Lately antivirus apps have been reporting this as an infection, this might be preventing the download from completing. So far McAfee and AVG Free have reported as a false positive.

Hi folks,
@ setarip ... Nice to see YOU around!
@ Odin ... I am using the McAfee Enterprise on the desktop ... I have to try downloading via my laptop since I have Avira on that one!
Thanks,

i hope he's ok after his big operation.
i wish someone could remake an app like this and bring it up-to-date with eac3to current features.
Have you tried MeGUI's HD Streams Extractor? It's not quite as feature rich as this application, but it gets the job done for the most part.

Sorry to be away for so long everyone. I've only started to feel like sitting in front of this screen for awhile recently. Needless to say, there were some complications and side effects I wasn't prepared for.
Seeing all the new gui's out there for eac3to, is there any interest in this gui still? I haven't touched the source in over a year now I think.

I for one would love to see the GUI under continued development. I know others will also. The GUI I'm using now is the one in MeGUI and it seems that at least for the time being, if not permanently, that project is finished. We could all use some fresh developments here.

Okay. Looking around I'm not sure what programs are needed anymore. Any tips? I've got some ideas for a very streamlined gui. Massive preferences, hopefully supporting all options the programs offer, but once set would not need to be changed. Just type in the name and click go. It analyzes the files, chooses appropriate settings based on those files and sets about doing it's job.

glad to see you back and hope you did recover well now
i still use your GUI cause i never really liked the others, they all seemed to lack 1 feature or the other that is important to me, thx for starting to work again on it
btw 1 thing that would be nice, if you could add an option in the gui to show the current demuxing/working percentage of eac3to
important proggies: hmm i can only speak for me
AnyDVD in the back
eac3to of course
tsmuxer to remux
pcm2tsmu is not that important anymore cause the possibility to (externally not in eac3to) convert to DTSMA came up, but i guess it can t hurt to have the option available

pcm2tsmu is not needed anymore because the last TsMuxer claim support .w64 input files.
But the 'pipe' options can be useful for encoders like Lame, OggEnc, Aften (for not standard conversions), TwoLame, ...

Here's what I'm looking at right now. Eac3to, BDSup2Sub, MkvMerge and tsMuxeR. Everything in the gui is a preference, set once and applied every time. This is configurable down to the audio track type, language and video track type. This gui will "learn" new audio types that it doesn't know yet and allow you to set preferences for them.
@tebasuna51
Nice little gui there. Very functional. Lots of options. I don't think the pipe options will make it into the first version I get out. They should be easy to add in later though, if needed.

I dont know why.. but can not use 0 to search through the folder structure for a Bluray disc no matter what.. It keeps defaulting to C:\Users\Mike\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Burn directory rather then the Bluray Disk.. any ideas?
EDIT: Seems there is a bug reading from a disc when Burning is turned on... I enabled a Local Policy in the Policy Group Manager that disables the out of the box Burning capabilities of the OS (Windows 7 x64) - I use Imgburn anyway... Odd though..

mikelebron,
Not sure what you mean there. Can you give me a few more details? The gui never even looks for any type of burning software or settings.
@all,
I'm about 60% through the new gui. It's looking good. With any luck I'll have something out for testing before christmas.

I was trying to rip right from the bluray drive. As instructued i selected the bluray drive (with anydvd running) and put in 0 where a file would be entered. Instead of the bluray structure the location of the temp space for CD burning was used.
Windows 7 has CD/DVD burning capabilities out of the box. It seems Windows stores markers of what needs to be burned in the directory above. For some reason, your GUI is picking up this temp directory instead of the actual Bluray Drive. I disabled the OS burning capabilities by setting a Local group policy using gpedit.msc. Once this was done the drive was read and was able to rip using your GUI.

Yes! I use this GUI daily. It's the best eac3to GUI out there by a long shot. Getting a a Blu-ray or HD-DVD straight to an MKV is easy as pie with this. I personally can't think of anything I would change. Be nice if the interface is cleaned up a bit and maybe brought up to date with eac3to's features but there is nothing I personally use that needs any altering.
One thing that would be great for me is the ability to open MKV's, change an audio stream from THD to DTS or some other format then output the MKV again untouched with chapter points etc. This is largely because I've made MKVs with THD and cannot play them back with anything and it would save me demuxing them, loading chapter points up, re-compressing the audio and re-muxing it all!

This sounds great btw! Especially the BDSup2Sub option. Presumably if you are ripping a foreign title to MKV you will set your video track, audio track and subtitle track and it will OCR it? Or will it be a graphic format muxed into an MKV? Not sure if that is possible or not?
EDIT
I think I am confusing BDSup2Sub with SupRip (http://exar.ch/suprip/)
Thats what I currently use to get subtitles. I OCR them and then get ffdshow to load the .sub file.

Did you have some files queued up to be burned at the time? I'll be the same thing would happen on Vista also. I'm not sure there is any way to bypass that link that windows uses without disabling it like you did. I've never tried running it with files queued up to be burned.

Thanks. The new one should support everything eac3to can currently do, and enable the end-user to add new values (as eac3to gains support for them) to existing switches in eac3to.
I'll look into chapter marks in mkvs, but I'm not sure that eac3to can see them. If you only have a few files, you might demux and convert the audio with eac3to and use mkvmerge gui to remux the new audio track back into the mkv.
I think I am confusing BDSup2Sub with SupRip (http://exar.ch/suprip/)
Thats what I currently use to get subtitles. I OCR them and then get ffdshow to load the .sub file.
I used to use SupRip, but just found BDSup2Sub and liked the fact that I could do it with a command line. It does use images, but ffdshow has no problem loading them for me. I don't mux them into the mkv, I just name them the same as the movie and leave them in the same folder.
No.. i have my temp/output directory set to C:\Temp\eac3toTemp. I can try to disable the policy (re-enable the burning feature of the OS) and see if it re-occurs. If it does I will take some screen shots.
Have you tried dragging and dropping your BD drive onto the exe or shourtcut for the gui? I'm thinking of where you said you entered 0 for the file name. If you just load the folder, no file name should be given.

I don't actually mux them into the MKV either, I create an srt I think that loads with most players. I remember why I use OCR'd files though. Its because I use DXVA for all my HD stuff in MediaPortal, not ffdshow and MediaPortal (1.1) will render your subs and still use DXVA for HW accelerating H.264 decoding etc.
TBH I only have subs for 2 films so I personally don't need to do it often! Think it's a good idea to roll some subtitle ability in to the app though for the people who do need it!
Yraen
20th December 2009, 22:48
I've got a question for those who mux to .m2ts files for other devices. Should subtitles be included into the .m2ts in their original state? Should they be demuxed and left in the folder? Or should they be converted with bdsup2sub? I've got everything working now except tsmuxer. I'm unsure how to handle the subtitles being an .mkv man.
Edit: Figured out a work around that allows both user choice and what I want to achieve with the gui.
A little update while I am here. Everything is working fine, just need to finish the tsmuxer portion of the code and it's done.

@all,
I discovered a bug that only appears when the gui has been compiled into an *.exe. It seems that the subtitles don't want to be created with bdsup2sub. Not sure why, as it runs fine when I run it from the source code, but not from a compiled version. I'm looking into it.

I can't work with your GUI.
No matter if I open a BD folder, a mkv or an audio file I don't now how output anything.
I click the Parse tracks button and see the progressnumbers window but I can't see the eac3to log to know the tracks present in the input.
After select some options in Audio/Video tabs click in Make Movie and do nothing.
¿How I can extract the tracks from a mkv or m2ts files?
If I check 'Demux with eac3to and mux with MkvMerge' I get this error:

The files chosen for output are based on your settings on the Eac3to Audio and Eac3to Video tabs. This gui goes on the assumtion that you pretty much do the same things every time, and seeks to eliminate having to chose those options every time. It doesn't show a track list, it uses the preferences you set to determine what tracks to get.
Parse tracks looks for new audio, language and video types that the gui hasn't learned yet. It's only really needed if you prefer not to use the ini files I included. The gui will check for new types every time you process a file or folder when you click "Make Movie".
To make the movie, once you've set the preferences, just highlight the source and destination of your choice, name the movie and click make movie. This should analyze the tracks and make the movie.
Found what caused that command line, working on it now.

I think the new version of the GUI is too much oriented about movies.
But for me eac3to is what it's originally meant to be: an audio conversion tool. I'm using it a lot for various audio conversion, extraction and downmixing and I have to admit I'm a bit lost with the new GUI since I can't figure out how to make a simple audio extraction to WAV(s). Looks like the program absolutely wants me to create a movie, what I don't want to do.
Or am I missing anything ?

Ok.. I get the new interface.. very very out of the box thinking.. took me a few minutes to understand it... the only question I have how does it know if there are multiple version of the same movie lets say gladiator which has the regular movie and then also has the extended cut which one to select? The longest running?
Also under output As Type.. if i dont select an output type "<NONE>" will it leave the audio as is?

No need to apologize. I knew when I wrote it that it wouldn't be for everyone. It's mainly aimed at backing up your discs. That's why I left the old version up also.

You're not missing anything. It's not really geared at audio conversion and nothing else. It wants to mux the output of eac3to with either mkvmerge or tsmuxer. That's what it was built for. For your usage, the older gui or one of the others would probably be better.

Also under output As Type.. if i dont select an output type "<NONE>" will it leave the audio as is?
Thanks. It was a step in a different direction, and it was fun making it work. If it's only going to output one titleset, it chooses the longest one, or the first of multiple with the same length. There's an input box on the eac3to video tab that will let you set the length of titlesets, which causes it to process all titlesets equal to or over that amount of time. Personally, I set that to 60 since I would extract all long titlesets myself and see if I wanted to use them.
The output as type works on each type in the list. Leaving one set to <none> will cause it to not be used. This will let you set DTS Master Audio to output as flac, DTS as dts, AC3 as ac3, etc. Each one of those supports all switches for that output type. Setting -normalize on AC3 output will not set -normalize on any other output. This will allow you to customize each output type independently of the others. The same applies for the video type found in the files/disc.
Let's say you only export one audio track, one video track and forced subtitles every time. Ordering the audio track types (top to bottom), languages and video resolutions will tell the gui your preferences. It will search the video track(s) for the best resolution according to your order, the audio tracks according to audio and language order, and the subtitle tracks according to the language order. Once it finds these it processes them through eac3to, with audio being processed based on the track type found and the preferences set for it. Once processed, it will see if any of the subtitles were forced, if so run them through bdsup2sub if you chose, and if not remove them according to the way you said to handle working files. It will then mux them into the final file/folder and clean up after itself.
Basically, after the time spent setting preferences all you'll have to do is select the source, select the destination, type the name and click a button.
I'll try to get some better documentation (with screenshots) up in a day or two.

Yes it is... I have not yet built a movie yet but last night played with it a little and like the idea... The only concern I have from what I can see initially is that it will build BOTH movies... Such as Gladiator which has regular 2.5 hours and extended cut over 3 hours... I would recommend adding a check box that allows you to select build largest, build second largest OR ALL larger then the length of the title set you provided. Typically with movies there are only two versions of the movie.. Assumption is that the largest is the extended version, the second largest is the regular movie and anything larger then the title set time frame is everything.

I think I'm too stupid to use the new version.. it is just impossible!
I just want to convert an audio file test.dts to test.ac3 with the old gui version it was no problem, how can I do it with the new gui????
At "convert movie"-tab I select source file etc. on the "Eac3to audio" I select "AC3" and "Output Type As" .ac3.
Now I press "Add to batch" and it lists the file.. ...\test.dts -> "empty"
When I hit "Run Batch Files" nothing happens..
What am I doing wrong?????????????????????

Would be great if on the old version we could set an MKV output name rather than just movie.mkv as it gets overwritten every time!
That way I could set a batch of a number of titles with different mkv output names and leave it for a few hours. Great for tv series bd-r's...

I have been successful in converting most of my Blu-ray collection to M2TS files with LPCM audio for streaming to my PS3. I use tsMuxeR GUI to demux the audio, eac3to and More GUI to convert the audio to LPCM (using stdout), then MUX back together with tsMuxeR GUI. However, I have run into a few movies that the LPCM audio turns out extremely slow (like it is playing in very slow motion) and out of sync with the video. This appears to be happening only with DTS-MA 7.1 source audio.
Has anyone encountered this or have any suggestions on how to correct it? Thanks!

Use eac3to to extract the audio from BD/m2ts to .w64 output.
The last TsMuxer must accept this format like input.

Am I the only guy here using win7?
When I run yr_eac3to_more_gui on Win7 or server 2008 R2, the font on the program is HUGE, when I mean huge, the program wont even fit on a 1280x800 screen!
Could you please investigate? Thanks!

The new version has the font problem, not the old version.
Anyone else seeing this?

Yes, I have the same problem. :confused:
Therefore I can not use the new GUI.
My OS is WinXP Pro.

As much as it pains me to say so, the new GUI marks the absolute pinnacle of uselessness.

1) When I demux Blu-Ray subtitles and convert to SUB/IDX with BDSup2Sub, the SUB/IDX files are not muxed into the final matroska video. Rather they are added as separate files in the output folder. Why not mux these with the video, or at least provide an option to do so?
2) On the "Saving Private Ryan" Blu-Ray there are two English subs, an English and an English SDH, but both are simply marked as English. Although I have English and English SDH as my top 2 language choices, and chose to use the two top choices in making track selections, if "demux subtitles of chosen language only" is selected, it will only demux a single English subtitle.
Is there an option to simply demux all English subs?
3) Eac3to and More does not add language codes to the final MKV's audio and subtitle streams. This would be simple to do as the language is in the file name, so it would merely require telling MKVMerge which language to use for each. Otherwise, all subs and audio tracks are marked as "und" (undetermined) making it difficult to navigate.
4) Could you add an option to "Demux with eac3to, Mux manually"?
5) Currently, if you attempt to "Make Movie" without selecting a source folder and output folder, the movie name will disappear after the warning is shown requiring you to retype it. Can you prevent this behavior?
In addition, if there is only one source file/folder and one output file/folder, why not have them selected automatically if none are selected rather than complaining that no source was chosen?
I actually quite like the new layout. It allows you to set your settings once for all rips.

This is actually remarkably easy to do. This is the relevant command from mkvmerge:
--language" "2:eng" "--track-name" "2:English FLAC @ 16/48"
"2:eng" indicates that track 2 is an English language track, and "English FLAC @16/48" is the track description. Merely using the full language name should be sufficient for the description.

ahhh, my eyes... the new gui is horrible!!!
first of the old version is still my gui of choice when comes down to using a gui with eac3to and i always hoped yraen would update. well he did 8 months ago and i didn't know *DAMN*. now checking the latest version (1.10.01) i just shake my head. why change the way it is now? the new design is horrible and not as intuitive as the old one. where is info pane? though, i like new features but this one is a total failure.
please yraen, return to the old design and update to the new features of eac3to in conjunction with tsmuxer (create br/avchd output, etc).

Fully agree - i've tried a lot, but i couldn't get the new GUI working at all - how the hell i can recode audio with that?
The Version before was just perfect to me, with a little (very little indeed) things i wanted to be added, but...nah...

I am sure that those who are writing this fronted GUI have spent a lot of time putting this together, but I must admit that it has so far completely evaded me how to successfully use it for the purpose of audio extraction. (typically, getting multichannel audio from an ISO image of a DVD-V -not Blu-Ray- and converting it to either .wav or FLAC format)
All the while, even though I am a total n00b at this I have been able to use the command line app with great and very predictable results, including all sorts of very sophisticated sample rate conversion options, channel re-ordering, flac encoding all at once, so I would love for anyone to point me to a step-by-step tutorial or wiki where this is explained clearly. The only thing about the command-line app is that it's not all that easy for repetitive tasks, and re-entering many new names can sometimes lead to mistakes or inconsistencies.
Whenever I set the parameters more or less right on this GUI, and after making sure that there is a 'movie' name selected for output (why?), and saving all of the settings as a batch job, (with the same exact audio parameters as what I do on the command line) the best I get is an error message about 'too many values in array' or something of that sort. (sorry, not in front of it right now so I do not recall exactly what the error returned was)
Anyway, would love to give this a try, but obviously something is not very intuitive on how to go about it for audio-only.
Thanks in advance...

I don't like the new GUI either. What was wrong with the old layout? Can one use v1.09. Beta 10 with the latest version of eac3to? I've been using eac3to317 with the old GUI because I don't like the new one. The old version of eac3to does most of what I want, but it would nice to be able to use the latest version.
