wich settings in megui to pres. DolbyDigital 2.0 information?

[bananacreamandpeca]

If my StarWars V-Laserdisc says it has 'Dolby Digital 2.0"
Wich options do I need to set in MeGui?
I want to preserve the surround-information (if any)
in either AAC or OGG format.

please suggest settings, cuz all these options get a little confusing.

nothing. 'Dolby Digital' just means AC3 format audio.

My main problem is this.
How do I get Megui to read and encode the audio directly from source VOB's?

I tried an avs script:

directshowsource("G:\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_1.VOB",audio=true)

Then I get this error:


Log for job job2

Error:
MeGUI.AviSynthException: Script error: syntax error
(C:\starwars-v-AC3sound.avs, line 1, column 1)
at MeGUI.AviSynthClip..ctor(String func, String arg, AviSynthColorspace forceColorspace, AviSynthScriptEnvironment env)
at MeGUI.AviSynthAudioEncoder.encode()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The current job contains errors. Skipping chained jobs

The VOB's On "G:" are in a ISO file

The AVSscript generated with Megui-D2V creator was this:


DGDecode_mpeg2source("C:\VTS_01_1.d2v",cpu=4,info=3)
ColorMatrix(hints=true)
#Not doing anything because the source is progressive
crop( 8, 54, -8, -50)

LanczosResize(656,320) # Lanczos (Sharp)
Convolution3D("movielq") # Heavy Noise

Wkipedia says I have to change a line in the D2V-AVS script changing a "false" into "true"
But there is no line created in my AVS that says anything about audio is true or false.

What must I add to this script so MEGUI will find and encode the AC3 audio?

demux the vob using dgindex and it will produce and ac3 file which you can load directly into megui :)

Didn't Megui's/D2V-creator just indexed my DVD-source with DGIndex?

Or are you saying I have to maually open DGIndex and demux the audio?

[deets]

when you load up the d2v creator, the middle bit will be about audio and it will give you the option to demux your audio files. chose demux all audio tracks and it will rip all the ac3 files from the vob.

you can then manually load in your ac3 into the bottom audio section of the megui encoder

Hi, I have done that. But I cannot find any Demuxed AC3-files?

They are generated in the same dir the D2V file is created right?

[bananacreamandpeca]

[edit:]

I checked with this guide: http://www.digital-digest.com/articles/MeGUI_H.264_Conversion_Guide_page4.html

It also says Audio will be demuxed during the D2V-file generation
But I really cannot find any demuxed AC3 files.
The DGIndex file is saved on my HD. And IS there. Except for the
AC3 files.

Also, When I open DGIndex maually.
Load the VOB's, and select demux Audio only,
Prgram errors and windows says DGIndex needs to shut down?

Do I need to have a seperate AC3-plugin installed to let Megui demux the AC3 from VOB?
I have AC3-filter installed. Dunno if that is sufficient.

[deets]

i think they should be in the same folder as the source vob?

[bananacreamandpeca]

That will be a problem, since the "Source" is a virtual mounted
ISO file.
What must I do now?

[deets]

god knows :) burn the iso file and rip it that way?

[Skelsgard]

To get the audio demuxed to an external file in DGIndex, you must set Audio --> Output Method --> Demux Tracks or Demux All Tracks.
If you use "Disable", the audio won´t be exported, if you use "Decode AC3 Track to WAV", well, it will do just that.

Cheers.
