There are several kinds of DTS tracks: DTS, DTS High Res, DTS Master Audio & DTS Express. Maybe even more.
Some of them have a normal DTS (like on DVD) core. This one is used if "use dts core" is checked. There is no conversion - just the normal DTS core is used. If "use untouched audio" is checked all other audio settings are ignored.

Awesome tool _hawk_

Just a small suggestion (brought about by something I ran into today)!

I was processing my Xmas gift "The Dark Knight" and realised (because I've watched it!) that scenes change from AR 2.35 to 16:9 and back ....

This played havoc with "AutoCrop" that kept randomly getting 2.35 frames and wanted to crop ... Sure, at the time I fixed it by going Setting > Advanced Options > AutoCrop Settings > "Enabled" Edit AutoCrop values by hand and then waited for AutoCrop to be run to manually set cropping to 0,0,0,0 ...

Anyway, my suggestion was perhaps having a setting within the "Advanced Options" > "AutoCrop Settings" to "DISABLE" autocrop, or (if wanting to prevent clutter) when a zero (0) is entered in "Number of frames to analyze" it is automatically disabled (I thought I would be smart and try zero, but it throws an error when Autocrop is invoked and it causes the entire conversion to hault!) ...

Keep up the good work _hawk_, this is definately one of the best GUIs for BD conversion!!

Is there any chance of an example plugin and/or some quick plugin documentation.

Thanks

I will release a "autoref plugin" soon (change --ref according to resolution after autocrop).
When I find time I'll add some short documentation.

Can BluRip 0.5.2 use 64 bit DGDecodeNV.dll? Or 32 bit only?

Happy New Year _hawk_!

I have used and *loved* BluRip on my Vista 32 bit system for just under a year. What a fantastic tool! And it's wonderful how quickly you add suggested features, fix bugs, and answer user questions. Thanks so much!

I finally upgraded my media system to Win7 64 to take advantage of all of its RAM. While reinstalling BluRip and all of its external tools, I've been getting the latest 64 bit versions wherever possible.

Demuxing goes fine, and completes successfully. I've installed and set the paths to all of my external tools. When I get to AutoCrop, I get this error:

[1/2/2011 11:58:53 AM] Starting AutoCrop...
[1/2/2011 11:58:54 AM] Exception: LoadPlugin: unable to load "C:\Software\DGDecNV\DGDecodeNV.dll"
(E:\Videos\~~BDRawFiles\The Covenant (2006)\Temp\The Covenant (2006)_cropTemp.avs, line 1)

DGDecodeNV.dll (64 bit version) is installed in the specified directory, and I have a current license for it.

Should I be using the 32 bit version instead? And if so, I know you have lots of enhancement requests, but is there a chance BluRip will use the 64 bit version in the future?

Many thanks!

Atm you will need 32bit avisynth and 32bit avisynth plugins (e.g. ffmpegsrc).
You can use the 64bit x264 with avs2yuv (its a bit faster then the 32bit this way).
I will try if a complete 64bit support will be faster. I would need to rewrite the avisynth wrapper dll then.

:thanks:

Many thanks _hawk_! I'll switch back to the 32 bit versions (I'm already using the 64 bit avs2yuv suggestion) and keep an eye out for a full 64 bit BluRip, if you decide it makes sense to code one.

Again, happy new year, and thanks for the great tool!

Because development has pretty much stalled with Haali I've moved to MPC-HC, aka Gabest, splitter on my system. It's more actively developed and works perfectly for BluRay playback. However, I realized today that BluRip won't demux with anything but Haali. Is this a bug with my system or a limitation of BluRip?

I think eac3to needs haali. You can disable demuxing to mkv under advanced video options of the video track. There might be problems indexing the video file then.

Where should it be created? I assume within the program's installation directory, under the "Program Files (x86)" directory.

No, it was not created.

I would be very grateful if you could describe how to create it by hand, and disable the skinning, in order to use standard widgets/controls.

Thank you very much in advance.

The settings.xml is created in AppData\Roaming\BluRip.
The folder and the settings file should get created at first start. If not I can send you an empty one.

When you say problems indexing the video file, what does that mean? How do I check for it? I'd like to run a test with a movie I've successfully ripped to determine if there will be a problem.

I had problems to open a vc-1 file with ffmpgsrc. But it's a long time ago and maybe current builds don't have any problems.

I know that Another EAC3To GUI would not work properly without Haali (my guess eac3to requires this as Hawk mentioned). I ended up installing Haali but just blocked it on any applications that I use for playback (using Gabest instead)

No.

Not even the directory BluRip is created under Roaming - I assume we are talking about my user's AppData directory.

So I will create it by hand, and create by hand a text file named settings.xml.

What should I put there (in code tags please) to disable any form of custom skins/controls/widgets, and use the Windows default ones?

A couple suggestions.
-Remove the sound when muxing starts or make it toggable and disabled by default. I don't see why it would important to know by sound when muxing starts.
-Show the "|" character when clicking in the path. I use the path to faster set the target filename, thought without "|" it's hard to select the text with the keyboard.

Yeah, this is the route I ended up taking as well. Thanks dbone.

PS - I just posted on the eac3to thread about using Gabest instead of Haali. I'm not counting on it, but thought I'd ask anyway.

Could you please add the option to disable subtitle header compression too? It seems hardware players have problems with that.

Yes, I can add this.
Is this a new mkvmerge feature? I thought header compression was only for audio & video.
