Just that test, I guess, but like renethx said... for the sake of completeness . It's really not practically important, at least for now (who knows if when broadcasters start using DD+ some of them won't use 7.1), but it's just been annoying me that apparently I'm the only one having this problem.

Nevcairiel, i read with interest on P143 your testing of containers / codecs especially the issues with MKV's produced using mkvmerge and DTS. Are there any issues with DD+ and LPCM in MKV (I see you tested on TS but not MKV)?
The reason I ask is I've still got to convert my old HD-DVD's to a more friendly format (most have DD+ but some have DTS-HD), and to date non of the GUI options grab me as ideal: 1) TS or BD Stucture (eg Clown_BD): Get to keep any subs in PGS but all DD+ will be converted to DTS or LPCM 2) MKV (eg AnotherEAC3toGUI): Uses mkvmerge and the GUI seem to want to convert both the DD+ track to something else and the PGS subs get converted to VOBSUB This is a task I want to do once so thanks for the testing as I had no idea of the issues with mkvmerge! |

I'm getting static with DTS-HD MA 2.0 and the Arcsoft dll. The LAV decoder status says "dts" only. 5.1 and 7.1 work fine with LAV. The Arcsoft decoder does decode 2.0 OK.
This is an audio mka sample, it's the same with mkv videos. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CSCFJ85R |

What issues with 6.1, btw? The latest version, 1.1.0.8, decodes 6.1 just fine, except that it double the back center to both back left and right (making it 7.1) - but me personally, since i dont have a back-center anyway, thats welcome. Quote:

Sorry, that sample is only DTS 2.0, there's another title with the same video but DTS-HD MA 2.0 audio so I mixed them up. The following sample (different one) is DTS-HD MA 2.0 with the surround flag on. This static problem also happens with this sample.
Also, bitstreaming this sample, people with Pioneer receivers can check if their receivers need a firmware update. Receivers like mine (VSX-01) and as new as the 2010 generation (VSX-21 and others) are reported to have this issue. This is rare audio, as far as I know only recently available with Criterion releases of older stereo movies. It's not the same as regular DTS-HD MA 2.0, which works correctly. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QDXF3P2V |

Doubling the back centre to make 7.1 is perfect. What does 1.1.0.7 do? Last edited by Mark_A_W; 14th May 2011 at 08:45. |

It decodes fine now, though. The problem was that the ArcSoft decoder is outputting 16-bit for that file, and that totally confused my code. Edit: Your actual HD file works, too.

nevcairiel, thanks for that great dts addition!
I have a question about TrueHD. LAV Audio requires TrueHD subtype from a splitter to decode TrueHD and LAV Splitter gives it. But Haali and Gabest splitters send TrueHD with AC3 subtypes and in this case LAV Audio decoding fails. Could you please fix this if it doesn't require a lot of rework? |

The only thing they have in common is that both are Dolby products... It'll be fixed eventually, but not so soon. Quote:

I dunno why it converts the Subs to VOBSUB, PGS is fine in MKV .. on another note, doesn't HD-DVD use extended VOBSUBs, and not PGS?
Anyhow, you could also use FLAC in MKV. PS: The DTS in MKV by mkvmerge "problem" isn't really a problem, its just not perfect. I have been thinking about just turning the logic off for DTS in MKV, or at least relaxing it even more. Not that it bothers me much, i think i have 2 actual MKVs with DTS-HD, i usually keep all my HD movies either as BD structure or just keep them on the BD disc.

I was under the understanding the HD-DVD also used PGS but the format was a slightly different implementation and the clownBD calls BDSup2Sub (".sup" "/res:1080") to convert the extracted Subtitle.SUP file to one of a similar size that is then muxed back in.

What i could find on the topic is that HD-DVD either uses default DVD VOBSUBs, or an extended version with more colors.
