Bad news about Nero 8
Nero 8 Filters/Decoder wont work anymore outside Showtime!
For a few weeks Madshi had Contact with a Nero Programer. The Guy told him that newer Nero Versions will not allow using any Decoder/Filter Outside Showtime!
Obviously ist Fact now with Nero 8
My HDDVD/BR Plugin works correct in Nero 8 Showtime. TrueHD,DD+ Plaback works. But not outside Showtime/Graphedit(recode.ex) or eac3to anymore .What a Crap!
So when when you want decode your Eac3/TrueHD Tracks ,dont install Nero 8 and stay with Nero7 until we have a Solution

Thanks for letting me know, I just updated my Nero 7 Ulra edition, but I will make sure I stay away from Nero 8.

All these files will be VC-1 since they are my HD DVD rips. But what tools do I need to get this to work, and how do I use them if not self-explanatory? I have no experience with command line prompts by the way, but if I knew what the prompts were supposed to be then I could certainly input them. Thanks in advance.
Install the Haali Media Splitter package. The tool "gdsmux" (shipping with that package) can directly remux EVO into MKV. Once you have your MKV, you can use the tool "mkvtoolnix" to add audio tracks to the MKV. Maybe you can already do that with gdsmux, I've not used that yet. mkvtoolnix has a nice GUI, though. However, muxing the EVO file to MKV should be done with gdsmux and not with mkvtoolnix.

yes, but its important to remux the mkv from gdsmux with mkvmerge and 23.976 Timecode
Because remuxed VC1/Evo output mkv from gdsmux has 29.97 FPS (as like as HaaliMediaSplitter on VC1 what is wrong)!
You must remux VC1/Evo in any case with mkvmerge and 23.976 Timecode
So a VC1/Evo Remux "must" be done with gdsmux and mkvmerge.

That's worked fine for VC1 (reclock reports 23.976) but with AVC I just can't get reclock to get the FPS. There's no stutter so I suppose it matters not.

I can't even get AVC properly remuxed into MKV. gdsmux stalls for me. Demuxing and remuxing works but audio sync is totally lost that way for me. (All tested with Equilibrium). So currently I have my h264 HD DVD movies still in EVO files. But I think we're a bit out of topic now...

Also sorry for going OT, but I had same problems with Equilibrium, and gave up. A real nightmare disc. However, had no problems with Blue Ray AVC "The Prestige", as long as I used TSRemux to extract the avc1 and then use mkvextract. All fine except no framerate in reclock.
It's a good job most HDDVDs are vc1 (shivers at the thought of Equilibrium).
Back on topic, can someone please confirm that using eac3to is the only way to bypass DRC with the nero filter? And that by using the nero filter in a directshow player (mpc, zoomplayer, theatretek etc.) will use DRC?

Confirmed. Well, if there's enough interest, I could probably add a tweak to switch off DRC for use in 3rd party media players. This tweak would only work for E-AC3, though. It would *NOT* work for conventional AC3.

I would be very interested in such a tweak.
I'm now going down the analog out route and using nero in TT or MPC would be ideal.

this DRC Tweak is only eac3to internal and not possible for Realtime Playback. You can only Remove Dialnorm from a DD+ File
For DShow Playback of DD+:
-only in Nero Showtime it self you can switch of DRC
-Nero Decoder in a Dshow Player like mpc/WMp/Zooomplayer applies DRC+DialNorm
-SonicAudioDecoder applies DRC+DolbyGain,Sonic System Settings have no Effect. in eac3to and Dshow Players
Conclusion:
-DD+ Playback with a Dshow Player like mpc isnt possible without DRC/Dialnorm
-To decode DD+ to wave/etc eac3to+ Nero is the one and only Way to avoid DRC/Dialonorm
-TrueHD Decoding is still with DialNorm
But ffmpeg EAC3 is a chance for realtime Playback without DRC/Dialnorm. Hopefully a proper ffdshow Build is coming soon

Does the AC3 file you get from eac3to play with the correct length? If so, it's very unprobable that eac3to is at guilt here. Maybe the aac 5.1 encoder generally doesn't like tracks longer than 124 minutes? I've no idea. Btw, what you're doing is not really optimal. You're decoding E-AC3 which is fine. Then you're reencoding to a lossy codec (AC3). Which is fine if AC3 is your final aim. But if you want to end up with another format you should skip the AC3 step to keep audio quality as high as possible. You should probably ask eac3to to give you a wav file and then convert that wav file to aac by using BeSweet.
Thanks for your reply, madshi (and for this great tool!)
I have tested it again on underworld yesterday. The wav-file and the ac3-file eac3to created worked fine in all players. But converting these files to aac still doesn't work with besweet. Yesterday i tried it with neroaacenc.exe and neroaacenc_sse2. Always the same result -> audio length is 124 minutes. Still confused about this problem ...

This sounds like a problem with the aac encoder or BeHappy to me. I don't think eac3to is at guilt. So that means there's nothing I can do to help you. Please ask for help in the BeHappy or aac thread.

I think tvjunky use BeSweet, not BeHappy.
With BeHappy you can open the ac3 with NicAc3Source() or the big_wav with RaWavSource() (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1037550#post1037550). And after encode with NeroAacEnc.
If you have the big_wav (>4GB) don't need BeHappy because can use a direct command line.
But, always remember use the parameter -ignorelength with NeroAacEnc (or -readtoeof 1 with Aften) when the wav file is > 4GB.

"fix" is bad IMHO. "skip" has the biggest danger of asnyc problems. "silence" should be similar to "fix" in terms of audio sync. Even "fix" can result in audio sync problems.

Ok THX
The problematic EAC3 5.1 640Kbps is from Troy HDDVD.
It works with "Silence" :)
The Reencoded ac3 from "fix" Output has a loud cracking Noise, while the rencode from "silence" Output is clean.

WAV files cannot really handle files > 4GB. Some programs even stumble with WAV files over 2GB. Other programs can be configured to try to work around the WAV problem and they work alright with such big files.

The Reencoded ac3 from "fix" Output has a loud cracking Noise, while the rencode from "silence" Output is clean.
I will better use "Silence" from now on for eac3 and ac3
The "Silence" method is always the most sure (works always, maintain the sync) but can also have clicks when play.
The "Fix" method work fixing the CRC and leaving errors in data, most the times work better than "Silence" with inaudible effects, if errors are not important, but sometimes the errors are important and can crash the decoders or produce big cracking noise like you say.

I think there are different kinds of corruption. The usual kind is probably that the length of the audio file is correct but that some of the data is corrupt. In that case "Silence" should maintain the sync. However, if the source container is corrupt (or if the demuxing routine has a bug) there could be additional invalid data in the source file. As a result the final repaired audio file could be too long. In that case "Skip" might maintain sync while "Silence" could lose sync.

On huge interleaved waves (+4gb )the Runtime is often wrong.
But the mono waves and encoded Output from it is fine, no Problem
Do you need AC3 for your PSPS ?
No, wanted to downmix it to two channel and encode to AAC.
When I go to try and convert, all programs only handle the first 9 minutes and 35 seconds.
How do I split into six mono wavs?

Does DTS-core extraction from DTS-HD implicitly remove Dial.Norm. from the stream?

Check the previous posts from tebasuna51. He explained how to call the AAC decoder to workaround this problem. There's a special parameter to make big WAV files work.

Yes...
