smartLabs tsMuxeR: Transport Stream muxer

[rica]

Hi
unfortunately, tsMuxeR does not recognize the transport-streams from Technisat's HD S2. Since TsRemux does it when renaming the ts4-file to ts (but I'd rather would use tsMuxeR), my question would be: any chance to make that happen in tsMuxeR as well?
I have several files on my computer and would be happy to provide a snippet for analysis.
Please let me know.

I have the same card, i directly save DVB-S2 h264 ts broadcast media on my HDD as is. (TS)
Those TS files work with TSMuxer.
What is ts4?
How do you record and what DVB Software are you using?

[Momber]

As I wrote before several times, when removing pulldown on VC-1 video with TsMuxer resulting blu-ray plays smooth on PC but stutters on PS3.
...but it plays smoothly on a PC only for a while, perhaps even up to an hour, then the jerkyness sets in also - in 100% of all cases I tried.

[Momber]

using this method:

EVOMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO or VC1CONV (depending on the video)
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)

I concur 100% with your recommendation, provided you mean EVOdemux (never heard of an EVOMUXER).
Another good option would be to use eac3to with eac3to_more_gui for demuxing (not for pulldown removal!), as it even allows batch processing.

TSMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)


OK, but why would you process ex-BluRay elementary streams in H264info? If they're movies, they already are properly flagged as 23.976 fps progressive.

I find if I do "BluRay-in, BluRay-out", I can do the remux directly in tsMuxeR, without demuxing or external processing. Most of the time anyway ;)

Actually, the HD S2 is a standalone Satellite Receiver. Its files on the harddisc can be downloaded via Ethernet or USB to an external harddrive and are stored as ts4-files there.

Sorry confused the names which are very similar :confused:
Can you upload a short ts4?

New version for Pcm2Tsmu (http://www.sendspace.com/file/8iy2b2).

Seems now work properly the STDOUT->STDIN with eac3to.
Remember the syntax:

eac3to input.dts stdout.pcm [eac3to_parameters] | pcm2tsmu - output_tsm.pcm [-i 16] [-c 2/4]

defaults: -i 24 -c 6

I think Yraen can include this new version in eac3to and More GUI.

Has anyone here had any success muxing AAC audio and .264 video into a TS container. For some reason, I can't get it to work correctly.
I have a .264 raw video clip which I can open OK with DGAVCDec, and play fine on my PC. I created a mp4 file containing AAC audio only, encoded using the Nero encoder via meGUI.
I opened the mp4 file in foobar and extracted the raw aac strem. I confirmed that the aac stream plays correctly in foobar. So basically, I have 2 streams which independantly play OK.

I load both files into tsMuxer and output a .ts file and all goes well. However, on playback the video is garbled. I even tried muxing the .264 video into mkv first but this didn't make any difference. Any suggestions anyone?

Cheers, Beastie.

Has anyone here had any success muxing AAC audio and .264 video into a TS container. For some reason, I can't get it to work correctly.Yes... I'm able to play such files in my hardware player, with correct channel mapping.

[Beastie Boy]

Yes... I'm able to play such files in my hardware player, with correct channel mapping.

Well, at least I now know it's possible. What were your video and audio specs, HD/SD video, VBR or CBR audio etc. Maybe I can track down which part of my streams is causing the error.
I was using 1080p video straight from HD DVD (Ironman trailer fron the Transformers disc) and VBR LC audio with an average of around 640kbps.

Cheers, Beastie.

[SeeMoreDigital]

My samples are short "speaker mapping" test files. Encoded with 1920x1080 AVC video at around 1Mbps and either 6Ch AAC-LC or AAC-HE audio.

Hi, i create a blu-ray structure with tsmuxer, my ps3 finally arrived, every works and i wacth every film in 720p with no problem. But when i create a menu with nerovision, the ps3 show a data disk not avchd, and dont open the menu or film, can anyone help me ? i test with Blu-ray player sony and the menu, film and subtitles works, but not in ps3, data disk (when i use menu create with nero, without menu works in ps3 and player)

[kmitalian]

I'm having trouble with the PCM input, i made a Multi-Channel WAVE file when i use TSmuxer.

its saying:
Warning! Multi channels WAVE file for stream 2 do not contain channels configuration info. Applying default value: L R C LFE BL BR

Now since this comes up, my channels are recorded in the wrong way, what program should i use to fix this up?

To correct a wrong channel mapped multichannel wav file you can use WaveWizard, but is better create the multichannel directly with a proper soft: eac3to, foobar2000, AviSynth methods (BeHappy, SoundOut, Wavi), etc.

The warning message say than you don't use WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header in wav file, with the ChannelMask to flag the present channels, but the order must be always L R C LFE BL BR.

How do you create the wrong mapped multichannel wav file?

[kmitalian]

I got the TrueHD track of The Matrix and i did the -blu-ray in the command line?

could that b the problem, i even used the GUI of eac3to and it still didnt make a diffrence,

what happens is the centre turns into the right or left?

[nekrosoft13]

tsmuxer can't find steams in .mts files from Canon HF10 and HF100 High-Def camcorders.

tsremux will open the files just fine, and allows me to remux them to .ts or .m2ts.

Could this function be added to tsmuxer?

i can provide samples if needed.

[claymic]

You're definitely doing something wrong, just follow the guide CLOSELY and you'll make it right.


PS3 can play DTS audio tracks from AVCHD/Blu-Ray disks.

Works now my friendy, no work in nero but work in my blu-ray player, but when i test with multiples files, works in blu-ray player but dont in ps3 ? can you help me again ?
Thanks.

I use TsMuxer for Muxing my Blu-ray rips and Change fps to 25 (Pal Speedup).
Is there an Error handling the Subtitles (PGS / SUP) ??

For example:
The Orginal-Movie has 23.976 fps and a Forced Suptitle is shown at 1:13:34.

For Muxing I changed to 25 fps and at PGS - General Track Options I select "Bind to Video FPS".

In the new muxed movie, now this Suptitle is shown at 1:16:43.
This is wrong !! The Suptitle must be shown at ~ 1:10:30.

I make something wrong or TSMuxer makes an Error in Calculating the Correct Timeposition ?!?

[asarian]

Okay, tsMuxer seems like the tool to use. But I'm really new to Bluray, so I got a few questions that may look silly to folks here (but we all gotta enter the HD world somewhere, no?).

I was experimenting with "The Fith Element" Bluray discs, one of my first. The object was to try and extract the main movie only, with just the English sound. Ok, so I went to the STREAM folder, grabbed all .ts files, and dragged them onto the tsMuxer input screen. Several .ts files tsMuxer said it couldn't recognize, though (about 3 or so). Which leads to my first question:

1): How do I know which of the .ts files in STREAM actually belong to the main movie to begin with?

And for my second question,

2): I also see a PLAYLIST folder. Can the info be extracted from there somehow?

Sorry if these sound like stupid questions. But, like I said, I'm not really all that familiar with Bluray yet.

Thanks for reading anyway.

[rica]

Hi asarian, you are welcome first of all.

You will find two folders inside the BD rip: BDMV and CERTIFICATE...
Look into the BDMV folder and you'll see the "STREAM" sub-folder and you gonna find some *.m2ts files inside that.
The biggest one is the main movie.
Add this file to TSMuxer and you'll see all of the details of the video and audio files.
Select the main video (VC1, h264 or mpeg2), select "remove pulldown" opton and select the audio and finally demux them.
Now in this step use eac3to get ac3 file.
You got raw video and audio. Now you can select either "TS Muxing" or "Create Blu-Ray Disc" option.

The -blu-ray parameter is only for LPCM tracks, not for TrueHD track.

Thank you very much, rica! That was most illuminating. The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out, though; but I deselected all but the H.264 movie plus the TRUE-HD, and tsMuxer can even create another Bluray output again! So I'm very excited as to what the output will be! :) I disabled the PGS entries (what I assume to be subtitle streams).

The H.264 stream has a peculiar fps, though: 23.976 fps. LOL. How quaint! My new 50" Sony LCD does 24ps, when required, so I may have to force the fps to 24. But first things first: getting a valid bluray output.

All-in-all, I love this new world opening up for me; and I love this board, too! It seems here folks really know what they're doing.

P.S. Odd. The deed is done. I have a valid bluray! PowerDVD 8 doesn't seem to recognize the True-HD stream, though. But it's there, as taking the previous output as input for tsMuxer again, I see the TRUE-HD audio present! Interestingly enough, I see it now offers an option to downgrade TRUE-HD to AC3.

Ah, so much to learn, so little time to do it in! :)

[Momber]

The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out, though;
BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs.

The H.264 stream has a peculiar fps, though: 23.976 fps.

That's not peculiar, but correct, for movies.

I see it now offers an option to downgrade TRUE-HD to AC3.

Because many TrueHD tracks (not all) have an AC3 "core" that can be extracted.

When joining two m2ts files into one with tsmuxer I'm finding that PDVD and Arcsoft TMT are only playing the first part of the joined file. This is both when playback is initiated from the joined m2ts file itself and with playback from a remuxed Blu-ray structure.

I've got the same problem. I'd created the AVCHD by Nero Vision 5 and played on PS3. It showed "Data Disc" instead of "AVCHD". Does anyone know why? Thanks

[Atak_Snajpera]

Why do you use Nero????

[iSkywalker]

Why do you use Nero????

I have many TV episodes and like to see each episode showed on menu.
I tried to append 7 episodes to 1 m2ts file on tsMuxeR. However, I'd got audio and video out of sync at the end. That's why I tried to use Nero Vision to put 7 episodes on 1 AVCHD. Thanks for listening.

Yeah, that happens because the end-of-file flag is not removed.
There may be more elegant solutions, but this is what works for me:
1. Join the files with the "copy /b" command.
2. Remux the joined m2ts to m2ts (!) with Tsremux (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=125447)
3. Create BluRay with tsMuxeR

If anyone has a less time-consuming solution, I would surely like to hear it ;)

Haven't measured it, but I think this should be faster:

(1) Let eac3to remux the video to MKV and do to the audio tracks whatever you want.
(2) Let TsMuxer remux the MKV to m2ts.

This also has the big advantage that you won't get audio sync problems with those multi-part seamless branching titles, because eac3to can remove audio overlaps at the m2ts join points. If you don't remove the overlaps, audio will slowly but steadily go out of sync with every further joined m2ts part. This is especially noticable with AC3 tracks cause the AC3 overlap can be up to 32ms per m2ts part, IIRC.

P.S: I haven't actually tried myself whether this works. But I've been told by another person who has tried this and said that it works.

The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out,

Hi asarian; let me clarify this "pulldown removal" thing :)

I've seen these types of Blu-Ray disks:

mpeg2 1920*1080p 23.976 fps
h264 avc 1920*1080p 23.976 fps
for those nothing to remove since they are already 24p...
and finally;
VC1 1920*1080i 29.976 fps
we should remove pulldown from this interlaced file and convert it to 23.976 progressive one.
I have just one VC1 BD and it has no pulldown flag.
So momber might be right while saying "BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs."
But i'm not sure. At least you should try when you meet with a VC1file. (I sometimes removed pulldown from some HD-DVD VC1 files using vc1conv while i couldn't do it with TSMuxer.)

[claymic]

ok, my ps3 is not here now, so i cant test, but i think that problem is the blu-ray structure, i will try with avchd in nerovision, i dont test yet, if dont work i will try burn in UDF 2.6 , some peaple say thats way for play multiple files in ps3 with menu.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english again.

That is correct. If you are using the Blu-ray structure on an optical disc it needs to be burned in UDF 2.6, and if you've placed the files on a FAT formatted disk the files need to be renamed to only use 3 character extensions.

If either of those rules are broken the PS3 will not load the media as BDMV or AVCHD, but as plain data instead.

[SamuriHL]

UDF 2.50 for Blu-ray. UDF 2.6 for HD DVD.

Demuxing the files with eac3to and then remuxing them together with TsMuxer works good with multi-part seamless branching titles to right?

[psxiso]

PS3 don't accept Blu-ray structure burn on DVD5 or DVD9.
PS3 accept blu-ray structure on USB drive (output by tsmuxer, haven't test others).
PS3 accept AVCHD from NERO VISION 5, Ulead DVD MovieFactory 6, burn as UDF 2.50 on DVD5 and DVD9.

PS3 don't accept Blu-ray structure burn on DVD5 or DVD9.


BR structure created by TSMuxer + ImageBurn works for me.

Thanks, madshi. I will give this a try on the next suitable project.
I must admit I haven't fully tapped into all the impressive capabilities of eac3to yet. Partly because m2ts support is relatively new, partly because I usually stick to what I know to work. But then again, I haven't had to grapple with seamless branching BluRays yet...

I haven't actually tried myself whether this works.
LOL! That's kind of funny, seeing as you are the developer of eac3to :)

[madshi]

Demuxing the files with eac3to and then remuxing them together with TsMuxer works good with multi-part seamless branching titles to right?
Not with the current eac3to version because it only removes the video "sequence end codes" when remuxing to MKV and not when demuxing the video track. That will be fixed with the next eac3to version. But TsMuxer can also handle MKV files. So letting eac3to remux to MKV and then TsMuxer remux to m2ts isn't really a disadvantage, I think.

[madshi]

Yeah, I also keep using the same techniques that I know to work and am only reluctantly changing to other techniques. You never know whether you won't run into new problems when converting to another technique...

LOL! That's kind of funny, seeing as you are the developer of eac3to :)
The reason is simply that I convert everything to MKV. My final aim is not m2ts. That's why I didn't test it myself. What I did test is remuxing everything to MKV, of course... :)

[Momber]

So momber might be right while saying "BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs."
Perhaps I should qualify my statement.
There may well be BluRays that have pulldown and/or interlaced flags, but that is because they are interlaced, e. g. 1080i (although I haven't personally come across one yet).
I those cases, simply removing the flags will not do. You'd end up with jerky or even corrupted video playback. What you would need to do to make them 24p progressive is apply inverse telecine, which is beyond the capabilities of a muxer tool. At any rate, this is something that the video decoder software does, or should do. A fine example is the free DScaler MPEG-2 video decoder with IVTC patch (http://www.geocities.com/kzeuhkzeuh/index.htm), which does just that, but only on MPEG-2 video streams.

There may well be BluRays that have pulldown and/or interlaced flags, but that is because they are interlaced, e. g. 1080i S.

[Momber]

That is what i was saying
Yes I understand but we should remove pulldown from this interlaced file and convert it to 23.976 progressive one.
is somewhat misleading in the context of this thread because deinterlacing and IVTC'ing is really not something that a muxer tool does, or can do.

[rica]

momber, this is what i told:
At least you should try when you meet with a VC1file. (I sometimes removed pulldown from some HD-DVD VC1 files using vc1conv while i couldn't do it with TSMuxer.)

As i told before i have just one VC1 BD without flag, so i have had no chance yet to give it a try with another one.

[DoomBot]

Not with the current eac3to version because it only removes the video "sequence end codes" when remuxing to MKV and not when demuxing the video track. That will be fixed with the next eac3to version. But TsMuxer can also handle MKV files. So letting eac3to remux to MKV and then TsMuxer remux to m2ts isn't really a disadvantage, I think.

Great , that means i have to do all my seemless branching movies all over again.

Could i just run the remuxed files from my hard drives back in eac3to and remux to MKV then back to m2ts with tsmuxer or do i have to take the original split files from the blu-ray discs with the playlist and do it over again?

[nautilus7]

Already remuxed aren't good. You need the original files, so eac3to can detect the gaps/overlaps from the timestamps in the .m2ts files.

[DoomBot]

Already remuxed aren't good. You need the original files, so eac3to can detect the gaps/overlaps from the timestamps in the .m2ts files.

Even though eac3to already detected gaps/overlaps when demuxing the files the first time?

So does this just effect the video and not audio? Could i just take my already converted dts track that was converted with eac3to and remux to mkv while doing the original files? Or do i just run the original m2ts files through eac3to and just mux the video to mkv then take mkv and run it through tsmuxer with the dts track to make a m2ts movie file?

[Rodger]

Not sure you are using Graphedit to play those, are you?
Or you are missing something.

NOPE! May be the problem.
But... I have to say...where is to find a comprehensive guide for the programm?!

To that comes...I don´t have graphedit and have never ever used it. And finally I don´t have a clou, why and where I have to use graphedit.

What do you want from me??? :p

Sorry, but this method is based on graphedit.
This might work with MPC-HC, but never tried.

I see....thank´s anyway!

[jase99]

I've just discovered this tool and find it excellent, thank you. All playlists I've tried to remux/demux that contain the same m2ts file listed more than once results in the message: File name <file> already exists, where <file> is the filename of the m2ts file that is listed more than once. Of course the file exists, it is (part of) the source. I'm a n00b with this tool so have probably failed at something simple. Any suggestions?

Have you just demuxed the video (and audio) streams? If that's true (and you used an eac3to version with seamless branching support), then your audio tracks are fine. You only need to deal with video, but i don't know if "sequence end code" removal will work for demuxed streams.

Yes thats correct, i take the original m2ts files and demux both the video and audio streams using the newest eac3to then take the files and put them through tsmuxer and remux to m2ts.

Well i hope madshi gets the new version done that will allow us to demux the tracks separate and still have the "sequence end code" removal work and not have to mux them to a mkv and then to a m2ts.

[dburckh]

I noticed that TsMuxer 1.8.4b skipped a packet demuxing an HD DVD (Bourne Ultimatum US FEATURE_1.EVO). This packet appears to have been skipped. There may be a good reason. Just curious.

I was expecting this sequence to be in the .vc1 file, but it appears to be missing. There are a few other "missing" packets as well.

PS3 accept blu-ray structure on USB drive (output by tsmuxer, haven't test others)...

Would you be so kind and describe the working structure on USB flash drive ?
It's not working for me. I can only play each .m2ts file but never recognized as BDMV.
Thank you.

[NSI]

Would you be so kind and describe the working structure on USB flash drive ?

Search back through this thread. You'll find a program that automatically renames the files to the correct format.

Other than that you just need to put the Blu-ray structure folders inside of a directory named "AVCHD" that is in the root of the drive.

[Momber]

(1) Let eac3to remux the video to MKV and do to the audio tracks whatever you want.
See, I don't want to do anything to the audio tracks! But eac3to does - it tried to re-encode my BluRay PCM to FLAC, which is of course totally useless for later use in a BluRay structure.
I never told eac3to to do that, either...

[Beastie Boy]

I never told eac3to to do that, either...

Please post your eac3to command line.

[d2mp]

First of all: GREAT TOOL !!!
I've made several tests in the PS3: Tried converting mkv to m2ts and to bluray structure. Just fine.
I've also made some titles with selectable subtitles.
Nice. Except that if I want to put several titles in the same AVCHD DVD I don't know how !
The only way I found out was to mux each track to its own .m2ts, but this disables the subtitles (the PS3 only recognizes the subs if they are in a AVCHD).

Anyone was successful in putting MULTIPLE TITLES titles WITH subtitles in the same media (for the PS3)?

thanks a lot

[rica]

Sorry, but this method is based on graphedit.
This might work with MPC-HC, but never tried.

Rodger, i gave it a go and it works with MPC-HC as well.

BTW i have to edit the thread:
For BD
Demux sup with TSMuxer
Convert it to srt with SupRead (Open sup > select "OCR all" > select SRT > select "save as SRT" )
and finally remux to TS with TSMuxer...



The critical point here is video, audio and created srt must be in the same directory and must have the the same name.
Pls rename all the files as (for instance) test.vc1(or 264/mpv)
test.ac3, test.srt.

That's just the default action if you use the simplified "eac3to source.whatever dest.mkv" command line. You can get exactly what you want by being more exact in your command line, e.g. "eac3to source.whatever 2: video.mkv 3: Englisch.pcm".

[Momber]

@beastie boy & madshi:
I don't do command lines, but iirc eac3to_more_gui spat out "the basic one" on the project I was talking about: eac3to input.m2ts output.mkv

being more exact in your command line, e.g. "eac3to source.whatever 2: video.mkv 3: Englisch.pcm"
Very good, thanks. Now I have to figure out how to tell eac3to_more_gui to produce such a command line. Or would I have to do this manually, without the gui?

OTOH, this is somewhat off-topic in this here thread. I'll figure it out eventually ;)

In the meantime, I have used my previous method as described and it has again yielded a perfect result :)

Hi Guy's,

First off fantastic peice of software well done, Now to my problem i am creating a Blu ray structure from an original BD m2ts file and as always i just keep the Video and Audio that i want split the files into 4bg chunks rename all files so that it is playable on a FAT32 hard drive connected to the PS3.

Now the above works everytime for me if the Blu ray has DTS-HD Master Audio this plays back fine no problem, I do the exact same for a file that has Dolby TrueHD and when i come to play it back i have video but no audio through the PS3.

Can anyone tell me where i may be going wrong i have tried 5 files all of which have TrueHD and i get the exact same results, I was led to believe that the PS3 played back both DTS-HD MA and Dolby TrueHD from within an AVCHD folder with a Blu ray disc structure form tsmuxer.

Any Help:thanks:

[Beastie Boy]

@Momber Take a look at the first post in the eac3to_and_more_gui thread and follow the links to the download. Yraen has kindly made some wmv files which may be of help.

I recently received three TS files in SBTVD format. It's not DVB, nor ATSC, it's a new standard for the Brazilian Digital Terrestrial TV based on ISDB-T from Japan, and that uses H.264 1080i HD for video and AAC for audio. Some TS streams might contain a mobile version of the same content, using H.264 Baseline profile.
I tried to use TSMuxer to demux those files, but only the only stream that shows up for demuxing is the HD video. I also tried to use DGAVCIndex to parse these files with partial success (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1141194#post1141194).

So far, no application plays these files correctly. And the only app that shows all information correctly is MediaInfo (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en), although it doesn't show SI table information.

Anyway, since the standard is quite new, I thought it would be nice to make these files available for download here (http://www.cbclip.com.br/Manhattan/), for those that would like to know the differences and structure of the standard.

Hi,

Just want to share something...I have a mkv file with a lvl 5.1 x264 encoded video. Used avinaptic to check how many ref frame ithas...and avinaptic shows it as 8 ref frame...I know for a fact that PS3 only accept a max of 4 ref frame but I've watch the movie on the ps3 and it went smoothl without any hiccup...

So the issue here is what is the max limit of ref frame for PS3 since my file with 8 ref frame plays great on the ps3...

[Beastie Boy]

I think the ref frame limit is dependant on the resolution of the video. I'm guessing this wasn't a 1080p file.

Cheers, Beastie.

[Bajunid]

Ah...so it depends on the resolution....the video is a 720p file...so your guess is correct...so now I can encode a 720p file using 8 ref frames....

more ref frames = beter quality...am I right?

[Beastie Boy]

more ref frames = beter quality...am I right?

Up to a point. I usually stick with 3, purely for compatability. I don't know what device I may use for playback in the future.
I must confess to being a bit out of my depth when it comes to codec settings and go by trial and error. Others on this forum are better able to answer technical codec questions.

Cheers, Beastie.

[ckplee]

I am very happy that finally I found a tool which can easily and quickly convert video files to AVCHD format. However, there are few problems I encountered and I will be very appreciative if any experts can help me to solve them.

1. It is very strange that for some subtitle files (SRT), after converted to AVCHD, no subtitle can be shown. I checked the SRT file but could not find any problem. Then I created another text file and used "copy and paste" to paste text incrementally to test the result. And finally, I can create another SRT file that can be converted by the program. But I have no hint what exactly the problem is.

2. It cannot render AC3+ audio.

3. If the video is split into files, there will be few seconds skipped between video files. I don't know whether it is the problem of the files or the problem of the player (PS3).

Thank you very much for your help!

[xmas1888]

I think tsMuxer is an awesome application; finally have something to make movie capable of watching on my PS3. I was wondering if there was an update linux version coming out, as I've found the windows version to be pretty solid, but the linux one can be a little flakey at times(not able to mux together video that the windows version has no problem muxing, if I should post sample I can). I also was wondering when multi-title support was coming, as I would like to make some compliation blu-ray discs.

I'm also looking at creating a java program that uses mencoder and ts muxer for the backend, somewhat similar to ripbot, but with a few more features, mainly intended to have something I can run in linux that gives me HD converting ability to AVCHD. If it were possible to get the readme file in english, as none of the translators I've been able to use doesn't do a good job on the read me file.

The thread has been very helpful and I'm glad I finally found it. Thanks a ton roman!

[adalbertoma]

Hi, everyone.

I'm never tired of saying thank you to Roman for the great application. Our PS3s wouldn't be so usefull if he hadn't done this.

I've been out for a while and now that I came back, I saw there were so many updates that I don't even know where are we standing right now. Can TSMuxer already create 720P Blu-Ray discs with subtitles (using a 720P MKV file with embedded srt subtitles as a source)?

Thanks!

After successfully remuxing my first H.264 + AC3 audio to a 26G stream (The Fifth Element), today tsMuxeR (the "Start remuxing" window that is opened) 'stopped responding' the moment I try to do the same for Sunshine, and immediately says:

"Mux Complete; Return Code -1073741819"

Hi Roman,

With regard to assigning PID numbers to audio and video streams, ie: video @ PID 4113 (0x1011) and audio @ PID 4352 (0x1100).

When muxing good old fashioned MPEG-2 video with AC3 or MP2 audio within the .TS container, would it be possible to provide an option to asign the video @ PID 17 (0x11) and audio @ PID 20 (0x14).

Owners of old Sigma EM8620L chip-set based devices might find this useful ;)

Uh, no. I selected the first .m2ts file and the audio track of my choice, and set the output to "Create Bluray disc."

I just now tried to demux the streams first (though I'm not sure why I should need it), but the result is the same: tsRemuxeR demuxer window immediately hangs. Even if I select no audio at all, tsRemuxer immediately locks up.

Hi all!
When I make a tsMuxeR BD authoring with a non 16/9 (1280x720) format h264 video, PS3 BluRay reading seems always altered with big horizontal green strips making file unusable...

Are there workarounds to this ? A setting in tsMuxeR ?

I know the drastic way : frame by frame video decoding and resizing with VirtuaDub Mod before encoding again video to produce frames with horizontal black strips giving a standard 1280x720 image well supported by PS3... But it's a very long and destructive process regarding video quality...

Thanks in advance

[jefrey]

1280x720 bluray strucutre works fine, ps3 recognize the movie as a 720p bluray and set her output to 1280x720 , and not 1080 ;), also no green stripes

[Digi]

Ok so i tried tsmuxer with smaller 4gb chunks today to fit on a DVDR, PowerDVD reports and plays that i have Dolby TrueHD 2.0 audio, I burnt the file to disc from a tsmuxer created blu ray file and both my standalone and PS3 blu ray players would not play any audio, Video is present but no audio.

could this be a Bug in Tsmuxer with Dolby TrueHD soundtracks as DTS-HD Master Audio play fine no problem.:confused:

[asarian]

weird?
You're telling you even couldn't extract video at all...
Give it a go with TSRemux.

Well, I was so moronic as to use the un-ripped folder. :) So that certainly explained that. Sorry for that.

I'm still having no luck with the 'Sunshine' Bluray DVD, though. I can stream 'The Fith Element' to my PS3 just fine, perfectly fluid at ~25Mbps. But I use the exact same setting in tsRemuxeR for 'Sunshine', and I get file that will not stream at all: very jittery, that is; like it's < 10 fps. And the bitrate for audio and video are the same as for 'The Fith Element' disk! It's really bizarre.

So, okay, I demuxed the lot, ran eac3to, made a 640Kbs AC3 stream, 48Kh sampling, all by the book, and remuxed that with it instead. So, like I said, now it's running at the exact same bitrate and throughput as the other m2ts file, which streams just fine.

So, what's going on here? Disk was ripped with AnyDVD HD, so there's not a trace of BD+ stuff in it. And it plays just fine from harddisk, too (Windows Media Player). But for some reason it streams at just ca. 10 fps! (TwonkyMedia). Soon as I use no sound at all, it streams fine again.

I used the following command to convert the demuxed DTS-HD stream:

eac3to.exe 00001.track_4352.dts 00001.track_4352.ac3 -640 -down6 -8ms

And it's about 500MB, when done. Seems fair to me; but apparently not. :)

1920x1080 and 1280x720 resolutions will both work without the green stripes. 1280x544 is not a standard resolution and so green stripes fill the space where the black bars would be.

If you are still living issues with video try to extract it with Graphedit.

You can directly re-encode the audio of your m2ts with eac3to.

Yes, you're very observant. :)

I was just going to write in here, as apparently the problem occured because I had demuxed the H.264 stream first: after that, I can't stream the resultant (remuxed) m2ts file any more. I eventually solved it by simply not demuxing first, but instead to select just the original H.264 stream and add the new AC3 stream. And now it works fine again!

Leaves the mystery, of course, as to what breaks down in the demuxed H.264 stream so badly that I can no longer stream it over the wire? (whereas it would still play properly from harddisk). Maybe some sort of fps synchronization gets lost (but that sounds cuter than it's plausible, lol).

At any rate, thank you for your help!

Demux audio and re-encode it to ac3 with EAC3to (using command line is more flexible since you can open m2ts directly-for BD- and select the track whatever you want- for BD and HD-DVD- i will go on this way anyway for both format in re-authoring to BD.)

[asarian]

They have been tested, both format works on PS3.
mpeg2 > Ultraviolet (origin: BD)
VC1 > Terminator 3 (origin HD-DVD)
no re-encoding at all.

[snip]

Sadly, this doesn't work, after all. :( At least, I can't stream the VC-1 content this way. Burning it on a BD-R is another matter; so your advice was still useful (haven't tried burning yet). But streaming is still a no-go, unfortunately.

New version for Pcm2Tsmu (http://www.sendspace.com/file/8iy2b2).

Seems now work properly the STDOUT->STDIN with eac3to.
Remember the syntax:

eac3to input.dts stdout.pcm [eac3to_parameters] | pcm2tsmu - output_tsm.pcm [-i 16] [-c 2/4]

defaults: -i 24 -c 6

I think Yraen can include this new version in eac3to and More GUI.

I've seem to come across my first problem with Pcm2Tsmu. Trying to do The Matrix TrueHD -> PCM using:

eac3to source.mlp destination.pcm

Pcm2Tsmu destination.pcm destination_2.pcm

Video.vc1 + destination_2.pcm -> tsMuxeR -> final_destination.ts


I get constant garbled/hissing from the very beginning. Any ideas on how to fix this? I am going to try the Scenarist method later on and will report back........

Streamig, as in setting up a media server (Twonky Media) to 'stream' my movies over my LAN to my PS3. There are several advantages to that (no 4G limit, for one). So, I stream all my HD content from one central media server.

I think the problem isn't in Pcm2Tsmu, only when TsMuxer reject the pcm can be a Pcm2Tsmu problem.

The problem is only at the begining and after is ok, or is always wrong?

Try
eac3to source.mlp destination.ac3
(or other kind of output) and listen to know if is a mlp decoding problem.

I've been having this exact same problem (as I posted in your Blu-Ray transcoding thread on NetworkMediaTank Forum). This happens with ALL HD-DVD TrueHD tracks I've tried (most recently the 5 Harry Potter movies).

Any suggestions on how to get HD-DVD TrueHD tracks into a lossless uncompressed form that TsMuxer will accept as LPCM would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[tyee]

Can anyone confirm that when tsmuxer creates an AVCHD BR structure with trueHD audio and it is copied to an external USB HDD folder named AVCHD, (and the files are renamed to 3 letter extension), that it will actually play the trueHD audio? I get video but no audio! I read here somewhere that selecting a DTS-HD MA soundtrack will work this way, so I'm just trying to confirm whether there is a bug in tsmuxer for trueHD or the PS3 does not support trueHD from USB HDD??

Have you loaded DirectVobSub?/select the first download link:

http://www.free-codecs.com/DirectVobSub_download.htm

Don't forget you will lose HWA when you use DVSub. (BTW this is not related with DVSub itself but even any other post processing filter breaks down HA decoding workflow and it converts whole workflow into software mode.)

And have a look at this pls:

Hi Rica

I seem to have found a fairly easy way to get the .SUP file to .srt file using SUPreader.exe from here http://pel.hu/down/SUPread.exe

all you need to do is demux the relevant PGS file to .sup file using tsMuxer.
read the sup file into SUPreader and output it as a .srt file .

this can then be used by mediacoder for inclusion into AVI or mkv or just name the file the same as your .m2ts file and load it into the same directory and my popcorn network media tank reads it straight off ......sorted :thanks:

one extra thing I found is the 'FORCED' subtitles are a stream in their own right so once you have found the right PGS do as above and you get forced subtitles :eek:

it would be greta to have SUPread as an addin to tsMuxer if possible ( yeah yeah I know :p )

I get the same errors everyone else is getting; and it seems they've given up on it (as there are no replies any more, except mine, since February).

So, I'm stuck now with many VC-1 titles that are just sitting on my media server, unstreamable. :(

Someone told me I might put them in a (streamable) WMV container, without having to transcode them, even. Is that true? I'd be forced to use 2.0 sound (what moonbrained genius at M$ came up with that brilliant limitation??). But I'm getting desperate here, so if anyone knows how that works, I'll be glad to hear that, too.

VC1 in WMV play fine on PS3 over TVersity Media Server (without any convertion). Only one problem for WMV - sound. PS3 don`t play 24-bit and 5.1 wma sound. I try now convert sound only for 24-bit movies, but no luck - can`t find any worked solution and don`t have time write my own tool.
Anybody know how create M2TS VC1 + AC3 from WMV ?
XviD4PSP can easy create AC3 form WMV, but TsMuxer don`t accept WMV conteiner.
ffmpeg and mencoder create broken MKV from WMV.

Why, I got the Vista issues resolved. So, now I'm transcoding with MeGUI. I took a CQ-lossless profile, but it projected a 96G file size at some point -- a bit too much, even for my taste.

So, I transcoded a bit to RAWAVC. Hmm, odd, the H.264 stream is entirely black! I don't need 96G to achieve that; I can do that with 5 bytes! :) But seriously, what's with the black?

[winnydows]

@asarian
XviD4PSP 5.0 can easy transcode to MP4 PS3 or M2TS format.

In my case problem is how do it without video encoding (keep vc1 stream and reencode audio).
wmvmuxer-final-1.0 don`t work for me - always get error in different situations.

Not sure I fully understand: if you keep the vc-1 video, how will you stream it? in a WMV container? But then you'd drop back to 2.0 audio!

And "XviD4PSP", not sure i like that name; I mean, we're past the Xvid stage, no? I want highest quality H.264, not some inferior Xvid codec. :)

I guess I'm not doing it right. The resulting mp4 can't be played ("an error occured"); and the RAWAVC stream is entirely black. That doesn't seem right.

Plus, the MeGUI 'analyze' option says the material is 'progressive', whereas tsMuxeR clearly says it's 1080i.

Any MeGUI experts here? :)

Streaming possible in WMV or M2TS (renamed to MPG) conteiners.
XviD4PSP just history name. Now this is powerfull video/audio converter. With MP4, x264, M2TS and all other good tools inside.
About 5.1 - VC1 + AC3 in M2TS only. Or x264 + AC3 in M2TS too.
Recoding not a problem - open your file in XviD4PSP, set M2TS format and encode.
Problem only copy VC1 stream - PS3 play perfect VC1-WMV3 streams.

@n0mag!c
Thanks for tip, but TsMuxer don`t accept WMV3 FOURCC. Will try replace FOURCC to WVC1 now. Hope it help.
Also play with WMV to WMV remuxing. Found Windows Media Stream Editor tool (inside WM9 enc). Tool perfect demux streams and let create correct audio for PS3. But don`t let mux back a + v stream to wmv, may be my mistake ?

Update:
WVC1 FOURCC don`t help. TsMuxer still don`t accept VC1 stream from MKV created with gdsmux from WMV.

With this CMD:

You shouldn't have any problems. You need to let eac3to do ALL the work including calling Surcode. Don't demux the track separately and then run it through Surcode. You need to do it all in one CMD. Also make sure the channels are being remapped from BluRay LPCM -> 6 channels. I've done this tons of times with ZERO problems.

I managed to muck around a bit with the directories, and it updates now! Thanks. :)

I finally went with RipBot264, though, as MeGUI still gave me an unplayable (black) mp4. With RipBot264, you just open the m2ts files with the VC-1 stream in it, set everything to max, and presto, you have a shiny new AVC stream in no time! Well, actually, it took 10 hours, lol, but I've yet to see any prog that is so easy to use that even a newbie like yours truly can get it to work. :)

Why not let tsMuxeR remove the pulldown? I have done that with all my AVC HD-DVD's w/o issue. I get warnings sometimes in tsMuxeR when doing this but flawless playback.

[jmone]

I'm after some advice from the PS/3er's! Unfotunatly my HTPC is in the shop so I wanted to stream the contents of an HD-DVD to the PS/3 from another PC so the kids could watch a movie. The EVO's have been extracted using AnyDVD (and I can play them just fine using direct draw filters).

I used tsMuxeR GUI 1.8.4 to open up the EVO and selected for processing:
1) Video: H.264 prfile: High@4.1 Resolution : 1920:1080p Frame Rate: 29.97 (pulldown)
2) Audio: E-AC3 (DD+) Bitrate 1536Kbps Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 6

I have tried outputing these as TS / M2TS / Create Blu-ray etc but while the resultant file seems to open on the PS/3 but it is just a blank screen though there are no error reported by the PS/3. These same files can be played in Showtime just fine. I'm guessing that the PS/3 does not like the DD+ track (as the video thumbnail preview plays on the PS/3) but I thought the PS/3 supported this format (it has the latest firmware). Any idea / what are the best settings to use?

All I do is:

select the AVC stream -> manually select 24000/1001 -> select 'remove pulldown'.


As I said, I do get warnings but the muxing continues and the playback is flawless. Does tsMuxeR stop muxing when you get these warnings? You may have to do what I do and manually select the FPS and check 'remove pulldown', not just check 'remove pulldown'. I am also using a 1080p60 display and not sure if you would get proper playback using a 24p display.

2): Convert DD+ stream as follows (if 00001.m2ts is your file; works with EVO too):

eac3to.exe 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3 -640 -8ms

Where "-8ms" is the possible offset (don't forget that! eac3to will show you which offset to use, if any).

Then rejoin the demuxed AVC stream (sans the pulldown) + the new ac3 sound, and you have a streamable PS3 file!

[madshi]

eac3to.exe 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3 -640 -8ms

Where "-8ms" is the possible offset (don't forget that! eac3to will show you which offset to use, if any).
The delay is automatically applied by eac3to, so if you manually add "-8ms" to the command line the delay is applied twice - which is too much! And "-640" is the default, so you don't need to type it in. Basically you can simply do "eac3to 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3".

Hmm, I could have sworn I only saw eac3to say something to the affect of "Adjusting RAWAVC offset" when I manually added the delay. But maybe that was on a stream I had already demuxed first (in the beginning I didn't realize it could just take a whole m2ts container for input).

Thanks, anyway. These things are good to know. :)

I think I found a bug... I had changed the fps of h264 to 23.976 with h264info. Then muxed with mkvtoolnix the file +audio (dts)
Now when I want to create a bluray disk wit Tsmuxer it gives me this error: Reading buffer overflow. Possible container streams are not syncronized. Please, verify stream fps. The movie is 26 gb. But when I split the movie first with mkvtoolnix (500mb), Tsmuxer works correctly!

Hmm, I could have sworn I only saw eac3to say something to the affect of "Adjusting RAWAVC offset" when I manually added the delay.
The reason is simple: An AC3 frame is usually 32ms long. That means delaying an AC3 stream can only be done in 32ms steps - unless you want to decode and reencode the data (which would cost audio quality). Now a delay of e.g. +/-8ms is so small that it can't be applied. eac3to simply ignores it. However, if you add another +/-8ms on top of that, we have +/-16ms and that is exactly half an AC3 frame. In this case eac3to removes/adds one AC3 frame.

Thanks asarian - I've had a play and can stream to the PS3 with the downcoverted DD+ but did not apply any audio delay and paid the price with it being out of sync!

As I've got a reasonable AV setup I also tried to mux back in a PCM & LPCM conversions of the DD+ track (as I prefer quality over space) but I got a tsMuxeR error of "Can't Detect Stream Type". Can MT2 files hold LPCM/PCM and can I convert a DD+ track from EVO and mux it back in?

Thanks

Hey Guys,

Hope this helps anyone who has been having trouble turning the Transformers disc into a stable m2ts (at least for the nmt a100). As I have been experimenting with it to get the best picture. The key is to uncheck "Add Picture Timing Info".

I have a question about what "Add Picture Timing Info" actually does. I found while converting my Transformers HD-DVD that if I go with the default values in the tsMuxerGUI (which has add picture timing info checked), I get really bad "jitter" on text. It is like the frame is deinterlacing very poorly and the text jumps up and down a pixel every refresh.

This can be seen more easily on the IronMan trailer on the same disc. The Text on the Green PG rating screen before the trailer starts jitters horribly. Unchecking "Add Picture Timing Info" makes the image rock solid.

Any idea what is going on?

Thanks,
Jeff

IMHO, you're just gonna waste space doing DD+ -> PCM. You're better off doing DD+ -> AC3/DTS depending on the bitrate. I hear ZERO difference between a 5.1 DD+ track and it's equivalent AC3/DTS. And, yes you can use (L)PCM in M2TS but for tsMuxeR to accept home made PCM tracks you need to use:

Pcm2tsmu source.pcm destination.pcm

and then input destination.pcm into tsMuxeR.

IMHO, you're just gonna waste space doing DD+ -> PCM. You're better off doing DD+ -> AC3/DTS depending on the bitrate. I hear ZERO difference between a 5.1 DD+ track and it's equivalent AC3/DTS.
Well, it depends a bit on the bitrate of the DD+ track. There are DD+ tracks with 192kbps (ok, those are usually stereo). And there are some with 1536kbps. Those with 1536kbps are pretty near to lossless. Reencoding a 1536kbps DD+ track to 640kbps AC3 hurts a bit. But then many guys are also reencoding PCM tracks to AC3. So I guess everybody should just decide for himself what he wants to do...

[kalle2k3]

After remux by TsMuxeR , remux it again by TsRemux . It works well


Thats right, that really does it. But then you "lose" all your fine custom chapter points and your multi language settings, i.e. one track tagged as english, one as spanish etc.

Therefore i looked at both playlists (one from tsmuxer and te other from tsremux) with bdedit 0.17b and they only appear to be different in one place: Open playlist menu and read the 0000.mpls file. In the upper middle there should be checked only bypass mixer (after tsremux) and after tsmuxer theres only audio mix checked. But i dont know the difference between them, except that truehd does play when only bypass mixer is checked.

[tyee]

I do 1536kbps DD+ -> 1536kbps DTS, just like most AVR's do that don't decode DD+ and it sounds exactly the same. DD+ is lossy so doing DD+ -> PCM is like doing MP3 -> PCM and thinking you're listening to the CD but as I said, IMHO. You wanna waist space, knock yourself out :p

I'm going to need to convert all my HD-DVD to the Network at some point and to get them to play reliably on my equipment (HTPC / PS3).

Container: I'm a bit confisuded (well no idea would be closer) of the relative mertis of M2 and M2TS containers - any suggestions of which is "best" for my application and why?

Video: Should be OK as I'm just not that keen to do any transcoding!

Audio: It seem that the bigest issue I'll have is what format to transcode the HD-DVD DD+ (etc) tracks to that which:
1) Does not degrade the Audio (eg AC3 has 2.5 times less info than DD+)
2) Is widely supported by PC Splitters for my HTPC (I've pretty much got all combo's working fine)
3) Is supported by the PS/3 (eg I've had problems with MPEG/DTS muxed tracks as the PS/3 splitter (like many) does not push out any audio from MPG containters).
4) I Don't care about the relative file space consumed by the Audio

I'm really after the least "hassle" possible in the EVO --> M2(TS) process as possible! I'd much rather just juse tsMuxeR to change the container format from EVO to M2(TS) without any transcoding at all but it does not look possible given I'll need to stream the kids stuff to the PS3 which does not like DD+ apparantly.

Given the above is L/PCM a good choice for my HD-DVD's Audio transcoding (where needed) or is there other options.

Thanks

I personally do not own a PS3 but as far as HD-DVD audio goes I have gotten transparent results from the following:

640k/< DD+ -> AC3
768k/1536k DD+ -> DTS
TrueHD -> PCM

I have heard that the PS3 does have problems with DTS audio in certain instances and if that is the case then you will need to use PCM for 768k/1536k DD+. I use an NMT and use TS as a container for my HD-DVD conversions and M2TS for my ES BluRay rips.

Hi Tyee,

I tried various ways this evening and cannot get the TrueHD track to play even with altering the .mpls file and still no joy, the only hope is for a split file function in TSremuxer and thats it.

Thanks for those providing advice so far and so far here is my process to convert a HD-DVD with an H.264 Video and a DD+ Audio stream into a TS container streamable to a PS/3 (and playable on my HTPC).

1) Demuxing & Audio Conversion: using Eac3to More GUI by Yraen V1.09 Beta 2 ---> "C:\eac3to\eac3to.exe" "F:\HVDVD_TS\FEATURE_1.EVO"+"F:\HVDVD_TS\FEATURE_2.EVO" 3: "D:\To Mux\Video.h264" 5: "D:\To Mux\audio.pcm" Where the:
A) Video was reported as h264/AVC, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9) with pulldown flags
B) Audio was reported as E-AC3, English, 5.1 channels, 1536kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB, -84ms

2) PCM to PCM-TS Conversion: used the "Pcm2tsmu "D:\To Mux\audio.pcm" "D:\To Mux\audiots.pcm"" to convert the PCM track to something that tsMuxeR would like.

3) Remuxing: tsMuxeR GUI 1.8.4 Settings were as follows (basically as default except to change the fps) where the meta files was MUXOPT --no-pcr-on-video-pid --new-audio-pes --vbr --vbv-len=500 V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC, "D:\To Mux\Video.h264", fps=23.976, insertSEI, contSPS, delPulldown A_LPCM, "D:\To Mux\audiots.pcm"
During the muxing I got the following error messages:
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 100ms.
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 200ms.
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 400ms.

Results: All seems to play fine with the exception that there are no Chapters (I had it marked as one per 5 Minutes).

Any advice on Errors / Improvements / Omissions / Simplifications would be welcome as I certainly only want to do this once!

Thanks
Nathan

In made a AVCHD for the ps3 on a externel hd but I get only audio and a blank screen.

The mkv info from media info: 1920x1080 23.976 AVC 5.1 (cabac/6 Ref Frames) DTS. So I have changed the 5.1 profile to 4.1 profile with H264info... but stil no luck. This is the second movie with a blank screen so I really want to fix it (if possible)

You must use eac3to again: "eac3to encoded.dts fixed.dts" to remove "zero padding".

As a newbie to this area, I have been able to use this great tool to create BluRay output from HD-DVD's and Blu-Rays using video and AC3 tracks only, that play in a AVCHD folder on a USB drive attached to the PS3

tsMuxeR has been easy to use - thanks for this

But a couple of specific questions

How do I get the "audio delay"
I see that tsMuxeR has a setting to allow for this

Does tsMuxeR automatically adjust for the audio delay in a particular track?
If not, what tool do I use to get the delay?


Secondly with regard to digital audio formats "higher" than 5.1 AC3 or DTS, it seems that most or all of these have to be converted to 6.1 or 7.1 LPCM to preserve the additional info (at cost of larger size)

How do I convert these higher formats to allow them to be remuxed subsequently with tsMuxeR? - formats like DTS-MA 7.1, DTS-HD 7.1?

If a movie already has LPCM 7.1 format, I can use that directly - correct?

One final question, while I haven't come across a movie with branching structure yet, does the current tsMuxeR output allow for branching structure?

Hope you can help out
Jeff

Does tsMuxeR automatically adjust for the audio delay in a particular track?
If not, what tool do I use to get the delay?
What do you mean saying "automatically"? Just use your ears as such a tool.
while I haven't come across a movie with branching structure yet, does the current tsMuxeR output allow for branching structure?
TsMuxer supports *.mpls files and appending for this task.

I try many times put in one dvd-r 4.5 many episodes of lost, i fallowing the guide post here using nerovision, but dont work in ps3, work in my blu-ray player. Can anyone help me ? i dont no what more i can do. I try everything. Please help me.

Hi man, i am sorry, my english is very poor. I will try to explain for you. I have many files in 720p (lost, smallville, etc). I want to put them in one dvd-r (4.5 or 8.5). I fallow the guide post here, using nerovision. Works in blu-ray player, but dont work in ps3. I burn the disc with udf 2.5. When i put the disc in one blu-ray player, the player open the menu and play every episodes very well, but when i put in ps3, the ps3 show data disc. I have try to burn in udf 2.6, i have try to create a avchd and i have try to create blu-ray structure, dont work anyway. I have use dvd-r 4.5.
When i create blu-ray structure with tsmuxer for one file, works very well in ps3.
I try to join the files with mkvmerge, but the image for the second files was distorcing.
I want to put many files in one dvd-r, thats it.
I am sorry for my bad english.

[jeffnoone]

[What do you mean saying "automatically"? Just use your ears as such a tool.

Basically what I am asking here is whether in a typical Bly-Ray movie file (being processed by tsRemuxeR) there is any delay in the start of any of the audio tracks, or do they all start at time "zero"?

If there is a delay in the start of audio tracks,is there any tool to tell what what this delay is? e.g. -65msec

I agree this can be guestimated using ears, but in the past I have found that my ears often slip up here (when I used do a similar process with DVD's?)


TsMuxer supports *.mpls files and appending for this task.

thanks

[EPiPH0NE]

How do I get the "audio delay"

eac3to


How do I convert these higher formats to allow them to be remuxed subsequently with tsMuxeR? - formats like DTS-MA 7.1, DTS-HD 7.1?

eac3to source.m2ts destination.pcm

Pcm2Tsmu destination.pcm destination_2.pcm

source.m2ts + destination_2.pcm -> tsMuxeR -> final_destination.m2ts

If a movie already has LPCM 7.1 format, I can use that directly - correct?

Yes.

One final question, while I haven't come across a movie with branching structure yet, does the current tsMuxeR output allow for branching structure?

If the source BluRay is MPEG2 then you can just use tsMuxeR as stated above. If it's AVC you will need to use eac3to to properly join the segmented files.

[claymic]

Finaly. Ps3 run now my dvd-r with multiples files, menu and subtitles.First i create a blu-ray structure for my files, and the folders, like the guide post here. I create a avchd with nerovision 5, dont work for my ps3 create a blu-ray structure, then i create a .bat file (Nerovision have a bug, when save avchd in hard disc, the bat will fix that) :

[nass06]

Do you have a solution without nerovision? I don't understand, do you use tsmuxer to create blu ray? please explain me.
Sorry for my bad english.

[jmone]

Hi Nathan,

Are you configuring the PS3 to output/pass a DTS bit-stream to an external digital surround sound (DSS) amplifier?

Sorry was away for a couple of days! Yes the PS3 is configured OK. If you look at the properties of the files being played the PS3 reports that there is no audio track (as the splitter is not outputing it....)
Thanks
Nathan

[claymic]

Sorry for my bad english.

My english is very poor too. Do you speak portuguese ? if yes i can send you a private message explain everything. I will crete a guide and post here soon.
I use tsmuxer for create a blu-ray structure for each one of the episodes. EX: for episode one use tsmuxer and save the blu-ray structure in folder C:\LOST\1. Episode 2 in folder C:\LOST\2 and episode 3 and folder C:\LOST\3. Now open nerovision and choice a AVCHD and add 3 small archives of any movie ( i insert 3 movies of 1 sec each). Now create a AVCHD and save in folder C:\LOST\MENU. Use my post above for move and delete files. You can copy my post and save like a .bat, click two times and .bat will go to all make the work automatically for you.
Sorry, my english is very poor. I will try to make a guide for this.
you can search here in this fórum, have a post to create blu-ray with nero, but does not work for ps3, but you can catch the main idea and adapt it my way to create avchd.
Sorry peaple, I really would like to help and collaborate with this fórum, but my English is limited.
when the guide to be ready i will post here.

[n0mag!c]

Finaly. Ps3 run now my dvd-r with multiples files, menu and subtitles.First i create a blu-ray structure for my files, and the folders, like the guide post here. I create a avchd with nerovision 5, dont work for my ps3
So that was it. You should create "Blu-Ray" disk in nero vision, not "AVCHD" disk.

Sorry for the nOOb Q on my quest to covert my HD-DVD's to M2 files! Does tsMuxeR support reading Chapters & Subs from EVO files (HD-DVD) for the creation in the remuxing to M2?

No, it doesn't support none of above.

[carrot691]

I have MPTS (or SPTS in 38.8mbits) which I want to remux into 19mbits Transport stream. Seems like tsmuxer is the best to do the job. However I'm having little problem because I want the PCR needs to be on the Video PID and it seems like it's creating continuity errors when I use the option "--pcr-on-video-pid". Usually you add the PCR in the Adaptation header and not on a separate PID packet (wasting a few bytes when you do). Anyway, it's ok to be a seperate MPEG-2 packet but continuity counter needs to be altered in the original video PID. Seems like something quite easy to fix.

Example :
ts warning: discontinuity received 0x0 instead of 0x0 (pid=4113)
ts warning: discontinuity received 0xe instead of 0xe (pid=4113)
ts warning: discontinuity received 0x7 instead of 0x7 (pid=4113)

Also, is it possible to specify the PID I want in the output Transport stream?

Thanks.

....Now create a AVCHD and save in folder C:\LOST\MENU. Use my post above for move and delete files. You can copy my post and save like a .bat, click two times and .bat will go to all make the work automatically for you.....

I believe that what you are reporting as a bug in Nero is not exactly like that. The structure that Nero creates on the hard disk is compliant with the "AVCHD in FAT32 hard disk specification".

If you try to play those files from a USB FAT32 formatted hard disk (putting everything under the AVCHD folder in the root directory) it most likely will play, with menu, etc.... (and you don't need to burn a DVD)

Your script is replicating other existing scripts that are used to change filenames to/from tsmuxer / FAT32 devices

Good work nevertheless....

Hi

I muxed a M2TS file (from camcorder canon HG10) into a TS file with TSmuxerGUI

When I analyse these M2TS file with the MTS4EA from Tecktronix, everything is OK

When I open the TS file, appear this alert message :

"An Access Unit Delimiter NALU was found in an unexpected place. Access delimiter NAL units must occur at the beginning of an access unit."

I think that is because M2TS is a 192 octet packet file and the TS is a 188 octet file. And when you change the length of the packets, the beginning of the NAL Unit is not starting at the beginning of the new packets...

It's not an Error, just an Alert. It's just not totally complinent.
It's possible to open the file.

Thanks for this usefull soft.

I would like to start by saying what a nice program tsMuxer is. I am using it to join (append) mutliple mts files from my sony camcorder. The program does it fast and nicely. However, I am noticing the audio in the joined file appears to be out of sync. It appears to have a slight delay in the audio. Does anyone has suggestion on how I can fix that? Thanks

I am guessing you are using an AVCHD camcorder? Try using eac3to to join the files instead and see if that helps.

Yes, I am using an AVCHD camcorder. Will eac3to join the mts files as quickly as tsMuxer? This is important to me as I have an old computer.

Hello

After a subtitles ANSI srt to SUP conversion with SUPread last release and muxing to 'BluRay Disc' with tsMuxeR, my PS3 "see" a subtitles stream but when activated, subtitles stay invisible... Audio and video are OK...

Are there special parameters for SRT to SUP conversion into SUPread ?

Guys, i'm muxing to M2TS container with tsmuxer and streaming using wmp11 to my ps3. Everything works if i mux small files (e.g. 1GB maybe 2GB) but when i mux large files (like 4-6-8GB) although i can see them from the ps3 they play for a couple of seconds and then stop. Clicking information from ps3 shows that the files are 700K-800K.
Got any ideas? should i use another server or something?
cheers

Try TVersity, i've streamed 8gb+ files with no problem.

[mezzanine]

Try TVersity, i've streamed 8gb+ files with no problem.

Yes i installed tversity last night and i can stream without transcoding most of the m2ts HD files.
But there is another problem, when i try to go to a certain point of a movie it freezes. This happens with large files only. In 1gb episode HD files i can go to any point and it begins playback after 4-5 seconds.

[claymic]

So that was it. You should create "Blu-Ray" disk in nero vision, not "AVCHD" disk.

No, i have to create a avchd disc whith nerovision and replace the files with the blu-ray structure create by tsmuxer.

[claymic]

Ok, but i dont test with FAT32, and i dont find any script in the net about that. I create this for my files, for burn in a dvd-r 4.5. I try with script post here, dont work in ps3. My intention is play multiple files with menu and subtitles, burn in dvd-r. I dont want play in a FAT32 devices., so, works now and i am very happy.

It seems to me too that level 5.1 works now on the PS3.

[curtis-r]

I was previously using TsRemux to slim-down .m2ts blu-ray movies to then play through my TViX M-6500. If I didn't uncheck "bypass audio alignment", DTS-HD audio tracks skip every few seconds.

Now that I'm finding some Blu-Ray movies segmented, I found the nearly perfect solution in Ea2to and tsMuxeR to create my final .m2ts movies.

My problem: No "bypass audio alignment" in tsMuxeR, thus I'm having my DTS-HD sound issue.

Is there a comparable "bypass..." function in tsMuxeR or some other solution?

[ultratoto14]

It seems to me too that level 5.1 works now on the PS3.

Tried most of the files who needed a reenconde to work with PS3. All the files i tested are now Ok on PS3 !!

It's a great news.

[Kakan]

Hey claymic can you plz teach me how to put in many movies on 1 disc so I can play them in my bluray player ???

I Have read all paged but I don´t really got it :(

And I also wounder if its posiebol to put new subs to a bluray movie ??? Will they be in sync and stuff like that.

I need 1,2,3 step guide :)

//Kakan

[Underground78]

It seems that aac tracks in mkv files are not detected by tsMuxeR (some people have reported this and I can confirm this too) but is this a bug or a normal thing (knowing that when demuxed these tracks are usable in tsMuxeR) ? I can't find a clear answer ...

[Butterfly666]

Tried most of the files who needed a reenconde to work with PS3. All the files i tested are now Ok on PS3 !!

It's a great news.

5.1 level works with 720p movies but not 5.1 -> 1080p movies!

[Joniii]

I just installed latest version of Cyberlink PowerDVD 8 Ultra. I noticed that I get no audio from any of my .m2ts files with DTS tracks. I then tried to remux one DVD .vob to .m2ts. Original vob plays fine and PDVD detects DTS track but with .m2ts it thinks there is no audio tracks. Something wrong with the tsmuxer maybe?

[nefilim]

Any news on an updated Linux version ? Would be great if it could be updated with all the fixes the Windows version has.

[n0mag!c]

No, i have to create a avchd disc whith nerovision and replace the files with the blu-ray structure create by tsmuxer.
You MUST create "BLU-RAY" disk in NeroVision if you wish to burn result to DVD-R(W) / BD-R(E)
You MUST create "AVCHD" disk in NeroVision if you wish to play result from USB (flash)disks.

Hi,
Very good tool, but I need a feature. Is it possible, in the next release, to open a MTS file ?
It's a file from a canon HD camcorder, coded in AVCHD at 15Mb

If you need you can download a exemple (4794 Ko) :

Thanks a lot...

I have this problem too. I just rename my files to .m2ts and it works just fine. I think it is just a bug in the way it determines whether the file is a 188-byte packet file or a 192-byte packet file (it thinks your .mts is 188 when it is 192). This would be nice to get fixed though, but the work around is pretty easy:

rename *.mts *.m2ts

I would like to start by saying what a nice program tsMuxer is. I am using it to join (append) mutliple mts files from my sony camcorder. The program does it fast and nicely. However, I am noticing the audio in the joined file appears to be out of sync. It appears to have a slight delay in the audio. Does anyone has suggestion on how I can fix that? Thanks

This is another feature I would really like to see added to tsMuxeR. I made up an Excel spreadsheet to help me overcome this problem with my Canon HF100. The problem is that the audio is usually slightly longer than the video since the audio is made up of 32ms AC3 frames. What needs to be done is the total number of video frames and audio frames needs to be counted as it is going along. When a join point comes, if the audio is now more than 16 ms longer that the video, the last frame should simply be thrown away. This will give it a slight negative offset, but that will soon be corrected once the next clip or so has ended. This is what my Excel spreadsheet does. It is complicated, and uses a few other tools to do everything:

DGAVCIndex to count video frames
AC3 Cutter to count audio frames
tsMuxeR to join all clips with audio (out of sync)
AC3 Cutter again to remove audio frames where necessary.
tsMuxeR again to join all clips and merge with corrected audio

However, it DOES work. I'm sure that if tsMuxeR is able to determine the number of video and audio frames going by, this type of merge should be easy enough to add to it. I know I'm not the only one with one of these AVCHD camcorders, so it would be a valuable addition indeed. If Roman is still watching this thread, I'd be glad to assist him in adding this feature.

Hi, one quick question: If I just want to strip some audio and subtitle tracks, simply remux the original Blu-ray .m2ts file, does it matter if I use 'M2TS muxing' or 'Create Blu-ray disk' as the Output option?
Would both resulting streams be in any way different from one another AND more importantly from the original one?
Does 'M2TS muxing' mean that a .TS file will be created, whereas 'Create Blu-ray disk' will create not only Blu-ray folders but also a Blu-ray compliant .m2ts file?
Or is the only difference the BD structure?

And could someone explain me the difference between .ts and .m2ts streams?

Would really appreciate your input on this one,
thx in advance.

Hi, one quick question
BD structure is not only M2TS file itself. So if you wish to burn AVCHD/BDMV disk you must use 'Create Blu-ray disk' option.
If you wish to play your movie as file then you must use ".ts" output, 'cause it's smaller then ".m2ts" file, 'cause its packets have smaller size.

I would be very happy to have this available. I also have an AVCHD Sony camcorder...

On another issue, is there any new info about the "jumps" we see when splitting the m2ts file in a FAT32 device (playing on PS3) ? Is there a way to solve it ?

I jsut found out about htis tool and reading hte first page I saw "SRT subtitles" in the streams to be muxed and was so excited!

Is it possible with this tool to add Greek SRT subs to my blu-rays keeping ht estructure intact and avoiding re-encoding of video/audio ?

5.1 level works with 720p movies but not 5.1 -> 1080p movies!
It`s not a rule. Some 720p work, some don`t. Same for 1080p. Everything depend on luck in this case.
