Also my latest trials proved the only way of listening lossless audio formats as is (24 bit) over analog cables on conventional receivers is transcoding them to flac via eac3to.
Thanks to madshi again; hope you will make the madecoder filter someday which allows us to listen the lossless audio as is. Last edited by rica; 31st December 2008 at 01:51. |

Based on suggestions from forum members, I've decided to mux (into MKV) the FLAC audio track instead of the DTS-HD audio track (which seemed to not playback very well in Zoom Player anyway).
One question though, in the past when I muxed my HD-DVD into MKV, I used a timecode file in MKVToolnix (23.976). Is it still necessary to do this? If so should it be for the audio track or the video track or both? Thanks! The_Keymaker |

If you let eac3to mux the video (and automatically remove pulldown) into mkv you don't need anything more. Just do a second manual pass with mkvmerge to mux audio, etc (again with no timecode).

I'm working on the Jethro Tull Live in Montreux Blu-Ray. The movie is contained in two m2ts files one of which is only 00:00:01 in length. The movie contains one video file and three audio tracks: DTS-HD MA 5.1, AC3 5.1, and LPCM 2.0. The movie is h264/AVC, 1080i at 29.970 fps. It's not playing real smooth through the Popcorn Hour. If I use eac3to to change the frame rate of movie from 29.970 to 23.976 will I need to do anything to the audio tracks to make them sync with the new frame rate, or will they be ok native? Or do I just need to demux the movie to a raw h264 file and let eac3to fix whatever pulldown or stuff is going on with the video file?

If there is a pulldown, eac3to will remove it. So the best way; first demux the video via eac3to and check the frame rate with Mediainfo after demuxing. If nothing has changed, it is clear the movie is nativelly interlaced and nothing to do with it. If it returns to 23.96, that means you've removed the pulldown and no need to make any change on audio since the the original is 23.96 already. But if you change it to 25 fps you have to use speedup option in both video and audio while demuxing. Last edited by rica; 31st December 2008 at 03:18. |

Using eac3to v2.87 I'm having trouble with Ratatouille Blu-ray.
Using the command line: eac3to "F:\Blu-ray\RATATOUILLE" Gives me three seemless branches with the same duration. The first 1) is called angle 1, the second 2) is called angle 2, and the third 3) is called angle 3. When I play this disc using PowerDVD I don't have the option to change angles so I wonder if there really are angles on this disc. Can anyone tell me what the difference is in the various angles? |

ex. If you've seen any of the Star Wars movies, in the beginning is the slanted yellow text. In the DVD Menu, you can choose to watch the movie in Eng/Fr/Spa and in doing so you also choose which version of the text is to be shown when starting the movie. When ripping DVD's to the computer with DVDDecrypter, you can choose which angle is ripped; I'm not as sure with bluray. |

I am currently testing x264 encoding to find the best options for my encodings. I am creating h264 raw streams with x264 and then mux them into mkv with mkvmerge 2.4.1. After reading the above, I have tryed muxing with eac3to but it always says: "The format of the source file could not be detected". I am using eac3to v2.87. Here is the first 1MB of one of the files, it's a 23.976fps stream: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GX84ITRG Could you take a look at it? Or eac3to does not support x264 h264 raw streams? Thanks in advance |
