I managed to loose the ability to boot to XP (from the boot menu) at start-upI did that with beta2.. I even had used different hds.. but if I disabled the vista hd, my pc had no choice than to boot xp again.
And you can mess around with the boot menu via control panel

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if i am just doing something wrong, but when I mux a vobsub with 2 streams, the resulting mp4 files have 3 subtitle streams.

In this case stream 1 is the full subtitles and stream 2 just translates stuff written on screen (it's an anime). When I added tags to the streams to name them I noticed that streams 1 & 2 are marked as full (although stream 2 is actually the signs) and stream three is marked signs but is actually the full subtitles again.

Hope that makes sense to you.

I need your logfile and also your .idx file (for idx file : zip & upload it somewhere...not needed to paste it here.)

i'm using latest mp4box and yamb 2.0 from kurtnoise.free.fr to create a .3gp file. after adding amr audio i get this error: Access violation at address 0044B7AC in module 'Yamb.exe'. Read of address 00000004.
erff...Confirmed. I'll fix that as soon as possible.

Well then you should move from delphi to freepascal/lazarus :p

Kurtnoise

12th September 2006, 17:27

Nope...gtk is more powerful for Linux imo.

Sharktooth

12th September 2006, 20:56

Well, porting delphi stuff to freepascal/lazarus is pretty easy.
Once you will publish the yamb 2 sources i'll give it a try.

Kurtnoise

13th September 2006, 16:58

tss, tss, tss...I can see what you're leading up. :p If I decide to open the sources, this won't be before GPL v3 release.

But if some people are interested by some ideas in Yamb 2.0, I can post some functions for sure...

Kurtnoise, any word yet reenabling the "-" character in the 2.0 preview?

SeeMoreDigital

13th September 2006, 22:34

Ah.... that's just reminded me...

When extracting chapters with YAMB 2.0 they are saved using the "Unicode" text format. Neither YAMB 1.6.0 or YAMB 2.0 seem to like the "Unicode" text format, they both seem to prefer the "ANSI" text format.

Sorry. I've no time to update the preview and/or fix bugs for the moment.

Not Yamb but MP4Box...

Could you please update MP4box to support Unicode format. I would like to have just one file with my greek/french subs in it... YAMB always stops in converting those srt files to ttxt. It doesn;t seem to like especially characters such as "é"... I have to put them manually.

And one more thing.... How can I create my own chapters? Could you be kind enough to upload a file to see how it works?

Kurtnoise

No.

I'm french too and no problem with the é characters here. So, try to update your MP4Box.

And one more thing.... How can I create my own chapters? Could you be kind enough to upload a file to see how it works?
CHAPTER01=00:00:00.000
CHAPTER01NAME=01. Chapter 1.
CHAPTER02=00:02:00.000
CHAPTER02NAME=02. Chapter 2.
CHAPTER03=00:03:00.000
CHAPTER03NAME=03. Chapter 3.
Red part is mandatory. There are some other Chapters style supported by MP4Box but this kind of file can be automatically created when you use DVDDecrypter as Ripper (in Settings :: OGM Chapters Style).

nickolasemp

22nd September 2006, 19:46

Thank you for your response on chapters...

I found it on gpac.sourceforge.net (http://gpac.sourceforge.net). As for the subs thing that is kinda weird... I'll try to see where I'm wrong in my files. Your srts are -in order to keep the é- saved in Unicode, right? Probably not...

Kurtnoise

22nd September 2006, 19:58

No, not Unicode but ANSI or UTF8.

nickolasemp

22nd September 2006, 20:01

Isn't UTF8 a Unicode format?

I too save them in UTF8 but when I insert them in Yamb it just can't complete the operation due to this...

foxyshadis

22nd September 2006, 21:13

A lot of text editors errornously call UTF-16 (or worse, UCS-2) "Unicode" and have a separate UTF-8 mode. A lot of text editors are also very dumb.

MP4Box supports UTF-8 but not UTF-16. Does your editor include the BOM (two bytes in front to identify it as unicode)? You can see them with a hex editor, or a non-Unicode app.

nickolasemp

22nd September 2006, 21:28

Is there any way that I can see it with Notepad? Anyway, I'm saving my srt files with Notepad (or Wordpad) in UTF-8... I do believe that it is UTF8 because Notepad has an option saying UTF8 and another saying Unicode...

foxyshadis

22nd September 2006, 22:01

Notepad will properly handle UTF-8 and UTF-16, yep. (Wordpad I have no clue.) So it must be something else... can you post a sample of an srt that doesn't work?

nickolasemp

22nd September 2006, 22:09

Here it is.... Hope it helps a bit...

Kurtnoise

23rd September 2006, 08:53

What kind of error did you have when you mux your srt with MP4Box ?

nickolasemp

23rd September 2006, 09:08

I've uploaded the wrong file. First I convert my srt files to ttxt with Yamb, so as to achieve full compatibility. This is where it initially crashes. It can;t recognise special characters but you already explained why. I'm planning to make more tests this weekend. I'll use different options to see what works with what.

Thanks for your answers everyone... Time to play with my settings.

I cannot create a mp4 with idx/sub.
The process always breaks up with "Creation fails"
How am I supposed to do it correctly?

When I add a sub file to a video stream, Yamb creates a idx file (Vobsub Version 7, 720x576) on its on.

I tried it with different movies, it does not work.

Is there right order important, in which I add the idx and sub file?

.sub files correspond to MicroDVD Subtitle for MP4Box. Importing fails because your file is probably pictures from Vobsub format not a text file. That's why you have this error. Only .idx file is enough for you.

I also get the cosmetic bug mentioned in post #15. Also, because I don't use the standard windows colours the first bit looks like this:

http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/3521/yamb1mo4.th.png (http://img147.imageshack.us/my.php?image=yamb1mo4.png)

I can't read the text at all until I select it. You should probably force certain colours if the user is not using a standard windows theme.

Kurtnoise, have you created a newer build of Yamb 2.0 preview other than the first instance? I'm looking forward to really testing out the preview version after the '-' character has been reactivated.

I'll continue here this (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=898366) thread.

So I used YAMB 2.0 and MP4Box 0.4.3 20061018. I set in YAMB file properties to brand: AVC1 and FPS: 25. Here is the LOG:

[17:44:00] : Yamb 2.0 started !!!
[17:44:00] : OS type detection...Windows XP Professional (version 5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 2)
[17:44:00] : MP4Box found...C:\Program Files\Multimedia\Video\YAMB\MP4Box.exe
[17:44:00] : No tagger tool detected...
[17:44:09] : track1.h264 added in the List.
[17:44:27] : Creation of track1.mp4 ...
[17:44:27] : Command Line used for the mp4 creation : "C:\Program Files\Multimedia\Video\YAMB\MP4Box.exe" -add "C:\Program Files\Multimedia\Video\YAMB\track1.h264:fps=25" -new "C:\Program Files\Multimedia\Video\YAMB\track1.mp4"

[17:44:28] : File Writing...
[17:44:29] : Creation complete.
[17:44:57] : Yamb 2.0 closed.

So there are 2 different problems. YAMB command line is correct according to FPS, but there is a bug in the MP4Box version I used. I tried an older one (20061005) and now FPS is set correctly.

The other problem is, that the -brand parameter is not there. So this probably is a bug in YAMB. Or am I missing something?
