BeSweet LST

Pardon me if I act somewhat stupid here but how do I get BeSweet to process a number of VOBs instead of one? I tried the SmartRipper .LST format as input file and that didn't fly (apparently coudn't interpret it).

Then I looked at 'Example.LST' in the BeSweet zip and that sure doesn't look like it would combine multiple VOBs.

So how do you extract from multiple VOBs -> MP2?

And yes - I read the guide.

I use version 0.81. I use the SmartRipper fromat LST file.

It looks like this:

J:\xyz\vts_03_1.vob
J:\xyz\vts_03_2.vob
J:\xyz\vts_03_3.vob
J:\xyz\vts_03_4.vob

I see that this doesn't match the Example.lst file but Example.lst doesn't show me how to take multiple VOBs and generate ONE MP2.

I am missing something here, I know.

Please note that I edited my previous post.

two way to slove this

1) make a list in BeSweet's list format :
-core( -input J:\xyz\vts_03_1.vob )
-core( -input J:\xyz\vts_03_2.vob )
-core( -input J:\xyz\vts_03_3.vob )
-core( -input J:\xyz\vts_03_4.vob )


2) Download BeSweet v0.9beta that suPports SmartRippers' List.

Very good. I downloaded 0.9 and that appears to do the trick. It works fine if I extract substream 0x80. (I didn't let the whole thing complete but it appeared to work fine).

When I tried to extract substream 0x81 (and there is a track 2, I extracted it using DVD2AVI) it died after a few seconds (it started extraction, though). Track 2 is only 2 Channel (not 5.1).

Does that mean anything? I guess this isn't even part of your code but somewhere in Azid. I played a bit with the Azid options with little success.

Anyhow, this is a neat tool. Now that SmartRipper generates the D2V file on the fly there really isn't a need to run it through DVD2AVI at all (using BeSweet).

It would be able to use DS (which I prefer to the downmix).

If you need a smaple of the failing data I can probably get it to you (if you have broadband).

Took me a bit to get to this. After all, it's Xmas .

I tried both of the following:

a.) Demux with BBDMUX and feeding it into AZID. Worked fine.
b.) Demux using DVD2AVI and feeding it into AZID. Worked fine.

Both times I used subchannel 0x81.

Then I ran BeSweet on subchannel 0x81 and after a brief start it dies. (As I said, no problems with subchannel 0x80).

I ran it against a VOB of 1GB. I can truncate the thing if this helps.

One more question: Does BeSweet take the audio offset of the AC3 substream into consideration?

can you post a slice of the ac3 file you demuxed ? (use ac3 split or something..)

(ATM) no. that should be taken care on Vdub or Ndub.

AC3split? Having a little trouble locating this util.

Can you help?

As for the offset - I am going to SVCD and can compensate for that when muxing. Does BeSweet spitt the offset out somewhere?

AVIAC3SPLIT requires an AVI input file. Not sure what to specify there. It is not clear to me what it spits out, either.

I can just truncate the file with a filesplitter. Will that do?

I posted the file but the post has disappeared. The file was 1MB, but the server said it would accept 1MB. Should I try again?
