eac3to - audio conversion tool

[rhaz]

How to use eac3to to mux 6 mono wavs to DTS? I have a surcode encoder for DTS, I tried More GUI, but I totally don't understand anything there, there is no selection for dts encoder neither. I tried BeSweet GUI, it its all bugs in Windows 8, it gives blank screen in the GUI, I can't make any settings or options selection.

[tebasuna51]

I'd like to know how to cut an audio at a specific time and keep the first part of the cut.
AFAIK eac3to can't be used for that.
There are specific tools to do the job for each audio codec.
Like here is off topic open other thread with a MediaInfo of your audio file.

@ tebasuna51:

Did you reply to wiggaz, to rhaz, or to both?

@ wiggaz:

It seems that eac3to does not yet offer support for processing only # seconds while transcoding. A combination of a negative delay and a maximum transcoding duration could allow something similar to Trim() in AviSynth, but it may have to be implemented yet...

@ rhaz:

As far as I know, open the six channel WAVs in your SurCode DVD-DTS encoder. It has an own GUI. See the screenshot on the Minnetonka website (http://www.minnetonkaaudio.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=54&Itemid=87). You don't feed them via eac3to when they are already six mono WAVs, only when a surround audio source is transcoded.

I'm trying to use Eac3To to convert DTS-HD MA into FLAC libav isn't able to do more than the regular DTS embedded in the DTS-HD MA track so I started fiddling with the latest trial version of ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre as that seems to be the way to get this going.

I've moved all the dll's and ax files to my Eac3To folder, manually registered all the necessary files using elevated CMD prompt using regsvr32 but it's still not working for me.

I only get the message "The ArcSoft DTS decoder doesn't seem to work, will use libav insetad." and we are back to basic...

[LigH]

eac3to used to support the DLLs provided by TMT3, but the most current version (TMT5) is not supported anymore (it doesn't use a "checkactivation.dll" which was required in the older supported version). You may be able to find a package of all supported DLLs, but sharing them separately (like in RipBot264) may not comply with the ArcSoft EULA...

I'm trying to back-up a copy of a 3D Blu-ray and I notice that eac3to reports left eye and right eye. If I want to back-up to 2D does it matter which one I select?

[Shevek]

I'm trying to back-up a copy of a 3D Blu-ray and I notice that eac3to reports left eye and right eye. If I want to back-up to 2D does it matter which one I select?

very much so - I can never remember which is which, but one eye is the normal 2D movie and the other eye is only the "extra" info needed to create the 3D image. There won't be an audio track in the "extra" eye track.

[rack04]

Thanks. I'm going to assume the left eye is the normal 2D movie because the right eye choked DGDecNV and the resultant file size was much less than the left eye stream.

[r0lZ]

I have an example of a commercial 3D BD with the left and right views inverted. There are at least two examples currently available: Ice Age 3 and Sammy II. In both cases, eac3to prints this:

eac3to.exe "Z:\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00852.mpls" 1)

M2TS, 2 video tracks, 11 audio tracks, 12 subtitle tracks, 1:34:02, 24p /1.001
1: Chapters, 20 chapters
2: h264/AVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
[...]

It should be this:

2: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/AVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)


Also, track 3 is not an AVC stream, but a MVC stream. So, ideally, the output should be:

2: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/MVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)

However, that's not really important, as long as the MVC stream is always after the AVC stream. I suppose it's the case, but I'm not absolutely sure. If in this case it is before the AVC stream, the correct output should be:

2: h264/MVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)


Currently, it is therefore not possible to know for sure what's the correct order of the views to convert the 3D movie to side-by-side or top-bottom.
Is it possible to fix that bug? Thanks in advance.

[EDIT] I did a demux of track 2, and it is the AVC stream. So, apparently, that confirms that the AVC track is always "before" the MVC track. But there is still no way to know what track contains the left or right view.

[frencher]

I have same problem of r0lZ with commercial 3D BD with the left and right views inverted "Le voyage extraordinaire de Samy"

http://cdn-ibb.ladmedia.fr/var/ibb/storage/images/sorties/insolite/le-voyage-extraordinaire-de-samy-a-la-geode/8432676-1-fre-FR/Le-Voyage-extraordinaire-de-Samy-a-la-Geode_fiche_sortie_portrait_184.jpg

eac3to prints this:

eac3to.exe "H:\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00011.mpls"

M2TS, 2 video tracks, 1 audio track, 1:25:35, 24p /1.001
1: Chapters, 12 chapters
2: h264/AVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
[...]


It should be this:
2: h264/AVC (right eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
3: h264/MVC (left eye), 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)

Same thanks ;)

Hi,

Is it possible to use madFlac to decode a flac file and then feed it into eac3to?

I am asking this because I am testing flaccl and would like to verify if the files created by it are bit perfect.

If I use eac3to to convert a flac file created by flaccl I get the following error:
"An error in the stream caused the FLAC decoder to lose synchronization.
Aborted at file position 3145728."

However, if I try playing the file using madFlac it plays fine, so, if we could use madFlac instead of eac3to's internal flac decoder I think I would be able to do the tests I want...

The only way I can think about is to use graphedit for converting the flac file with madFlac to 6 wav files (since it's a movie soundtrack) and then convert the 6 wav files to one single flac using eac3to. Would this be the only option?

[madshi]

If madFlac can play it, but eac3to not, this might be a bug in eac3to, or a bug in the audio file. I'd suggest that you create a bug entry here: http://eac3to.bugs.madshi.net and attach a short test file with which eac3to complains. Then if I find some time for eac3to again, I'll give it a try. As for feeding madFlac (or any other DirectShow decoder output) into eac3to: I'm not aware of a direct/simple way to do that.

[yesgrey]

Bug entry created. However, due to problems with it not accepting flac files it ended up creating two bug entries. Could you please delete the one that has no file attached?

I wanted to start using flaccl instead of flac inside eac3to, because it will save me a lot of time, but I want to be sure that it gives accurate results, hence why I wanted to use eac3to to convert a flaccl generated file to a flac eac3to flac, to compare with the original one created with eac3to, which I consider as the reference.

The tests I did using graphstudio and madflac to output pcm files were not very good to flaccl, because not only the files are different than the eac3to generated one, but they are also different between them if I compare two different compression levels. It seems flaccl is messing the data in someway... However, I think a comparison using eac3to would be more appropriate.

Now, it's just waiting for you to find the time to look at it... :)

[r0lZ]

Madshi, if you want the info on how to determine if the AVC stream of a 3D BD is the left or right view, Jdobbs has just poster the answer here (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1630291#post1630291).

[AngelGraves13]

Can eac3to do TrueHD to WAVS? I tried it on Ghostbusters and it threw me an error using the Stream Extractor tool. Should I just extract the THD file and try it via command line?

[tebasuna51]

Yes, it can.
Try with:

eac3to input.thd output.wavs

and put the log if there are problems.

[Sparktank]

madshi,

Will you be changing the FLAC library to the newer revisions made by Xiph.org?

FLAC has just updated to 1.3.0 (http://xiph.org/flac/changelog.html) very recently.

Also the source tarballs containing the newer Xiph updates can be downloaded from...
http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/flac/

They also moved their development to their own git repository (http://git.xiph.org/?p=flac.git;a=summary).

EDIT: I actually just replaced the libFLAC.dll from RareWares.com (v1.3.0) in the eac3to directory and it seems to have converted audio to FLAC without problems.

EDIT2: I think I understand the FLAC update.
It's mostly for the front-end CLI encoders (flac.EXE) and not the library itself (libflac.DLL) and since eac3to deals with the library directly, the update isn't needed.

I just read a post over at Illustrate's forum (dBpoweramp) about someone requesting a FLAC update and the Illustrate devs explained it pretty well.

[Thunderbolt8]

dtsdecoderdll.dll v1.1.0.9 has been released with ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre 6.0.1.123.

anyone able to do an extensive test with all that dts (ma/hd) decoding with all those bitdepth and channel options to see whether there are any advantages compared to the former versions?

[Chumbo]

Help clarify something for me please. When slowing down audio, is the displayed message supposed to show the actual parameters as requested on the command or is it just a generic message? I ask because you can see, below, that I'm slowing down 24 to 23.976 but the message shows Changing FPS from 25.000 to 23.976.

When the input file have a fps defined:

MKV, 1 video track, 1 audio track, 0:42:57, 25p

the -24.000 is ignored.
Extract the ac3 if you need a duration change -24.000 -changeTo23.976

Okay, that's a good idea. Yeah, the original video stream actually has its FPS as 24 but eac3to is picking up the container FPS. Thanks T.

In a 3D BD, the left and right eye streams are stored independently in two different M2TS files, and together in the corresponding SSIF file. These files are referenced by the MPLS file. eac3to can demux all of them, and that's nice. However, there is a big bug when demuxing the subtitles from the SSIF or MPLS file of many 3D-BDs.

The M2TS file containing the AVC video stream (usually the left eye view) contains also all audio and subtitle streams. Usually, the M2TS file containing the MVC video stream (right eye) contains ONLY the video stream. The audio streams are never included in the dependent M2TS. But in some BDs, the subtitle streams are ALSO included in that dependent M2TS file. It's with that BDs that the bug occurs.

When there are two identical subtitle streams in the two M2TS files, and the user demuxes the SSIF or MPLS file, the bug occurs. I think it's because the SAME stream is included TWICE in the SSIF file. So, when eac3to demuxes the subtitles, it processes two times the same subtitle stream, and that produces a lot of "The source file seems to be damaged (discontinuity)" error messages, and finally the demux operation fails with "The SUP reader received unknown data. Aborted at file position #."

It is possible to successfully demux the subtitle stream from the left or right view M2TS file, but it cannot be demuxed from the SSIF file (or indirectly from the MPLS). It's a pity, as of course, it is possible to demux only one of the two video streams at a time from the M2TS (and you cannot create the chapter file).

Is it possible to fix this bug?
Let me know if you need additional information.
Thanks!

Guys, if there's a bug in (or problem with) eac3to, why don't you use the eac3to bug tracker? That's your one and only chance to get bugs fixed in the next eac3to build (whenever that may come). If you post a bug in the bug tracker, a sample would always be nice, so that I can actually reproduce the problem on my PC. Thanks.

I have a BD with a Dolby True HD track (with a -32ms delay) and I want to add a DTS-Master Audio track.

When extracting the DTHD to wavs (Nero decoder selected) eac3to states "Applying RAW/PCM delay..."

Using DTS MA suite, will the raw/pcm delay still be intact when the DTS-HD track is created?

I did a 10 min test mux, via Tsmuxer, with no dealy selected, and the audio/dialog seems to be in sync,
but would like to confirm.

[DarkSpace]

No. eac3to decodes the track and fixes the delay value (that's the line above), which means that after decoding, the track has a delay of 0 ms (no delay).
In case you want to keep the delay for whatever strange reasons, try adding +32ms to your commandline. It should then look something like this:
eac3to "00001.mpls" 2: "Path\00001.wavs" +32ms
This way, the -32ms delay of the track that eac3to wants to remove are compensated for by the +32ms delay added to the track by eac3to.

I actually just replaced the libFLAC.dll from RareWares.org (v1.3.0) in the eac3to directory and it seems to have converted audio to FLAC without problems.

[hubblec4]

thanks, i will try it.

[mindbomb]

didn't they change something with 6.1 and 7.1 flac audio with the new encoder?
Or is it consistent with how eac3to has been doing it all along?

I just bought the new 2nd edition of the Spears & Munsil audio/video calibration BD. I wanted to rip it so I can put some of the calibrations on my media server rather than having to always pop the BD into the player. However, as with other calibration discs, many of the clips are short, i.e., 2 to 6 minutes in length. So eac3to shows "HD DVD / Blu-Ray disc structure not found." which I believe is due to the large number of play lists and IIRC there's a minimum length?

Is there any way to override this minimum length because this title, even though has many short clips and play lists, is valid and would be nice to be able to process it with eac3to. If there isn't an override, do you want me to post this as a bug in bug tracker or as a feature request in the request thread? Thank you.

@Chumbo
You can use each mpls like input for eac3to.

[Boulder]

I've been trying to encode the audio track of Edward Scissorhands to flac (using the internal libflac) and AAC (piping to qaac) but the channel order is incorrect. Apparently the track has 3 front channels and one rear channel (centre?) but I don't know how to configure the encoders. Can anyone help?

I didn't even know you can do that. Thank you tebasuna as always. :)

Is there any way you can turn off/disable the "Remapping Channels" step?
Or is there another way to get rid of the problem?
Thanks in advance for helping me out!

@SchnittenGott
There are a problem, but isn't related with "Remapping Channels" that is needed for a 6.1 (english) and not needed for 5.1 (german).

Please run:
eac3to -test
to know software versions.

I installed only the ones I needed for dts decoding, so not all are present:

eac3to v3.27
command line: eac3to -test
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
eac3to (v3.27) is up to date
Nero Audio Decoder (Nero 7) is not working correctly
http://www.nero.com/eng/store-blu-ray.html
CAUTION: You need Nero 7. Nero 8 won't work with eac3to.
ArcSoft DTS Decoder (1.1.0.8) works fine
Sonic Audio Decoder (3.27.0.0) doesn't seem to be installed
Haali Matroska Muxer (2009-01-11) is installed
There's a new version (2011-03-03) available

Nero AAC Encoder could not be located
http://www.nero.com/eng/nero-aac-codec.html
Copy NeroAacEnc.exe to the eac3to or to the Windows folder.
Surcode DTS Encoder doesn't seem to be installed
http://www.surcode.com

Is there a new version of ArcSoft DTS Decoder?

Not always a new version is better, I still use 1.1.0.0 without problems.

Hey everyone,

Is there a way to adjust individual channel levels in eac3to when changing formats?

I would like to take an HDAudio source and modify the individual channel levels prior to converting to/writing a .w64 file.

Thanks for your help,

JSS

Is there a list of all the .dlls and .ax files I need and what I need to register for all the decoders/encoders used in eac3to?

Nope, with eac3to you can only modify all channels with the same value.

Hello all,

What are all the extensions supported by eac3to ?
I know that one
.h264 .vc1 .ac3 .eac3 .thd .thd+ac3 .dts .dtshd .wav .wavs .sup .srt .txt

Y there a list of all those used by eac3to for demux ?

[tebasuna51]

eac3to can output:

Video: .h264 .vc1 .m2v (all can be muxed to .mkv with Haali)
Uncompressed audio (extract or decode): .wav (.wavs) .w64 .rf64 .pcm .raw
Compressed audio (extract or encode): .ac3 .flac .dts (encode with SurCode) .m4a (aac audio in mp4 container encoded with NeroAacEnc)
Other compressed audio (only extract): .eac3 .thd (.thd+ac3) .dtshd .aac .mp2 .mp3
Subtitles: .sup .srt .ass .ssa
Chapters: .txt

Madshi, could you provide a list of standard format demux function in eac3to -help

[tebasuna51]

What?

MPEG2 video -> .m2v
MPEG2 audio -> .mp2 .mp3 (maybe .mp1 but I don't found any sample to test)

[frencher]

Thanks tebasuna51,

It's strange, works same :confused:

MPEG2 video (http://ul.to/78qidjok) -> .m2v and .mpeg2

Why ?
