Using eac3to and its gui(which ive done successfully numerous times before on seamless branching titles-this one is the ext.cut of KK) ive encountered this error message whilst remuxing the dtshd to lpcm(for my pch a100)
"The temp file could not be interpreted correctly"..eac3to correctly identifies the audio overlaps..
[a05] Audio overlaps for 11ms at playtime 1:14:09.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 7ms at playtime 1:16:59.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 6ms at playtime 1:38:53.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 9ms at playtime 2:09:19.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 6ms at playtime 2:46:16.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 8ms at playtime 2:46:38.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 11ms at playtime 2:53:16.
[a05] Audio overlaps for 10ms at playtime 3:14:19
but then stops with the aforementioned error message and produces no .lpcm output just a log with the error meassage.
The same has also just happened with Close Encounters(seamless branching too)
Ive tried with eac3to latest and older versions also.
I use the sonic decoder.
Anyone help please??

It means that the TrueHD track doesn't begin as it should begin technically, but eac3to works around that problem. TrueHD tracks consist of major and non-major frames. Usually a track begins with a major frame.

Need to see the full eac3to log. From v3.01, please.

Sorry madshi unfortunately 3.01 doesnt produce a log when i ask it to convert dtshd to lpcm from the seamless branching titles(both Close Encounters and King Kong).It merely fails with the aforementioned error message though unlike eac3to 2.87(which did produce a log) it keeps the lpcm file with the extension of pass1.lpcm...thus to summarise..
2.87-builds the lpcm file from the dtshd but then deletes it at the point of the required second pass leaving only a log file with the error message "The temp file could not be interpreted correctly"
3.01-also builds the lpcm file but also fails at the point of the second pass leaving no log file but an lpcm file e.g. "CEDirCutdtshdto.pass1.lpcm"
Here is the log from 2.87..
Code:
eac3to v2.87

hello, i am new to eac3to

here is sample http://www.mediafire.com/file/kynimztnjwe/333_0_0.ts (~65mb), duration is 3mn 34s, but after i demux it with eac3to, its only few seconds
here is log http://www.paste.lt/paste/092a823690...e882c9b04966a3
it says The source file is encrypted. <WARNING>, but its not encrypted


here is another 2 samples with many errors http://www.mediafire.com/file/iqom3m...th_errors_2.ts (10mb) and http://www.mediafire.com/?zumjnyzywdy (24mb)
after i dumux them, audio is few seconds shorter then mediainfo reported on TS. is this normal?


can this tool repair video? thank you.

Your posted File (65mb-Sample) ist damaged during BAD-Signal or missing decryption for a short moment. Possibly recorded over DVB-S ?

Try to repair it with Project-X or something else.
Because of this error eac3to thinks its encrypted. Maybe there is realy a single Frame where decryption failed. I dont know if this TV-Broadcaster encypts.

Normaly something like this is not repairable. Best is to delete the damaged part and keep the rest.

eac3to can not repair such errors.

It's not possible to go from DTSWAV -> DTS without some type of conversion, is it?

Do you mean w/o dts encoding? It is possible. Just do eac3to input.wav output.dts. If the wav is dtswav then the wav header will be stripped and you'll get raw dts file.

P.S maybe you need -768 if your dtswav is 768kbps, but i'm not sure.

Hello Madshi,

Found a strange error with 3.01 whilst remuxing two VC1 HD-DVDs I had, Shaun Of The Dead and Motorhead Stage Fright.

Demuxing the video stream (and removing pulldown) with 3.01 produces an un-usable file reported as 8168:6118p in TSMUXER. No problem at all with 2.87 and the same file/settings - reported as 1920:1080p in TSMUXER.

In case this was a problem with TSMUXER, I tried to play the VC1 stream with DGVC1DECNV which resulted in the video driver crashing. Again, no problems with the VC1 stream demuxed with 2.87.

Hi!

I know nothing about this software but I see that line 4 of the two logs include different values - 480i48 and 480i60...

I am having the same problem with Apollo 13, and another title, but I don't have 2.87 to test with that.

I can confirm it. After demuxing the VC-1 track muxing the first 100MB of the EVOs then muxing it with mkvmerge, libavcodec (from ffdshow r2594) crashes as soon as the file starts playing. MPC-HC r969 (internal VC-1 decoder with DXVA enabled) plays it until you stop the video, upon which it also crashes.

I can confirm that vc1 pulled from Bourne Ultimatum hd-dvd also shows up as 8168x6188 res, and won't play in anything when muxed in tsmuxer.

"Profile Advanced@3:Resolution: 8168:6118p Frame rate 23.976"

This is with version 3.01.

Thanks for the samples, but as mbcd already hinted, these files seem to be severely damaged, or maybe only partially decrypted. eac3to can not repair any such errors. It can only skip over errors. Which means that if the source is so much damaged, the output of eac3to can be much shorter than the source file claims to be. There's nothing I can do about that. eac3to's error tolerance just means that *minor* errors in a source file are properly ignored now (not repaired). If you have a really strongly damaged source file, just trash and rerecord.

P.S maybe you need -768 if your dtswav is 768kbps, but i'm not sure.
The switch is not necessary. eac3to never reencodes, unless you ask it to.

Normally eac3to does detect dtswav automatically, but there are cases where the detection does not work. Maybe I can improve on that in a future version. For now you can use DtsParser to convert dtswav files to dts. And eac3to can then in any case decode them (if needed).

@madshi,
This is an aesthetic issue so no hurry, but I noticed that v3 overrides the DOS window's color settings. Would you consider not overriding this please? Thank you.

I am using eac3to to recode DTS or EAC3 and then tsmuxer to mux to m2ts and then to Handbrake. Handbrake no longer crashes, but handbrake sees the video as 2x the length it should be. If I open the bluray stream direct, I don't have the problem, but I can't read the audio. I have a small EVO file, 65 megs, unilogo.evo, that I use to test, and eac3to 3.03 doesn't seem to work with it. I can upload the file somewhere if you like.

For starters, you need to use -keeppulldown with Motörhead Stagefright. It's not a 24p encoding.

I have a raw h264 stream that was encoded using x264 with the following avs script:

Code:
DirectShowSource("C:\Personal\Videos\sample.mkv", fps=23.976, audio=false)
Spline64Resize(1280,720)
When I take the raw h264 and mux to mkv using eac3to v3.03 it is reported as 23 fps.

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mj1tuomhmul

Code:
eac3to v3.03
command line: eac3to "C:\Personal\Videos\sample-output.h264" "C:\Personal\Videos\sample-output.mkv"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
h264/AVC, 720p23 (16:9)
Muxing video to Matroska...
Added fps value to MKV header.
Video track 1 contains 256 frames.
eac3to processing took 1 second.
Done.
