If it's only the last one or the last few ones and if they are all together smaller than 5MB, eac3to is automatically ignoring them. This doesn't seem to be the case here. Maybe it's one of the files in the middle. Or maybe it's the last one and it's bigger than 5MB. Either way, it might be worth to not only check which part is different but also to play that different part in a media player to understand why it's different...
Yes, I understand. So checking the files or playing back them is usually necessary in those cases. Thanks.

Mind if I ask a beginner question? With the 2.59 ability to add a ac3 core to truehd, eac3to can now modify all hd-dvd audio formats to look like blu-ray formats, right? And with pulldown removal, the same is true with the video?
If I have this correct, is there a program besides scenarist that will allow me to remux hd-dvd to blu-ray. (I'm worried about madshi's recent comment that tsmuxer doesn't handle truehd).
Sorry for the noob question. I was looking at converting to flac, but with the upcoming hdmi 1.3 audio cards coming out, I'd like to pass the audio to my receiver to decode so blu-ray format makes sense if it is possible.

Thanks. Will be fixed in the next build.

4: DTS Master Audio, French, 5.1 channels, 16 bits, 48khz
[a04] The Arcsoft DTS Decoder only allows one operation at a time.
As the eac3to output explains, you cannot decode two DTS tracks at the same time with the ArcSoft decoder. That means that with this specific m2ts file "-analyzeBitdepth" runs into trouble because in order to analyze the bitdepth the tracks must be decoded first. You can work around the issue by checking each track separately.
With the 2.59 ability to add a ac3 core to truehd, eac3to can now modify all hd-dvd audio formats to look like blu-ray formats, right?
Except E-AC3. Which you have to transcode to make it Blu-Ray compatible.
And with pulldown removal, the same is true with the video?
Yes, I think so.
If I have this correct, is there a program besides scenarist that will allow me to remux hd-dvd to blu-ray. (I'm worried about madshi's recent comment that tsmuxer doesn't handle truehd).
tsMuxeR, but as I said, it's been reported that TrueHD muxing doesn't work so well.

E-AC3 is optional for Blu-Ray, right (the eac3to wiki says so)? I'm using TMT, which supports E-AC3 I'm almost positive, so I don't need to transcode for this player, correct? Or do I need to transcode always?
Thanks!

The m2ts container wants to have E-AC3 in a specific way which is not HD DVD compatible. Maybe you can still mux in HD DVD style E-AC3 tracks, but you would create a non-standard m2ts file this way. It may play with ArcSoft or maybe not. But I'd recommend to make your m2ts files standard conform to make sure they will play on every media player. But of course that's your decision.

Hmmmmmm....... That's a good question. eac3to cannot delay TrueHD tracks, but it can delay raw/pcm/ac3 tracks. I think what probably happens is that the AC3 track interweaved with the TrueHD track will be delay corrected, but the TrueHD track not. Of course that's not a good solution. I guess I'll have to disable delay correction for the AC3 track interweaved track, too, so that both tracks are equally not corrected.
I'll take your advice. Convert to AC3, or would you do it another way?
That's your choice. AC3, DTS, LPCM, whatever you like.

Interesting, but unhelpful for me <G> hopefully helpful for you.
Thanks for all your amazing work.
Set eac3to lose on the separate m2ts parts (listed in "[]", e.g. for playlist 1 it's 00011.m2ts, 00125.m2ts, 00128.m2ts, 00129.m2ts and 00130.m2ts). I'm sure that eac3to has a good reason to complain. Some of these m2ts parts must have a different video or audio track listing compared to the other parts. Joining m2ts parts with different track lists can't work properly. So you need to find out which parts are different. Then we can go from there...

Are there any benefits to demuxing/remuxing with eac3to vs. tsMuxeR? I've been using tsMuxeR lately and demuxing through the MPLS file, this way I am ensured all multiple files (if any) are appended properly. I also have no interest muxing to mkv, only m2ts or Blu-ray.
I have also found eac3to an more GUI pretty useful... which uses tsMuxeR.

The answer will be:
TSMuxer needs eac3to's help always but eac3to doesn't need any help of TSMuxer. :)

To me, eac3to is a video demuxer, audio demuxer-converter while TSMuxer is just a muxer anymore... (it is my opinion after the latest updates of eac3to)

Great, a few more questions.
1. How does tsMuxeR need eac3to's help?
2. does decoding take place during demuxing or just converting?
3. Is quality comprimised when using tsMuxeR over eac3to, or is it just the same since tsMuxeR uses the help of eac3to?
Thanks again, O.

Main advantage of using eac3to over tsmuxer is with seamless branching Blu-rays. Those movies are split among multiple .m2ts files from which audio can overlap a little bit. This means that just joining them together (what tsmuxer does) will result in audio-video sync problems. On the contrary, eac3to is the only program available that can remove overlapping parts of the audio streams. So, I suggest treating your seamless Blu-rays with eac3to as first step.
Regarding quality between tsmuxer and eac3to (in removing pulldown, for example - not sure if tsmuxer can do that), don't know where tsmuxer stands, but I can tell for sure that eac3to is perfect. So, to put it simple... using eac3to you don't loose anything.

Demuxing with eac3to vs. tsMuxeR:
(1) As nautilus7 said, eac3to fixes audio overlaps in seamless branching titles. tsMuxeR does not (AFAIK).
(2) eac3to automatically detects and fixes audio delays (when the audio stream begins earlier/later than the video stream). I don't know if tsMuxeR does that.
(3) eac3to automatically removes MPEG2, VC-1 and h264 pulldown from HD DVD video streams (29.97 -> 23.976). I'm not sure whether tsMuxeR does that, too. I've seen people reporting that they get stuttering problems with VC-1 movies when using tsMuxeR, only. Those people used vc1conv to remove the VC-1 pulldown and that fixed the problem for them. Now eac3to does the same thing as vc1conv for VC-1 streams. Also eac3to does the same thing as h264info for h264 streams.
(4) eac3to can transcode/modify HD DVD audio streams (e.g. E-AC3, TrueHD) to make them Blu-Ray/m2ts compatible. tsMuxeR can't do that. At least that's where tsMuxeR needs the help of eac3to.

Making so I only got a standar ac3 file, not a DD+ Blu-Ray compliant.
Thank you again.Blu-ray allows E-AC3 only for tracks with more than 5.1 channels (7.1). And these tracks are 5.1 AC3 core with E-AC3 extensions for the additional channels.

I found it. It's from Edward Scissorhands Blu-ray Disc. The movie menu states it is a 4.0 and eac3to a 3/1. That seems correct, except that the surround channel is empty (I checked a big part of the track to be sure about this).
Here (http://www.sendspace.com/file/e073sw) is a sample.
@nautilus7
This is a old post but now I understand your comment about the surround channel. Now I have ArcSoft DTS decoder and don't work fine with these atypical channel configuration.
My question is:
to decode this dts ma 3/1 sample do you use Sonic or ArcSoft decoder?
With -libav the surround channel is present, try:
eac3to yoursample31.dtshd output.wav -libav -1,2,0,3,4,5
With ArcSoft:
eac3to yoursample31.dtshd wrong_output.wav
the surround channel is empty, and is empty also with dts core:
eac3to yoursample31.dtshd core31.dts -core
eac3to core31.dts wrong_output.wav

With the help of Elektra999 I have dts samples (http://www.sendspace.com/file/0d5dbt)with atypical channel map.
The samples was encoded with DTS PRO SERIES SURROUND ENCODER.
Only 3/2.0 and 3/2.1 was encoded with Surcode.

(1) Wrong mask, the correct mask can be easyly put based in detection
(2) When decoded with libav need remapping channels.
(3) Same remap than libav needed.

Well, tebashuna51 you're right. There's something really strange with this track.
My findings:
* ArcSoft and Sonic decode the DTS-HD MA track bit perfect
* ArcSoft decode the DTS core "similar" to the above
* Sonic decode the DTS core with lower volume
* In the above cases the surround channel is empty
* With Libav the surround channel is not empty
* With Libav channels needs remapping
* With Libav L,R,C channels are similar to ArcSoft core decoding

I re-uploaded a sample (http://www.sendspace.com/file/wgdtbn) of this track.

The only part of converting an HD-DVD to Bluray that I can't figure out is how to convert the subtitle data (.sup) that eac3to produces to something that tsmuxer will take. Can anyone help me on this one?
Thanks
