UsEac3to v1.3.4: a different GUI for eac3to

[tebasuna51]

Try now with SL-SR, or try to flac if your OPPO suport it.

Or maybe to flac 5.1 (the empty channels are compressed without size):

-af "pan=5.1(side)|FL < FL|FR < FR |FC < .0FR |LFE < .0FR |SL < BL |SR < BR"

[SeeMoreDigital]

So... I decided to start again using a smaller (470MB) '4-channel pcm.wav' audio file as a source', and: -

With this command line: -af "pan=5.0(side)|FL < FL|FR < FR |FC < .0FR |SL < BL |SR < BR", I hear no audio from the side channels on my OPPO.

However with command line: -af "pan=5.1(side)|FL < FL|FR < FR |FC < .0FR |LFE < .0FR |SL < BL |SR < BR", I hear audio from all the channels perfectly on my OPPO. So that's great.

But wait... There's more...

I re-encoded the original '4-channel pcm.wav' audio file to a '4-channel. flac' audio file, and the OPPO played all the channels perfectly too!

So I'm both happy and confused.

Using the same '4-channel pcm.wav' file' as a source, I've just performed another test using this much shorter command line: -af "pan=5.1(side)". And it generated exactly the same result as this command line: -af "pan=5.1(side)|FL < FL|FR < FR |FC < .0FR |LFE < .0FR |SL < BL |SR < BR".

It's all like living in "The Matrix" stuff to me....

ffmpeg is always a surprise.

About flac: yes, the default channel layout for 4 channels is: front left, front right, back left, back right, then is correct with your source.

It's certainly a weird one.

The 4-channel (quadraphonic) DVD-Audio disc plays fine in the OPPO. But the extracted '4-channel mlp/pcm.mlp' or '4-channel pcm.wav' files do not. But '4-channel flac.flac' files play fine.

Also, I've just discovered that '4-channel dts.mka' contained files play okay in the OPPO too...

Nothing is every straight forward is it

Anyway to scale the GUI larger/easier to read fonts?

Out of interest... What resolution display do you have?

I have a 1080p monitor. I can read the font easy but after long hours (my eye sight isn't perfect) it makes it rather difficult to read.

The program doesn't enlarge with the default windows DPI scalier. So I was hoping there was a way to adjust it in the programs .ini or something.

[tebasuna51]

You have here a image sample in my 1080 display, I can't test diferent resolution or text size in screen configuration. BTW you have the source .au3 and autoit is free, modify the soft at your taste.

I don't see where to enlarge the screen size. This is way above my head :P

Do you mind use different folders for the needed programs?

I use MeGUI as standard repository for my encoders and I really don't like to put everything in eac3to folder or single folder whatsoever.

Thanks

[tebasuna51]

Maybe MeGUI can change their behavior to fit with foobar2000 and UsEac3to, and use a unique folder for audio encoders.

Remenber a path for any encoder is complex.

You could use symbolic links of your file system to set a link for the different files from the eac3to folder to your repository.
That way you could have your one tool source without any changes for any other programs you might want to use.

Is possible to fix an error (Source file not found) that UsEac3to throws when PATH to input file(s) contains cyrillic symbols?

Sorry, many options in UsEac3to work by .cmd (or .bat) files with a special set of characters.

I have, inside UsEac3to, a translation between standard european character page to this special set, but I don't know how to make other translations.

In the download there are the autoit source, try to make this yourself.

Hi, sorry my noob question... how can I get the .log of the eac3to demux using UsEac3to Gui?

[tebasuna51]

You can see the log in the main window, you can edit it, and you can save it with the 'Save Log' button in upper right corner ( in Input folder or Used Defined folder).

If you EnQueue the job the Save log is automatic.

Thanks @ tebasuna51, your information was perfect. One more question, for now, is it possible in the "Run and MkvMux" process to include the subtitles and chapters file?

[tebasuna51]

If the source is a mkv the "Run and MkvMux" preserve video, subs and chapters, only audio (1 or 2 tracks) are modified with the changed by eac3to.

If you need modify subs you need run MkvMuxer separately.

"Run and MkvMux" is ussefull for some audio recode (DTS to AC3 or AAC) for play in devices without DTS decode support.

But, using "Run and MkvMux" after the files are demuxed by eac3to, doesn't mkvmerge use these files to create the .mkv file? In my mind, the source would be the files that eac3to extracts from blu-ray, in my case. Or am I wrong in that thought?
