thanks a lot...

Nice one !
So far all remuxed files I tried stream nicely to the iPhone 4 using the "Air Video"-App. :cool:
10x faster then using conversion (or re-encoding) and no strain on CPU (greetings from my Laptop).

Only thing missing would be a remote control app for the Iphone...
Using Remote Desktop Apps to initiate the re-muxing is quite a challenge for people with full sized hands&fingers like me :rolleyes:
:thanks:

[Hobbe]

Thanks! Great program! Any plans to support downmix of multichannel audio.. 7.1,6.1 -> 5.1 ?

I think I also have found a bug.. dts-es 6.1 audio encoding dosent seams to work.. you just get one channel aac in the resulting file.

[oreons]

Any plans to support downmix of multichannel audio.. 7.1,6.1 -> 5.1 ?

You need AAC 5.1 or AC3 5.1 from DTS 6.1?

I think I also have found a bug.. dts-es 6.1 audio encoding dosent seams to work.. you just get one channel aac in the resulting file.
Try to install Arcsoft dts decoder. Eac3To uses the default libav decoder that works incorrectly with DTS 6.1-7.1

[Hobbe]

aac 5.1.. ac3 always downmix to 5.1.

I'm using arcsoft dts decode v1.1.0.0..

[oreons]

I tested the file 7.1 DTS -> 2.0 AAC. The sound is normal.
When make DTS 7.1 -> AAC multichannel, the sound is wrong. In future versions I will add a decrease to 5.1. This is one option for Eac3To (-down6).

Does this support placing ac3 5.1 audio in an mp4 file? IE recoding from AAC or DTS TO AC3?
:thanks:

[oreons]

You can put original AC3 to Mp4 file, select the checkbox in the settings of track.
http://i31.fastpic.ru/big/2011/1116/00/3a44eb8ccae34f191d3cf3608856e500.jpg

DTS can transcoded to AC3. AAC is not encoded.

Some requests if it's possible :)

Show fps and remaining time when encoding.
Allow encode from mov and mp4. You may want lower resolution/bitrate.
Make it possible to change number of channels when edit audio stream from wmv. I have set 5.1 in global aac options but if audio source is 2 channel I want 2 channels :)

Is it possible to use quicktime/itunes portable? And use qaac with just the required dll's?

[oreons]

Allow encode from mov and mp4. You may want lower resolution/bitrate.
From Mov and Mp4 you can encode for this turn to edit mode in the stream window (right mouse click).

If source is 2-channel, the output will also be 2 channel.
Is it possible to use quicktime/itunes portable? And use qaac with just the required dll's?
What about portable I do not know, but it works with QT Lite (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/QT_Lite.htm)

[Hobbe]

From Mov and Mp4 you can encode for this turn to edit mode in the stream window (right mouse click).

If source is 2-channel, the output will also be 2 channel.



Ahh ok. Thanks. I missed edit mode :)

Ok. It said Output AAC 5.1 in the audio window..

This is a display information bug :)

[yunapolaris]

Very helpful tool!! I use it to convert MKV movies to watch on PS3 with my family :D . Thank you so much for sharing this !

[DarkT]

I've read through it, I saw somebody write that he/she did dts --> something else, does this program allow one to change that? Right now I got WDTV, and it reads lots of things, but DTS... Ugh... So, would be nice if I could just auto-reencode the DTS with 1 program... Right now I extract, use behappy on the DTS, then I re-package... Also, does it have batching?

You can convert DTS to AC3 or AAC.

It saves files with the extension .m4v

any way to have it output .mp4 files so I do not have to rename every file? I could not find an option for this but perhaps do not know where to look.

Thanks!

The program is not possible to switch to mp4 extension. You can rename the files manually. M4v extension is chosen because that Apple only allows to switch tracks on m4v files.

[Rat Killer]

Any way to specify AC3 audio as the default output rather than aac?

Can the AC3 audio bitrate be set?

Can the files be output in IMSA standard streamable mp4 format (IE with the moov atom at the front of the file)?

Thanks for your help. The utility is very useful and fast. Appreciate your work on this.

[oreons]

Any way to specify AC3 audio as the default output rather than aac?

You can disable the encoding to AAC taking off checkbox in the settings. Change the number of tracks can not be.

Can the AC3 audio bitrate be set?
Yes, when encoding DTS.

Can the files be output in IMSA standard streamable mp4 format (IE with the moov atom at the front of the file)?
Yes, in the tags settings you can set the MP4 optimization checkbox.

9. Copy chapters from one film to another.

[Foofaraw]

So what do you do when there is no sound in the output?

It's odd though, because in the Temp directory there is a wav file with the sound track (downcoded from ac3)

[oreons]

Please write program log (at the directory Temp\log)

[Balthazar2k4]

Oreons, are you still looking into the TrueHD->AC3 issue? I know you have been busy and you mentioned you might take a look at it for the next version. The more I use your program the more I wish it worked with TrueHD. I have said several times already, but fantastic tool and that is really the only issue left for me.

[oreons]

Try this test version: http://www.mediafire.com/?f7lfejo1m4orpyc
(replace MkvToMp4.exe from the archive)

[Kalle333]

I only have stereo speaker equipment but after converting to AAC5.1
the centerspeaker track in ac3 is converted to left speaker in aac5.1
i other words: i can hear the center track of ac3 on left+right channel but
the center track of aac on left channel.

This is what MkvToMp4 v0.218 (and v0.219) do:

extract AC3
Azid -p 6ch -a -n true (ac3 to wav)
qaac --quality 2 --ignorelength --tvbr 107 (wav to aac)

the wav file and aac file sounds the same to me. (center on left channel only)
So azid conversion may be wrong. azid have an option to

to analyze this a bit I opened the wav file with reaper and I get this order:

front left
front right
rear left
rear right
center
LFE

which i figured out is wrong.
the right order should be:

front left
center
front right
LFE
rear left
rear right

which i get when i run azid with the following option:

azid -d 3/2 -o L,R,C,LFE,SL,SR "track.ac3" "track.wav"
(btw: this is the same result with LameXP)

please check this and maybe change it in the next version.

Thanks Oreons. I will give this a try tonight and let you know. Also, is the program supposed to keep the settings I save? I have to go into settings each time I open the program and change settings to what I want even after hitting "save".

An error occurred while encoding the sound, try changing the codec to Nero (Setup-tab Audio), or reinstall QuickTime.

Ah, so quicktime has to be installed. Oh well.

[Hobbe]

Is it ok to update programs in the tools folder?.. Some are very old.. like ffmpeg, mkvtoolnix, x264, qaac...

[oreons]

Hobbe
Complete set of programs been tested, the new version may be unstable.

[Balthazar2k4]

Not to be pushy, but any updates on the TrueHD issue?

[oreons]

Not yet.

[Foofaraw]

Are there plans to one day make this repack work without quicktime being installed?

[oreons]

Foofaraw
You can use Nero or CoreAudioToolbox codec, see Setup-Audio-AAC codec.

Let me rephrase: Will it ever be possible to remux without having to install codec on the computer.

[oreons]

For remux no need to install any codecs. QuickTime is recommended for higher quality audio processing.
For WinXP only: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package.

Great news! That is pretty much the last piece of the puzzle for me.

[Balthazar2k4]

As I am in the process of converting over all of my MakeMKV Bluray backups of my collection to m4v for iTunes, I am amassing a large quantity of files with FLAC audio to be processed. Yeah, I could do it all manually (either rerip or command line eac3to), but it sure would be nice if MKVtoMP4 could do it. :)

Hi there

I'm trying to convert AVI file to MP4 and embed external subtitles SRT file into the MP4 file but I get an "Invalid format" error

Please advice what I'm doing wrong and what format my external subtitles should be in to work with MkvTpMp4

Write a program log (directory Temp\Logs) and place the external srt to mediafire.com for check.
