Hi DeanK,

One problem more : trying to build a disk from h.264/mpeg (sound) files, as I do from time to time, I got this : ac3to refuded to convert audio! And the audio track is - and was in the past - mpeg Audio Version 1 layer 2 file.
eac3to is the latest one, avisynth as well - 2.5.

Any ideas ?

Thanx in advance!

I´ll test with external audio file ... so far this is not very important for me.
Main thing for me: support of mpeg2 HDV ... and that is perfect.

Edit: made a ac3 sound file from AppleTv file (very fast) and named it after the AppleTV file. Using option "add external audio tracks" in multiAVCHD I get my working AVCHD structures.

It is not working, but it worked before - is that what you're saying? What is your file's extension - mkv/mpeg/mov/mp4?

kenguru2005 · 6th April 2009, 19:59

Ok now eac3to even refuses to convert my audio from HDV mov files ... I do not know why this is broken now.

That's exactly I want to say. The file extension is as usually - .ts. It's a satellite receiver h.264 file with the mpeg sound, converted to .ts format with the usually used h.264 cutter.

kenguru2005 · 6th April 2009, 21:12

Btw.

since today I get this one:

Can you check agian? And can you send me again a sample of your HDV3 mov files?

There is a file multiAVCHD.pid - if present - multiAVCHD thinks that another instance is running.

ramonchin · 6th April 2009, 21:25

Can be avoid technical title info on thumbnail menu? I prefer menus withou that info.

Thanks.

Can you try again? I think I fixed it.

Use [x] Title names only (XMB) in AUTHOR tab.

I did a lot of changes today - probably I broke something.

pid file should be deleted once the program closes, doesn't it?

Right... ini get's reset if you do multiple launches. I do not advice you to do so.... I fixed it just now.

kenguru2005 · 6th April 2009, 21:47

I don´t know why pid file isn´t deleted anymore ... but i`ll test, perhaps it´s fixed in 504?

No, still a pid problem in 505 ...

Is this pid problem also under windows or just a problem of virtual machines?

It gets deleted on my windows vista. And no one complained so I guess it works in win. At least the .ini will not reset anymore.

That´s right and I do appreciate this very much, thank you.

deank · 6th April 2009, 22:45

can you update manually and try?

Also, can you try the German translation from the other thread?

ramonchin · 6th April 2009, 23:17

Hi!

In "Title names editor", what's "Poster image" for? And thumbnail number?

Thanks.

tyee · 7th April 2009, 00:19

Hi Dean
I tried this app last night for the first time and after a few false starts due to me, it seemed to work, but I haven't tried to play the output on the PS3 yet because I tried to just playback the output MTS files on my computer and one set would only play the audio and not the video. The original M2TS plays fine. The other set I processed did play audio and video from the processed output folder. Anything come to mind that would cause one to play video and another not to?

PS, the one that did not play video, only audio, was an m2ts file. The files that did play fine were already in an AVCHD folder structure.

Autoupdate is not a probem here. I also did a complete download then I configured multiAVCHD from scratch. Still the problem with this .pif file. As long as it doesn´t resets my ini anymore I can live with it ....

The german translation .... I´ll test.

Take a minute to read the guide - the link is in my signature. Poster image is not implemented yet - it will be used in XMB menu for each title, instead of generating AUTO background (if thumbnail (seconds) is <>0). Thumbnail (seconds) (not number) is used for entering a second at which to extract thumbnail for XMB menu. You can hover your mouse - there are a lot of hints in the GUI.

multiAVCHD output is supposed to be used in a stand-alone-player, not on the computer and in FOLDER mode, not playing individual files. Also be sure to read the complete guide.

I asked for manual update, because sometimes I do changes to multiAVCHD, but not to the build number, so autoupdate will not update your .exe, but multiUPDATE will.

Oh, ok .... I will do a manual update this evening ... perhaps pid problem has gone as unexpected as it came.
