Pointless from the perspective of preserving the dtshdma stream. But there are other use cases where core dts to flac might be useful. For example, someone wishing to convert to a fully freetard format would have to ditch the dts for something "free" and flac would be a good choise for that.

I've been converting my movie files with TrueHD to FLAC16 using vidcoder and want to verify the channel maps are correct. I've noticed when analyzing FLAC files with mediainfo, it simply says:
Channel(s) : 8 channels Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Bit depth : 16 bits Where the original files with TrueHD say: Channel(s) : 8 channels / 6 channels Channel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R, Back: L R, LFE / Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Bit depth : 16 bits Is it safe to assume they are mapped properly and/or is there a way to check? |

Released VidCoder 2.0 Beta:
The Beta train continues! I've switched to a different versioning scheme: The major number increases for each stable HandBrake version and the minor number increases for each Beta release and bugfix release. * Added pickers! Pickers let you automatically choose titles, audio, subtitles and destination, as well as automatically queue or start encodes when a source is loaded. While encoding presets customize how a file is encoded, pickers control what is included in the file and where it goes. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to see added to the Picker window. * Added a collapsible left panel to the Encoding Preset window, to switch presets quickly. * Changed window placement to open new windows dynamically in open areas rather than in preset locations. |

Add codec packs for h264 Yify small encodes
I lurk at the Vidcoder site and have it installed. Recently I saw some tips (2013 I guess) on the secrets of making small encodes to Handbrake.
The how-to includes some codecs to load via a Handbrake option. How is that handled in the Vidcoder releases? Please explain how to open those installation options in Vidcoder. Also if you could critique the article for accuracy, it would help this novice avoid useless techniques: https://ericolon.wordpress.com/2013/...or-any-device/ |

Any chance you could raid the powerful filter set from the discontinued AutoMKV?
In particular I'm looking for MVDegrain3 and FRFun7 (those two are an awesome tag-team combo on grainbomb films, though I would of course not be adverse to anything newer). |

Question about 3D, does vidcoder by default convert 3D to 2D. I loaded up my Shrek 1 3D Bluray and converted it the way I always do using a constant quality of 16. The resulting video looks excellent and is in 2D. Well on a 2D monitor and TV looks like 2D and neither player is a 3D player. The mediainfo for the mkv file has only one video source and says all the normal stuff whereas the mediainfo for the 3D stream off the bluray is definitely different. multiple video sources with the word "stereo" in there. I'm assuming the first video source is a 2D video souce (the second stereo is what makes it 3D) and therefore vidcoder just copies the first source?
mkv file Video ID : 1 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : High@L4.1 Format settings, CABAC : Yes Format settings, ReFrames : 4 frames Codec ID : V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC Duration : 1h 30mn Width : 1 920 pixels Height : 1 080 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate mode : Constant Frame rate : 23.976 fps Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Progressive Title : H.264_CQ16_1080p Bluray m2ts file Video #1 ID : 4113 (0x1011) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : High@L4.1 Format settings, CABAC : Yes Format settings, ReFrames : 3 frames Codec ID : 27 Duration : 1s 1ms Bit rate mode : Variable Maximum bit rate : 40.0 Mbps Width : 1 920 pixels Height : 1 080 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 23.976 fps Standard : NTSC Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Progressive Color range : Limited Video #2 ID : 4114 (0x1012) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : Stereo High@L4.1 MultiView_Count : 2 Format settings, CABAC : Yes Format settings, ReFrames : 3 frames Codec ID : 32 Duration : 1s 1ms Bit rate mode : Variable Maximum bit rate : 40.0 Mbps Width : 1 920 pixels Height : 1 080 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 23.976 fps Standard : NTSC Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Progressive Color range : Limited |

Released VidCoder 2.2 Beta:
Updated HandBrake SVN to 7149, which uses the new JSON API. This changes the way every encode setting is sent to the HandBrake core, so please kick the tires on this one! |

I'd like to use Vidcoder to burn subtitles to a MP4 by NOT converting the video and audio tracks. Ofc the video track needs to be modified but I dont want it to be more compressed or converted in any way because it is as good as it is.
Is this possible with Vidcoder? I did not find any option just to copy the video and audio tracks. Thanks. |

You can not "burn" (hardsub) subtitles without recompressing video. You can mux subtitle (softsub) without recompressing video. But for that you will need mp4box, not VidCoder as VidCoder (or HandBrake) does not support video passthrough.

A new feature suggestion: Add PAL<>NTSC (25fps<>23/976fps) retiming options with two checkboxes (for video and audio). This will re-encode audio to the new time and re-stream video (if also checked) to the desired frame-rate. (Including video-restreaming would save users an additional step with MKV Merge.)
