smartLabs tsMuxeR: Transport Stream muxer

[n0mag!c]

What I am trying to do is use this program to convert my HD DVD's over to M2TS so I can stream them over my network.
I am using EVOdemux to extract the sub's from the HD DVD in the form of sup file.
Am I doing a step or two or even three wrong????


You must use Pelican9's SUPread to convert HD-DVD sups to Blu-Ray format. http://pel.hu/down/SUPread.exe

I've found sync problem with H.264 video:
when muxing video stream with 29,97 fps with 2:3 pulldown flag:
- when NOT changing fps then audio goes out of sync (like video is playing at 29.97 fps, but audio is playing at 23.976 fps)
- when changing fps to 23.976 (in TsMuxer GUI) then audio stay in sync and playing fine on PC, but when playing on PS3 then video is stattering (like drops every second frame)

Then I passed video stream through H264INFO removing 2:3 pulldown. After that muxing with "tsmuxer" gives perfect result.

Use 1.4.6, I just did Transformers and no problems.

Can you add a Checkbox for TrueHD Demuxing ?? I Need the raw TrueHD Stream.. beacause your Transcoding dont work !

[napalm-187]

hi

ok i have make with supread from hd dvd an bd compatible subtitle

forced german subs

i muxx video audio and the sub with tsmuxxer

plays fine but without subtitels in powerdvd

in mpc or zoomplayer i can enable the subs but i cant see the subs
where is here the prob?

while playing the file with mpc homcinema and laod external subs as srt then i see the subs

thx

The movie is 720p? SUPread only makes 1080p subs.

[hm10]

i don't see the subs and preesed on "next subtitle" in powerdvd

[napalm-187]

@Glorioso

movie is 1080p untouched vidoe from hd dvd

[duramaximus]

tsMuxeR is a muxing application. It doesn't do encoding of any sort. So the subtitles are muxed into the output file (BD sup/m2ts presentation graphic stream) .

The subs are switchable, just like they are on commercial discs. :)

GREAT!!!! :)

That's what I was wishing for.

Thanks for your response.

Can you add a Checkbox for TrueHD Demuxing ?? I Need the raw TrueHD Stream.. beacause your Transcoding dont work !

you can use TSMuxer to demux just the TrueHD track, just right click over the THD track and select demux to elementary stream, you should also be able to demux the THD track with tsMuxeR by unselecting all the tracks with the exception of the THD track, then pick the demux option below, don't forget to provide a filename for the demuxed track... both ways work, I typically convert the THD track to DTS and remux back with the video stream into an m2ts container, works well...

[Deckard2019]

I just want to be sure of sth : I would like to remux a full movie to TS from a list of M2TS files (BluRay).
If I add first M2TS file then append the rest of M2TS files, then select tracks (valid for all sources ?), then hit remux, am I doing well ?
Thank you ...
Seems this method does not work properly on PopcornHour, with AVC and seamless branching.
In that case, the file hiccups at every intersection. No problem with MPEG2. Anyone can confirm ?
Thank you.

Thank you.

Deja Vu is seamless and AVC (VC1), and it works flawlessly on my PCH, I just watched it the other day. Here's what I did to mux it:

copy /b all the segments to one main m2ts, then used TSRemux as the previous (pre 1.5.0) of tsMuxeR would not accept LPCM, I removed un-needed tracks and ended up with VC-1, LPCM, AC3 (640Kps) and a PGS stream, as I said works perfectly on the PCH...

[Thunderbolt8]

there should be an audio/video sync usually when joining the files with copy /b towards the end of the movie, minor with lpcm, but quite noticeable for ac3.

[wizziwig]

Edit:

Never mind... it ended up being a bug in the H264 analysis tool. I still think it would be a good idea to add an option which does not modify the elementary stream in any way. It just makes no sense for a muxer to modify the input data unless the user requested a change in format, fps, etc.

-Mark

[Ryu77]

I suggest the author add an option which does not modify the elementary stream in any way. Doing so in a muxer doesn't seem like a good idea, especially when there are bugs. If the elemtary streams remain untouched, at least you could rebuild a correct file with another TS muxer in the future.

Sounds logical to me. :)

Hi. Im trying to transmux a HD-DVD source from a 12GB evo file to .ts and im getting this error ca. 15% out in the process:

Reading buffer overflow. Possible container streams are not syncronized? Try to increase read buffer size or demux selected streams to single files. File name: C:\movie.EVO

Any idea? Where can i increase the buffersize?

[Atak_Snajpera]

@Roman
Could you check why some AC3 are not detected?

@Roman
Could you check why some AC3 are not detected?
Hmmm...

AC3 Delay Corrector reports: - Source file information:

Sampling rate: 44.1 kHz
Nominal bit rate: 256 kbps
Framelength: 0x045A
Length: 4356frames (00:02:31,643)
WARNING> Filelength is not OK.
WARNING> Possible corrupted file or
WARNING> last frame is too short.
There are 28.72532 frames in one second.

How come the AC3 file runs at 44.1Khz?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Above file was encoded using Aften 0.0.8.Source was 44.1Khz AAC

EDIT: It seems that TSMuxer does not like when AC3 is 44.1Khz. The same source resampled to 48Khz is recognized by TSMuxer. Weird.

Demuxing / Transcoding want work with 1.5.0 b

So Guys...

I try to Demuy a True HD Audio Stream from my m2ts File.. i select the File... and --> DONT Check the ( Downconvert TRUE HD to AC3 ).. But TsRemuxer dont Demux the Raw file... he Starting the Transcoding:


AC3 bad frame detected. Resync stream.
Decoding AC3 stream (track 1): Bitrate: 448Kbps Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 6
AC3 bad frame detected. Resync stream.

So.. i try the same but now ill CHECK the Downconvert checkbox..

Same Result:

I think you are talking about the wrong utility; there is TxMuxer and TxRemux. Confusing I know, but there is another thread in this forum for the utility I think you are referring to.

Hi everyone,
First of all i would like to thank Roman for the great job and regular updates, i thank all the Doom9 members too for their good feedbacks and experiences.
As everyone knows Toshiba decided to stop supporting HD DVD and this is too bad for me who bought "Transformers" in this format. I decided to rip it on my PC just in case ;) so I riped it and that gave me the two main files FEATURE_1.EVO and FEATURE_2.EVO I then took EVO demux from the first file (FEATURE_1.EVO) and it gave me FEATURE_1_MERGED.H.264.stream.0.mpv + FEATURE_1_MERGED.DD+.stream.00.mpa and all the others audio files then I took tsmuxer, passed the video flux from 29.97 to 23.97 frames, the video worked just great but guess what the audio files in DD+ didn't work on my Dvico TviX6500. So the question is how can I convert the E-AC3 audio files to AC3? I tried e-ac3to but I don't understand the way it works with these damn MSDOS command lines.
Please can you help me?
Many thanks.

That's a good question. I'd also like to know because I get this same error message all the time.

same here.
tsMuxer doesn't demux TrueHD.
It always extracts DD core with a lot of "AC3 bad frame detected. Resync stream" errors whether downconvert checked or not.

[S3Ri0US]

@Roman.. can you add True HD - Raw Demuxing ? Like Xport ?

[survivant001]

is it possible to create 00001.m2ts with a limit of 4 gigs ?

I just remuxed transformers HD-DVD here's what I did:

Best way is to use eac3to as follows:
eac3to feature_1.evo+feature_2.evo -demux

It will join the two evo files into a videotrack.vc1 file and demux all other audio streams adjusting as necessary for any time delays.

Then use tsMuxeR to remux the joined video stream with whatever audio streams you want. You can convert audio streams to other formats if you need and know how.

Best way to run eac3to is as follows:
1) Go to "start" select "run" and type "cmd" hit enter
2) On the dos windows change the path variable to the folder containing your eac3to program as follows: if the folder containing eac3 is called eac3folder then type at the DOS prompt "path %path%eac3folder" without the quotes
3) Navigate to the folder with the evo's (for example use cd \evolocation)
4) You can now enter "eac3to feature_1..." as indicated above

Hope that helps...

[DoomBot]

Anyone else have a problem with No Country For Old Men? When i use tsMuxeR the video will slow down then speed up and so on, if i play the untouched movie file it play smooth using powerdvd. I cant even play the untouched movie file with media player classic, now that is strange.

[adalbertoma]

Atak / Roman

Not only AC3 is not detected. Some AAC tracks are not detected as well as of 1.5.0.

I have posted an example on this same topic some weeks ago, but got no answer from Roman so far.

Anyway, great work, Roman.

Regards,

[Mitchjs]

Roman, Great work... thanks for this app, and for putting up some bad questions without going nuts :)

i have a bunch of .ts streams that are VC1 with DD+, 1.5.0b doesnt like the DD+, complains at least the gui does :)
these .ts are remuxed by that "other" program "tsremux"
any ideas? need sample?

also the commandline muxer part has a problem with file names like
"Leathal Weapon 2 (1080P.VC1,EAC3).ts"
my guess is its how you parse the name and pick up the ".vc1" as its extension

It is a bug. I'll fix it this evening.

[survivant001]

@roman76r

here a little overview of the requested features

- add .str subtitles support
- add menu
- create menu/chapters for a series of eps. Like anime, eps1-4.
- generate the m2ts file in bluray format in 4 gigs file max (will be able to copy it on a FAT32 key, to play it on the ps3)
- drag & drop into the input track list.

I think that the features of what I think of.

Thanks roman for all the work already done.

[hidef_rec]

Need some help w/the framerate of an AVC file. It's 1920x1080p, but shows ~19fps via Nero Showtime. It's actually supposed to be 23.976. I authored this to Blu-ray anyway and the video playback is choppy as I'd expected.

When I use the latest h264info on the raw h264 file to force 23.976 fps and remove 3:2 pulldown flags, h264info either crashes or spits out a file w/garbled video.

Any ideas on how to make the AVC file Blu-ray compliant?

Update: Got this to work w/h264info_v22 using the "HD->BD Keep FPS" box checked.

[gav1577]

Hi anyone have any ideas why tsmuxer wont create a working avchd/bluray output for ps3 1080p the only way i can get it to work
is using tsremux p.s i tried changing the bdmv files with the nero ones and still no joy just get a black screen anyone ?

Hello roman76r
I send you a file at the following link for the message "SPS picture order 2 not supported."

http://dl.free.fr/gn9TMvKUN/sany0266_track1.h264
This file is 1280*720p 60. I would like to change the framerate to 60000/1001.

I don't know what means "SPS" but if Tsmuxer can support that, It could be great. I have this "problem" with the video from my camcorder

:thanks:

There is not enough space in the title so I expand it here:

If a Blu-Ray has the main movie in a single m2ts, there is no problem.

But there are some BDs that splits the main movie to several parts, and in the worst case the studio also scrambles the numbers of the files. The more evil BD I've ever seen has the main film in 13 m2ts file, and in very different order. Here is a picture of it:

http://hd.tx.hu/downloads/bdedit.PNG

All the files listen in the above windows holds a part of the mian movie, and the files need to be played (or concatenated) in the order as it shows.

For me it is not so hard to find the main movie, concatenate the files in the correct order if necessary, then use tsremux to correct the timestamps, but for many people it is, (and complicates my encoding guide also, but thats not the point :) )

So I requesting the following feature:

If I just show to Tsmuxer where is the BDMV folder of a Blu-ray disc, then Tsmuxer finds out what file or files contain the main movie and in what order, then put this all together and let me demux the tracks of the main movie (handle the main movie - even if it splitted to many part - like one m2ts file)

This is important just for demuxing, because if we remux some files, there is no point to keep this insane structure.

Thank you. Your work is very important for the community.

Dchard

[lexor]

Can someone offer more information about the VBR/CBR modes in the General tab? The readme is not very helpful on the subject of their exact function. It compares them to vbv-max-bitrate and such from x264, but those are encoding options that define stream structure. Since tsmuxer doesn't do any encoding, what do those options do? The CBR option in particular.
