You are right, your testDTS.wav is a correct 5.1 channel 48 KHz, seems a bug in eac3to, don't detect is a dtswav and split the file like the wav header info (2 ch, 16 bit).

If you rename the file to testDTS.dts you can decode, resample and split in monowavs with BeHappy.

You can also convert the dtswav to dts with:
BeSplit -core( -input testDTS.wav -prefix xxx_ -type dtswav -fix )
The xxx_01.dstwav obtained work now with eac3to.

Is there a Front End Gui?

Has anyone done a front end for eac3to? It would sure be useful.

Thanks for the Link!

Madshi, I am indeed on 2.41. Tonight I ripped an HD-DVD movie and ALSO got no frame count ->

Code:

eac3to v2.41, freeware by madshi.net
Hope that helps track it down! I do not think this is the video doing it...

P.S. On the M2TS the video was a bit hashed during the credits. The rest of the movie appears fine but I need to umm watch it all the way through to be sure. Do not think this is from eac3to but thought I'd mention it, only noticed it when checking the X264 compressed version, not yet checked original. The BD went from 29Gig to 7.5Gig and I thought surely there was a problem since I transcode at VERY high quality. Odd.... <shrug>

madshi, something is wrong with eac3to 2.41 or the following is expected behavior:

when tried to decode the TrueHD track from Resident Evil Extinction Blu-ray that is demuxed with xport 1.01, eac3to 2.41 says:

Quote:
C:\eac3to241>eac3to G:\bits0001.mpa G:\evil.wavs
The format of the source file could not be detected.
but everything is OK and exactly the same file decodes fine using eac3to 2.29:

TrueHD/AC3, 5.1 channels, 48khz

This audio track contains more than 16 bit of information.
and when with eac3to 2.41 tried:

the error you are talking about is generated:

eac3to v2.42 released

http://madshi.net/eac3to.zip

Code:
* added support for 16bit DTSWAV files
* fixed: Blu-Ray TrueHD support was broken
No samples required for the "[libav] Stream parameters not seen; skipping frame" problem. Should be fixed now.

The only WAVDTS sample I had was 14bit, so eac3to's WAVDTS support was limited to 14bit files. The new sample is 16bit. Added support for that in v2.42 now.

got a problem with a 1280x1024 mpeg2 29.97 fps .ts file regarding audio sync. the video is being mistaken by eac3to as 24p and there are as well audio gaps (basically for half of all seconds of the movie/sample duration). the problem is that even when using the gaps file at the 2nd run and even when forcing -60i the audio is still a little out of sync.
made a little sample (unfortunately you most likely wont be able to test sync with that as theres not much dialogue in the movie):

I've just found the weirdest thing I've ever come across. I ripped my copy of the HD-DVD Ocean's Thirteen a while back. Everything was fine and then I discovered there are supposed to be forced subtitles so, recently I ripped it again as eac3to can now grab the subtitles and chapters. I went through the process of converting the audio to flac, muxing the flac, chapters and subtitles to a new mkv file and playing it back. After a little messing around I was able to get the subs working just fine.....and then I noticed that I couldn't really hear any dialogue!

I checked my center speaker and it was definitely working. When there's music playing the center channel seems to be working OK, but any time there's dialogue you can hardly hear it. I tried other movies and they are working fine. It's like the center channel has been seriously attenuated, or perhaps it's something to do with dialnorm not being removed? I don't really know - I'm just throwing ideas around. The graph I create in graphedit is the same as every other movie with VC1 video & flac audio. The only difference is the inclusion of the VS filter for the subs. However, I tried the graph without the VS filter and it made no difference to the center channel problem.

I did the recent rip using eac3to v2.40. I've just upgraded to v2.42 so I'm going to go through the whole rip & remux process again to see if it makes a difference, but if anyone has any ideas in the meantime, or has experienced something similar, I'd be glad to hear from you.

I loaded one of those Japanese HDTV captures into eac3to and it says:

OK, re-ripped and tested several scenarios using eac3to v2.42 and now audio, video & subs are working normally. Don't really know what the problem was, but it's sorted out now.

Hi,
run them through TSRemux first. I got a successful method figured out which works reliable (for me).

Im having a problem with a truehd file its from Spider-man 2 it comes up with libav Lossless check failed- expected 5a, calculated 2f and it goes on from there with other check failed.

So what might be the problem here? I have tried this with a buddys copy of Spider-man 2 and get the same results.

Plus this is the only movie i have ever had a problem with.

Thanks a lot Madshi for the great tool! So far all non-branching BD .m2ts files I've run through have been flawless and totally straightforward. Good work!

I know Madshi said he plans to add a merge feature for branching titles. In the meantime, does anyone have a recommendation for how to do seamless branching titles?

I tried merging the files with tssplitter but that resulted in an .m2ts file with an error in it (the player won't seek past the merge point and eac3to reports a corrupt file). I was wondering whether using eac3to on the separate files, then copy /b the video.mkv files together (same for audio) before merging with mkvmerge, would work? Other approaches?

Thanks!
