New eac3to GUI: HD-DVD/Blu-Ray Stream Extractor - Page 15

I've been using the SVN version for ages now, and it works pretty well (as long as you don't try and do two discs in a row). But the 0.5 version is, umm, unusable basically.

Could you edit the first post and make it much more obvious that the SVN version is the one to download please?

And thanks for this application. It makes eac3to much easier, and does 90% of what eac3to will do, yet it's simple and user-friendly (unlike the other gui I tried).

Cheers

Mark

Yes, I've been meaning to clean up the downloads and promote SVN to 0.6 (or whatever) ... I'll try to do it this week but I will make a quick edit of the 1st post to make sure people are downloading the SVN for now.

Real life work plays the bills... it will get done though...

Thanks.

I would really like to get this program working as it is the only GUI I am aware of that supports MKV video and FLAC audio. The author of ClownBD, for some reason, thinks it unimportant to support the FLAC audio conversion. In my mind this is the key benefit of conversion. After all, the video remains the same just in a different container and DRM-free.

I get this problem very infrequently (<5%). For me, when I get it, it talks about a missing sync byte. On the most recent one that I got (John Adams Disc 1 Part 2) it happened on command line as well (and I did not check this in any other case). This makes sense since all the GUI does (I think) is to generate a command line and then execute it.

The fix that I found was to uncheck "Prohibited User Operations", "Remove Annoying Adverts and Trailers" and "BD Live" in AnyDVD. With this done I did not get the discontinuity. Note that it played though the area of the discontinuity just fine in TMT with or without these options checked.

Note that the problem is not limited to eac3to. I also got something similar with MakeMKV.

Thanks! Somewhere in the dark depths of my memory I recall there being issues with those settings. I suspect those settings are only useful when using AnyDVD to rip to ISO or folders. I'll check and report back.

Trying out your tool, but keeps crashing, error here:

It crashes on any movie i try, and doesn't even load when i try to load a HD-DVD.

Also, why is there a size difference when using TsMuxer to rip movie/audio track only?

Thanks

I would like to request an enahcement - I would love for this to have the option of after creating the individual files to auto do the MKV Merge. Any ideas on this? Also being to batch / queue jobs would be great..

Hi!

You do know, don't you, that you have to either first rip/decrypt your media, or have "AnyDVD HD" running in the background?

Greif · 28th June 2009, 21:24

@mikelebron - you can queue jobs using MeGUI. unless eac3to plans on supporting it, I dont see me adding MKV muxing as a feature.

The movie is already ripped/decryped and already was stripped of movie only/audio only using tsMuxer which is still in blu-ray folder format...was just testing out this tool, which keeps erroring out.

does eac3to work at the commandline?

Basically eac3to IS a command line tool.
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=125966

This thread is about a GUI for eac3to.

Greif · 29th June 2009, 12:17

@BRazil2: ... Yes I know eac3to is a commandline tool. If you check the first post of this thread, you'll notice I wrote this GUI. I was asking <>< if what he was trying to do works using eac3to rather than the GUI.

Yes the command line works fine, it's the GUI that causes a critical error.

I tried 10 times, 9 of those times it got a critical error I pasted above, 1 time it actually went through its scan and let me view the streams and select the output method (TXT,MKV, FLAC) and was output into mkv container w/ flac audio as I wanted.

For Blu-rays it errors out after it reaches 100% for the stream scan, for HD DVDs it errors out right after I click on the "Features" link to get the movie info. Again, sometimes it completes the scan and lets me view the streams and select the output, but it fails 9 out of 10 times.

using the SVN build linked on the first post of your thread.

Thanks

Greif · 29th June 2009, 14:15

@<><: so it's failing on the retrieval of the features.

Is that code-snippet you posted earler from the GUI or eac3to?

Code:

eac3to v3.16
command line: "C:\eac3to\eac3to.exe" "\\tower\disk1\English Movies\310 to Yuma [Blu-Ray]" 1) -progressnumbers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
M2TS, 1 video track, 1 audio track, 2:02:30, 24p /1.001
1: Chapters, 25 chapters
2: VC-1, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: RAW/PCM, English, 7.1 channels, 16 bits, 48khz

If it's not directly from eac3to, can you show me the following output?

Code:

eac3to.exe "\\tower\disk1\English Movies\310 to Yuma [Blu-Ray]" 1) -progressnumbers

Thanks.

Hello, I'm using with success the last svn of this program. I have problems only with DTS ES 6.1 tracks ( generally seamless branching from Pixar ); in this case I can't select DTS and I select wav, with sometime problems muxing with TsMuxer. Is it a problem of the gui or maybe of eac3to 3.16?

I have installed arcsoft decoder, nero7 and surcode.

Many thanks in advance to all

Greif · 14th July 2009, 02:51

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been busy at work and I recently installed Windows 7 RC on my home machine. When the RTM of Windows 7 is released - which I think will be tomorrow

- I'll reinstall VS2K8 and get my project up and running again.

Updated to 0.6. This version is a very quick update that fixes the stream "extrac as" combo boxes and some of the audio types.

more to come soon.

QUEENFAN · 26th August 2009, 08:52

Hi,

how can I get ONE EVO (out of a HD-DVD without copy-protection ;-) containing just the audio-stream(s) I want and chapters/subtitles?

Thanks a lot for this tool.
