with the concatenated 'forced' sup I get and supread, while the normal full lenght subtitles work (except for the time problem), but it may be a supread bug as well

Thanks your great work :)

[guru1968]

Hi,

tsMuxeR, latest version (as of writing 1.6.3) has problems demuxxing certain subtitles!

It does not complain at all, but the exported sup-files don't work! - e.g. SUPread and suprip won't work with those!

- this definitely is a tsMuxer issue, SUPs exported by xportpgs (from the very same m2ts) do work very well...

greetz,
guru

[roman76r]

New version 1.7.1(b) is ready.

- Bug fixed: Now pulldown info correctly processed.
- Ability to remove pulldown info from stream added. All video codecs are supported: H.264, VC-1, MPEG2.
- Some small bug fixes and improvements. Also tsMuxeR package size is decreased and dependings to other libraries have been removed.

[Atak_Snajpera]

any progress with srt subtitles ? :)

[SeeMoreDigital]

Would it be possible to add/amend the PAR of an AVC video stream?

[roman76r]

While not. I have decide to implement pulldown support before .srt.

What is it? Picture aspect ratio?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Ok Roman! I can wait :)

[survivant001]

roman76r

did you fix the problem with the splitting option int he bluray ? We obtain invalid disc (on the PS3) when the movie reach the end of the first part of the movie

[XolocoTuxmaster]

roman76r, I can port the GUI to linux.

If you want to send me the code by email, this is mine:

xolocotuxmaster[at]gmail[dot]com

[SeeMoreDigital]

What is it? Picture aspect ratio?Yes...

For those re-muxing MKV sources it would be most useful, as the PAR signalling is often removed from the stream and placed within the container.


Cheers

While not. Can you create 2 identical releases in sonic scenarist and tsMuxeR? And make sure what release from sonic is work on PS3. When I'll can compare releases.

[gav1577]

@roman have you had a chance to take a look at my samples i uploaded yet? i still am getting a black screen and no sound with all my 1080 files when creating bluray structure/avchd dvd regardless of what format they are in even original files straight from bluray without encoding give the same result. this is very odd as all my files will play on my pc and if streamed to the ps3 and also from ext usb. btw all files will play in avchd dvd/bluray structure if created by
tsremux any ideas :confused:

ps this problem is apparent also with latest Version 1.7.1(b)

[roman76r]

Try to remux file into tsRemuxer.

Thats what i have been doing just wanted to know you were aware of the issue and wanted confirmation that its not just me who is getting this problem i uploaded some samples but nobody has yet confirmed i guess it just my ps3 then as i seem to be the only one to be experiencing the black screen no sound problem

thanks

[Ryu77]

What is it? Picture aspect ratio?

Pixel Aspect Ratio



Edit: My bad... I just realised this was already answered. Isn't PAR the acronym for Pixel Aspect Ratio not Picture Aspect Ratio? I thought AR meant the Aspect Ratio, which is what the player uses to determine the picture AR.

Am I misunderstanding this? :confused:

[Quatre]

maybe tsMuxeR could auto update (like mkv2vob) or better yet give the option to update within the prog instead of having to dl the new option and then uninstall/delete the old.

@Roman. Thanks for the good work. Please keep it up.

I tried Cars (all regions with 28 files) with V1.71, and can confirm that tsmxuer still doesn't join the files together the same way as demuxing, running through h264info and remuxing. there is still the bump at the seams, judder, audio out of sync followed by a frozen image when played back on the tvix 6500a.

Update: I also retried Charlie & The Chocolate factory HD-DVD. It went through all the way to the end, but I got several E-AC3 Out of sync messages (which I didn't get using EvoDemuxer, VC!CONV & tsmuxer. The same for Bourne Supremacy HD-DVD, but this time it failled 63.1% through, with the 'encountered a problem and needs to close' message fo Offset 00044d1d.

Thank you for this muxer !

I still have a question :

Will it be possible later to mux dvb-sub subtitles in a ts stream ?

(It's the only way for me to read subtitled HD movies from my "freebox")

[roman76r]

Yes. I have started to improve subtitles support in tsMuxR.
I plan the following:
1. Add .srt subtitles support and ability to convert srt to PGS
2. Add dvd subtitles support and ability to convert srt to SUB.
3. Ability to convert SUB to PGS
4. Add HD-DVD subtitles, ability to convert HD-DVD subtitles to DVD SUB or PGS.
5. Add other txt based subtitles

Yes PLEASE!!! I am so looking forward to this. I have a whole Army of people on AfterDawn that I continually help with PS3 video files. I recommend tsMuxeR to be used on almost every occasion.

Please hurry on this! I give you full permission to stay awake for the next 48 hours until this is created! Where would you like the 1kg jar of Coffee shipped to? Hehe... :)

#6 - multi-titles (like for anime)
#7 - menus
a) (1 by movie, )
b) for chapters with a picture of the first frame of the chapter )
c) for audio track
d) for subtitle ON/OFF


what do you think ?

[Atak_Snajpera]

#6 - multi-title (like for anime)
#7 - menu
a) (1 by movie, )
b) for chapters with a picture of the first frame of the chapter )
c) for audio track
d) for subtitle ON/OFF
I would vote only for simple menu (sciptable menu) without b c (Audio can be switched on/off during playback) and d (subtitles can be switched on/off during playback)

[ExSport]

Great work Roman, great prog and support:thanks:
Now tried Planet Earth HD-DVD and after removing pulldown stream is detected as interlaced.
It is possible to do same kind of work as VC1CONV does?
When I import VC-1 raw stream from VC1CONV, your prog detect it correctly as 1920x1080p, 23.976.
Thanks

simple menu at first.. but can add the feature for the others menus. Everything can be configurable.

example
if you pass the command -menu-audio it will create the audio menu, ..

Yes. tsMuxeR remove pulldown marks only, It does not try to convert interlaced video to progresive. why converting to progressive mode is necessary? It does not improve visual quality.

Well, the reason for that is simple.....My Popcornhour box stutters If I want to play the movie in 24p as long as it is interleaced.

By using vc1conv I can play every HD-DVD smooth in 24p! That is the reason and I thought your removing pulldown button does the same as vc1conv.

As far as I know VC1conv doesn't convert anything it changes the header....

Thats correct, VC1conv only changes the header.

[roman76r]

VC1conv does 2 actions:
-Removal pulldown marks.
-сhange frames header type from interlaced to progressive.

OK. I'll add second action in the future version.
