Mux mpeg2+ac3+mp2

[ApPojken]

Anyone knows a command line based application that can do this? I was looking at mplex1.exe but it doesn't support multiple audio tracks.

Thanks!

muxman ?

but it can build vob (by command line) ... or ImagoMPEG-Muxer ... but don't know if is "command line ready"

Do you mean this (http://www.mpucoder.com/Muxman/CapMuxDir17p03.jpg) app?

Doesn't look like it is a command line tool. More like a author tool.

What are you trying to achieve?

If it is to mux video/ac3/mp2 together and create a DVD then muxman is the way to go.

[ApPojken]

I am trying to mux video/ac3/mp2 but not to create a DVD. They will be streamed from cable TV. (muxed mpeg files, not VOB)

I will set up this all in an automated procedure and all other steps are completed. It is just the muxing I thought I could use mplex for. I could probably create my own code but want to avoid reinventing the wheel so to speak.

ImagoMPEG muxer has a CLI ... ;)

Thank you, danpos. Just had a quick look at the app. Seams to be doing the work.

I don't know or am not sure what mplex1.exe is, but mplex works for me.

I believe I will not get slapped if I say that an Mpeg file may not be a vob, but a vob file is always a mpeg file.

I am not a master of mplex and my experience with non dvd profiles are non existence. The following three examples work for me although the f3 profiles creates a file twice as large.

mplex -f9 -o my.mpg my.m2v my.ac3 my.mp2

mplex -f8 -o my.mpg my.m2v my.ac3 my.mp2

mplex -f3 -o my.mpg my.m2v my.ac3 my.mp2

mplex I am using reports itself as: mplex mjpegtools mplex-2 version 2.0.0 (2.2.3)

It can be downloaded from liquid217's DVDAuthorGUI webpage
http://www.videohelp.com/~liquid217/dvdauthorgui.pl you will need to install dvdauthorgui and then you can find mplex in the bin folder of the installed program. Or I can pm you with a url to a copy. Let me know.

good luck,

Is there a free program (with a gui) that can simply combine an .m2v file and an .ac3 file into an .mpg file?

I'm trying to make a very simple DVD with DVDStyler, but it needs mpg files; I don't think it can work with the separated audio and video like Gui4DVDAuthor can.

Edit: gah, I must be blind, I didn't see that Imago program when I first posted this. thanks.
