It could be the filters, I have a free program from River Past called direct show detective, it polls the machine collects a list of what is installed. I could run it and post the results here if it would help. I wouldn't know what I was looking at, sorry. |

Just watched the whole wedding scene. No problem. Did you rewrite the timestamps with mkvmerge? mkvmerge introduces rainbow frames on some tiltes |

No gaps or overlaps present in The Matrix with v2.18, with or without pulldown. I'll set the other two movies of the trilogy to extracting overnight, but I doubt anything will appear there. I did notice that the -stripPulldown ran 23 minutes faster this time.

Madshi,
Bad news. I just did a fresh re-rip of POTO (US HDDVD version). Followed by EVO-->MKV (via the following command line: eac3to pevob_1+pevob_2 movie.mkv). When completed played the subsequent MKV file in MPC (no sound) and still had major macroblocking/rainbow effect. Is there anything else you would like me to try? |

Hi. Thanks for this app Madshi, first!! Saves me a lot of time.
But...i encountered some problems (to me, particularly). I'm using eac3to with eac3togui to decode my DVD-Audio MLP files to Wav for two reasons: PowerDVD (the only player who reads DVD-A) is not using KernelStreaming, what i use in Foobar2000 for better sound quality; and the downmixes options of PowerDVD are very bad to me, and i need them since i don't have a multispeaker system, only stereo. I like to see downmix option in eac3to..., but...why ProLogic II???? Seems to be horrible for me. Why not a simple sum of channels? Could you add a more flexible Downmix option like a independent volume change in every channel? Or minimum a sum of channels and an 8 or 9 db attenuate option (for all channels at same time for saturating mix avoid)????? Something like this: FL' = FL + C + LFE + SL FR' = FR + C + LFE + SR plus -9db (attenuate) for every single channel...or better...independent control volumes for such one!!! This part is important to avoid mix clipping. This is what i want. No rare downmixing like prologic who sounds strange to my ears... I don't want to use SoundForge anymore for downmixing stuff... Another thing, for the Eac3toGui author. Can you add for source MLP files??? I'm really tired of re-naming my MLP files to THD or DTSHD to be accepted by this Gui!!!!! Thanks. Víctor, from Argentina (sorry my bad english..) Last edited by bertox; 26th January 2008 at 05:14. |

You don't need to (and probably shouldn't) rewrite timestamps for VC-1 movies, anymore, when using eac3to v2.18 or newer. Of course you can still add audio tracks and subtitles. But no timestamp rewriting for VC-1, anymore, please. It will most probably not improve things, the chance is bigger than it will screw things up. With eac3to v2.18 the timestamps should be as good as possibly can. Plus the fps is added to the MKV header now, too. So there's no benefit whatsoever that timestamp rewriting could bring, as far as I can see. Of course things are different for MPEG2 and h264 movies right now cause I'm still using the Haali splitter for those which is giving out funny timestamps sometimes...

Because no receiver on earth can properly reconstruct the channels from such a simple sum of channels. Quote:

Please reread my post. I clearly said: "Of course you can still add audio tracks and subtitles". But you should not rewrite timestamps. Do you understand the difference? You can add audio tracks and subtitles with mkvtoolnix without rewriting the timestamps, you know?

eac3to v2.19 released
http://madshi.net/eac3to.zip Code:
* fixed h264 bitstream parsing of framerate information format * fixed (again) muxing of some rare VC-1 titles like e.g. POTO USA |

Thanks, again, for the update.
* Regarding POTO, you didn't ask intomed what renderer is using... * Regarding downmix... It's fine i think. But you could also add upmix with dolby prologic II (any source --> 5.1) or/and dolby prologic IIx (any source --> 7.1). |

Downmixing is quite easy to do. Upmixing is much more complicated, as far as I know. I don't know how to do this properly, so I better don't even try. Furthermore I've more important things to do like e.g. adding my own splitter for MPEG2 and h264 movies to get perfect timestamps for those, too. And finally adding Blu-Ray support sooner or later (not too soon, though). |

Today I will redo all titles with problems I talked about before. Writing a detailed report on problems for you. Should I use both 2.19 and 2.14? Or is it enough to count on 2.19? |
