smartLabs tsMuxeR: Transport Stream muxer

[kaag]

Version 1.7.6(b) (http://www.smlabs.net/tsMuxer/tsMuxeR_1.7.6(b).zip)
- Ability to open Blu-ray playlist (MPLS) files added. Also, when MPLS file is opened, chapters list automatically imported.
When MPLS is processed, "Clean Break" for connection_condition=5 correctly processed. It is actually for large playlists (10 M2TS files and more).
- bug fixed: some H.264 streams in version 1.7.1/2/3 did not work in PS3. It is the same problem it was corrected in version 1.7.3. Fixed again.
- bug fixed: Issue with muxing PGS stream from several source files (i.e. append mode) fixed.

Thanks man, absolutely amazing work :)

[Glorioso]

Hope srt import will come in the next version!!!

[Warrex]

Even the DD+/AC3 track demuxed by eac3to has the same delay (I just tried it).

In this case it's actually an audio delay which means the video is starting before the audio, so in order to correct it, either the audio tack would need to be chopped off in the front or a delay would need to be added to the video track.

At this point, the only way I can correct this problem is with eac3to and "eyeballing" the delay. But what good is that really? More like a pain in the ass.

I've only seen one other movie that has things setup this way and it was an HD-DVD, and EVODemux reported the delay correctly.

Maybe you should give the newest version of eac3to a try (see changelog):

KILLER FEATURE!!! :thanks:

Would be cool though if tsMuxer could use a more user friendly and informative naming scheme for demuxed files (e.g. "track Info" + Audio Delay). File names are getting really long with mpls referring to multiple source m2ts!

Hi roman76r!
Thanks for all your hard work on tsMuxeR!

I used 1.7.6(b) today to remux Terminator II (EUR) HD DVD to BluRay (kept VC-1 video and DTS-HD audio).
Unfortunately tsMuxeR introduced corruption into a perfectly good video stream (source is clean).
I tried it twice, once with "remove pulldown" and once without. The corruption was the same each time.

Here is an example:

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/3471/snapshot20080414081227yv6.th.jpg (http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snapshot20080414081227yv6.jpg)


The muxer also complained about a total of three "bad DTS-HD frames" which I find highly unlikely.

Regards
S.

Can your send example of this movie? 50-100 Mb is enought.

[Lacix]

Hi roman76r,

I'm interested in the "Restore cropped video to full size" option in the General tab page.
Is it a feature developed in the near future ?
Is it possible to add black bars to cropped movies without fully reencoding them to become Blu-ray standard resolution ? (It is the main problem with the use of the AVCHD format.)

Great work.

[drmpeg]

The best I can get is 9500kbps to work on a video with 320kbps (cbr ac3) audio and 2200kbps max video. It generates 1.81Gb file from a ~400mb (vbr m2ts) source... any lower bitrate and it's vbv overlows all over. Perhaps bitrate has to be so high because I'm not setting vbv correctly?


tsmuxer asks for vbv in ms, how does one convert bits to millisecond?
The VBV in seconds would just be vbv size divided by peak bitrate. So a 9,781,248 bit VBV size divided by a 20 Mbps video rate would be about 1/2 second (500 milliseconds).

For Blu-ray, the vbv (or cpb) delay cannot be greater than 1 second.

You can use restricted VBR mode instead CBR mode. Setup max bitrate to required value, min bitrate to zerro. This is a mode same as CBR, but muxer does not insert NULL packets to stream.

What about the .srt support? Any News?

[B4tm4n]

For roman76r.
SkyHD (h264) files are playing with no video just Audio when remuxed with tsMuxer, with all default settings. This is version 1.7.6.
If I go back to version 1.6.3 and remux they play fine with both audio and video.
MKV remux and play fine with the latest version, its just the SkyHD h264 .ts files are not working.

Oh this is playback on a PS3.

Heres a sample of a file pre remux.

I'm new to the software and indeed PS3s. I've tried creating a blue ray disc from an MKV and I get a large green area at the bottom of the screen (fine on PC). I believe its a pixel size issue? Is there any solution to this issue?

Also, whats the best format to output in if I want several movies on one blue ray disc on the PS3?

[arrgh]

Hi,
version 1.76 does not recognize subtitles in VOBs. I assume it's known, but still a pity.
I wanted to fuse 2 DVDs (part 1+2 with 2 audio and 2 subtitiles) to one single BluRay, to spare me the shuffling...
The audio streams are recognized, but not the subpictures.

So I demuxed them with VOBedit and transformed the sup-files (which were not directly readable by tsmuxer) with SUPread to BluRay-format. Those were recognized by tsmuxer. The muxing went ok until the mpls and clipinfo were generated. Here I got the error:

Creation of Blu-ray stream info and seek index.
Bitstream exception.
(Mux complete. Return code: -3)

There is no clipinfo-file generated and the mpls seems to be a little bit short considering, that I wanted to have every 5mins a chapter and the movie has over 3h.

The resulting m2ts-file is processable through TSRemuxer and results in a playable BluRay. But no subpictures are displayed although they are selectable in the menue of PowerDVD.

Regards.

PS: I should mention, that watching the resulting m2ts I realised, that besides of the not displayed subtitles, also the audio-delay during playback changes. While it is ok at the beginning it starts to grow toward the end...
So in prinziple it would be good, if tsmuxer could read directly all streams of a vob file.

I'm curious if LPCM 7.1 is supposed to be supported or not? I've ripped my X-Men- The Last Stand Blu-Ray and am trying to make a .ts file that is compatible with the Popcorn Hour. I took the DTS-HD track (which is 6.1) and converted to WAV with eac3to (it converted to 7.1 I assume by making two copies of the rear channel). I then attempted to use the latest tsMuxer to combine this track, an AC3 track, plus the untouched h264 video stream into a single .ts. It makes it about 48% through the mux and then crashes.

Any clues? Am I trying something unsupported?

Thanks.

It is a big issue with converting mkv files to Blu-ray format.
The video resolution in mkvs are mainly not in standard Blu-ray resolutions. (1280x720, 1920x1080)
You need to reencode the video to be able to put into a Blu-ray structure.

There is the m2ts output. (but for that I would use mkv2vob instead, because it does everything automatically to make the video ps3 compatible.)
On the other side with .m2ts you can only have 1 audio stream (only Dolby Digital, no DTS) and no subtitle on PS3.

The other solution is to make .mp4 (GOTSent), but it only support AAC for audio (more streams). (audio conversion needed. PS3 doesn't support subtitles in .mp4)

LPCM 7.1 is supported. But I don't have any stream example with LPCM 7.1. Can you send me first 50-10Mb of your LPCM track?
Also, please make following test: try to mux file without LPCM track. How you mux LPCM track? As wave file? What size of this file? It is more 4Gb?

I tried muxing without the LPCM track and it worked fine.

Yes, the LPCM is stored as a WAV. It is larger than 4GB (and I understand that some programs have issues with large WAV files as the format uses a 32-bit value to store the length) but I've never had problems with other 5 or 6 GB WAV files in the past.

I'm happy to cut a chunk of the file and send it to you. Do you have an ftp site I can upload to? Also, is there a utility I can use to cut off a portion of the WAV file?

Thanks again. By the way, your program is AWESOME. It has helped me convert all my HD-DVDs and BluRays to .ts with minimal work on my part.

Hi,

As far as I know you cannot play BD5 or BD9 on the PS3 (fw > 1.80). You can only play AVCHD (on DVD, memory stick or hard disk)

Tsremux generates AVCHD structure (from NERO ?) but, does tsmuxer generate an AVCHD structure or an BD one ?

I generated yesterday with tsmuxer a sample BD, splitting the input m2ts into two 1Gb m2ts files. I copied the resulting BD structure into a FAT32 hard disk, renaming all files to be 8.3 compliant (e.g. m2ts -> MTS), but it did not work in the PS3

When doing something similar with tsremux (except that in that case the output file was a single m2ts) it worked perfectly, identifying the hard disk as "AVCHD" and playing with subtitles etc (VC1 + ac3)

It would be very interesting to be capable of generating AVCHD disk structures, with files > 4 Gb (FAT32 limit) to be played on a hard disk on the PS3....

Any ideas ?

I have potentially a stupid question/possible request. Version 1.76 is absolutely brilliant in allowing us to read the mpls! KUDOS for that! However, on Enchanted there are m2ts' that belong to some special features mixed in with the main movie. (001xx=main movie, 004xx=special features). Is there any way we could be allowed to manually massage what's selected? Make some checkboxes around each m2ts file that's read out of the mpls? That way we could manually unselect the ones we don't want to keep. It's just a thought. Thanks!!

On the movie "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead", DTS-HD worked flawlessly.:confused:

Hi,

Wrt my previous post (see below) I made a mistake. The files I copied to the hard disk were still with the four letter extension.

According to the AVCHD specification, the files on a built-in hard disk or a MS/SD card have to be named as 8.3 files. That means the streams are called .mts. The following changes are needed:
o index.bdmv -> INDEX.BDM
o MovieObject.bdmv -> MOVIEOBJ.BDM
o *.mpls -> *.MPL
o *.clpi -> *.CPI
o *.m2ts->*.MTS

(source http://forums.pinnaclesys.com/forums/permalink/150878/152962/ShowThread.aspx#152962)

You have to put the full BD disk structure within a AVCHD folder in the external USB hard disk root.

When doing this I WAS ABLE to play a VC1/ac3/subtitles AVCHD from the hard disk. It was created using tsmuxer, splitting the original "big" BD file on smaller chunks (FAT32 compatible).

I did not try with a full BD, but it should work w/o problems.

This is a great way of playing BDs in PS3 without the need of a BD burner. Of course you do not have menus, and I do not know whether all audio codecs are supported (we may start collecting what works and what doesn't)

It would be good if tsmuxer could create the structure directly with the 8.3 files (as an option for the BD creation).

Concerning whether the PS3 can play BD5 or BD9... I believe tsremux is not creating BDs but AVCHDs..... (like tsremux), and this is why it works... I have a BD9 DVD that I burnt with tsremux (early times of tsremux) that was working in PS3 (fw 1.8) identifying it as BDMV. With later versions it does not work.

@jaga, why change a running system? my bd5/bd9 works fine, all of them were created with tsmuxer ;)

[jagaskywalker]

I am not sure what you mean by "change a running system". I only suggest to add an additional option to save the files in 8.3 format, so we can copy them in an external FAT32 hard disk and play them with the PS3

tsmuxer works well.

My feeling is that it is producing AVCHD, instead of BD (but maybe I am wrong, I have no bluray burner so I do not know if when burnt on a BD disk it appears as BDMV in the PS3, or as AVCHD.....)

I have been having the same problem. I have been using MediaCoder and it isn't showing the HD audio being present. I originally started a few days ago trying to learn how to encode Blu-Ray and I started using by using tsRemux and I was able to successfully do a couple files and I tested them in MediaCoder and the were working. I then started researching how to merge the .m2ts files and had downloaded a few apps and installed some different programs that I wanted as I had just reloaded Vista Ultimate SP1 just before I started researching BD encoding. After I got my files merged I ran them through tsRemuxer and I started having the HD audio issue. So I went and uninstalled all of the programs I originally remembered installing and tried again with only some of the original ripped .m2ts files and I was still having issues with the HD audio. I started looking for other apps and found this app tsMuxeR however the results remain the same.

I am now in the process of wiping the slate clean on the computer I was using and installing a fresh copy of Vista Ultimate SP1 and I am going to try again in the hopes that one of the programs I had installed was interfering with the muxing process.

I will post my results for you.

Hey all.

I've been trying to convert one of my HD-DVD's to a TS file (The Good Shepherd), but it constantly fails at the same point.

I'm using the raw EVO files, and appending them to each other in tsmuxer (I do get a warning about some streams being unrecognised, hence ignored). I'm selecting the video and audio channel I want, and enabling the "remove pulldown", as well as changing the framerate to 24000/1001 for video.

When I start muxing, the tsmuxer executable crashes when it hits 8.7% (I retried it twice with the current version, 1.7.6, and the previous 1.7.3).
The actual GUI doesn't crash.

Seems to suggest something weird in the stream itself. Anyway for me to debug this, or send information to you lot to fix it (if it is a bug in the program) ?

[badonj001]

Well I reinstalled Windows and all of the apps I remembered having installed and I still no luck. Maybe I imagined it working?? :confused::confused::confused: Sorry for the false Hope...

Backups muxed with these audio streams enabled will not play. If the same file is muxed without the audio (or just AC3), it plays just fine.

Any ideas?

True-HD stream not work on ps3 ,DTS HD is ok

I am playing BD-r on my Panasonic BD30 that supports everything.

There has to be a difference between AVCHD and BD. Does a "normal" BD structure (from a BD disk) work on a DVD ? (with a m2ts file fitting within a DVD9), with menues, etc....

I believe the PS3, after fw 1.8, changed something because in past fw versions DVDs were identified as BDMV (and maybe supporting "full BD specs") and now they either do not load (disks made with tsremux at that time do no longer work) or load as AVCHD...

tsremux and tsmuxer creates idential index.bdmv and MovieObject.bdmv.
PS3 displays "AVCHD" on DVD-media and "BDMV" on BD-R(E)-media.

[wakebrder]

I have been having the same problem. I have been using MediaCoder and it isn't showing the HD audio being present. I originally started a few days ago trying to learn how to encode Blu-Ray and I started using by using tsRemux and I was able to successfully do a couple files and I tested them in MediaCoder and the were working. I then started researching how to merge the .m2ts files and had downloaded a few apps and installed some different programs that I wanted as I had just reloaded Vista Ultimate SP1 just before I started researching BD encoding. After I got my files merged I ran them through tsRemuxer and I started having the HD audio issue. So I went and uninstalled all of the programs I originally remembered installing and tried again with only some of the original ripped .m2ts files and I was still having issues with the HD audio. I started looking for other apps and found this app tsMuxeR however the results remain the same.

I am now in the process of wiping the slate clean on the computer I was using and installing a fresh copy of Vista Ultimate SP1 and I am going to try again in the hopes that one of the programs I had installed was interfering with the muxing process.

I will post my results for you.

I am thinking the problem is movie specific.

My results:

I Am Legend: Works with True-HD down converted to AC3.

Walk Hard: Works with True-HD down converted to AC3.

Juno: Works with AC3 track selected for muxing.

AVP2: Works with Fra/Spa AC3 track selected, English DTS-HD does not work no matter what settings I use.

Before The Devil Knows You're Dead: Works with DTS-HD selected.:confused:

I will continue to post results for different films as I back them up. Hopefully it might save some people some time and frustration.:)

The only difference is what kind of disc it is burned to. If I put a BD structure on a DVD, my Panasonic BD30 reads it as an AVC-HD disc. If I put the exact same files on a BD-R, it reads it as a BD disc.

[wakebrder]

Hey all.

I've been trying to convert one of my HD-DVD's to a TS file (The Good Shepherd), but it constantly fails at the same point.

I'm using the raw EVO files, and appending them to each other in tsmuxer (I do get a warning about some streams being unrecognised, hence ignored). I'm selecting the video and audio channel I want, and enabling the "remove pulldown", as well as changing the framerate to 24000/1001 for video.

When I start muxing, the tsmuxer executable crashes when it hits 8.7% (I retried it twice with the current version, 1.7.6, and the previous 1.7.3).
The actual GUI doesn't crash.

Seems to suggest something weird in the stream itself. Anyway for me to debug this, or send information to you lot to fix it (if it is a bug in the program) ?

I have sucessfully converted the HD-DVD "The Kingdom" to a BD structure that plays in Nero Showtime, but when I burn to a BD-RE, my Panasonic BD-30 displays choppy video with no sound.:confused:

Try leaving tsMuxers settings at default, and also checking "no chapters" under the Blu-ray tab.

[duramaximus]

I just upgraded to 1.7.6 and I keep getting this pop-up.

"List index out of bounds (0)" :confused:

I am adding the first (Main) m2ts file when this happens.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Duramaximus

Want to say thanks to you Roman, this program is wonderful and I have been doing many things with it. However there is a bug with the MPLS feature. When I added the MPLS for Walk Hard it adds the proper .m2ts files as it should and combines them. However when I click 'Start muxing' and try to output it as a .ts, m2ts, or demux it I get this error message: "Can't find MPLS file for stream I:\BDMV\STREAM\00000.m2ts"

There doesn't seem to be a way around it and it says this for every .MPLS I try.

Walk Hard worked for me, 00001.mpls is the theatrical version and 00002.mpls is the unrated version.

I did have problems running the output of Walk Hard through Ripbot. Ripbot only encoded half the movie then stopped.:confused:

[nekowhizz]

I'm getting the message "Bitstream exception. It does not have to be! Plase contact the application support team for more information." when I try and remux Alexander The Final Cut BD.

The file is in fact the m2ts from disc's one and two merged using "copy /b" because this on two discs in Blu-Ray is shocking and lazy so I wanted a one Blu-Ray solution.

Hope you can fix this, and amazing program:thanks:

Hi, I have successfully created videos using this great program, Tsmuxer with 5.1 LPCM and streamed them from my Vista 64 PC to my latest version 2.3 PS3 80gb with no problems. When I try 310: to Yuma using the 7.1 track I get a corrupted data file when trying to stream it. Is 7.1 not supported or am I doing something wrong? I do have a receiver that will handle the 7.1, Integra 7.8. Also, I am using Tversity as the media server. Thank you for all the great work on the terrific program Roman. Thank you for any help.

[wakebrder]

but PS3 users more than BD30

You're correct, but I already had a 360 when PS3 was released, so didn't feel the need for 2 consoles.:)

[mrr19121970]

I also had a problem with cars 'seamless branching' playing on the tvix 6500a. The playback after creating ts or m2ts with tsmuxer (1.63) would play fine on the ps3 or pc with powerdvd. however the playback would stick/jump at the seams on the tvix 6500a.

Now i just tried demuxing the video/audio with tsmuxer (1.63), running through h264info (22 alpha) and then muxing the new video and original audio with tsmuxer (1.63) and the result plays perfectly in the tvix.

does this mean there is a bug in tsmuxer ?

mike

@Roman. I tried this now with version 1.76b, and there is still the bump (followed by stutter then freeze) in the H264 video on the TVIX 6500 when muxing a seamless branching movie. The only way around this is the long winded demuxing, h264info and remuxxing. Please let me know if you need a sample of the problem files (00145.m2ts and 00148m2ts - each about 275mb)

Similarly I'm still having problems converting my HD-DVD collection to the TVIX 6500. The only was to get a clean conversion is to use evodemux, vc1conv and the tsmuxer to put it all back together. I get various problems using tsmuxer alone ranging from 'please resync' messages to tsmuxer encountered an error and had to end messages.

Thanks. Mike.

Custom chapter list is not working for me when creating a Blu-ray disk. When I go to the next chapter, PowerDVD or PS3 skips to the end of the movie and start over. Insert chapter every X minutes works fine.

Update: Custom chapter list is now working fine. I was putting in 00:00:00:000 instead of 00:00:00.000 (period instead of colon on the left)

Load the .MPLS in then remove it and load in the corrosponding m2ts file, the chapter list are still there from the .MPLS load.
Then carry on as usual.

It takes a while to load 30-40 .m2ts manually when its able to just read the .mpls. I did do that the first time and it took me like 20 mins to do all the clicks.

Dear Roman. Thanks on you efforts on tsmuxer.

Can you please post a sample of a file with subs that we can test on other hardware ( namely PS3 ).

I have seen that with other videos-subs combinations PS3 works ok while powerdvd and vlc fail to display the subs.

Thanks for the awesome tool Roman!!!
Anytime I use the playlist support to create a single .m2ts file - playback goes out-of-sync after the first segment finishes. I take it playlist support does nothing with the audio to keep sync? This happens when I join h264 files with truehd.

tsMuxer will be read text in UTF-8 format only, but tsMuxer convert UTF-8 to UTF-16 before rendering text to graphic form. So, try to convert your chinese text to UTF-16 or send me text sample in UTF-8.

I've made something for those of us who are making these AVCHD rips on FAT32 drives. I got sick of renaming all those files so I've made a little AutoIt script to do it for you. You just need to place the .exe in the same folder as your BDMV directory sits and run it.

I really like the mpls feature in 1.7.6. In "The Game Plan", I was able to open the correct .mpls file and it appended the 92 .m2ts files. Nice.

One problem though. My player (popcornhour A-100) still doesn't like the transition points in the combined m2ts file. I tried demuxing the video and audio and then remuxing them back togeter, still no luck. Does tsmuxer fix up all the relevant timestamps (PCR, DTS, PTS, continuity counter) when appending?

Another seamless branching movie with similar issues is Enchanted.

I have the same problem with the tvix player


I had the same problems with the usual copy command on my poppy

BUT the mpls file and the append command from TSMuxer 1.7.6.b worked perfect on AvP!

So I think it depends on the disc-movie too.

I forgot: All my files are in .ts ! not m2ts

[mrr19121970]

Me too, the only solution seems to be to use H264info/VC1Conv to correct the video stream and then remux. Shame, I've posted this 'feature' twice already now but seems to be overlooked.

Hi all

Blackhawk has 2 m2ts files making the complete movie ,
problem is when I add each of them to tsmuxer 7(b) it comes 'back with not all files reconizied'


should I be worried about this ?

also is it better to muxer each file seperatley so they have one movie stream ,one audio and one PGS stream
ant than remux them together ??

any advice would be great :thanks:

I tried to remux both from the intial add and got no subtitles and the first
part of the movie has 2 audio streams
as does the second but the first audio stream is shorter than the first and the movie stops when the shorter audio from the first stream ends , and the movie freeezes

I don't think the PS3 is going recognise more than 1 AVCHD folder at a time, Hope I'm wrong and someone finds a way.

Instead of moving all the time, why not have a folder for every movie and inside an AVCHD folder? Like:

+Movie1Title
---AVCHD
+Movie2Title
---AVCHD
etc.

or will that not work?

And while we on the subject, Roman, will you consider adding the 8.3 naming scheme as suggested before as an option maybe?

When ever I convert a H264 BD or HDTV cap to TS with tsMuxer, the outputted .ts is not compatible with eac3to.

eac3to says "This doesn't seem to be a valid h264/AVC stream." when I load a ts from tsmuxer into it.

[n0mag!c]

Does tsmuxer fix up all the relevant timestamps (PCR, DTS, PTS, continuity counter) when appending?
@Roman76
Can you please answer this important question to all us, TsMuxer users&fans?
As I tested by myself early versions of tsmuxer it didn't rewrite DTS in H.264 streams 'cause Scenarist rejects such stream.

I have sucessfully converted the HD-DVD "The Kingdom" to a BD structure that plays in Nero Showtime, but when I burn to a BD-RE, my Panasonic BD-30 displays choppy video with no sound
I must inform, that when I convert HD-DVD to Blu-Ray with VC-1 video stream, then with "remove pulldown" I got BR stuttering on PS3. Without "remove pulldown" BR plays flawless on PS3. In both cases BR plays fine on PC.
Can anyone confirm it too?

[jagaskywalker]

I believe the reason for supporting AVCHD on HDD is due to the camcorders, so I doubt it will be possible to have multiple movies at the same time.

Using different partitions should work, as they would be identified as different disks (if the PS3 can handle HDD with multiple partitions...), but it is not very efficient

Changing the name of the folder seems to be the easiest (only) way.

(I do not know if AVCHD on HDD supports menues,.... if it does, you may always "author" an AVCHD con "n" movies... maybe using Nero to create the structure....)

Thanks to idbirch2 for the tool... would it be possible to include it in tsmuxer to do it in one go ?

Finally, what combinations of audio / video codecs have you tried sucessfully ? I have vc1 / ac3 working w/o problems.

Would Having a partition for each movie work, so that every movie is at the root of its own partition ?

[idbirch2]

I'm having a problem getting TSMuxer to recognise a standard DTS track, it says "Can't detect stream type: I:\potc.dts"

The DTS file is created by eac3to 2.41, converted from the Pirates Of The Caribbean PCM track. The DTS file plays fine in Media Player Classic. I've uploaded the first 50MB of it here (http://www.mediafire.com/?nznmwydmyyf).

Mpeg2/DD 5.1

I've only tried 3 so far.
One thing I've noticed is sometimes there is a slight pause, in playback, at the transition to next chunk of m2ts. But I'm using an old hard drive hooked up via an ide to usb convertor, and I think this might be causing this.

While trying to add an mp4-file which has been exported from EyeTV (Mac TV-Software) tsMuxeR 1.7.6 states "Can't detect stream type".

Playback in VLC is ok. It's Info-Window says it's an avc1 encoded video stream with 1920*1080@25fps and 2 Channel mp4a Audio, 48khz, 16 bit, 1536 kb/s.

How do I extract that 1 kb? (Windows and Linux also available)

In Linux:

dd if=input_file of=output_1k_file bs=1k count=1

"if" means input file
"of" means output file
"bs" means block size, which can use k, m, g suffixes
"count" means how many blocks of the above size (also may use suffixes)

I see national characters in notepad. How to check that? How about adding those missing bytes automatically?

[roman76r]

Atak_snajpera
Open a file in notepad. When select menu item "Save as". File subtitles.8.srt had encoding type UTF-8, file subtitles.9.srt had encoding type "ANSI". Current version can open only UTF-8/16/32 files, but not ANSI.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Current version can open only UTF-8/16/32 files, but not ANSI.
Will be difficult to implement ANSI support as well?

[crazyfool30]

Do the subtitles automatically output to the resolution of the video or do you recommend having different font sizes for 720p and 1080p?

[musidora]

@roman

The conversion with .srt is ok but it does not work with my box (freebox, french adsl box) because it does not support PGS.

On the other hand, it supports the dvdsub. Do you plan to support this format ?

The subtitles automatically output to the resolution of the video. Default font size optimal for 1080p resolution, for 720p you need to change size manually.

Roman, i'm starting with a 4.37gb file and i end with a 4.6gb project, cant fit it in a DVD-5, can i split it? Or is there any tool to trim some of the MKV?

[roman76r]

You can cut several munites from beginning and ending of flie by means of tsMuxer. Use split&cut tab.

[B4tm4n]

I've used a 1280x720 mkv and added srt subs. Its muxed to a blu-ray structure fine. When playing on a PS3 I can turn on and off the subs but no subs show up.
I'm using the AVCHD folder method to play from a Fat32 drive, I clicked on the split @4 GB option.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Hello,
Sorry for my bad English.
I have the same problem B4tm4n
Atak_Snajpera and Glorioso.

But, I have a temporal solution for 720p Movie working with subtitles.

-Open the Mkv and the srt with tsMuxer.
-Demux the Srt in sup with tsMuxer (720p)
-Open this sup with Supread, export this sup with supread (this new sup is 1080p but the position of the subtitles are correct for 720p).
-Open again the Mkv with tsMuxer, add the new sup 1080p of supread.
-Create the BluRay structure.
-Play with PS3, the subtitles show up correctly.



This is working for me.

TSMuxer v1.8.1 imports only subtitle.1.srt and subtitle.8.srt . Rest is omitted Why?
Because your other samples contain "space" characters in the empty lines. I'll fix it tomorrow.

Anyone have this issue? When I mux an LPCM stream in to an m2ts file, I get nothing but loud noise from the rear left channel... everything else sounds fine. What's the deal?

Roman

Sorry for my poor English first.

I also have got a message "Can't convert UTF-8 to UTF-16. Invalid source text". and I found that it's OK when the charset is set to "ANSI_CHARSET" and English font.

However TsMuxer said error message when it's set to "HANGEUL_CHARSET"(Korean) for Korean font. I believe that the other charset also have same trouble except English.

I hope that you can fix this soon.

Thanks again for your information. I have found the following bug: when tsMuxer converts 24-bit RGB color into 24 bit YUV color, sometimes several RGB colors correspond to the single YUV color(because initially YUV contains only 11.2 milions of colors, but RGB color space contains 16.7 millions). When it happens, tsMuxer forms 2 different records in the palette definition. It is not correct.

[stillsz]

I am using version 1.8.1(b) to convert Create Blu-Ray Disk, the Chinese subtitle can show up conrrectly in PC PowerDVD but not in Sony PS3 or in Panasonic BD-30, although it does have check box for you to choose Chinese subtitle.

I not sure about the subs yet, in the process of checking.
But the split function has been broken, in version 1.7.x a CLIPINF files was created for every split m2ts file but in 1.8.x theres only 1 CLIPINF file been created no matter how many m2ts files there are.

I'm putting the files from 1.8.x into 1.7.6 to see if it creates the missing files.

[crazyfool30]

The files aren't created if I aim tsMuxer to create the bluray files direct on to my FAT32 Flash drive or hard drive, but are created if I make the file on my local drive.
Now I've gone and dropped my only spare Hard drive and broke it so can't test a full movie.

My goal is to join the multiple .m2ts files together so they will stream to my PS3 or Tvix 6500. At this point the audio goes out of sync around 20 minutes in. I joined the files with tssplitter first and then ran them through tsmuxer (didn't work), and then ran the joined file through tsmuxer again and it didn't work. I have also tried a combination with tsmuxer and tsremux and nothing seems to work. I have seen that some have gotten this title to work on the PC, but has anyone been able to stream it successfully to the PS3 or other media extender such as the Tvix 6500. Thanks in advance.

@ maya: load the first m2ts into tsmuxer and append the rest. should work (at least for popcorn hour).

Titles I've tried succesfully: pirates 3, kingdom of heaven, departed, starhsip troopers, resident evil and some more which I can't remember right now :D

some are h264, some are vc1. no problems so far...

[dirkr]

Alien versus Predator worked for me too

With what audio stream?

I cannot for the life of me get DTS-HD to work on any Fox titles.:confused:

It is much easier to load the playlist. .mlps 00001 for the theatrical version or .mlps 00002 for the unrated version.:)

I have made a working backup on a BD-R disc that plays in my Panasonic BD30.

You will have to downconvert True-HD to AC3, which sucks, but apparently subtitles are more important than having the audio working first.:confused:

Whats the point of hearing something in True-HD if you can't understand it ? :p

The titles that you listed don't use seamless branching-the main movie file is just one big .m2ts file. I have been able to strem all of these to my PS3 or Tvix. What I am referring to is joining many small .m2ts files together to produce one large .m2ts file which is the main movie. Some titles are: Ratatouille, Close Encounters, Meet the Robinsons, Waiting. I was able to join the files together for Enchanted and The Simpsons and strem them successfully, but Walk Hard has the audio sync problem after about 20 minutes. Close Encounters would work, but occassionally it would start to stutter on the PS3 and I would just hit stop and then hit play and it would sync up again. Like I said, this process I have been using is hit and miss at the moment and it would be great if someone could tell me how to get these stremless branching titles into one successfully streamabe file.

I think madshi is working on seamless branching BD titles.

@Maya...

Please see my post on page 41. Try this:

Demux streams you want with tsmuxer/evodemux
Use VC1CONV/H264INFO on the video stream
Remux video & audio with tsmuxer

Try it. It worked for me on Cars (28 files)

Did you try opening the playlist in tsMuxer?

This will automatically open all related .m2ts files and treat them as one file.

Good point. I guess I'm just getting a little greedy now.:p

I posted this in another thread, but it seems maybe I should of posted it it and can get more help (I hope).

Ok. here is the issue I'm having.

First I demuxed the MKV to get the .264 and the .DTS file. Then
I loaded up my MKV into MeGUI using the the following avs script;

DirectShowSource("e:\video.mkv",fps=23.9760431376968,audio=false)
addborders(0,16,0,16)

Got the new .264 file, and used TSMuxer to load the DTS file and the new 264 file. Tried to make a Blu-Ray disc and a .m2ts file, both times I get video but no audio. Tried playing with PowerDVD, GOMPlayer and VLC.

I do have a 1-2sec grey flicker at the beginning of the video, but its fine the rest of the way. Something I'm doing wrong? I haven't tried it in my PS3 yet.
---

In the other thread, it mentioned to try to have both files in the same directory. However, I did have them in the same dir.

[spida_singh]

Try and use tsmuxer and load your new .264 file, and your ORIGINAL mkv file, select the new video, and deselect the video within the mkv file in tsmuxer. This will mux your new 264 and original dts into the blu ray structure itself, then all you have to do is burn it.

[Glorioso]

I cant make the subs show in PS3.

How do you do this?

[Atak_Snajpera]

Convert SRT to SUP (in demux mode). I use tahoma font size 72 (48 for 720p) ,bottom offset 96 (64 for 720p). Once you have sup file import it and mux into Blu-Ray structure. Only this method works at the moment.

[wakebrder]

How do you do this?

Hit add button in tsMuxer.

Navigate to your ripped BD folder>BDMV>PLAYLIST>00001.mpls. Open this file and it should append all the relevant .m2ts files.

00001.mlps will not always be the main movie, but it is in Walk Hard.

I just tried it, and tsmuxer says "can't detect stream type" What am I doing wrong?

Did you also try 00002.mpls? Are you using 1.83? Movie is Walk Hard region1?

There was the problem-I didn't know that the 1.83 version existed-will run things through and report back once I have tried playing the file on the 6500/PS3. Thanks for the help.

I think playlist support was intoduced in 1.73?

I would use the latest version just so we are all on the same page.

could you check on something?

tsmuxer will not read correctly evo files created by Nero Vision.

Long Story short, i'm trying to fit two shows on single BD disc. Nero Vision doesn't allow to create Progressive BD project. So I decided to create HD-DVD project with progresive then remux it to BD.

created files play fine in PowerDVD Ultra 7.3 from an image, but neither evodemux, tsmuxer or tsremux can open the files correct.

Hello:

Has anyone successfully used tsmuxer to generate a TS file containing one H.264 ES and one MPEG-4 AAC ES? I have one H.264 ES which could be successfully played by VLC and mplayer. However, I got the error message "Can't detect stream type" when I added this file into tsmuxer's GUI tool. Could anyone tell me how to solve this problem?

The firmware version of the tsmuxer I used is 1.7.6(b).

Thanks.

[Glorioso]

Convert SRT to SUP (in demux mode). I use tahoma font size 72 (48 for 720p) ,bottom offset 96 (64 for 720p). Once you have sup file import it and mux into Blu-Ray structure. Only this method works at the moment.
I've done that but same problem. When it was demuxing it said 1080p but my file is 720p, maybe that's the problem? PS3 recongnizes the sub dtream but i cant see them.

tsMuxer 1.8.4:

I expect what SRT subtitles will be work on PS3 without step with .SUP file generation.

Resolution for subtitles tracks detected by video track. If no video tracks selected, then assigned default resolution 1920x1080@23.976.

Try and use tsmuxer and load your new .264 file, and your ORIGINAL mkv file, select the new video, and deselect the video within the mkv file in tsmuxer. This will mux your new 264 and original dts into the blu ray structure itself, then all you have to do is burn it.

Thanks for this. I did this, and still couldn't hear the audio with any player I have (VLC, GOM, PowerDVD).

The audio plays fine inside the .mkv and on its own as a .dts, however when it's inside a .m2ts container, it won't.

So, after I muxed it together, I just tried to demux it again to see if the audio actully worked. It did. I then just went ahead and burned it anyways to try in the PS3, well it all played fine. Not sure why I can't get dts audio to play inside a .m2ts file on my computer side, is this a known issue?

I have been trying since yesterday with all intermediate versions of tsmuxer. All the times when I turn the subs option on PS3 on, nothing happens.

My sources are mkv files of popular tv seriers at 720p with english srt files.
I create blue-ray structure and burn to udf 2.5 dvd.
The dvd plays in PS3 as AVCHD.
I also tried renaming the files to 8.3 and copying to usb stick. Again this works as AVCHD, I turn on the subs but they do not appear.

I have played with many different font sizes and bottom offsets without success.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

First of all Welcome to the Forum!



only by re-encoding, tsmuxer is a MUXER (join audio and video) not a encoder
you must use something like ripbot264 or automkv or megui

BHH

would you happen to know of any good step-by-step guides for any of those?

[wakebrder]

Ripbot is easier to use than DVD shrink.;)

Open your source file, select profile and audio, select output size and go.

I've re-encoded many blu-rays to fit a DVD-9 with this method.

Encoding times are killer though. 20+ hrs on a AMD 4800 dual core.:eek:

You could shrink the files down with Ripbot, try to mux 2 files with tsMuxer and create a blu-ray disc structure, then burn with Img burn.I'm not sure if tsMuxer is capable of creating a Blu-ray structure with more than 1 playlist.

When it does not play, it does not play in both.

You need to edit the 1st line to point to your BDMV folder.

Maybe in a future version we can have a 'switch' in the GUI to direct tsmuxer to output 8.3 files..

I recently purchased a Sony HDR-SR11 AVCHD camcorder. I just tried tsMuxeR Version 1.8.4(b) to join the clips from the camera. I added the first clip then appended a few more. It correctly recognizes 3 streams.

1- H.264 Profile High@4.0 Resolution 1920:1080i Frame rate: 29.97
2- AC3 Bitrate:448Kbps Sample rate: 48KHz Channels 6
3- PGS Presentation Graphic Stream #0 Resolution 1920:1080i Frame rate: 29.97

I selected the output as M2TS muxing and it completed quickly without errors.

The problem is that when I try to open the joined file in Vegas Pro 8.0b it's recognized as a 1 stream file containing only stereo audio. The video and presentation streams are missing.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

@roman76

I just try to watch a movie on the PS3, and the video wasn't working. I try to demux the stream in tsmuxer, but I got a error. Invalid stream format.. soomething like that. It was the audio track the problem.

I used ripbot the convert the mkv but I copied the audio track, not reenconde it.

Is it possible to add the same validation(popup message, for the audio track.. invalid) when muxing the video+audio tracks with the command line?

I'm reencoding everything (video+ac3) and will mux it will 1.8.4 to see if I still got the error.

[NSI]

I've processed over 100 files with tsMuxeR. A big thanks to Roman for making, and continuing to improve such a wonderful tool.

Out of all of those files, I've had only a few (four so far) that caused the error, "Some tracks not recognized. This tracks was ignored." to appear when processing the AC3 track.

If I demux the MKV using mkvextract, the resulting AC3 checks fine with ac3fix, and ffmpeg has no problem combining it with the H264 video into a VOB. Even taking that VOB from ffmpeg and playing in on the PS3 is fine, and bitstream is decoded properly by my surround receiver. But tsMuxeR will still not load even that bare AC3 stream.

Like I said, it has only happened with a small percentage of the files I've processed. I'm sure there is something not quite right with the AC3 stream, but every other tool or player I have handle the file does without complaint. I'm guessing tsMuxeR is just not as forgiving.

Roman, if you would like chunks of any of these files, let me know how much, and I will prepare them for you.

What do you mean by AVCHD, as in not Blu-ray? Did you set Blu-ray or m2ts as output? If the second I didn't know that mode supported subtitles, I thought we needed a Blu-ray structure for subtitles to work.

[ymj]

The only difference is what kind of disc it is burned to. If I put a BD structure on a DVD, my Panasonic BD30 reads it as an AVC-HD disc. If I put the exact same files on a BD-R, it reads it as a BD disc.

Hi,
I have tried to put several movies/episodes in TsMuxer (with the add function):
- remuxed as Blu-ray
- burnt on DVD-RW
- put it in Panasonic BD30

but this does not work (at least in the BD30); however one file "converted" to AVCHD (blu-ray structure on DVD medium) works fine.

The challenge is: fit 2 or more files (e.g. mkv h264) onto one AVCHD DVD (or SD card)
Is there a way to do that ? perhaps needs something else than Tsmuxer... Ideally, one movie/episode would correspond to one chapter...

So it appears to be 48kHz. Also I just checked a few more files until I found one that presents the exact same AC3Filter Decoder info, and tsMuxeR was able to handle it fine.

PS: To do list; add black bars to non compliant files and a simple menu to "episodes disc" ;-)

If I understood you correctly, your idea would be to add one file and then append the remaining ones.
Then set the chapters so they start whenever in sync with each new file....

--> then I have trouble with sub titles... Would be a nightmare to sync them !?

--> Let alone having to tune the chapters so they're in sync...

Isn't there a easy way to have a multiple stream AVCHD that can take different videos as input (and associated subs) ?

Yes, I have seen it mentioned in the scenarist manual, though I haven't used it myself.

The HDMV format offers two ways of providing subtitles, presentation graphics
(see Chapter9, “Presentation graphics”) and text-based subtitles. Unlike PGs,
text-based subtitles are not converted into graphics. They are stored outside of
the main audio-visual stream, and therefore don’t affect the bandwidth or quality
of the main movie at all; instead, they are added to the main AV stream when the
BD player runs the title. This division of storage locations makes it possible to
provide more subtitle languages on a movie without taking up a lot of disc space
or compromising video quality.
Although they are not converted into graphics, text-based subtitles are positioned
and sized in text regions on the presentation (graphic) plane. Within each text
region are text boxes, which use text “styles” to determine font type, size, color,
text flow, and line spacing. Text styles can be changed character by character,
and can be altered over time to create fade-in or fade-out effects.

Will changing the 'level' of an h.264 stream affect/degrade the playback at all when playing it back on *any* hardware? Whether it is a stand-alone Blu-Ray player, or a media streamer like Popcorn Hour/IstarHD/TVix ??

The only way to get data on the PS3 HD is to copy it from one of its interfaces (flash media, USB, or optical), using its XMB GUI. I don't believe the GUI gives a Copy option for AVCHD.

If you were thinking of removing the PS3's HD and placing it in a computer to copy the data that way, it isn't going to work. The PS3's disk format is undocumented (and probably encrypted).

No.

In fact the "level" is just a tag to indicate to the player how large the decode buffer should be and what maximum bitrate to expect, along with other things for compatibly. That is the reason some players refuse to decode Level 5.1 tagged steams because no consumer gear is able to handle the requirements of Level 5.1 at this point. 5.1 will be used in things like 4K cinema.

So in fact what the level conversion is doing is really correcting the tag to match what the data really is. While a video steam conforming to Level 4.1 will also conform to 5.1. It is just the lazy way out for an encoder to tag everything as 5.1 because everything available today will fit into 5.1.

One final Q? if i split say a movie into 4gb chunks with txmuxer will the ps3 be able to read the seperate chunks without pausing or is it continuous playback

The XMB player (which is different than the Blu-ray player) of the PS3 only supports: PCM, AC3, and AAC audio. The Blu-ray player which is triggered by a Blu-ray or AVCHD disc additionally supports DTS and other HD audio formats.
One final Q? if i split say a movie into 4gb chunks with txmuxer will the ps3 be able to read the seperate chunks without pausing or is it continuous playback
If you just give the PS3 separate M2TS files you'll have to return to the XMB to pick the next part. But if the files are part of an AVCHD/Blu-ray structure with a proper playlist it will seamlessly move from one file to the next.

I just got a 250 GB HD for my PS3, and took the old 60 GB and placed it in an external FireWire/USB2.0 enclosure. This make for a very nice setup.

Thanks for that i imagined something would not be that easy, And i also realise that just copying over the .m2ts file for playback works but only with DD5.1 and PCM does nayone know if this now works with DTS-HD MA also if not then an external hard drive is probably the only option.

One final Q? if i split say a movie into 4gb chunks with txmuxer will the ps3 be able to read the seperate chunks without pausing or is it continuous playback

Thanks

The XMB player (which is different than the Blu-ray player) of the PS3 only supports: PCM, AC3, and AAC audio. The Blu-ray player which is triggered by a Blu-ray or AVCHD disc additionally supports DTS and other HD audio formats.

If you just give the PS3 separate M2TS files you'll have to return to the XMB to pick the next part. But if the files are part of an AVCHD/Blu-ray structure with a proper playlist it will seamlessly move from one file to the next.

I just got a 250 GB HD for my PS3, and took the old 60 GB and placed it in an external FireWire/USB2.0 enclosure. This make for a very nice setup.

I get a short break when it switches to the next chunk.


Thanks for that Guy's much appreciated, I have a few DTS-HD blu rays that i intend to have a play with and i assume this is also true with Dolby TrueHD the track will play with a blu ray structure file inside a AVCHD folder.

Thank you

[nekrosoft13]

can tsmuxer create a blu-ray disc with two movie files?

[founditalso2]

I get a short break when it switches to the next chunk.


I have this also. It's OK. I can live with it but it makes it 'not perfect' and definitely not as good as the original disk.
It is definitely not 'seamless' as NSI calls it.

Is there anything that can be done to Tsmuxer to make it more perfect?
(This being said, Tsmuxer is really a fantastic tool.):)

Thx. to roman for this great tool and his continuous support on it.
Sorry in advance if i've missed some answers here.
I've never tried to remux HD-DVD files with subtitles till today.
I know TSMuxer does not support sup files.
So i tried to demux sup files with EVODemux and renamed to SRT even i was almost sure it wouldn't work.
So as expected it didn't work.
Any way to fix this you may advise?
Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you Roman for this utility, it's really helpfull.

Big Q.: Why infront of demuxed LPCM (WAV) tracks I have 240 samples of garbadge which would make a loud crack when you try to play a file? I'm testing this on the infamouse Ratatouillie BlueRay and it really doesn't matter if I demuxe the very first m2ts or the one in the middle, they all have this, everything's fine on the joints. I can kill them in SoundForge but why I do have them in the first place and what are they? Is it a title issue or something else?

Thanks!!

Creating BD-5/9 H.264 with Menu and Titles using Nero 8, tsMuxer and hexedit
Create folders or make a batch

mkdir d:\BluRay\1
mkdir d:\BluRay\2
mkdir d:\BluRay\3
mkdir d:\BluRay\4
mkdir d:\BluRay\5
mkdir d:\BluRay\6
mkdir d:\BluRay\menu

A small video that is nero bluray compatable, I use an mpeg 2- 1280 x 720 x 59
Using Nero vision 5 with BluRay plugin select create BluRay, add the small video file however many times you want items on the menu,
on the menu creation section select background, rename files etc.

I have not had much luck with motion menus, they play in Nero Showtime fine but are “skippy” on the player.

At the end select write to hard drive folder d:\BluRay\menu, it takes about a minute to complete.

With tsMuxer load 1st pre-prepaired title and select create BluRay and set destination d:\BluRay\1
For the 2nd title write to d:\BluRay\2, 3rd to d:\BluRay\3 etc.

Then manually copy or run a batch

ECHO
rename D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\STREAM\00001.m2ts 00000.m2ts
rename D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\CLIPINF\00001.clpi 00000.clpi

COPY D:\BluRay\2\BDMV\STREAM\00001.m2ts D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\STREAM\00001.m2ts

copy D:\BluRay\menu\BDMV\MovieObject.bdmv D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\BACKUP\MovieObject.bdmv

Now you have the files in place at d:\BluRay\1 for your 4 title with menu BD-5/9 disk
Now using a hexeditor open d:\BluRay\1\BDMV\PLAYLIST 00000.mpls and change the reference from P00001M2TS to P00000M2TS. Then open 00002.mpls and change it to 2, open 3 and change it to 3, 4 is the menu and is already correct.

After that is done populate the backup directory or use a batch

xcopy /R D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\PLAYLIST\*.mpls d:\Bluray\1\BDMV\BACKUP\PLAYLIST\
xcopy /R D:\BluRay\1\BDMV\CLIPINF\*.clpi d:\Bluray\1\BDMV\BACKUP\CLIPINF\

Then Burn d:\BluRay\1

Plays fine on a Sony-300.

Will this work to create a blu-ray disc with 2 movies?

Will this work to create a blu-ray disc with 2 movies?
Yes, of course it works for 2 movies.

[ymj]

Yes, of course it works for 2 movies.

ok that's great.
But isn't there an easier way to have several movies on one AVCHD *without* creating a menu, but simply by having references to several movies in the playlist, and we could e.g. just skip from one to another by moving to the next chapter ? or something similar.

Adding a simple built-in menu creation in TsMuxer would definitely be a killer feature !

Do we really need as many playlists as the number of movies ?
Would not it be easier to use TsMuxer to create as many .m2ts as we want, then edit the playlist and point to each of those ?

[n0mag!c]

[jagaskywalker]

I was going to post about this .... I also get "visible" pauses between the "chunks". Actually, I believe we are missing some seconds... for instance, during the end credits, it "jumped" around 10 seconds (according to the times shown by PS3 when using the "SELECT" button)....

Maybe we can make tests with shorter clips to see if the pauses are independent of the disk duration ....

Is this happening when playing the movies using DVDs or software players like PowerDVD ?

This is most probably caused by the fact that when joining multiple m2ts files the audio data often overlaps slightly at the join points. Don't know how tsMuxeR handles this problem. If TsMuxeR sets the video timestamps to be continuous, the audio timestamps will overlap. If TsMuxeR sets the audio timestamps to be continuous, there will be a gap in the video timestamps. Either way, this can throw off media players.

Unfortunately, none ain't found yet.

Does anybody have solution for subtitle going out off sync?

I demuxed original m2ts in to RAW 264 1080p video, 640Kbps/48KHz AC3 audio, and eng sup.

After encoding video with MeGUI shrinking him down for DVD-9 with the same profile and resolution, and export eng sup with SUPred to srt and translate to my native language saving original timestamps. I tried to mux all back to blu-ray structure with new tsMuxeR. Everything went well except the subtitle. It is ok in the beginning, but after a while go out off sync.

Can Somebody help me with this?

I finally was able to do what you asked for and played the files with Nero Showtime 4 (part of Nero 8 with HD Plugin).

To my big surprize, I must say, NO problem at all this time. Seamless play from one stream into the other.

Strange because I used the same BDMV/CERIFICATE files made by Tsmuxer and split by Tsmuxer in 4GB parts.
I only renamed the files to 8.3 using IDBIRCH2's tool and put them on the USB HDD (fat32) in a AVCHD folder.

So, good question Jagaskywalker, but what do I conclude now? Is this a PS3 thing? Probably yes.
But than it makes the whole technique of using fat32 USB HDD connected to the PS3 a lot less interesting :-(

Is it related to USB HDD only or does it also happen with Images?

I also created an ISO with Imgburn which I did mount with Virtual Clone Drive, but neither Nero and PowerDVD wanted to read it. And the ISO is to big to burn it on a DVD-DL.

Maybe I should do a test with a smaller file split into 1GB sections which I can burn on a DVD-DL and see what the PS3 does with that? Don't have time now though. Maybe somebody else?

[act]

Yes, with the <i> </i> code

When I use this code it just shows op as subtitles instead of making the text in between italic?

My .srt is saved as UTF-8..

Has anyone tried the same?

You need to remux using 'create Blu-ray disc' option.
Once you've done that read some of the post here on how to play this from DVD or USB HDD.

Thanks B4tm4n.
But do you think it is handy to:
Demux with EvoDemux,
Remux to BD with TSMuxer,
Create an ISO folder with ImgBurn,
Mount image with DaemonTools
and finally watch with PDVD?

If i don't use subtitle, the process would be:
Demux with TSMuxer (just video)
Demux audio and re-encode with eac3to
Remux to TS with TSMuxer
Watch this remuxed file with whatever you like.

I've been trying to find out how to decode subs from (remuxed)TS files?

[laumymar]

@ Roman76r;
Would it be possible that tsMuxeR recognises italics subtitles from .srt files so that those subtitles appear as italics subs in the final Bluray disk;
For exemple: (French subtitles):

1139
01:29:54,100 --> 01:29:57,700
<i>Comme mec,
Paulie Bleeker est incomparable.</i>

<i>: beginning of italic
</i>: end of italic

Actualy with tsMuxeR they appear like that in the final Bluray disk:

<i>Comme mec,
Paulie Bleeker est incomparable.</i>

Thank you for your great work.

Hi Roman (and T.H.A.N.K.S for this great tool)

The funny thing is that I can already control font parameter with .srt subs and the current version (1.8.4b)
That is when creating an AVCHD.

Whatever I choose will be displayed accordingly (with my Panasonic BD30)

However I have to increase the offset otherwise the subs end up "underneath" the screen.

Isnt there a way to get the native subs from the player ?

Thanks agains (and looking forward to being able to create a multi-movie AVCHD !! :)

Personally I've had no major problems, that weren't user error. I play games on my 360 and watch movies on my PS3.

[buzman]

Firstly I want to say a big thank-you to the author. tsMuxeR is hugely streamlining the process of me watching mkv files on my PS3.

I'm having an intermittent issue with some mkv files however. I'm using the Linux version of tsMuxeR (v1.7.3(b)) to convert from .mkv to .m2ts, and on some (but not all) files I get this error:
tsMuxeR: ../vodTransport/src/nalUnits.cpp:203: virtual int NALUnit::deserialize(uint8_t*, uint8_t*): Assertion `(*buffer & 0x80) == 0' failed.
Aborted

If I run the same file (with the same .meta file) through tsMuxeR on Windows, I get a successful conversion.

Is anyone able to shed any light on the cause of (and solution to) this problem?

Thanks
Ben

[Momber]

Yup, that works.

Actually, it doesn't. Tsmuxer recognizes and muxes the converted subs but PowerDVD is unable to use them. It "sees" the subtitle track, with proper language flag, but no subs are displayed when I select it.

Right. My bad. While I thought the .meta files on Linux and Windows were the same, in fact the video and audio tracks were swapped (Windows auto-detects the track type of course).

So, anyone else who comes across this problem, you've specified the wrong track numbers in your meta file

Could you please fix this?

The Golden Compass is yet another title that tsMuxer will not produce a playable file, unless audio is left out of the muxing process.

Should I use the convert FPS from tsmuxer?

any tips?

Of course - that's what I always do. That doesn't address the subtitle problem I mentioned though.

Anyway, I got it to work by converting the HD DVD subs to SRT, instead of BluRay PGS, in SUPread. The srt subs display just fine after muxing with tsMuxeR. And with the added benefit of being able to pre-determine their size, font and placement. Nice feature!!

Another nice feature would be if tsMuxeR would allow us to set a subtitle track to "forced" or "display by default"... This would help with movies like Black Rain, where there are a few short sequences of Japanese dialogue that requires subtitles to display automatically.

Your mistake was the muxing to *.ts
If you want a ts, keep your srt subs separate and use DirectVobSub to display them. Be advised that VobSub kills DXVA if you were planning on using hardware acceleration.
Otherwise, mux everything to BluRay and let PowerDVD do the decoding.

[rica]

Thanks momber, i'll give it a go.

With MKVToolnix or Avidemux, i can open correctly the video.

I make 2 sample with MKVToolnix :
- A sample with just one video track and one audio tracks (http://nsv13.free.fr/avidemux/Test1.x264.HP.He-Aac.{Fr}.mkv) (2MB).
- A sample with one video tracks, 3 audio tracks, 3 subtiltes (original rip) (http://nsv13.free.fr/avidemux/Test2.x264.HP.He-Aac.{Fr-Eng-Com}.St{Fr-Eng-Com}.Chaps.mkv) (1MB).

I'm talking about the second test file;
what program are you using to watch this video with subtitle?

For read the video, i use VLC

Any solution to converting these videos in TS ?

[SeeMoreDigital]

Hi roman76r would you please consider adding pal audio speedup/slowdown
as a future option like eac3to ? thanksThat would be an interesting option :)

Given the overwhelming interest with regard to placing, audio, video, subtitles and chapters within "transport" containers, I'd like to see TSmuxer add support for muxing MPEG-4 part-2 video ;)

[rica]

Your mistake was the muxing to *.ts
If you want a ts, keep your srt subs separate and use DirectVobSub to display them. Be advised that VobSub kills DXVA if you were planning on using hardware acceleration.
Otherwise, mux everything to BluRay and let PowerDVD do the decoding.

OK.
This is the procedure i followed:
Export Sup > OCR All > SRT > Save as SRT (in SUPRead)
After i remuxed to BD.
I tried reading this file with PDVD7, PDVD8 and TMT; no subtitles.
And gave it a go with GraphEdit using DirectVobSub (of course no expectation of HA) and here it is; no sup (BTW, i couldn't use sub as standalone):

http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/5536/directvobsubmf8.th.jpg (http://img205.imageshack.us/my.php?image=directvobsubmf8.jpg)

Then, using the same raw files, i remuxed to mkv with MkvMergeGUI and i got sup this time (tried with GraphEdit and WMP)

http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/6890/mkvnewbw6.th.jpg (http://img514.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mkvnewbw6.jpg)

There must be still something wrong?

I haven't tried with AAC yet but with other audio formats and without subtitles you can convert to TS.

I do have a question..

I do not have a PS3, and do not plan on owning one (lack of IR receiver is my sticking point for that).

Is it possible to use tsMuxer, to keep the video + the *DTS* audio stream, and output it in the blu-ray structure or AVCHD, and be able to play it on a stand-alone Blu-ray player from either a DVD-DL or BD-R disc?

[mcpdigital]

Thank you. Great work.
I'm using it a lot to create m2ts files playable in the PS3 with AC3 5.1 ch.

If you check this thread you will find most people have reported this method rarely works on standalone players. If however, you want to use a HTPC to watch your BDs you should be fine.

P.S. Many thanks to the author - this is an incredible piece of software.

[sebsnake]

Hi,

I'd like to say a huge "THANKS" to roman for this great tool. A chance for all video lovers !

I'm facing the problem that PGS subtitles are not recognized by my player, which is able to understand standard DVBS subtitles. Roman, do you still consider making this subtitle format possible with tsMuxer ? I think a lot of people would appreciate this. I can give you a sample ts with dvbs in it.

Thanks again. Seb

[Momber]

Obviously! Only what exactly, I don't know. Since this method works brilliantly for me under XP, my guess is the trouble is with Vista. But it's only a guess...

Hi
can help somebody with this problem. I've no idea how I can increase the AV buffer
in the box below is one stream of the movie and i wanted to connect both with "append" but when tsmuxer has one stream complete and start to append; the error message "AV frame too large (65538 bytes). Increase AV buffer."
appears I also have tried to join the files with TSSplitter but when i try to use the joined file the same errors appears when one stream ends

I just ran into this same error. First time I have ever gotten this error. I am also trying to join 4 M2TS files with AVC video and PCM audio.

[iLLusiOnS]

I really thank you roman for this perfect tool. Everything is ok now like several auido and several subtitle for the movie. it was just a dream to watch episodes of lost with srt subtitle last month , but it's true now.

The next dream is to store all HD movies in a AVCHD directory of a harddisk with a menu and add or remove movies to this structure.

For example , I have an external 750 gb hd and about 20 hd movies. It would be super if I could put all movies in this structure with a menu. And add new ones when I have or remove some of then when I dont need . So I could watch all movies when I plugged hd to PS3

Will it be only a dream ? Or can be true in close future ?

I hope you may forgive my poor english :-)

Same here, I've mentioned this before only I've tried to demux LPCM WAV from Ratatuile, it's always happening on the same place at the end, but because movie is splited into hundred pieces I can always pick the last one and try, it's always the same. Think it's a bug in the movie which is crashing demuxing.

Is there any fast solution to add borders and recode your video to be bluray standard 720p?

The funny thing is that I can easily join a BluRay (Enemy of the State) that already has LPCM with tsMuxeR but when I make my own PCM/WAV's it doesn't let me join the files or when I do it as one big >4GB WAV the movie starts out fine but then I get garbled noise/screaching. I am completely baffled.

That´s easy to tell it´s already "a wonder" you can use more than 2GB sized WAV-Files. The 4GB wall is already a tricked version of original WAV. This is because of file-format-restrictions.
Good old billyboy didn´t think that file-format would become that famous.

On the other hand....4GB of WAV is a LOT!
I guess....it´s a full movie in WAV right?
Isn´t there a way you can go to "flac" instead WAV?

[lexor]

Hi guys, can someone tell me if this behavior is normal?

If I don't check "Continually insert SPS/PPS" checkbox I only get 1.5x fast forward speed. If I enable it I get all speeds.

According to other posts I've read in x264 threads SPS isn't needed for decoding it only is there so that Scenarist and Co will play nice with the stream, and pengdavo even said that he won't add that option to x264 on account of it being "stupid" (or did he call it retarded? I can't remember, it's one of those). Since I don't use those tools, I really shouldn't need to use that option.

Tested on tsMuxeR 1.7.6 and 1.8.4, both exhibit identical behavior. It doesn't make a file size difference (that I can notice), so I don't mind leaving in on, the purist in me wonders however if this is an indication of some error in the code?

Flac was already discussed a while back in the thread. Basically it can't be done, there is no way to insert flac into ts or m2ts without breaking spec.

As for the error, I'm sure Roman will be able to help if you tell him what the error is :)

I don't really care about FLAC now and about TS or M2TS,
possibility would be really interesting and I believe MKV would handle it (would try it late).

The error is:

"AV frame too large (49051 bytes). Increase AV buffer."

It's always the same, and always at the same place (3 minites before the end of "Rat movie").

The file on its own plays well in MPC, correct length is displayed, too.

It seems the file does not conform to a specific DTS spec.
If you run the file through PowerDVD is does not display the DTS spec file info but does play OK.
If you run the file through MediaInfo it shows it as a DTS-HD format and not a DTS file.
I guess this is why TsMuxeR Can't detect stream type

[Momber]

It seems the file does not conform to a specific DTS spec.
That's surprising, seeing as Surcode is used and loved by so many people.
And there are really not a lot of options one could set wrongly in Surcode:

Something strange about that file.... I just realised that although PowerDVD does play the file i.e. the time counter runs OK there is NO sound output!

As I mentioned before MediaInfo shows it to be a DTS-HD format and not a DTS format at 1.5Mbps.

I also converted the file to AC3 640kbps with “eac3to” and now the sound on the track can be heard fine and so I guess the file is not damaged, just in a non standard DTS format.

What about if you try to down the data rate from 1.5Mbps to the 768kbps options?

[Momber]

Thanks for your replies.
Personally, I think if the DTS file is good enough for both mkvmerge and Haali's mkv muxer, is good enough for AC3Filter to decode or, alternatively, pass through via SPDIF and is good enough for my amplifier to decode it, it should be good enough for tsMuxeR as well.

To me... it looks as though it's a problem with the DTS streams header.

Thanks for your suggestion.
Actually, I was starting out with a TrueHD track (one that doesn't have an ac3 core), using eac3to, so I don't think BeSweet would help. I'll try AC3 640 next time - unless roman makes tsMuxeR less picky with respect to DTS ;)

[Discoboy]

Thanks for your suggestion.
Actually, I was starting out with a TrueHD track (one that doesn't have an ac3 core)

Maybe that’s the problem i.e. why the DTS track was showing as DTS-HD as you converted it from TrueHD with no AC3 core to DTS and ended up with DTS-HD file header and but an actual DTS file.....? :confused:

[Momber]

@Discoboy:

Well, as you may know, eac3to expands TrueHD 5.1 to 6x WAV before it calls Surcode to encode DTS. So I don't see how any headers could have carried over...

[madshi]

Hey Momber! :)

Removing DTS zero padding...
Creating file "mini.dts"...
The last DTS frame is incomplete and thus gets skipped.
eac3to processing took 1 second.
Done.
Normally eac3to "convinces" Surcode to not add zero padding into the DTS stream. But some older Surcode versions don't obey, I've been told...

P.S: eac3to can only convince Surcode to not add zero padding if you automate DTS encoding through eac3to. If you start Surcode manually, it always adds zero padding to the DTS track. You need to run the final DTS file another time through eac3to to remove the zero padding. Many tools don't like zero padding.

Hey Momber! :)

Hi madshi!

Got any sleep lately? I doubt it ;)

Normally eac3to "convinces" Surcode to not add zero padding into the DTS stream. But some older Surcode versions don't obey, I've been told...

My version is probably not the latest. I can't find any updates/patches on the Minnetonka site though :(

C:\Programme\eac3to>eac3to -test

Nero Audio Decoder (Nero 7 or older) works fine
Sonic Audio Decoder (4.2.0.102) works fine
Haali Media Splitter (2008-3-29) is installed
Surcode DTS Encoder (1.0.21.0) is installed
MkvToolnix (v2.2.0) is installed

You need to run the final DTS file another time through eac3to to remove the zero padding. Many tools don't like zero padding.

OK, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your reply!
Keep up the great work on eac3to - it is appreciated!

I have a Question:
I have a Video (23.976 fps) and a Audiofile with a delay of 2503 ms.
When change fps in TSMuxer to 25 fps, I must change the delay to 2400 ms, because now the playback of the movie is 1,04x faster ?????

[Momber]

The fps of your video and audio files must match before you can even begin syncing.

[dorati]

Yes of course.
The Orginalvideo was 23.976 fps. The Orginalaudio has a Delay of 2503 ms.

I speedup the Audio to 25 fps with eac3to.

Now, Audio and Video is of course a little faster. So , I thing the new Delay must be 2400 ms. Is this right and I must incrase the delay of the speedup-Faktor (because the 2503 ms was for 23.976 fps) ???
Or TSMuxer is recalculating this intern, when checked "change fps" ?

I don't think TsMuxer changes specified delays and I don't think TsMuxer must do this. :)
It's on our shoulders.
And yes, delay must be 2400 (2503*24000/1001/25)

I recently discovered a strange bug in TsMuxer while compiling a BDMV with SRT subtitles. If the first subtitle starts at zero time exactly, subtitles won't show at all in the movie and the timings get completely screwed up. On a BD player the title was listed as having 100+ chapters while only 8 or so should be present...

Also, has anyone been successful in viewing subtitles from a HD-DVD converted SUP file with SUPRead? With the previous TsMuxer version they displayed fine on the standalone player (but not displayed on the PC with PowerDVD even though they were listed as present and active). What would be the recommended settings in SUPRead to convert HD-DVD SUP files to BD ?

I just did "Terminator 3" conversion and got working subtitles on PS3 (but not working in PDVD) with this SUPread settings:
Frame Rate=29.97, Type=Non-drop
Video was VC-1 and I didn't remove pulldown in TsMuxer. Actually, when I check "remove pulldown" on in TsMuxer on VC-1 video, playback is stuttering on PS3, although is fine on PC.

[Rodger]

Now I´ve Got A Problem....
I reencoded a Blu-Ray 1080p to 720p to make it "fit" to a DVD-R DL with both Audio-Streams (Core only) and 3 subtext files.

What I didn´t think of....those subtext files have a resolution?!
Is there a way/workaround to make those work with my reencoded movie?

I always run VC-1 video through VC1Conv - it removes the pulldown and changes the framerate back to 24p/1001.

Use split function and remux to m2ts. Import first m2ts and remux to blu-ray. Then second m2ts and so on.

Hello,

I have a video (x264 + AAC) that TSMuxer can only open video track ("Some tracks not recognized. This tracks was ignored") : My x264 + AAC sample (http://nsv13.free.fr/avidemux/Test1.x264.HP.He-Aac.{Fr}.mkv) (2MB).

What's the problem ?

[Atak_Snajpera]

What's the problem ?
TSmuxer does not support AAC!

[EPiPH0NE]

That´s easy to tell it´s already "a wonder" you can use more than 2GB sized WAV-Files. The 4GB wall is already a tricked version of original WAV. This is because of file-format-restrictions.
Good old billyboy didn´t think that file-format would become that famous.

On the other hand....4GB of WAV is a LOT!
I guess....it´s a full movie in WAV right?
Isn´t there a way you can go to "flac" instead WAV?


Yes >4GB is a whole DTS-MA -> WAV transcode. Multi channel FLAC is not supported on the NMT as of yet. I have been successful in splitting the M2TS files into <4GB chunks and then doing the DTS-MA -> WAV conversion but cannot rejoin the files with tsMuxeR w/o it crapping out and giving the error I posted above. I have tried inputing these WAV's into Scenarist BDA 4.2 but MUI generator doesn't like the channel config that's in the WAV headers.

Hello,

I have a quick question for you guys...I've finally gotten english subs hardcoded to my AVCHD DVD-R DL 1080p MKV copy of Vexille...the only problem is that when I remux the video, audio & .srt files w/tsMuxeR, the subs are slightly too low...part is off the screen...under the "Subtitles" options there are several options & I wanted to know which ones I needed to adjust to fix my problem...there is the Addition border, pixel: 1
what will that change? Also, I know I need to adjust the Vertical Position: Bottom Offset Pixels: 16
but which way do I go? Do I need more or less? I would say 3/4 quarters of the words are below the screen w/the default settings. I would really appreciate any help I can get, I'm soooooooo close!!
Thanks

[Momber]

You need to increase "Bottom Offset". By how much you'll have to find you yourself by trial&error... it depends on your font face and size.

Yes but those flags are evil! They need to go!!!
Stupid HD DVD "feature" - soiling perfectly good progressive 23.976 fps video with idiotic flags pulldown=1, interlaced=1 and fps=29.97... I'm really glad that HD DVD is a thing of the past!

I use vc1conv too, btw, because using the "remove pulldown" function in tsMuxeR has resulted in (BluRay-) videos that go jerky after an hour or so of continuous playback in PDVD (in spite of ReClock being active).

S.

[n0mag!c]

Sounds pointless without any explanation. :)
If we're talking about TVs, then they can't show at REFRESH RATE 24Hz, 'cause it's flickering as hell. At their best they can:
- do 2:2 pulldown
- do 2:3 pulldown
- interpolates frames at double (triple) rate
I prefer last ones. :)

@roman

Do you have an idea when DVBSUB is ready ?

I can understand that it can take times it because I read the specification and for me is not easy !!

If you need a beta tester don't hesitate to tell me !!

[Momber]

Sounds pointless without any explanation. :)
The flags are grossly wrong! Grossly wrong equals "evil". What else is there to explain? The video is neither interlaced, nor should it suffer from a mandatory 2:3 jerkdown, nor is it encoded at 29.970 fps (if we're talking about cinematic movies here). How much more wrong can they be?

If we're talking about TVs
Well I'm not talking about TVs, but proper home theatres, with a projector running at an exact multiple of 23.976 and a player, such as a properly configured HTPC with PowerStrip and ReClock, who is feeding the projector just that.

No offense, but anything else is just a compromise.

HTPC (and other PC) always treates pulldown flag in proper way.
P.S. For me projector is nothing else than just a compromise to contrast, sharpness, black/white level and convenience. I've chose 70" samsung LCD. :)

[Momber]

Yeah, unless you have to rely on the likes of Cyberlink to fix other people's mistakes (e. g. of the braindead HD DVD inventors). LOL. They can't even fix their own bugs.

All the VC-1 streams I've remuxed to BluRay and played back with PDVD8 so far without removing those flags have caused trouble, either in the muxing process itself, or during playback. None of the VC-1 streams processed with vc1conv before muxing have caused trouble. That's all the proof I need...

[Momber]

You need to run the final DTS file another time through eac3to to remove the zero padding.

That sorted it! Thanks a lot, madshi!
Sounds bloody nice, too, btw. Transcoded using -libav.

Atak,

Thanks man, got it working flawlessly!! Thanks for the heads up!! I increased the size & vertical height (I also switched to Tahoma which looks better but I probably should've gone w/Comic since I'm using an anime movie) The only problem (not really a problem) is that the subs have to be chosen instead of hard-coded. The audio is Japanese so I will always need the subs. Do you know what I would need to do to hard-code them? :thanks:!!

~Vince

[crazyfool30]

Do you know what I would need to do to hard-code them?

You need to get VSFilter.dll (google it) and include in your avisynth script:

loadplugin("D:\VSFilter.dll")
TextSub("D:\ExampleSubtitle.srt")

The file paths are just an example, you need to change them to wherever your .dll and subtitle files are saved.

Hey how can I get the video of my 1080p file to play properly on the PS3?
I remuxed my 1080p mkv file with AC3 sound in Tsmuxer.
It plays normaly on my PC but on the PS3 there is a black screen.I heard the same problem mentioned somewhere before.

Re-encode :)

[Momber]

You would need to re-encode your entire video! Very time consuming and accompanied by a loss of PQ.

But like I mentioned earlier, it would be nice to have an option in tsMuxeR to set any subtitles to "forced" while muxing to BluRay...

I'm having a terrible time with it, I've tried to encode '300' to x264 several times and each time, the video is jerky, which I assume is the Pull Down problem. I've tried graphs, muxed m2ts, dumuxed vc1, and just a plain copy of m2ts from anydvd and I ran the vc1 through vc1conv and it's always jumpy and stutters.

Hi,

Q1) Have you tried with other VC-1 sources?

Q2) Don't you see any jitter if you don't remove pulldown?

Q3) If you can cut it (as is), please upload a small piece so i'll give it a try.

[Slipshod]

@Roman76r

Would it be possible for you to add more options to the CLI version? I'm trying to automate some video processing from my R5000, and your tool works great if I use the GUI. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to automate the whole process easily via CLI. Ideally, I'd like it to be able to demux+create metafile so I can remux with the same metafile and keep audio in sync after mucking with the MPEG-2 video stream.

For anybody curious, I have two playback devices which are only flag-based for deinterlacing, so the "Progressive or Interlaced" flag on my video stream is causing horrible deinterlacing artifacts since the playback device is treating it as progressive video when it's really interlaced. If I strip the progressive flags everything plays back fine. In a perfect world you'd fix all of my problems and turn the whole demux/strip/remux process into a single CLI command, but that seems fairly niche.

Cheers,
Slipshod

Has anyone managed to add AAC audio into tsmuxer? If so, how was the stream produced and was it a raw stream or within a container?
I tried last night with a short multi-channel clip created via MeGUI using Nero encoder, but tsmuxer would not recognise it. I tried different file extensions and even tried muxing to mkv first but nothing worked :confused:

Thanks for the info. How do I produce the raw .aac stream. The AAC FAQ mentions FAAC encoder and Ivan and Menno front end. Is this the only way, or can the elementary stream be extracted from a mp4 or mpa container? I'm not very familiar with the AAC format, but am seeking a way to preserve as much quality as possible from the lossless HD audio formats, but without wasting space on LPCM files.

Cheers, Beastie.

Edit, on AudioCoding.com thet say "Note that the quality of FAAC is not up to par with the currently best AAC encoders available." Is there any way to produce raw AAC for tsMuxer using Nero encoder?

Studio created LPCM tracks work fine in tsMuxeR just not the WAV/LPCM tracks that you create yourself with eac3to. tsMuxer needs to incorporate multi mono wav input to work around the >4GB WAV limit. What I am tryin to do has NOTHING to do with TsRemux.

Hi,

http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1126872&postcount=1059

I would like to second this feature request. ATM I use the tsMuxeR to demultiplex HDTV DVB captures ( h.264 / AC3 ), then I use h264info to set the cropping flags in the h.264 headers to 1920x1080 and finally I remultiplex the streams to matroska. I would be happy if the change of the cropping flag could be done on-the-fly during the demultiplexing process, since it would save me one step and about 15 minutes of time in my workflow.

First, many many thanks to Roman for its excellent work with tsMuxeR !!

To convert an Mkv x264/AAC 6ch 1280x544 file in a BD-R Authored X264/AC3 6ch 1280x720 stuff playable into PS3, I have done a lot of job on the two primary streams to finish by a BD muxing of an MKV h264 stream with an AC3 stream for a correct result... except sound seems 10/20 ms late after picture !

To give you an idea : my only working audio process was :
-Extract aac 6ch with MKV Extract
-Convert AAC to "Sun PCM ?" AU stereo with Quicktime
-Convert AU PCM stereo to AC3 5.1 upmixed with Intervideo active filters driven by a Graphedit workflow...

Not very surprised by a light sound/picture offset...

Hope not to ask for a solved question :
Is there a way to use tsMuxeR to make the same muxing with a forced delay of -20 ms for the audio stream ? Or a work around...

Thanks in advance..:thanks:

PS: I have not found a direct working process to convert directly AAC 6 ch to AC 5.1 ...

Hello,

Nice tool you have here. I have run into a small problem though. I want to mux decompressed DTS-HD and TrueHD movie tracks from eac3to into TsMuxer, but TsMuxer does not recognize them. I have demuxed studio created LPCM tracks and they have an extra 4 bytes of data at each block header, while the PCM output from eac3to does not.

Any chance of supporting these PCM files, or multiple mono channel wav files, or large >4gb WAV(PCM) files?

For multi mono wave files...I hope it's coming soon :) I have had some problems with tsMuxeR not taking certain studio BluRay LPCM tracks. In those cases I eac3to.exe source.m2ts destination.wavs -> Scenarist BDA 4.3 -> tsMuxeR. I have been successful so far in fixing them this way.

[Pashator]

Suddenly I had an idea and tried to demux "bad" m2ts file (last file from Ratatu) using eac3to, here's what I had:

Hi need help,been going round in circles on here for some time, I have an 1080p MKV file containing H264 1920x800p fr 23.976 (have also tried MKV containing other resolutions ie 1920x1040), and DTS sound at sample rate 48khz 6ch, I want to convert this to blu ray so I can burn it to blu-ray disc and watch on my PS3. Have tried all sorts and several MKV files but cannott get sound or picture, am using the latest version of Tsmuxer and am changing the video level to 4.1 within Tsmuxer and burning to Blu Ray using Nero or Imgburn using udf 2.5.Comes up as AVCHD on the PS3 but get a blank screen and no sound when attempt to play, Am I just not doing something simple?.Would be eternally grateful if someone could help me out.The only success I have had has been to convert to MP4,but this is long winded and no good to me as cant go over 4gig.

[Atak_Snajpera]

It was explained hundred times! How many ref frames did you use for encoding?? Blu-ray requires 1080p or 720p!!!

While you are waiting a solution you can use a little patch to convert standard pcm files to pcm files accepted by TsMuxer:

Pcm2Tsmu.7z

Usage:

Pcm2Tsmu input.pcm

If input.pcm is a standard lpcm (without header) 6 channel, 24 bit and 48000 Hz you obtain a input_tsm.pcm with the headers.
If input.pcm is 16 bit and/or 2 channel, or you want other name to output you must use a syntax like:

Pcm2Tsmu input.pcm output.pcm -i 16 -c 2

Other values to channels (1-8), 20 bits, 96-192KHz may (or not) work.

The default may match a pcm obtained with:
eac3to input.dts output.pcm

I can't guarantee if this work:
eac3to input.dts stdout.pcm | Pcm2Tsmu - out_tsm.pcm

[lexor]

If I remux an mkv to m2ts with 1.8.4 and get a "B-pyramid level 1 detected. Shift DTS to 2 frames" message (but no errors), the stream will go out of sync on PS3 if fast forwarded at speeds above 1.5x.
1.7.6 handles the same files fine, anyone else experiences this issue?

Also that message is talking about DTS shift, while the mkv only has an AC3 track, is that normal?

This is limitation in the tsMuxer. I'll can to implement this feature, but I need example of the file with H.264 picture order 2

I have a small sample from you that I can upload. Just tell me where and how to do it.

[eclipse98]

Got some really wierd problem re-encoding 'Before the devil knows..' BD -- resulting m2ts file has pretty bad macroblocking in dark areas -- I was under impression that tsMuxer does not do any video stream re-encoding (it is pretty obvious based on how fast this nice little program works) -- this is my first H.264 encode experience so I am not sure if all H.264 BDs are affected or if this is specific to the movie.

Origianal m2ts file (using AnyDVD) plays without any issues (no macroblocking).

Can somebody try 'Before the devil..' re-encode and see if you get the same problem.

Thanks, Davie.

Roman, great tool BTW, <spasibo drug> :)

TsMuxer removes pulldown from H.264 and MPEG-2 just fine, but not from VC-1.

It works for me; it removes pulldown from VC-1 as well.

It is time to make a correction; yes, i've also found some vc1 files which never allow removing pulldown in TSMuxer.

I assume you're talking about converting HD DVD title to BD, right ? I tried 2 titles: Matrix Reloaded (VC1) and Transformers(H.264). Neither of them worked properly. Playback is smooth, but every 1-2 mins you get a frame that apears to be frozen for a second or so -- I am curious to hear which titles you were able to convert successfully and which failed. :thanks:

[jchappo]

tebasuna51,

You kick ass. Since you provided the source code would you mind if I suggest this feature be added to eac3to? If not, no big deal, just would be nice to do it in one step. Thanks again.

[ultratoto14]

Is there someone that knows how to compute additional bits spent in MKV to Bluray remuxing ?

I mean is it based on frame size, film duration, etc ...

No any title failed at conversion.
I meant the "pulldown removing" feature of TSMuxer fails in both some HD-DVD and Blu-Ray VC1s.
If you don't take care about this; no problem in converting them and playing of those re-encodes.
I suggest you to follow this way while converting HD-DVDs:
Use TSMuxer for video demux.
Use eac3to for audio demux ; extract audio (and convert to ac3) from EVO directly by this tool in one step. (and without any problem)
Use TSMuxer's "Create Blu-Ray disk" feature.

I tried with these media and have not met any problem:

Spiderman 3 (BD)
The advantures of mimi (BD)
Casino Royale (BD)
Terminator3 (HD-DVD)
Transformers (HD-DVD)
Serenity (HD-DVD)

BTW: I have a system which supports PureVideo2 HWA. And i prefer to re-encode my rips into HA capable x264 files.

DD+ tracks can't be played on PS3 as Blu-Ray. Maybe on other stand alone bluray players too. Maybe it can be played on multi-blue combo players. Thus conversion is needed.

When i open my file 00001.mpls, remane for 00000.mpls, with hexeditor, i dont see P00001m2ts, i see '00001M2TS, dont have the "P", i rename for '00000M2TS. Nero showtime open the blu-ray structure and show the menu, but when i click in link for the film, he dont open, and nero showtime say that file is corrupted. What i am doing wrong? Can anyone help me ? Thanks.
Ps: my ps3 arrive in next week, can i create a blu-ray structure with tsmuxer, with DTS ? they will play in ps3 ? i have many titles in mkv with DTS, i will have to convert for ac3?

I use HTPC/PowerDVD 7.3 for BD playback.

Every HD DVD I tried to convert to BD (Transformers, Matrix Reloaded, etc) while removing pulldown/change fps 24000/1001 did not work properly. Playback is very smooth, however every 2 mins or so the fame freezes/skips making the copy unusable.

[mrr19121970]

I've not really found tsmuxer a reliable standalone tool for HD-DVD (either lots of out of sync messages, crashes part way through or an unusable output). I've converted my 21 hd-dvd collection for use onmy TVIX 6500a using this method:

EVOMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO or VC1CONV (depending on the video)
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)

Some purists would also use eac3to to convert the audio too, but for my purpose this method is sufficient.

Similarly with Blu-Ray films that have streamless branching, the best results are like this:

TSMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)

Mike.

[Beastie Boy]

I've never heard of h264conv, and I can't find it either. Could you post a link to it please.

Cheers, Beastie.

[mrr19121970]

sorry, i meant h264info (see https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=138139&package_id=225029 ) - I also found version 22 alpha to be more stable than 23, 24 or 25 for this purpose

[madshi]

Similarly with Blu-Ray films that have streamless branching, the best results are like this:

TSMUXER (demux all required streams)

The only problem with this is that you may run into audio sync problems with movies that have a lot of parts. Especially noticable with AC3 tracks.

Hi
unfortunately, tsMuxeR does not recognize the transport-streams from Technisat's HD S2. Since TsRemux does it when renaming the ts4-file to ts (but I'd rather would use tsMuxeR), my question would be: any chance to make that happen in tsMuxeR as well?
I have several files on my computer and would be happy to provide a snippet for analysis.
Please let me know.

...but it plays smoothly on a PC only for a while, perhaps even up to an hour, then the jerkyness sets in also - in 100% of all cases I tried.

[Momber]

using this method:

EVOMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO or VC1CONV (depending on the video)
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)

I concur 100% with your recommendation, provided you mean EVOdemux (never heard of an EVOMUXER).
Another good option would be to use eac3to with eac3to_more_gui for demuxing (not for pulldown removal!), as it even allows batch processing.

TSMUXER (demux all required streams)
H264INFO
TSMUXER (mux all the streams back together)


OK, but why would you process ex-BluRay elementary streams in H264info? If they're movies, they already are properly flagged as 23.976 fps progressive.

I find if I do "BluRay-in, BluRay-out", I can do the remux directly in tsMuxeR, without demuxing or external processing. Most of the time anyway ;)

Actually, the HD S2 is a standalone Satellite Receiver. Its files on the harddisc can be downloaded via Ethernet or USB to an external harddrive and are stored as ts4-files there.

New version for Pcm2Tsmu (http://www.sendspace.com/file/8iy2b2).

Seems now work properly the STDOUT->STDIN with eac3to.
Remember the syntax:

eac3to input.dts stdout.pcm [eac3to_parameters] | pcm2tsmu - output_tsm.pcm [-i 16] [-c 2/4]

defaults: -i 24 -c 6

I think Yraen can include this new version in eac3to and More GUI.

Has anyone here had any success muxing AAC audio and .264 video into a TS container. For some reason, I can't get it to work correctly.
I have a .264 raw video clip which I can open OK with DGAVCDec, and play fine on my PC. I created a mp4 file containing AAC audio only, encoded using the Nero encoder via meGUI.
I opened the mp4 file in foobar and extracted the raw aac strem. I confirmed that the aac stream plays correctly in foobar. So basically, I have 2 streams which independantly play OK.

I load both files into tsMuxer and output a .ts file and all goes well. However, on playback the video is garbled. I even tried muxing the .264 video into mkv first but this didn't make any difference. Any suggestions anyone?

Cheers, Beastie.

Has anyone here had any success muxing AAC audio and .264 video into a TS container. For some reason, I can't get it to work correctly.Yes... I'm able to play such files in my hardware player, with correct channel mapping.

Yes... I'm able to play such files in my hardware player, with correct channel mapping.

Well, at least I now know it's possible. What were your video and audio specs, HD/SD video, VBR or CBR audio etc. Maybe I can track down which part of my streams is causing the error.
I was using 1080p video straight from HD DVD (Ironman trailer fron the Transformers disc) and VBR LC audio with an average of around 640kbps.

To correct a wrong channel mapped multichannel wav file you can use WaveWizard, but is better create the multichannel directly with a proper soft: eac3to, foobar2000, AviSynth methods (BeHappy, SoundOut, Wavi), etc.

The warning message say than you don't use WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header in wav file, with the ChannelMask to flag the present channels, but the order must be always L R C LFE BL BR.

How do you create the wrong mapped multichannel wav file?

I use TsMuxer for Muxing my Blu-ray rips and Change fps to 25 (Pal Speedup).
Is there an Error handling the Subtitles (PGS / SUP) ??

For example:
The Orginal-Movie has 23.976 fps and a Forced Suptitle is shown at 1:13:34.

For Muxing I changed to 25 fps and at PGS - General Track Options I select "Bind to Video FPS".

In the new muxed movie, now this Suptitle is shown at 1:16:43.
This is wrong !! The Suptitle must be shown at ~ 1:10:30.

I make something wrong or TSMuxer makes an Error in Calculating the Correct Timeposition ?!?

[asarian]

Okay, tsMuxer seems like the tool to use. But I'm really new to Bluray, so I got a few questions that may look silly to folks here (but we all gotta enter the HD world somewhere, no?).

I was experimenting with "The Fith Element" Bluray discs, one of my first. The object was to try and extract the main movie only, with just the English sound. Ok, so I went to the STREAM folder, grabbed all .ts files, and dragged them onto the tsMuxer input screen. Several .ts files tsMuxer said it couldn't recognize, though (about 3 or so). Which leads to my first question:

1): How do I know which of the .ts files in STREAM actually belong to the main movie to begin with?

And for my second question,

2): I also see a PLAYLIST folder. Can the info be extracted from there somehow?

Sorry if these sound like stupid questions. But, like I said, I'm not really all that familiar with Bluray yet.

Thanks for reading anyway.

Hi asarian, you are welcome first of all.

You will find two folders inside the BD rip: BDMV and CERTIFICATE...
Look into the BDMV folder and you'll see the "STREAM" sub-folder and you gonna find some *.m2ts files inside that.
The biggest one is the main movie.
Add this file to TSMuxer and you'll see all of the details of the video and audio files.
Select the main video (VC1, h264 or mpeg2), select "remove pulldown" opton and select the audio and finally demux them.
Now in this step use eac3to get ac3 file.
You got raw video and audio. Now you can select either "TS Muxing" or "Create Blu-Ray Disc" option.
This might help as well:

I got the TrueHD track of The Matrix and i did the -blu-ray in the command line?

could that b the problem, i even used the GUI of eac3to and it still didnt make a diffrence,

what happens is the centre turns into the right or left?

The -blu-ray parameter is only for LPCM tracks, not for TrueHD track.

Thank you very much, rica! That was most illuminating. The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out, though; but I deselected all but the H.264 movie plus the TRUE-HD, and tsMuxer can even create another Bluray output again! So I'm very excited as to what the output will be! :) I disabled the PGS entries (what I assume to be subtitle streams).

The H.264 stream has a peculiar fps, though: 23.976 fps. LOL. How quaint! My new 50" Sony LCD does 24ps, when required, so I may have to force the fps to 24. But first things first: getting a valid bluray output.

All-in-all, I love this new world opening up for me; and I love this board, too! It seems here folks really know what they're doing.

P.S. Odd. The deed is done. I have a valid bluray! PowerDVD 8 doesn't seem to recognize the True-HD stream, though. But it's there, as taking the previous output as input for tsMuxer again, I see the TRUE-HD audio present! Interestingly enough, I see it now offers an option to downgrade TRUE-HD to AC3.

Ah, so much to learn, so little time to do it in! :)

[Momber]

The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out, though;
BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs.

The H.264 stream has a peculiar fps, though: 23.976 fps.

That's not peculiar, but correct, for movies.

I see it now offers an option to downgrade TRUE-HD to AC3.

Because many TrueHD tracks (not all) have an AC3 "core" that can be extracted.

When joining two m2ts files into one with tsmuxer I'm finding that PDVD and Arcsoft TMT are only playing the first part of the joined file. This is both when playback is initiated from the joined m2ts file itself and with playback from a remuxed Blu-ray structure.

I've got the same problem. I'd created the AVCHD by Nero Vision 5 and played on PS3. It showed "Data Disc" instead of "AVCHD". Does anyone know why? Thanks

[Atak_Snajpera]

Why do you use Nero????

Why do you use Nero????

I have many TV episodes and like to see each episode showed on menu.
I tried to append 7 episodes to 1 m2ts file on tsMuxeR. However, I'd got audio and video out of sync at the end. That's why I tried to use Nero Vision to put 7 episodes on 1 AVCHD. Thanks for listening.

Yeah, that happens because the end-of-file flag is not removed.
There may be more elegant solutions, but this is what works for me:
1. Join the files with the "copy /b" command.
2. Remux the joined m2ts to m2ts (!) with Tsremux (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=125447)
3. Create BluRay with tsMuxeR

If anyone has a less time-consuming solution, I would surely like to hear it ;)

Haven't measured it, but I think this should be faster:

(1) Let eac3to remux the video to MKV and do to the audio tracks whatever you want.
(2) Let TsMuxer remux the MKV to m2ts.

This also has the big advantage that you won't get audio sync problems with those multi-part seamless branching titles, because eac3to can remove audio overlaps at the m2ts join points. If you don't remove the overlaps, audio will slowly but steadily go out of sync with every further joined m2ts part. This is especially noticable with AC3 tracks cause the AC3 overlap can be up to 32ms per m2ts part, IIRC.

P.S: I haven't actually tried myself whether this works. But I've been told by another person who has tried this and said that it works.

The "remove pulldown" option remains greyed out,

Hi asarian; let me clarify this "pulldown removal" thing :)

I've seen these types of Blu-Ray disks:

mpeg2 1920*1080p 23.976 fps
h264 avc 1920*1080p 23.976 fps
for those nothing to remove since they are already 24p...
and finally;
VC1 1920*1080i 29.976 fps
we should remove pulldown from this interlaced file and convert it to 23.976 progressive one.
I have just one VC1 BD and it has no pulldown flag.
So momber might be right while saying "BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs."
But i'm not sure. At least you should try when you meet with a VC1file. (I sometimes removed pulldown from some HD-DVD VC1 files using vc1conv while i couldn't do it with TSMuxer.)

[claymic]

ok, my ps3 is not here now, so i cant test, but i think that problem is the blu-ray structure, i will try with avchd in nerovision, i dont test yet, if dont work i will try burn in UDF 2.6 , some peaple say thats way for play multiple files in ps3 with menu.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english again.

That is correct. If you are using the Blu-ray structure on an optical disc it needs to be burned in UDF 2.6, and if you've placed the files on a FAT formatted disk the files need to be renamed to only use 3 character extensions.

If either of those rules are broken the PS3 will not load the media as BDMV or AVCHD, but as plain data instead.

[SamuriHL]

UDF 2.50 for Blu-ray. UDF 2.6 for HD DVD.

Haven't measured it, but I think this should be faster:

Demuxing the files with eac3to and then remuxing them together with TsMuxer works good with multi-part seamless branching titles to right?

[psxiso]

PS3 don't accept Blu-ray structure burn on DVD5 or DVD9.
PS3 accept blu-ray structure on USB drive (output by tsmuxer, haven't test others).
PS3 accept AVCHD from NERO VISION 5, Ulead DVD MovieFactory 6, burn as UDF 2.50 on DVD5 and DVD9.

Thanks, madshi. I will give this a try on the next suitable project.
I must admit I haven't fully tapped into all the impressive capabilities of eac3to yet. Partly because m2ts support is relatively new, partly because I usually stick to what I know to work. But then again, I haven't had to grapple with seamless branching BluRays yet...

I haven't actually tried myself whether this works.
LOL! That's kind of funny, seeing as you are the developer of eac3to :)

[madshi]

Demuxing the files with eac3to and then remuxing them together with TsMuxer works good with multi-part seamless branching titles to right?
Not with the current eac3to version because it only removes the video "sequence end codes" when remuxing to MKV and not when demuxing the video track. That will be fixed with the next eac3to version. But TsMuxer can also handle MKV files. So letting eac3to remux to MKV and then TsMuxer remux to m2ts isn't really a disadvantage, I think.

[madshi]

Yeah, I also keep using the same techniques that I know to work and am only reluctantly changing to other techniques. You never know whether you won't run into new problems when converting to another technique...

LOL! That's kind of funny, seeing as you are the developer of eac3to :)
The reason is simply that I convert everything to MKV. My final aim is not m2ts. That's why I didn't test it myself. What I did test is remuxing everything to MKV, of course... :)

[Momber]

So momber might be right while saying "BluRays don't have any pulldown flags to remove, only HD DVDs."
Perhaps I should qualify my statement.
There may well be BluRays that have pulldown and/or interlaced flags, but that is because they are interlaced, e. g. 1080i (although I haven't personally come across one yet).
I those cases, simply removing the flags will not do. You'd end up with jerky or even corrupted video playback. What you would need to do to make them 24p progressive is apply inverse telecine, which is beyond the capabilities of a muxer tool. At any rate, this is something that the video decoder software does, or should do. A fine example is the free DScaler MPEG-2 video decoder with IVTC patch (http://www.geocities.com/kzeuhkzeuh/index.htm), which does just that, but only on MPEG-2 video streams.

[Momber]

That is what i was saying
Yes I understand but we should remove pulldown from this interlaced file and convert it to 23.976 progressive one.
is somewhat misleading in the context of this thread because deinterlacing and IVTC'ing is really not something that a muxer tool does, or can do.

[rica]

momber, this is what i told:
At least you should try when you meet with a VC1file. (I sometimes removed pulldown from some HD-DVD VC1 files using vc1conv while i couldn't do it with TSMuxer.)

As i told before i have just one VC1 BD without flag, so i have had no chance yet to give it a try with another one.

Great , that means i have to do all my seemless branching movies all over again.

Could i just run the remuxed files from my hard drives back in eac3to and remux to MKV then back to m2ts with tsmuxer or do i have to take the original split files from the blu-ray discs with the playlist and do it over again?

[nautilus7]

Already remuxed aren't good. You need the original files, so eac3to can detect the gaps/overlaps from the timestamps in the .m2ts files.

[DoomBot]

Already remuxed aren't good. You need the original files, so eac3to can detect the gaps/overlaps from the timestamps in the .m2ts files.

Even though eac3to already detected gaps/overlaps when demuxing the files the first time?

So does this just effect the video and not audio? Could i just take my already converted dts track that was converted with eac3to and remux to mkv while doing the original files? Or do i just run the original m2ts files through eac3to and just mux the video to mkv then take mkv and run it through tsmuxer with the dts track to make a m2ts movie file?

[Rodger]

Not sure you are using Graphedit to play those, are you?

NOPE! May be the problem.
But... I have to say...where is to find a comprehensive guide for the programm?!

[jase99]

I've just discovered this tool and find it excellent, thank you. All playlists I've tried to remux/demux that contain the same m2ts file listed more than once results in the message: File name <file> already exists, where <file> is the filename of the m2ts file that is listed more than once. Of course the file exists, it is (part of) the source. I'm a n00b with this tool so have probably failed at something simple. Any suggestions?

Have you just demuxed the video (and audio) streams? If that's true (and you used an eac3to version with seamless branching support), then your audio tracks are fine. You only need to deal with video, but i don't know if "sequence end code" removal will work for demuxed streams.

Yes thats correct, i take the original m2ts files and demux both the video and audio streams using the newest eac3to then take the files and put them through tsmuxer and remux to m2ts.

Well i hope madshi gets the new version done that will allow us to demux the tracks separate and still have the "sequence end code" removal work and not have to mux them to a mkv and then to a m2ts.

I noticed that TsMuxer 1.8.4b skipped a packet demuxing an HD DVD (Bourne Ultimatum US FEATURE_1.EVO). This packet appears to have been skipped. There may be a good reason. Just curious.

Search back through this thread. You'll find a program that automatically renames the files to the correct format.

Other than that you just need to put the Blu-ray structure folders inside of a directory named "AVCHD" that is in the root of the drive.

[Momber]

(1) Let eac3to remux the video to MKV and do to the audio tracks whatever you want.
See, I don't want to do anything to the audio tracks! But eac3to does - it tried to re-encode my BluRay PCM to FLAC, which is of course totally useless for later use in a BluRay structure.
I never told eac3to to do that, either...

First of all: GREAT TOOL !!!
I've made several tests in the PS3: Tried converting mkv to m2ts and to bluray structure. Just fine.
I've also made some titles with selectable subtitles.
Nice. Except that if I want to put several titles in the same AVCHD DVD I don't know how !
The only way I found out was to mux each track to its own .m2ts, but this disables the subtitles (the PS3 only recognizes the subs if they are in a AVCHD).

Anyone was successful in putting MULTIPLE TITLES titles WITH subtitles in the same media (for the PS3)?

thanks a lot

Rodger, i gave it a go and it works with MPC-HC as well.

BTW i have to edit the thread:
For BD
Demux sup with TSMuxer
Convert it to srt with SupRead (Open sup > select "OCR all" > select SRT > select "save as SRT" )
and finally remux to TS with TSMuxer...



The critical point here is video, audio and created srt must be in the same directory and must have the the same name.
Pls rename all the files as (for instance) test.vc1(or 264/mpv)
test.ac3, test.srt.

That's just the default action if you use the simplified "eac3to source.whatever dest.mkv" command line. You can get exactly what you want by being more exact in your command line, e.g. "eac3to source.whatever 2: video.mkv 3: Englisch.pcm".

[Momber]

I don't do command lines, but iirc eac3to_more_gui spat out "the basic one" on the project I was talking about: eac3to input.m2ts output.mkv

being more exact in your command line, e.g. "eac3to source.whatever 2: video.mkv 3: Englisch.pcm"
Very good, thanks. Now I have to figure out how to tell eac3to_more_gui to produce such a command line. Or would I have to do this manually, without the gui?

OTOH, this is somewhat off-topic in this here thread. I'll figure it out eventually ;)

In the meantime, I have used my previous method as described and it has again yielded a perfect result :)

Hi Guy's,

First off fantastic peice of software well done, Now to my problem i am creating a Blu ray structure from an original BD m2ts file and as always i just keep the Video and Audio that i want split the files into 4bg chunks rename all files so that it is playable on a FAT32 hard drive connected to the PS3.

Now the above works everytime for me if the Blu ray has DTS-HD Master Audio this plays back fine no problem, I do the exact same for a file that has Dolby TrueHD and when i come to play it back i have video but no audio through the PS3.

Can anyone tell me where i may be going wrong i have tried 5 files all of which have TrueHD and i get the exact same results, I was led to believe that the PS3 played back both DTS-HD MA and Dolby TrueHD from within an AVCHD folder with a Blu ray disc structure form tsmuxer.

Any Help:thanks:

@Momber Take a look at the first post in the eac3to_and_more_gui thread and follow the links to the download. Yraen has kindly made some wmv files which may be of help.

I recently received three TS files in SBTVD format. It's not DVB, nor ATSC, it's a new standard for the Brazilian Digital Terrestrial TV based on ISDB-T from Japan, and that uses H.264 1080i HD for video and AAC for audio. Some TS streams might contain a mobile version of the same content, using H.264 Baseline profile.
I tried to use TSMuxer to demux those files, but only the only stream that shows up for demuxing is the HD video. I also tried to use DGAVCIndex to parse these files with partial success (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1141194#post1141194).

So far, no application plays these files correctly. And the only app that shows all information correctly is MediaInfo (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en), although it doesn't show SI table information.

Anyway, since the standard is quite new, I thought it would be nice to make these files available for download here (http://www.cbclip.com.br/Manhattan/), for those that would like to know the differences and structure of the standard.

Hi,

Just want to share something...I have a mkv file with a lvl 5.1 x264 encoded video. Used avinaptic to check how many ref frame ithas...and avinaptic shows it as 8 ref frame...I know for a fact that PS3 only accept a max of 4 ref frame but I've watch the movie on the ps3 and it went smoothl without any hiccup...

So the issue here is what is the max limit of ref frame for PS3 since my file with 8 ref frame plays great on the ps3...

[Beastie Boy]

I think the ref frame limit is dependant on the resolution of the video. I'm guessing this wasn't a 1080p file.

Cheers, Beastie.

[Bajunid]

Ah...so it depends on the resolution....the video is a 720p file...so your guess is correct...so now I can encode a 720p file using 8 ref frames....

more ref frames = beter quality...am I right?

[Beastie Boy]

more ref frames = beter quality...am I right?

Up to a point. I usually stick with 3, purely for compatability. I don't know what device I may use for playback in the future.
I must confess to being a bit out of my depth when it comes to codec settings and go by trial and error. Others on this forum are better able to answer technical codec questions.

Has anybody been successful adding dummy AC3 tracks to tsMuxeR? If so, how? I always get an 'unable to identify stream' error.

[Digi]

Roman76r here is the error message i get with a Blu ray m2ts file untouched with a Dolby trueHD 5.1 track

http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r23/Digi247/untitled-1.jpg

Any ideas why tsmuxer wont work with the Dolby trueHd track as i get no audio but video is fine

[ckplee]

I am very happy that finally I found a tool which can easily and quickly convert video files to AVCHD format. However, there are few problems I encountered and I will be very appreciative if any experts can help me to solve them.

1. It is very strange that for some subtitle files (SRT), after converted to AVCHD, no subtitle can be shown. I checked the SRT file but could not find any problem. Then I created another text file and used "copy and paste" to paste text incrementally to test the result. And finally, I can create another SRT file that can be converted by the program. But I have no hint what exactly the problem is.

2. It cannot render AC3+ audio.

3. If the video is split into files, there will be few seconds skipped between video files. I don't know whether it is the problem of the files or the problem of the player (PS3).

Thank you very much for your help!

I think tsMuxer is an awesome application; finally have something to make movie capable of watching on my PS3. I was wondering if there was an update linux version coming out, as I've found the windows version to be pretty solid, but the linux one can be a little flakey at times(not able to mux together video that the windows version has no problem muxing, if I should post sample I can). I also was wondering when multi-title support was coming, as I would like to make some compliation blu-ray discs.

I'm also looking at creating a java program that uses mencoder and ts muxer for the backend, somewhat similar to ripbot, but with a few more features, mainly intended to have something I can run in linux that gives me HD converting ability to AVCHD. If it were possible to get the readme file in english, as none of the translators I've been able to use doesn't do a good job on the read me file.

The thread has been very helpful and I'm glad I finally found it. Thanks a ton roman!

[adalbertoma]

Hi, everyone.

I'm never tired of saying thank you to Roman for the great application. Our PS3s wouldn't be so usefull if he hadn't done this.

I've been out for a while and now that I came back, I saw there were so many updates that I don't even know where are we standing right now. Can TSMuxer already create 720P Blu-Ray discs with subtitles (using a 720P MKV file with embedded srt subtitles as a source)?

Thanks!

After successfully remuxing my first H.264 + AC3 audio to a 26G stream (The Fifth Element), today tsMuxeR (the "Start remuxing" window that is opened) 'stopped responding' the moment I try to do the same for Sunshine, and immediately says:

"Mux Complete; Return Code -1073741819"

There's nothing in it's error window, but it's main log error reads:

I have been using temuxer to pull just the video /main audion and eng PGS stream from blueray M2ts file with good success.

I have just realised that none of the 12 movies I have now have the subtiles in them ???

am I missing something ?
this a real problem on 'the last samuri' where there are a lot of forced subtitles which no longer work ?

has anybody got any idea how to retain forced subtitles also thow to get the PGS to work ??

Hi Roman,

With regard to assigning PID numbers to audio and video streams, ie: video @ PID 4113 (0x1011) and audio @ PID 4352 (0x1100).

When muxing good old fashioned MPEG-2 video with AC3 or MP2 audio within the .TS container, would it be possible to provide an option to asign the video @ PID 17 (0x11) and audio @ PID 20 (0x14).

Owners of old Sigma EM8620L chip-set based devices might find this useful ;)

Have you succesfully demuxed video and audio first?

Uh, no. I selected the first .m2ts file and the audio track of my choice, and set the output to "Create Bluray disc."

I just now tried to demux the streams first (though I'm not sure why I should need it), but the result is the same: tsRemuxeR demuxer window immediately hangs. Even if I select no audio at all, tsRemuxer immediately locks up.

Hi all!
When I make a tsMuxeR BD authoring with a non 16/9 (1280x720) format h264 video, PS3 BluRay reading seems always altered with big horizontal green strips making file unusable...

Are there workarounds to this ? A setting in tsMuxeR ?

I know the drastic way : frame by frame video decoding and resizing with VirtuaDub Mod before encoding again video to produce frames with horizontal black strips giving a standard 1280x720 image well supported by PS3... But it's a very long and destructive process regarding video quality...

Thanks in advance

[jefrey]

1280x720 bluray strucutre works fine, ps3 recognize the movie as a 720p bluray and set her output to 1280x720 , and not 1080 ;), also no green stripes

[Digi]

Ok so i tried tsmuxer with smaller 4gb chunks today to fit on a DVDR, PowerDVD reports and plays that i have Dolby TrueHD 2.0 audio, I burnt the file to disc from a tsmuxer created blu ray file and both my standalone and PS3 blu ray players would not play any audio, Video is present but no audio.

could this be a Bug in Tsmuxer with Dolby TrueHD soundtracks as DTS-HD Master Audio play fine no problem.:confused:

[asarian]

weird?
You're telling you even couldn't extract video at all...
Give it a go with TSRemux.

Well, I was so moronic as to use the un-ripped folder. :) So that certainly explained that. Sorry for that.

I'm still having no luck with the 'Sunshine' Bluray DVD, though. I can stream 'The Fith Element' to my PS3 just fine, perfectly fluid at ~25Mbps. But I use the exact same setting in tsRemuxeR for 'Sunshine', and I get file that will not stream at all: very jittery, that is; like it's < 10 fps. And the bitrate for audio and video are the same as for 'The Fith Element' disk! It's really bizarre.

So, okay, I demuxed the lot, ran eac3to, made a 640Kbs AC3 stream, 48Kh sampling, all by the book, and remuxed that with it instead. So, like I said, now it's running at the exact same bitrate and throughput as the other m2ts file, which streams just fine.

So, what's going on here? Disk was ripped with AnyDVD HD, so there's not a trace of BD+ stuff in it. And it plays just fine from harddisk, too (Windows Media Player). But for some reason it streams at just ca. 10 fps! (TwonkyMedia). Soon as I use no sound at all, it streams fine again.

I used the following command to convert the demuxed DTS-HD stream:

eac3to.exe 00001.track_4352.dts 00001.track_4352.ac3 -640 -down6 -8ms

And it's about 500MB, when done. Seems fair to me; but apparently not. :)

1920x1080 and 1280x720 resolutions will both work without the green stripes. 1280x544 is not a standard resolution and so green stripes fill the space where the black bars would be.

If you are still living issues with video try to extract it with Graphedit.

You can directly re-encode the audio of your m2ts with eac3to.

Yes, you're very observant. :)

I was just going to write in here, as apparently the problem occured because I had demuxed the H.264 stream first: after that, I can't stream the resultant (remuxed) m2ts file any more. I eventually solved it by simply not demuxing first, but instead to select just the original H.264 stream and add the new AC3 stream. And now it works fine again!

Leaves the mystery, of course, as to what breaks down in the demuxed H.264 stream so badly that I can no longer stream it over the wire? (whereas it would still play properly from harddisk). Maybe some sort of fps synchronization gets lost (but that sounds cuter than it's plausible, lol).

At any rate, thank you for your help!

HI Rica
many thanks for that
but I was under the assumption that in bluray or m2ts stream the subtitles were in the PGS or presentation graphics stream within the m2ts file .????

so I am convert the video stream , 1 audio stream and the first english PGS stream . to m2ts stream so I have the film in one file with audio and eng subs

is this correct ?
I was assuming I would be able to get subtitles from this ??

if I am correct then somthing is wrong with the muxer .

or is it something wrong with me :eek:
many thanks:)

can someone confirm this is the case ?

Don't forget you will lose HWA when you use DVSub. (BTW this is not related with DVSub itself but even any other post processing filter breaks down HA decoding workflow and it converts whole workflow into software mode.)

And have a look at this pls:

BTW i have to edit the thread:
For BD
Demux sup with TSMuxer
Convert it to srt with SupRead (Open sup > select "OCR all" > select SRT > select "save as SRT" )
and finally remux to TS with TSMuxer...



The critical point here is video, audio and created srt must be in the same directory and must have the same name.
Pls rename all the files as (for instance) test.vc1(or 264/mpv)
test.ac3, test.srt.

VC1 > Terminator 3 (origin HD-DVD)
no re-encoding at all.

Method:

Demux video and remove pulldown with TSMuxer. (rarely you might need to use VC1Conv to extract pulldown from some HD-DVD VC1 files)

Demux audio and re-encode it to ac3 with EAC3to (using command line is more flexible since you can open m2ts directly-for BD- and select the track whatever you want- for BD and HD-DVD- i will go on this way anyway for both format in re-authoring to BD.)

Demux subtitles with EVOdemux for HD-DVDs or use TS remux for BDs.
Convert extracted PGS to SRT with SUPread.

Remux all with TSMuxer as "Create Blu-Ray" option selected.

Burn with ImageBurn.

Hi Rica

I seem to have found a fairly easy way to get the .SUP file to .srt file using SUPreader.exe from here http://pel.hu/down/SUPread.exe

all you need to do is demux the relevant PGS file to .sup file using tsMuxer.
read the sup file into SUPreader and output it as a .srt file .

this can then be used by mediacoder for inclusion into AVI or mkv or just name the file the same as your .m2ts file and load it into the same directory and my popcorn network media tank reads it straight off ......sorted :thanks:

one extra thing I found is the 'FORCED' subtitles are a stream in their own right so once you have found the right PGS do as above and you get forced subtitles :eek:

it would be greta to have SUPread as an addin to tsMuxer if possible ( yeah yeah I know :p )

AFAIK you can't stream Vc1 content to a PS3.
VC1 in WMV play fine on PS3 over TVersity Media Server (without any convertion). Only one problem for WMV - sound. PS3 don`t play 24-bit and 5.1 wma sound. I try now convert sound only for 24-bit movies, but no luck - can`t find any worked solution and don`t have time write my own tool.
Anybody know how create M2TS VC1 + AC3 from WMV ?
XviD4PSP can easy create AC3 form WMV, but TsMuxer don`t accept WMV conteiner.
ffmpeg and mencoder create broken MKV from WMV.

Why, I got the Vista issues resolved. So, now I'm transcoding with MeGUI. I took a CQ-lossless profile, but it projected a 96G file size at some point -- a bit too much, even for my taste.

So, I transcoded a bit to RAWAVC. Hmm, odd, the H.264 stream is entirely black! I don't need 96G to achieve that; I can do that with 5 bytes! :) But seriously, what's with the black?

[winnydows]

@asarian
XviD4PSP 5.0 can easy transcode to MP4 PS3 or M2TS format.

In my case problem is how do it without video encoding (keep vc1 stream and reencode audio).
wmvmuxer-final-1.0 don`t work for me - always get error in different situations.

Not sure I fully understand: if you keep the vc-1 video, how will you stream it? in a WMV container? But then you'd drop back to 2.0 audio!

And "XviD4PSP", not sure i like that name; I mean, we're past the Xvid stage, no? I want highest quality H.264, not some inferior Xvid codec. :)

You could always use the Fat32 hard drive and AVCHD approach and play all your VC1 encoded disc that way.

I guess I'm not doing it right. The resulting mp4 can't be played ("an error occured"); and the RAWAVC stream is entirely black. That doesn't seem right.

Plus, the MeGUI 'analyze' option says the material is 'progressive', whereas tsMuxeR clearly says it's 1080i.

Any MeGUI experts here? :)

Streaming possible in WMV or M2TS (renamed to MPG) conteiners.
XviD4PSP just history name. Now this is powerfull video/audio converter. With MP4, x264, M2TS and all other good tools inside.
About 5.1 - VC1 + AC3 in M2TS only. Or x264 + AC3 in M2TS too.
Recoding not a problem - open your file in XviD4PSP, set M2TS format and encode.
Problem only copy VC1 stream - PS3 play perfect VC1-WMV3 streams.

@n0mag!c
Thanks for tip, but TsMuxer don`t accept WMV3 FOURCC. Will try replace FOURCC to WVC1 now. Hope it help.
Also play with WMV to WMV remuxing. Found Windows Media Stream Editor tool (inside WM9 enc). Tool perfect demux streams and let create correct audio for PS3. But don`t let mux back a + v stream to wmv, may be my mistake ?

Update:
WVC1 FOURCC don`t help. TsMuxer still don`t accept VC1 stream from MKV created with gdsmux from WMV.

Does tsMuxeR remap the blu-ray LPCM channels when demuxing, like eac3to?

I searched, but could find only one post, (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1112986#post1112986) which I don't think is definitive.

Also, has anyone translated the readme.txt file yet?

To my eternal sadness, MeGui is as good as totally unusable in Vista:


Hi asarian,

As far as i understand you are not living issues with MeGui itself but you are living issues with installing MeGui in Vista or updating it???

If so, install it into a folder you created-like MeGui folder- on Desktop, you will see auto update is working.

In my test the output wav's from tsmuxer are always with correct channel mapping.

This worked:

eac3to source.mlp destination.wavs

destination.wavs + dummy.vc1 -> Scenarist -> destination_2.m2ts

Video.vc1 + destination_2.m2ts -> tsMuxeR -> final_destination.ts

It's strange because Top Gun HD-DVD with TrueHD plays fine using Pcm2Tsmu. Oh well, I have a working method for me. I've got some other stuff to do today........

Tyee i tried this last with the Dolby TrueHD track and guess what it still does not play, I am resigned to the fact that there is no software yet available that will alllow the Dolby TrueHD track play from an external USB drive in an AVCHD folder.

I now look for titles with just DTS-HD MA to play from the external hard drive and get MKV for the rest.

A_DTS, "C:\videos\movie.dts", track=2, lang=eng
S_TEXT/UTF8, "C:\videos\movie.srt", ...

changes to:
V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC, "movie.h264", insertSEI, contSPS, track=1, lang=eng
A_DTS, "movie.dts", track=2, lang=eng
S_TEXT/UTF8, "movie.srt", ...

Ive got a little problem and Im hoping someone has the answer :)

I demuxed the LPCM track from the Patriot blu ray using eac3to and then converted it to a 1.5mb dts track

However, when I come to mux this into a m2ts with the h264 stream tsmuxer returns an error message
"cant detect stream type"

Anyone got any ideas?

The dts track plays perfectly in MPC so it seems ok on first look...

Thanks in advance for any info/guidance

With this CMD:

You shouldn't have any problems. You need to let eac3to do ALL the work including calling Surcode. Don't demux the track separately and then run it through Surcode. You need to do it all in one CMD. Also make sure the channels are being remapped from BluRay LPCM -> 6 channels. I've done this tons of times with ZERO problems.

I managed to muck around a bit with the directories, and it updates now! Thanks. :)

I finally went with RipBot264, though, as MeGUI still gave me an unplayable (black) mp4. With RipBot264, you just open the m2ts files with the VC-1 stream in it, set everything to max, and presto, you have a shiny new AVC stream in no time! Well, actually, it took 10 hours, lol, but I've yet to see any prog that is so easy to use that even a newbie like yours truly can get it to work. :)

I think I found a bug... I had changed the fps of h264 to 23.976 with h264info. Then muxed with mkvtoolnix the file +audio (dts)

Now when I want to create a bluray disk wit Tsmuxer it gives me this error: Reading buffer overflow. Possible container streams are not syncronized. Please, verify stream fps. The movie is 26 gb. But when I split the movie first with mkvtoolnix (500mb), Tsmuxer works correctly!

Can someone help me out??

Edit:

I have extract the h264 track after I had changed the fps and muxed a new mkv. I added the track in Tsmuxer with the orginel dts audio.
Then without any errors I have created the bluray output with Tsmuxer so I think this must be a bug...

Why not let tsMuxeR remove the pulldown? I have done that with all my AVC HD-DVD's w/o issue. I get warnings sometimes in tsMuxeR when doing this but flawless playback.

[jmone]

I'm after some advice from the PS/3er's! Unfotunatly my HTPC is in the shop so I wanted to stream the contents of an HD-DVD to the PS/3 from another PC so the kids could watch a movie. The EVO's have been extracted using AnyDVD (and I can play them just fine using direct draw filters).

I used tsMuxeR GUI 1.8.4 to open up the EVO and selected for processing:
1) Video: H.264 prfile: High@4.1 Resolution : 1920:1080p Frame Rate: 29.97 (pulldown)
2) Audio: E-AC3 (DD+) Bitrate 1536Kbps Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 6

I have tried outputing these as TS / M2TS / Create Blu-ray etc but while the resultant file seems to open on the PS/3 but it is just a blank screen though there are no error reported by the PS/3. These same files can be played in Showtime just fine. I'm guessing that the PS/3 does not like the DD+ track (as the video thumbnail preview plays on the PS/3) but I thought the PS/3 supported this format (it has the latest firmware). Any idea / what are the best settings to use?

This tool is very nice. I used it quite often.
Only problem with addind srt files is that it cannot read tags for Italic or bold fonts.
Also with letters like é è ö etc etc (special signs) it cannot read those aswell, it gives me other characters like @ß.

If you can fix those small problems, it would be the most awesome tool available!

All I do is:

select the AVC stream -> manually select 24000/1001 -> select 'remove pulldown'.


As I said, I do get warnings but the muxing continues and the playback is flawless. Does tsMuxeR stop muxing when you get these warnings? You may have to do what I do and manually select the FPS and check 'remove pulldown', not just check 'remove pulldown'. I am also using a 1080p60 display and not sure if you would get proper playback using a 24p display.

As an avid PS3 supporter, I hope I can help you. :) I would do two things:

1): Remove pulldown.

2): Convert DD+ stream as follows (if 00001.m2ts is your file; works with EVO too):

eac3to.exe 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3 -640 -8ms

Where "-8ms" is the possible offset (don't forget that! eac3to will show you which offset to use, if any).

Then rejoin the demuxed AVC stream (sans the pulldown) + the new ac3 sound, and you have a streamable PS3 file!

[madshi]

eac3to.exe 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3 -640 -8ms

Where "-8ms" is the possible offset (don't forget that! eac3to will show you which offset to use, if any).
The delay is automatically applied by eac3to, so if you manually add "-8ms" to the command line the delay is applied twice - which is too much! And "-640" is the default, so you don't need to type it in. Basically you can simply do "eac3to 00001.m2ts 00001.ac3".

Hmm, I could have sworn I only saw eac3to say something to the affect of "Adjusting RAWAVC offset" when I manually added the delay. But maybe that was on a stream I had already demuxed first (in the beginning I didn't realize it could just take a whole m2ts container for input).

Thanks, anyway. These things are good to know. :)

Hmm, I could have sworn I only saw eac3to say something to the affect of "Adjusting RAWAVC offset" when I manually added the delay.
The reason is simple: An AC3 frame is usually 32ms long. That means delaying an AC3 stream can only be done in 32ms steps - unless you want to decode and reencode the data (which would cost audio quality). Now a delay of e.g. +/-8ms is so small that it can't be applied. eac3to simply ignores it. However, if you add another +/-8ms on top of that, we have +/-16ms and that is exactly half an AC3 frame. In this case eac3to removes/adds one AC3 frame.

Hey Guys,

Hope this helps anyone who has been having trouble turning the Transformers disc into a stable m2ts (at least for the nmt a100). As I have been experimenting with it to get the best picture. The key is to uncheck "Add Picture Timing Info".

I have a question about what "Add Picture Timing Info" actually does. I found while converting my Transformers HD-DVD that if I go with the default values in the tsMuxerGUI (which has add picture timing info checked), I get really bad "jitter" on text. It is like the frame is deinterlacing very poorly and the text jumps up and down a pixel every refresh.

This can be seen more easily on the IronMan trailer on the same disc. The Text on the Green PG rating screen before the trailer starts jitters horribly. Unchecking "Add Picture Timing Info" makes the image rock solid.

Any idea what is going on?

Thanks,
Jeff

IMHO, you're just gonna waste space doing DD+ -> PCM. You're better off doing DD+ -> AC3/DTS depending on the bitrate. I hear ZERO difference between a 5.1 DD+ track and it's equivalent AC3/DTS. And, yes you can use (L)PCM in M2TS but for tsMuxeR to accept home made PCM tracks you need to use:

Pcm2tsmu source.pcm destination.pcm

and then input destination.pcm into tsMuxeR.

IMHO, you're just gonna waste space doing DD+ -> PCM. You're better off doing DD+ -> AC3/DTS depending on the bitrate. I hear ZERO difference between a 5.1 DD+ track and it's equivalent AC3/DTS.
Well, it depends a bit on the bitrate of the DD+ track. There are DD+ tracks with 192kbps (ok, those are usually stereo). And there are some with 1536kbps. Those with 1536kbps are pretty near to lossless. Reencoding a 1536kbps DD+ track to 640kbps AC3 hurts a bit. But then many guys are also reencoding PCM tracks to AC3. So I guess everybody should just decide for himself what he wants to do...

[kalle2k3]

After remux by TsMuxeR , remux it again by TsRemux . It works well


Thats right, that really does it. But then you "lose" all your fine custom chapter points and your multi language settings, i.e. one track tagged as english, one as spanish etc.

Therefore i looked at both playlists (one from tsmuxer and te other from tsremux) with bdedit 0.17b and they only appear to be different in one place: Open playlist menu and read the 0000.mpls file. In the upper middle there should be checked only bypass mixer (after tsremux) and after tsmuxer theres only audio mix checked. But i dont know the difference between them, except that truehd does play when only bypass mixer is checked.

[tyee]

@kalle2k3
So can we just edit the *.mpls file and make it play? If yes, can bdedit actually edit this file for us?

I do 1536kbps DD+ -> 1536kbps DTS, just like most AVR's do that don't decode DD+ and it sounds exactly the same. DD+ is lossy so doing DD+ -> PCM is like doing MP3 -> PCM and thinking you're listening to the CD but as I said, IMHO. You wanna waist space, knock yourself out :p

however if i try to add all up in tsremuxer it says it cannot detect the stream type, if i use dts wav it says it's lpcm but in mpc it shows that audio is missing.

Container: I'm a bit confisuded (well no idea would be closer) of the relative mertis of M2 and M2TS containers - any suggestions of which is "best" for my application and why?

Video: Should be OK as I'm just not that keen to do any transcoding!

Audio: It seem that the bigest issue I'll have is what format to transcode the HD-DVD DD+ (etc) tracks to that which:
1) Does not degrade the Audio (eg AC3 has 2.5 times less info than DD+)
2) Is widely supported by PC Splitters for my HTPC (I've pretty much got all combo's working fine)
3) Is supported by the PS/3 (eg I've had problems with MPEG/DTS muxed tracks as the PS/3 splitter (like many) does not push out any audio from MPG containters).
4) I Don't care about the relative file space consumed by the Audio

I'm really after the least "hassle" possible in the EVO --> M2(TS) process as possible! I'd much rather just juse tsMuxeR to change the container format from EVO to M2(TS) without any transcoding at all but it does not look possible given I'll need to stream the kids stuff to the PS3 which does not like DD+ apparantly.

Given the above is L/PCM a good choice for my HD-DVD's Audio transcoding (where needed) or is there other options.

Thanks

can someone give me a hand here:

i am trying to convert a hd-dvd to blu ray

with evodemux i get the dd+ and vc-1, extracting all seperate wavs with eac3to and sonic, muxing it back tu dts with surcode.

however if i try to add all up in tsremuxer it says it cannot detect the stream type, if i use dts wav it says it's lpcm but in mpc it shows that audio is missing.

thx

What version of Surcode are you using? Your log should look like this:

I personally do not own a PS3 but as far as HD-DVD audio goes I have gotten transparent results from the following:

640k/< DD+ -> AC3
768k/1536k DD+ -> DTS
TrueHD -> PCM

I have heard that the PS3 does have problems with DTS audio in certain instances and if that is the case then you will need to use PCM for 768k/1536k DD+. I use an NMT and use TS as a container for my HD-DVD conversions and M2TS for my ES BluRay rips.

@kalle2k3
So can we just edit the *.mpls file and make it play? If yes, can bdedit actually edit this file for us?

Hi Tyee,

I tried various ways this evening and cannot get the TrueHD track to play even with altering the .mpls file and still no joy, the only hope is for a split file function in TSremuxer and thats it.

Hi,
Very good tool, but I need a feature. Is it possible, in the next release, to open a MTS file ?
It's a file from a canon HD camcorder, coded in AVCHD at 15Mb

If you need you can download a exemple (4794 Ko) :

Thanks for those providing advice so far and so far here is my process to convert a HD-DVD with an H.264 Video and a DD+ Audio stream into a TS container streamable to a PS/3 (and playable on my HTPC).

1) Demuxing & Audio Conversion: using Eac3to More GUI by Yraen V1.09 Beta 2 ---> "C:\eac3to\eac3to.exe" "F:\HVDVD_TS\FEATURE_1.EVO"+"F:\HVDVD_TS\FEATURE_2.EVO" 3: "D:\To Mux\Video.h264" 5: "D:\To Mux\audio.pcm" Where the:
A) Video was reported as h264/AVC, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9) with pulldown flags
B) Audio was reported as E-AC3, English, 5.1 channels, 1536kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB, -84ms

2) PCM to PCM-TS Conversion: used the "Pcm2tsmu "D:\To Mux\audio.pcm" "D:\To Mux\audiots.pcm"" to convert the PCM track to something that tsMuxeR would like.

3) Remuxing: tsMuxeR GUI 1.8.4 Settings were as follows (basically as default except to change the fps) where the meta files was MUXOPT --no-pcr-on-video-pid --new-audio-pes --vbr --vbv-len=500 V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC, "D:\To Mux\Video.h264", fps=23.976, insertSEI, contSPS, delPulldown A_LPCM, "D:\To Mux\audiots.pcm"
During the muxing I got the following error messages:
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 100ms.
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 200ms.
Warning! Source stream contain irregular pulldown marks. Mistiming between original fps and fps/1.25(without pulldown) exceed 400ms.

Results: All seems to play fine with the exception that there are no Chapters (I had it marked as one per 5 Minutes).

Any advice on Errors / Improvements / Omissions / Simplifications would be welcome as I certainly only want to do this once!

Thanks
Nathan

This is the same warning I get when removing pulldown from HD-DVD AVC streams with tsMuxeR but have gotten flawless playback. You should be good to go :)

Thanks! it plays "nice" with the PC and streaming to the PS/3 - but any idea on the missing Chapters?

In made a AVCHD for the ps3 on a externel hd but I get only audio and a blank screen.

The mkv info from media info: 1920x1080 23.976 AVC 5.1 (cabac/6 Ref Frames) DTS. So I have changed the 5.1 profile to 4.1 profile with H264info... but stil no luck. This is the second movie with a blank screen so I really want to fix it (if possible)

Someone have got any idea's??

You must use eac3to again: "eac3to encoded.dts fixed.dts" to remove "zero padding".

I guess in this case only reencode to BD compliant video would help.

As a newbie to this area, I have been able to use this great tool to create BluRay output from HD-DVD's and Blu-Rays using video and AC3 tracks only, that play in a AVCHD folder on a USB drive attached to the PS3

tsMuxeR has been easy to use - thanks for this

But a couple of specific questions

How do I get the "audio delay"
I see that tsMuxeR has a setting to allow for this

Does tsMuxeR automatically adjust for the audio delay in a particular track?
If not, what tool do I use to get the delay?


Secondly with regard to digital audio formats "higher" than 5.1 AC3 or DTS, it seems that most or all of these have to be converted to 6.1 or 7.1 LPCM to preserve the additional info (at cost of larger size)

How do I convert these higher formats to allow them to be remuxed subsequently with tsMuxeR? - formats like DTS-MA 7.1, DTS-HD 7.1?

If a movie already has LPCM 7.1 format, I can use that directly - correct?

One final question, while I haven't come across a movie with branching structure yet, does the current tsMuxeR output allow for branching structure?

Hope you can help out
Jeff

TsMuxer supports *.mpls files and appending for this task.

Hi man, i am sorry, my english is very poor. I will try to explain for you. I have many files in 720p (lost, smallville, etc). I want to put them in one dvd-r (4.5 or 8.5). I fallow the guide post here, using nerovision. Works in blu-ray player, but dont work in ps3. I burn the disc with udf 2.5. When i put the disc in one blu-ray player, the player open the menu and play every episodes very well, but when i put in ps3, the ps3 show data disc. I have try to burn in udf 2.6, i have try to create a avchd and i have try to create blu-ray structure, dont work anyway. I have use dvd-r 4.5.
When i create blu-ray structure with tsmuxer for one file, works very well in ps3.
I try to join the files with mkvmerge, but the image for the second files was distorcing.
I want to put many files in one dvd-r, thats it.
I am sorry for my bad english.

[jeffnoone]

[What do you mean saying "automatically"? Just use your ears as such a tool.

Basically what I am asking here is whether in a typical Bly-Ray movie file (being processed by tsRemuxeR) there is any delay in the start of any of the audio tracks, or do they all start at time "zero"?

If there is a delay in the start of audio tracks,is there any tool to tell what what this delay is? e.g. -65msec

I agree this can be guestimated using ears, but in the past I have found that my ears often slip up here (when I used do a similar process with DVD's?)


TsMuxer supports *.mpls files and appending for this task.

How do I get the "audio delay"

eac3to


How do I convert these higher formats to allow them to be remuxed subsequently with tsMuxeR? - formats like DTS-MA 7.1, DTS-HD 7.1?

eac3to source.m2ts destination.pcm

Pcm2Tsmu destination.pcm destination_2.pcm

source.m2ts + destination_2.pcm -> tsMuxeR -> final_destination.m2ts

If a movie already has LPCM 7.1 format, I can use that directly - correct?

Yes.

One final question, while I haven't come across a movie with branching structure yet, does the current tsMuxeR output allow for branching structure?

If the source BluRay is MPEG2 then you can just use tsMuxeR as stated above. If it's AVC you will need to use eac3to to properly join the segmented files.

[claymic]

Finaly. Ps3 run now my dvd-r with multiples files, menu and subtitles.First i create a blu-ray structure for my files, and the folders, like the guide post here. I create a avchd with nerovision 5, dont work for my ps3 create a blu-ray structure, then i create a .bat file (Nerovision have a bug, when save avchd in hard disc, the bat will fix that) :

Hi Nathan,

Are you configuring the PS3 to output/pass a DTS bit-stream to an external digital surround sound (DSS) amplifier?

Sorry was away for a couple of days! Yes the PS3 is configured OK. If you look at the properties of the files being played the PS3 reports that there is no audio track (as the splitter is not outputing it....)
Thanks

Do you have a solution without nerovision? I don't understand, do you use tsmuxer to create blu ray? please explain me.
Sorry for my bad english.

My english is very poor too. Do you speak portuguese ? if yes i can send you a private message explain everything. I will crete a guide and post here soon.
I use tsmuxer for create a blu-ray structure for each one of the episodes. EX: for episode one use tsmuxer and save the blu-ray structure in folder C:\LOST\1. Episode 2 in folder C:\LOST\2 and episode 3 and folder C:\LOST\3. Now open nerovision and choice a AVCHD and add 3 small archives of any movie ( i insert 3 movies of 1 sec each). Now create a AVCHD and save in folder C:\LOST\MENU. Use my post above for move and delete files. You can copy my post and save like a .bat, click two times and .bat will go to all make the work automatically for you.
Sorry, my english is very poor. I will try to make a guide for this.
you can search here in this fórum, have a post to create blu-ray with nero, but does not work for ps3, but you can catch the main idea and adapt it my way to create avchd.
Sorry peaple, I really would like to help and collaborate with this fórum, but my English is limited.
when the guide to be ready i will post here.

[n0mag!c]

Finaly. Ps3 run now my dvd-r with multiples files, menu and subtitles.First i create a blu-ray structure for my files, and the folders, like the guide post here. I create a avchd with nerovision 5, dont work for my ps3
So that was it. You should create "Blu-Ray" disk in nero vision, not "AVCHD" disk.

Sorry for the nOOb Q on my quest to covert my HD-DVD's to M2 files! Does tsMuxeR support reading Chapters & Subs from EVO files (HD-DVD) for the creation in the remuxing to M2?
Thanks

No, it doesn't support none of above.

[carrot691]

I have MPTS (or SPTS in 38.8mbits) which I want to remux into 19mbits Transport stream. Seems like tsmuxer is the best to do the job. However I'm having little problem because I want the PCR needs to be on the Video PID and it seems like it's creating continuity errors when I use the option "--pcr-on-video-pid". Usually you add the PCR in the Adaptation header and not on a separate PID packet (wasting a few bytes when you do). Anyway, it's ok to be a seperate MPEG-2 packet but continuity counter needs to be altered in the original video PID. Seems like something quite easy to fix.

Example :
ts warning: discontinuity received 0x0 instead of 0x0 (pid=4113)
ts warning: discontinuity received 0xe instead of 0xe (pid=4113)
ts warning: discontinuity received 0x7 instead of 0x7 (pid=4113)

Also, is it possible to specify the PID I want in the output Transport stream?

Thanks.

....Now create a AVCHD and save in folder C:\LOST\MENU. Use my post above for move and delete files. You can copy my post and save like a .bat, click two times and .bat will go to all make the work automatically for you.....

I believe that what you are reporting as a bug in Nero is not exactly like that. The structure that Nero creates on the hard disk is compliant with the "AVCHD in FAT32 hard disk specification".

If you try to play those files from a USB FAT32 formatted hard disk (putting everything under the AVCHD folder in the root directory) it most likely will play, with menu, etc.... (and you don't need to burn a DVD)

Your script is replicating other existing scripts that are used to change filenames to/from tsmuxer / FAT32 devices

Good work nevertheless....

Hi

I muxed a M2TS file (from camcorder canon HG10) into a TS file with TSmuxerGUI

When I analyse these M2TS file with the MTS4EA from Tecktronix, everything is OK

When I open the TS file, appear this alert message :

"An Access Unit Delimiter NALU was found in an unexpected place. Access delimiter NAL units must occur at the beginning of an access unit."

I think that is because M2TS is a 192 octet packet file and the TS is a 188 octet file. And when you change the length of the packets, the beginning of the NAL Unit is not starting at the beginning of the new packets...

It's not an Error, just an Alert. It's just not totally complinent.
It's possible to open the file.

Thanks for this usefull soft.

I would like to start by saying what a nice program tsMuxer is. I am using it to join (append) mutliple mts files from my sony camcorder. The program does it fast and nicely. However, I am noticing the audio in the joined file appears to be out of sync. It appears to have a slight delay in the audio. Does anyone has suggestion on how I can fix that? Thanks

I am guessing you are using an AVCHD camcorder? Try using eac3to to join the files instead and see if that helps.

Yes, I am using an AVCHD camcorder. Will eac3to join the mts files as quickly as tsMuxer? This is important to me as I have an old computer.

Hello

After a subtitles ANSI srt to SUP conversion with SUPread last release and muxing to 'BluRay Disc' with tsMuxeR, my PS3 "see" a subtitles stream but when activated, subtitles stay invisible... Audio and video are OK...

Are there special parameters for SRT to SUP conversion into SUPread ?

Guys, i'm muxing to M2TS container with tsmuxer and streaming using wmp11 to my ps3. Everything works if i mux small files (e.g. 1GB maybe 2GB) but when i mux large files (like 4-6-8GB) although i can see them from the ps3 they play for a couple of seconds and then stop. Clicking information from ps3 shows that the files are 700K-800K.
Got any ideas? should i use another server or something?
cheers

Try TVersity, i've streamed 8gb+ files with no problem.

[mezzanine]

Try TVersity, i've streamed 8gb+ files with no problem.

Yes i installed tversity last night and i can stream without transcoding most of the m2ts HD files.
But there is another problem, when i try to go to a certain point of a movie it freezes. This happens with large files only. In 1gb episode HD files i can go to any point and it begins playback after 4-5 seconds.

[claymic]

So that was it. You should create "Blu-Ray" disk in nero vision, not "AVCHD" disk.

No, i have to create a avchd disc whith nerovision and replace the files with the blu-ray structure create by tsmuxer.

[claymic]

Ok, but i dont test with FAT32, and i dont find any script in the net about that. I create this for my files, for burn in a dvd-r 4.5. I try with script post here, dont work in ps3. My intention is play multiple files with menu and subtitles, burn in dvd-r. I dont want play in a FAT32 devices., so, works now and i am very happy.

It seems to me too that level 5.1 works now on the PS3.

[curtis-r]

I was previously using TsRemux to slim-down .m2ts blu-ray movies to then play through my TViX M-6500. If I didn't uncheck "bypass audio alignment", DTS-HD audio tracks skip every few seconds.

Now that I'm finding some Blu-Ray movies segmented, I found the nearly perfect solution in Ea2to and tsMuxeR to create my final .m2ts movies.

My problem: No "bypass audio alignment" in tsMuxeR, thus I'm having my DTS-HD sound issue.

Is there a comparable "bypass..." function in tsMuxeR or some other solution?

[ultratoto14]

It seems to me too that level 5.1 works now on the PS3.

Tried most of the files who needed a reenconde to work with PS3. All the files i tested are now Ok on PS3 !!

It's a great news.

[Kakan]

Hey claymic can you plz teach me how to put in many movies on 1 disc so I can play them in my bluray player ???

I Have read all paged but I don´t really got it :(

And I also wounder if its posiebol to put new subs to a bluray movie ??? Will they be in sync and stuff like that.

I need 1,2,3 step guide :)

[Underground78]

It seems that aac tracks in mkv files are not detected by tsMuxeR (some people have reported this and I can confirm this too) but is this a bug or a normal thing (knowing that when demuxed these tracks are usable in tsMuxeR) ? I can't find a clear answer ...

[Butterfly666]

[Joniii]

I just installed latest version of Cyberlink PowerDVD 8 Ultra. I noticed that I get no audio from any of my .m2ts files with DTS tracks. I then tried to remux one DVD .vob to .m2ts. Original vob plays fine and PDVD detects DTS track but with .m2ts it thinks there is no audio tracks. Something wrong with the tsmuxer maybe?

[nefilim]

Any news on an updated Linux version ? Would be great if it could be updated with all the fixes the Windows version has.

[n0mag!c]

No, i have to create a avchd disc whith nerovision and replace the files with the blu-ray structure create by tsmuxer.
You MUST create "BLU-RAY" disk in NeroVision if you wish to burn result to DVD-R(W) / BD-R(E)
You MUST create "AVCHD" disk in NeroVision if you wish to play result from USB (flash)disks.

Hi,
Very good tool, but I need a feature. Is it possible, in the next release, to open a MTS file ?
It's a file from a canon HD camcorder, coded in AVCHD at 15Mb

If you need you can download a exemple (4794 Ko) :

http://dl.free.fr/lpsM0iXOw/00015.MTS

Thanks a lot...
Titof

I have this problem too. I just rename my files to .m2ts and it works just fine. I think it is just a bug in the way it determines whether the file is a 188-byte packet file or a 192-byte packet file (it thinks your .mts is 188 when it is 192). This would be nice to get fixed though, but the work around is pretty easy:

rename *.mts *.m2ts

I would like to start by saying what a nice program tsMuxer is. I am using it to join (append) mutliple mts files from my sony camcorder. The program does it fast and nicely. However, I am noticing the audio in the joined file appears to be out of sync. It appears to have a slight delay in the audio. Does anyone has suggestion on how I can fix that? Thanks

This is another feature I would really like to see added to tsMuxeR. I made up an Excel spreadsheet to help me overcome this problem with my Canon HF100. The problem is that the audio is usually slightly longer than the video since the audio is made up of 32ms AC3 frames. What needs to be done is the total number of video frames and audio frames needs to be counted as it is going along. When a join point comes, if the audio is now more than 16 ms longer that the video, the last frame should simply be thrown away. This will give it a slight negative offset, but that will soon be corrected once the next clip or so has ended. This is what my Excel spreadsheet does. It is complicated, and uses a few other tools to do everything:

DGAVCIndex to count video frames
AC3 Cutter to count audio frames
tsMuxeR to join all clips with audio (out of sync)
AC3 Cutter again to remove audio frames where necessary.
tsMuxeR again to join all clips and merge with corrected audio

However, it DOES work. I'm sure that if tsMuxeR is able to determine the number of video and audio frames going by, this type of merge should be easy enough to add to it. I know I'm not the only one with one of these AVCHD camcorders, so it would be a valuable addition indeed. If Roman is still watching this thread, I'd be glad to assist him in adding this feature.

[ibius]

Hi, one quick question: If I just want to strip some audio and subtitle tracks, simply remux the original Blu-ray .m2ts file, does it matter if I use 'M2TS muxing' or 'Create Blu-ray disk' as the Output option?
Would both resulting streams be in any way different from one another AND more importantly from the original one?
Does 'M2TS muxing' mean that a .TS file will be created, whereas 'Create Blu-ray disk' will create not only Blu-ray folders but also a Blu-ray compliant .m2ts file?
Or is the only difference the BD structure?

And could someone explain me the difference between .ts and .m2ts streams?

Would really appreciate your input on this one,
thx in advance.

[n0mag!c]

Hi, one quick question
BD structure is not only M2TS file itself. So if you wish to burn AVCHD/BDMV disk you must use 'Create Blu-ray disk' option.
If you wish to play your movie as file then you must use ".ts" output, 'cause it's smaller then ".m2ts" file, 'cause its packets have smaller size.

[jagaskywalker]

I know I'm not the only one with one of these AVCHD camcorders, so it would be a valuable addition indeed.
Matt

I would be very happy to have this available. I also have an AVCHD Sony camcorder...

On another issue, is there any new info about the "jumps" we see when splitting the m2ts file in a FAT32 device (playing on PS3) ? Is there a way to solve it ?

5.1 level works with 720p movies but not 5.1 -> 1080p movies!
It`s not a rule. Some 720p work, some don`t. Same for 1080p. Everything depend on luck in this case.

[jeffnoone]

Taking a movie like Rambo as an example, which has a DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack - is it possible to get the 7.1 track into a new Blu-Ray structure using tsRemuxeR, and a combination of other tools?

From what I have read, tsRemuxeR does not support this directly, altho can output as 5.1 DTS

Even if we could get it into a BluRay structure, it seems that a PS3 wont play a DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack, unless it is on a commercial Blu-Ray disc - correct?

Can eac3to work with this DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack, converting it into 7.1 channels of .wav, and then bundle it up into a 7.1 channel single LPCM?


I have read that Graphedit and the Arcsoft audio filter will allow production of 7.1 wavs - but what program do you use to re-bundle these into a 7.1 LPCM?

Any help appreciated
Thanks
Jeff

[survivant001]

lot of posts here are not releated to tsmuxer. You should start a new thread.

[Nullity]

It`s not a rule. Some 720p work, some don`t. Same for 1080p. Everything depend on luck in this case.

From what I understand, it isn't the 5.1 level itself that prevents playback on the PS3. Instead, it is caused by some of the features that get enabled by encoding to level 5.1 that aren't supported in 4.1 (blu-ray standard). For instance, most people know that for 1080p video, there must be 4 or fewer reference frames, but that's not all. Level 4.1 also does not support the "P4x4" macroblock option, and "B-Pyramid" can also cause problems (there may be some others).

If you know you have a 1080p stream that is level 5.1 but was not encoded with these options, then just changing to 4.1 on the fly with tsMuxer or h264info should let it work on the PS3, otherwise, the video will have to be re-encoded.

If it needs to be re-encoded, I suggest using MeGUI and the "SA-Blu-ray" profile. Using this profile, you can uncheck both "Add picture timing info" and "Continually insert SPS/PPS" when muxing in tsMuxer and it will play perfectly on the PS3, including seeking, etc (I have done this several times).

[ultratoto14]

Just to be precise, the 5.1 level files i talked about are files that did not work before, black screen after 4.1 level patching. I will be out for 3 weeks, but i will test further and find what is the common option not supported before.

[SeeMoreDigital]

It really is pointless generating AVC encodes higher than High@Level4.2, as not even Blu-ray (or HD-DVD) supports it.

[Butterfly666]

When I choose dutch language for the subtitle with tsmuxer to make a AVCHD for the ps3, the ps3 dont show the info for dutch subtitle but the info says undetermined. For the english subtitle it shows the correct info.

For the turkish subtitle its the same undetermined info.

Now I have googled and I think the ps3 only show the correct info if you choose nld as info with tsmuxer and not dutch. For the turkish I dont know yet.

How can I fix this? Is it possible to add info without to choose the info in tsmuxer list?

[n0mag!c]

Is it possible to add info without to choose the info in tsmuxer list?
Try Pelican's BDEdit or any "hexedit" to patch language description in the *.mpls files.
P.S. I really think that not displaying certain language descriptions is a PS3 problem.

[todaystudy]

great tool and probably the best remuxer.
but i have one desire. it is possible to choose the stream id from the audio and video streams before muxing? because my hd-reciver (Kathrein UFS910) don't accept the default stream id's from tsmuxer.

input.ts: (work on the UFS)

Code:
Stream #0.0[0x2ff]: Video: h264
Stream #0.1[0x303](deu): Audio: liba52, 48000 Hz, 5:1, 448 kb/s

Hope you don't mind if i say it is time to update :)

(: not related with the upper posts. Think you've collected lots of feedback.)

[jeffnoone]

Hope someone can help with problems I am having with Rambo First Blood BR North America

I wanted to make a copy from the actual BR disc, so used Pioneer drive and AnyDVD to extract

The video is h264/AVC, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9) - reported by eac3to

The video is Profile: High@4.1 Resolution: 1920:1080p Frame Rate:23.976 - reported by tsmuxeR

THere are both AC3 and DTS-HD tracks, and I have tried it with AC3 only to check my problem out


Anyway the problem is jumpy video
e.g. early on in movie Rambo is going down a slope to a house at edge of lake, he will move, then hesitate, suddenly spurt forward, hesitate again, then rush forward etc
This cycle appears to occur every second or so

Now it plays perfectly with PowerDVD 73319a if I use the entire BR structure
But when I remux it with tsRemuX keeping only video and AC3, it does the jumpy thing
I tried demuxing first with Eac3to both with and without the -seekToIFrames and -24p commandline switches, then remuxed with tsMuxeR, but no good.

I then demuxed/remuxed with TsRemux0212b, and it plays perfectly

I tried h262info with "write PPS" but it chokes on the demuxed h264

Now I want to output this in 4GB chunks, so TsRemux0212b is no good, but at least TsRemux experiment tells me it can be done

I also tried tsMuxeR with both "add picture timing info" and "continually insert SPS", as well as forcing it to 30fps - none of this worked - still jumpy

Have tried everything I can think of as a relative noob, hoping for some help

How can I correct this video, and get it remuxed into 4Gb chunks wityh smooth video?

Help appreciated
Jeff

Is there some one out here that maby whants to help me out with a cupol of things with this program ???

[rica]

Hi guys.

I'm not so sure whether i'm in the right topic but anyway:

I spent a lot of time with trying to cut srt files by TSMuxer today.

I demuxed VC1 from a HD DVD via TSMuxer
Demuxed ac3 with eac3to
Demuxed sup with evodemux.

Converted sup into srt with SupRead.

When i remuxed vc1 and ac3 into TS with TS muxer and renamed srt created with supread with the same name of muxed ts and put them in the same folder, i can easily watch suptitle with MPC-HC.

What if i cut remuxed video, audio and srt with TSMuxer?

1) If i cut and demux srt by alone with TSMuxer and import to Supread i got this:

http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/994/supreadbj0.th.jpg (http://img145.imageshack.us/my.php?image=supreadbj0.jpg)

2) If i try to remux video, audio and sup together and after i cut and demux i got this:

http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/7249/supread3no2.th.jpg (http://img517.imageshack.us/my.php?image=supread3no2.jpg)

(even the original srt was:

http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/7043/supread2oh3.th.jpg (http://img46.imageshack.us/my.php?image=supread2oh3.jpg)

Any comment will be appreciated.
Thx!

[rica]

BTW, here are the sups; first one is original, the second one is problemtic one...

If you want to get the 1st option, you may give it a go by yourself with the original srt via TSMuxer...

@Roman

When I mux a mpeg2 video and ac3 audio together to a ts stream the audio doesn't work.
It seems tsremuxer puts a stream id of fd and I need stream id of bd to playback these streams with ac3 audio. Is there any chance of having a option to select stream id bd?

Thank you

Hi all,

tsMuxeR is my favorite proggy for making movies play on my PS3 - but now I found one mt2s where it constantly breaks ...
I took the main movie mt2s from the BD "From Hell" and tried to take out only the h.264 and the english ac3-stream, but tsMuxeR constantly crashes at 17.6% ...
When I untick both "add picture timing info" and "continually insert SPS" then the demuxing works, but when I try to remux these two stream again, it crashes again.
Demuxing all the other streams works fine.
When I use h264.info to recode the extracted stream, it crashes as well at the same position.
I tried to remux the two streams into an mkv, which worked, but remuxing the mkv using either GOTsent or mkv2vob crashes as well (I guess they are using tsMuxeR or h264.info under the hood as well ...).
So am I stuck here or do you have any idea on how I could remove that glitch from the h.264-stream?

Ah - btw. one more thing I noticed:
I took the vc-1 and ac3-stream from "The Incredible Hulk" and remuxed them into a BD structure and burnt that structure onto a BD disk. For h.264 streams that usually works, but this one just produces a black screen on my PS3 and after a while the message "unsupported format" on the screen - any ideas here again?

Cheers, Stefan!

[frank]

@rica
srt is a simple text format. You can cut it with Windows Editor! You know the end time.

@stefvienna
First completely demux the main movie to it's elementary streams (vc1, ac3), and then mux new.

[stefvienna]

Hi Frank,

that exactely what I did ...
When both "add picture timing info" and "continually insert SPS" are klicked, then it crashes during demuxing, when they are not klicked, demuxing works, but then it crashed during remuxing ...

Cheers, Stefan!

Load your MPLS file -> Mux to new M2TS -> Load new M2TS into tsMuxeR -> continue processing. See if that works.

It won't work, look at picture

If there is *.mt2s file more than once in input files, it stops.

I can't see the picture due to approval pending, and I have never had this problem with tsMuxeR. Try loading in just one of the M2TS files, not the MPLS file, and remux to a new M2TS and set the output to a different folder or HDD if possible and let us know what happens.

It's working fine if i load m2ts files.
Well i have to load m2ts files manual and use append option.

Have you tried reloading the MPLS file and then muxing to M2TS on a different folder/HDD or made sure to give your new M2TS file a new name when trying the MPLS file? As I said, I've never had this problem before and I can't see your pic but it sounds like tsMuxeR is naming your new M2TS file the same name as one of the M2TS files that already exist in the play list which is why you should re-try using the MPLS file just make sure to 'browse' for a new location to put the new M2TS file. I'm just guessing but I know for a fact that tsMuxeR doesn't have problems with MPLS files. You could also try using eac3to to join the files.

[sangwich]

Roman, your proggy is the best :thanks:. I would like to suggest few features that could make it even better.

1. I wonder if it is possible to write subtitles as srt when demuxing blu-ray files? I'm not sure if they even available on blu-ray in any text form, but if they are it would be nice to have this feature.

2. Also, since you added support for Blu-ray play lists (many thanks for this feature), would it be possible to write out a chapter list when demuxing?

3. There is a feature to add SPS/PPS to h264 stream but it would be nice to be able strip redundant SPS/PPS frames too. They only matter for PS3 AFAIK and they are waste for many other applications.

Cheers

[csdesigns]

Roman, let me first comment on what an excellent app you have created for everyone. Great job!

I have a general question about converting from a HD DVD to BD, mostly pertaining to whether or not the process has simplified some within the past few months since the initial guides were posted. I have the HD DVD version of the film 'Reds', which oddly enough comes in on two discs. I would like to convert this into a single BD, and I was wondering if the following would work:

Source the first EVO from the first disc, then append the remaining three EVOs
Click on the VC1 stream and change the framerate to 24000/1 and select the 'Remove Pulldown' option
Select the main E-AC3 track
Click on the 'Create Blu-ray Disc' option and then the 'Start Muxing' button
Burn the outputted BDMV folder to BD-R DL

Would this suffice? Or are there still issues with doing a direct conversion like this? EDIT: I just tried the above method and while the PS3 did recognize the BD-RE DL I burned the movie to, it did not play the disc back all that well. It took the PS3 quite a bit longer to read the disc (usually don't have issues with this disc) and mount it in the Video section. Upon playback, the video would play back at about 12fps rather than 24, and there was no audio. The PS3 recognized the audio as being only 112Kbps, so obviously something was wrong there. However, the length of the movie was correctly interpreted by the PS3 as being over 3 hours long, so it seems the concatenation from the sources may have been OK. My next step is to try the same as above but first strip out the E-AC3 from the source EVOs and create just a standard AC-3 with eac3to and then mux. This thread has become so long its hard to find out if this has been addressed already, so I apologize if this is a redundant post and if it is, if someone could point me in the right direction I'd be greatly appreciative. If the above won't work correctly for me in generating a BDMV folder that will play fine on a BD STB like the PS3, is the following still necessary or can I cut out some other steps?:

Demux the first set of EVOs from Disc 1 to VC1 and E-AC3 ES
Demux the second set of EVOs from Disc 2
Run VC1Conv on the VC1 elementary streams to remove the pulldown
Convert the E-AC3 files to standard AC3
Source the ES' from Disc 1 first, then Append the ES' from Disc 2 to appropriate track
(Or will I need to mux ES files from the first disc to a TS and then do the same to the second disc's ES files and then do an Append to the first disc's TS with the second disc's TS)
Choose the Create Blu-ray Disc option
Burn to BD-R DL

Thanks again for the wonderful app and its continued development.

[EPiPH0NE]

^^^Instead of spending all the that time demuxing why not:

1) Run each EVO through eac3to (which can remove the pulldown) -> MKV
1a) at the same time do EAC3 -> AC3
2) Load your first MKV into tsMuxeR and append the last two
3) load your first AC3 into tsMuxeR and append the second two -> 'Create Blu-ray disc'
4) Burn

I'm not sure if you can append individual audio tracks in tsMuxeR, as I've never tried myself, but if you can't you could just mux the MKV's and AC3 tracks in MKV merge then load them into tsMuxeR. Either way, seems like a lot easier/cleaner then what your doing but what do I know?

EDIT:

Actually you do have to demux the stream with eac3to to get the -pulldown and not MKV so you'd have to demux anyway. Oh well, I suck.

[Ryu77]

Is there any application that can demux the chapter times from a Blu-ray disc?

@Roman76r
I would like to report following problem that occur when opening transport stream (.ts) files, containing satellite HD transmission captures of Channel Arte HD (on 19.2E TP 11914 SR 27500 FEC 9/10) : tsMuxeR 1.8.4(b) does not recognize video track (AVC Video stream) and second audio track (MPEG Layer2). (Note: program TsRemux V.0.0.21.2 recognizes 1 Video AVC stream and 2 audio streams MPEG Layer2).

Conditions:
- Captures done with Dreambox DM800HD Gemini 3.60 image. Duration of the captures : 5minutes.
- TS files tested with tsMuxeR version 1.6.3b and with version 1.8.4b.

I hope this information can be useful to you in order to improve the tsMuxeR program.
If you are interested, I could upload a sample (tssplitted) of those captures on a server of your choice, for analysis (please specify minimum sample size needed).

hvda,
this problem is well known since the second EinsFestival Hd transmission in 720p. I had informed the author of tsMuxer about that, but received unfortunately no reply in any form.
The problem is, that something is rejecting tsMuxer to import the video stream. With audio i have no problems.
Lets hope, that somebody now can help. A solution would be great, because only with tsMuxer created (mini) bluray discs (on DVD+R,DVD+RW, BD-R/RE) play the captured hd videos on my Panasonic BD-30.

[Butterfly666]

Is it possible 2 put in the next update more effects for the subtitles like shadows?

Because now it's hard to reed in very light scenes..

[dorati]

Is the development of TSmuxer dead?

[n0mag!c]

When i remuxed vc1 and ac3 into TS with TS muxer and renamed srt created with supread with the same name of muxed ts and put them in the same folder, i can easily watch suptitle with MPC-HC.

What if i cut remuxed video, audio and srt with TSMuxer?

When you're watching your original .TS-file, then subtitles are rendered with DirectVobSub.
When you're muxing .SRT-file with tsmuxer, it renderes text to PGS. So SupRead can't recognize it. That's my guess.

[EPiPH0NE]

tsMuxeR is free from the company roman76 runs/works for so I would guess he either left the company or is happy with it's current state as are their paying customers for which tsMuxeR is bundled with their commercial products. Just a guess.........:confused:

[jj666]

It's a shame if development has stopped as the source wasn't available for any one else to pick up. It's certainly a utility I use daily and the ease of use of the program certainly isn't replaceable easily with any other utility. Would certainly be willing to pay if it turned to a commercial utility or donate if such an option was available :-)

Cheers,

[Nullity]

It would be a shame if development of tsMuxer has stopped as it is probably the most useful program of its kind out there.

I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but there is a slightly newer version (1.8.5) hosted on his company's website that was not posted about here at doom9:

http://www.smlabs.net/tsMuxer/tsMuxeR_1.8.5(b).zip

I downloaded it, but haven't tried it yet. There is no changelog available, so I'm not sure what has been fixed/changed.

I downloaded it, but haven't tried it yet. There is no changelog available, so I'm not sure what has been fixed/changed.No change to Readme, but the two .exe files are 3 days newer.

Hi i just remux audio and video. Leave srt as seperate file.

Unregister DirectVobSub and here is the way i go:

Thanks for the reply I will give it a try or use the front end GUI AVCHD Disk Creator app.

Any advantage or disadvantage to using either.

If that's the case you could try running the raw stream through h264info and change the header to read L4.1 but that may/may not work. Worth a shot unless there's a quicker way.

I've had this problem in the past when the AC3 track isn't recognised. Its not a Tsmuxer problem ( I think ) just the headers on the audio track are screwed.
Use mkv merge and gut a couple of seconds of the begining of the film and that should do the trick.
The other way is to demux the audio track and re-encode it and then remux it back in.

Good luck.

I don't know if you use a PS3 but with the latest firmware 2.40+ it will take 5.1 high profile.

[dieselgg]

I agree, I may have to remux the audio, perhaps the audio bitrate is too high. The Maximum video bitrate for Blueray is 40000 kbps. I know for sure that the error is not because the profile high is 5.1. I have inserted a different video file with a profile high of 5.1, audio bitrate of 384kbps and there were no errors.

I used GUI AVCHD Disk Creator app which is a front end gui for TSMuxer. I converted the video file, which was giving me the problems and converted it to AVCHD without any errors. I will try out the disk when I get a chance.

[survivant001]

I don't know if you use a PS3 but with the latest firmware 2.40+ it will take 5.1 high profile.

Well every file I've put through TsMuxer since 2.40 hasn't needed the profile changed at all, plus every 1080p file has worked aswell ( No black screens, but I could have got lucky with those :) ).

[survivant001]

ah ah ah... it will look my m2ts that doesn't ff and rw . I did some tests with another movies.. and I found that if I remove the Insert xx, the other setting in tsmuxer and the ff and rw works perfectly inthe ps3.

but yesterday, I did another movie.. and guest what.. with the same command line, same procedure.. this one wasn't working..

Hate that. don't know what's wrong.

The 448 Kb/s is the standard bitrate for 5.1 ac3 and must be accepted always. The max ac3 bitrate is 640 Kb/s.

To fix a corrupted ac3 you can use DelayCut.

Hi! everyone

really good software

my question is is't possible to shrink a blu-ray disc to fit on a single BD-R with this tool ???

thx...

[fib0by]

I created a very simple BD, put it on DVD+R DL and tested it on the PS3. It looks OK, but at the end it jumps back to the beginning.

Basically, everything is playing in a loop. It goes through the whole movie, and at the end it starts playing again. This is unusual and it's not what I want.

Is there a way to create a BD that plays the movie only once, then stops?

This depends on the source disc. If after you remove all the extras and unwanted audio and the main movie+audio are <25gb then yes. tsMuxeR does not do any re-encoding so you will have to use another tool (x264,(W)VC-1) to 'shrink' the video or just get a BD-RE 50 disc and don't worry about it.

I get this message when adding some subtitle files:

Not enought RLE buffer for encoding picture (RLE line length > width + 16)

What can be the problem ?

[odin24]

Does anybody know what the benefits would be to load the MPLS playlist from the BD structure rather than the atcual m2ts file. What type of information does the MPLS file hold? I opened one and it was as if I opened the m2ts file.



Main features:

Automatic or manual fps adjustment while mixing
Level changing as well as SEI, SPS/PPS elements and NAL unit delimiter cycle insertion while mixing H.264
Audio tracks and subtitles time shifting;
Ability to extract DTS core from DTS-HD;
Ability to extract AC3 core from True-HD;
Ability to join files;
Ability to adjust fps for subtitles;
Ability to convert LPCM streams into WAVE and vice versa;
Track language information injection into blu-ray structure and TS header.
Ability to cut source files
Ability to split output file
Ability to detect audio delay for TS/M2TS/MPG/VOB/EVO sources
Ability to remove pulldown info from stream
Ability to open Blu-ray playlist (MPLS) files
Ability to convert SRT subtitles to PGS



Thanks, O!

Thanks, O!

If it's a seamless branching title, it'll join the multiple m2ts files for you automagically. Otherwise, if it's a single m2ts, there's no difference.

It is very useful also to get the chapters info.

[odin24]

SamuriHL and magnop,
Thanks guys, great information. Sweet about the chapter info, there's only one movie that I've come across that had more than one m2ts for the main movie... I might revisit that one just to see how well it goes.

Thanks again.

[SamuriHL]

Yea, I forgot about the chapter info. I always open the mpls anyway as it just becomes part of the routine for me. There's no harm in opening it vs the m2ts, so, have at it. :)

[mrr19121970]

@Roman...

I don't know if you look in the forum or support the software anymore, but TSMUXER crashes with 00000.m2ts on the German version of Gone Baby Gone. I suspect it's because of the LPCM track. eac3to can demux OK, so it's not a show stopper - but your software is my 1st choice for getting the job I need done fastest (producing 1 video & 1 language m2ts files on the fly).

Thanks. Mike.

[yamyam]

Hello, Ive remuxed 2 blu rays with tsmuxer into blu ray movie only (so i married an axe murderer & i am legend) both contain dolby true hd then imaged & burned with imgburn, now heres my problem both blu rays play fine in power dvd with sound but when i play these on my ps3 theres no sound, both originals play with sound in the ps3, im wondering if any one can help me with this problem as its probably just a flag missing or something, i cant see anything wrong with the structure in bdedit.

Thanks

[Beastie Boy]

@yamyam, does the outputfrom tsMuxer contain TrueHD or ac3? I always though tsMuxer only used the core ac3 stream. I don't know why you have no sound though. Sorry.

Cheers, Beastie.

[yamyam]

Sorry should have gave a little more info, they contains true hd i dont want to downconvert although i tried this as an experiment & the downsample to ac3 works flawlessly plays sound in the ps3, but i want to keep the truehd track intact im just baffled as why ive got no sound, i dont have any trouble with any other sound format DTS-HD-MA i have no trouble at all with.

Thanks

[Beastie Boy]

OK, well I don't think TrueHD muxing works in tsMuxer. AFAIK, the only (free) way to mux TrueHD is by using tsRemux. I have a small clip that I used to test and it plays OK using Theatre Studio on the PC. I'm waiting for delivery of a HDD and external case to try it as an AVCHD on the PS3.

Cheers, Beastie.

[yamyam]

OK, Thanks for the info, dont understand why it works in power dvd though, for some movies i need to open multiple m2ts files or the playlist file tsremux doesnt do either

Thanks

[yamyam]

OK, So i run the blue ray through tsmuxer and no truehd sound for playback on ps3 but it works in power dvd, i then run tsmuxers output through tsremux & all plays ok in ps3, so its only a small problem in tsmuxers output thats corrected when run through tsremux, i wish i knew what it was so that maybe i could correct it maybe with bdedit without using tsremux.

Thanks

[Beastie Boy]

Are you burning to disc as a Blueray, or are you playing as AVCHD? I can't get AVCHD to work with TrueHD.

[yamyam]

Not sure on that, i always select the blu ray option in tsmuxer & tsremux, although nero showtime has shown them up before as AVCHD, how do i know if im burning as blu ray or AVCHD ?

[Beastie Boy]

how do i know if im burning as blu ray or AVCHD ?

If you're burning, then that answers my question. I wondered if you were playing from hard drive. I have only just started using the Bluray/AVCHD output from tsMuxer and am still finding out what works with the PS3. However, I am using AVCHD format from hard drive.

Cheers, Beastie.

[v_o_r_t_e_x]

I used TsMuxeR to make a BluRay Structure from my 720x576 interlaced (4:3) PAL M2TS files.
Basically this worked fine. I was able to update the index file and burn this to a DVD as a AVCHD.

The PS3 plays those moves, but scales them to 16:9. I assume this is related to my configuration (PS3 and Projector).
Because I remember when I had a digital set-top-box connected, everything was scaled to 16:9.
Although playing the M2TS files directly from a memory stick keeps the aspect ratio. Bdedit shows PID 1011, Stream Type: AVC, Details 576p, 25, 4:3.
But this is not my main concern.

What I miss is an option to add several M2TS files to one disc. And yes, I know the "Append" feature.
But this one makes one large movie. I want to keep several movies on one disk. I don't need any menu, just a "skip
to next movie" would be sufficient.
--> Is this somehow possible using TsMuxeR?

[rack04]

Can someone explain what the purpose of the meta file is? I'm trying to convert a mkv with h264 and AC3 to blue-ray format. The output file is set to the name of the movie. Inside this folder I get the BDMV and CERTIFICATE folder, but outside of the movie folder I see a meta file. Also, has anyone experienced no playback using PowerDVD. The movie progresses but I get just a black screen. However I am able to play the m2ts file using MPC-HC. Unfortunately I don't yet have a blue-ray player to test the burnt disc. Thanks.

[n0mag!c]

ah ah ah... it will look my m2ts that doesn't ff and rw . I did some tests with another movies.. and I found that if I remove the Insert xx, the other setting in tsmuxer and the ff and rw works perfectly inthe ps3.

but yesterday, I did another movie.. and guest what.. with the same command line, same procedure.. this one wasn't working..

Hate that. don't know what's wrong.
This is very inconvenient issue we got with TsMuxer. I use this trick to solve it:
1. Create blu-ray structure with TsMuxer.
2. Pass m2ts file from "stream" folder to TsRemux to create new blu-ray.
3. Use this new "stream" folder from TsRemux result, and all other files from TsMuxer result. This saves languages and subtitles descriptions and chapters information.

TsMuxerGUI stores muxing parameters in this file to pass to TsMuxer console application. ".Meta" file is no more needed after muxing process.

How to mux content from 50 GB disc fit in 25 GB disc?


tsMuxeR doesn't do any shrinking of video or audio. If after removing all unwanted Video/Audio streams from your main M2TS file leaves you with a >25GB file then you will have to use other tools (x264/(W)VC-1/eac3to) to shrink/compress either the Audio/Video streams to fit on a BD-R/RE 25.

Re-encoding a BD into a single-layer DVD is not a good idea to me.
As EPiPH0NE says you will get a 25 GB file after removing unwanted audio and sub files. It means 1/6 compression. (approximately you will need a 4GB file for DVD)

I would suggest two methods:
Use a double-layer DVD and this time compression will be 1/3 (use Megui),
or
Split the main ts or m2ts by two with TSMuxer and recompress them by Megui and write the recompressed files on two single -layer disks.
(compression will be 1/3 again)

It adds nothing over your m2ts file since it adds only empty folders which is needed for media recognized as BD.
Finally; if you have a 25GB m2ts file, you gonna get 25 GB BD disk.
In your case if you have a 4 GB m2ts file, after creating a BD disk with TS muxer, the lenght of BD will be 4 GB...

Hmmmm...Well it depends...he has an MKV file which I am guessing has x264+AC3/DTS and if it's already 4.37GB then muxing to M2TS will add a few bytes for the conatiner pushing it over the DVD-R size limit. I could be wrong..I'm kninda buzzed......

Why don't you drop some of your mkv files in tsmuxer and check out how much they grow, it will probably get bigger with a fairly consistent growth pct.

OK; i just tried to make BD from a mkv (h264)
Original was 390 MB, created m2ts has been 410 Mb ; means ten percent increased.
So it might be told that re-encoding to a 3.5 GB m2ts file will be safe enough for burning a DVD.
(I was comparing the lenghts of m2ts file and created BD Folder.)

Your increase appears to be a 4.9% increase (390->410) and the conversion that I just ran came out to a 5.1% increase (74.5->78.5). I don't know if the results are linear but when I get home I'll have to test a larger file.

[odin24]

The size increase has to do with the size of the source file, the larger you get the more room you'll need.

For a DVD9, the header space for m2ts/blu-ray muxing is 570mb. For a DVD5 it is 313mb. For a BD25 you're looking at just over 1GB.

Yes; %5*2= % 10 for safe ;)

[n0mag!c]

while removing pulldown from MPEG2 video stream (30fps) it must be also flagged as progressive. Else with created blu-ray output we got blu-ray with incompatible video stream (progressive 24 fps not marked as progressive) and stuttering playback on PS3 (and possibly all others stand alone br players).

I use this formula:
Taget size
---------- x 100 == "max size" before muxing into BR/AVCHD
110

Then before encoding do:
Max size -/- (size audio + size subs) = max size for video. Give that number to the bitratecalculator (in Megui).

Have you tried using "Auto Encode"? Using this feature MeGUI will calculate the video bitrate to acheive the "max size".

Yes but muxing into BR / M2TS requires approx 10% overhead, hence the pre-calculation ;)

You only need 7% of a DVD9 (8152mb) reserved for the m2ts header, which comes to 570mb.

[VintageGuy]

My best format to fit on a DVD is to get the audio down at least 300mb. Usually if I have a 640kb 6 channel I will convert 224kb 6 channel. Then TSmuxeR converts that close to 4.37gb. The video I never touch.

That's if the MKV you have is 4.37gb to begin with.

[Atak_Snajpera]

Overhead is not constant! it changes according to movie length , audio type , audio bitrate.

[odin24]

Overhead is not constant! it changes according to movie length , audio type , audio bitrate.

Isn't is though, to a certain extent. Assuming you recode to a specific media size (DVD5, DVD9, BD25). I rip my own BDs, recode to fit to DVD9 with DTS and subs, really the only constant there is there is the fact the BD/m2ts header is going to be 570mb.

On the other hand, if all you are doing is converting (mkv-->m2ts) and streaming/copying, then yes I agree, the header will be proportional to the source file and it's streams.

[n0mag!c]

As Atak_Snaipera says: "Overhead is not constant!"
For instance, headers (as you use this term) size of 180 min movie will be two times greater than of 90 min movie.

[odin24]

Maybe I'm not clear on what a header is then, all I know is; regardless of how long, or what type of audio is used I always reserve 570mb of a DVD9 that I cannot use for any A/V stream.

I'm not trying to sound rude or cynical, but what exactly is a "header"... I thought knew what it was?

[EPiPH0NE]

[nvm}}

[fib0by]

For a 8150 MB target (2-layer DVD), I subtract the sizes of the "naked" AC3 and SUP tracks from 8150, and use the result to calculate the "ideal" bitrate for the .264 track. Then I multiply the "ideal" value by 0.95 and that's what I use for x264 in MeGUI.

So basically I assume there's a 5% overhead for one .264 track, one AC3 track, and one SUP track, muxed/authored with tsMuxer on a 8150 MB disk.

Seems to work OK so far.

I have the excact same issue, the only difference is that I am burning my back-ups to a BD-25 and playing them back on my Panasonic DMP-BD50.
With TrueHD discs my Panasonic just refuses to play them, when remuxed with TsmuxeR, but if I remux them again with TsRemux and then replace the original m2ts stream from TsmuxeR with the new one from Tsremux and then burn it all is ok.

The "funny" thing is that the Tsremux output, when burned to a BD-25 wont play on the Panasonic either, strange....

But if there is any one out there with a Panasonic DMP-BD50, I can confirm that this work around works for it :D

Hello all,

i have a mkv with VC1, 23.976 fps without pulldown and when I play it on the ps3 it stutters a lot after I muxed in BDMW.

Other VC1 that I have has a pulldown and play fine, so I think because no pulldown it stutters.

Can I fix this? Is it possible to mux with a program and adding the pulldown? (without encoding?)

Please help!

Does anyone know if it's possible to make more than one cut at a time? I'm trying to edit out the commercials from a TS capture. It works if I cut out every program block separately and then combine them but this far more time consuming as tsMuxeR has to reread the TS file for each cut.

I tried adding multiple cut arguments to the meta file but tsMuxeR only accepts the last cut set as arguments.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi There

Thanks for this great free application. Much appreciated.
Does anyone know if tsMuxer is still updated or supported eventhough it is free?
Also, do you think the creators of tsMuxer will fix the problem related to TrueHD in AVCHD/BR muxing? Maybe the creator of TsRemux will introduce 4 gig file splitting for fat32 drives.
Anyway, keep up the good work.

Thanks

roman hasn't been around in quite a while, it seems as though development has stopped. I hope that if this is the case, he would be so kind as to open source tsmuxer, as it is definitely the best program of it's kind and it would be nice if the community could pick up and add new features.

vc1 files under mkv container create problem with TSMuxer.

TSMuxer creates TS files from the vc1 raw files (as well as h264 files) and you can trim them without any problem with the same muxer.
Demuxed vc1 files by TSMuxer or eac3to, after remuxing them into a ts container with TSMuxer, work very well.

Today, i gave it a go with VC1-mkv files created by eac3to or Haali Muxer; vc1-mkvs never work after remuxing them into a ts container with TSMuxer.

Audio video syncronization is never available since remuxed ts files never understand the duration of the media.

Have a look at this:

Real duration is 1 hr 49 m; no problem with ts and mkv files at all but look at the picture on the right; it seems 3:37:
It is a remuxed TS using a vc1-mkv via TSMuxer.

Hi There,

I have done the following tests during the week since it is very confusing to remember what tsMuxeR and TsRemux can do. I am also doing this to be used in AVCHD on disk for PS3 playback since I do not have a Blu-Ray writer and does not want to copy 5 DVD's each time and change them during playback. Will update it when complete. Sources was "Advantage point" for Dolby TrueHD, "Kung Fu Hustle" for LPCM and content from Demo world for DTS-HD MA. Any comments are welcome. I will post this in TsRemux as well since it was part of my tests. Hope it helps.

Dolby True HD:
--------------
1. tsMuxeR Version 1.8.4(b):
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > DVD > NOK
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > AVCHD > NOK

2. TsRemux v0.21.2:
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > TsRemux > Blu-Ray > DVD > OK
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > TsRemux > Blu-Ray > AVCHD > OK

Note:
-----
The source (*.m2ts) generated from tsMuxeR (Blu-Ray output) is remuxed again by TsRemux
(also Blu-Ray output) due to the .mpls file from TSmuxeR causing Dolby True HD not to play.
tsMuxeR is only used in this case for the splitting function. For both DTS HD-MA & LPCM,
tsMuxeR can be used since it can split big files into 4Gig chunks for PS3 as well. For
BD-R's it does not matter since it does not need to be split if the file is less than
25Gig.


DTS HD-MA:
----------
1. tsMuxeR Version 1.8.4(b):
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > DVD > OK
-tsMuxeR > Blu-Ray > AVCHD > OK

2. TsRemux v0.21.2:

"Change fps" is selected but nothing is changed. This will insure that forward and rewind works. "Language:und (Undetermined)" is set to the correct settings for subtitles and audio. Not changed if correct.

I also have 2 Questions:

1. Did someone find a way to Author more than one playlists in AVCHD format for Dolby TrueHD playable on PS3, either by bdedit or whatever. Please share this. I will appreciate it. I do not want to create AVCHD structure for each file.

2. The pause of 2-3 seconds during playback when next file is accessed is not so bad, but since this is actually a backup of my originals will this be OK when merged again and burned on BD-R when I have one?

Thx
Duppie

i have a mkv with VC1, 23.976 fps without pulldown and when I play it on the ps3 it stutters a lot after I muxed in BDMW.
Other VC1 that I have has a pulldown and play fine, so I think because no pulldown it stutters.

@kurt thanks for the reply.
I have tried but the AVCHD still stutters. Any other ideas?
If originally pulldown was removed with TsMuxer (but not with "vc1conv"), then video stutters. If we can find the way to mark VC-1 interlaced again, then we can properly remove pulldown again with "vc1conv". But I don't know such a way.

[lchiu7]

Not sure if this is possible but will ask. Our local HD broadcasts are DVB-T with h.264 video and AC3 audio. They are UHF. I find that the captures I do often gets bad audio data though it's usually inaudible (or the occasional burst of static).

I am trying to compress these files down a bit since a 40 minute show is 3.3G. So I demux the audio/video using dgavcindex, compress the video with x264.exe and mux back the new video with the ac3 track demuxed. Problem is, the ac3 audio track seems to have bad data and txmuxer issues error messages about bad AC3 data encountered, resync. This means the resultant video file is out of sync but the original file is in sync

Can tsmuxer be told to ignore this bad data and fill in the gaps if that is possible?

Thanks

Why don't you try and fix the audio by running it through BeSliced it may fix your problem :-)

[Butterfly666]

^^^^Have you tried changing the FPS to 24 instead of 23.976 in tsMuxeR? Worth a shot......

Thanx for the help EPiPH0NE but I had tried that and other settings 2 in TSmuxer but without any luck.

If originally pulldown was removed with TsMuxer (but not with "vc1conv"), then video stutters. If we can find the way to mark VC-1 interlaced again, then we can properly remove pulldown again with "vc1conv". But I don't know such a way.

Hope we can fix/edit the vc-1 in the future... thanx for the reply n0mag!c

I had put the mkv direct through vc1conv in eac3to instead dumuxed vc1 from the mkv.

Than muxed it with tsmuxer and it worked!

Test file was 100mb splited from the orginal file 26.1GB

It played fine on ps3 but the happyness was for a short time because I have a problem now with tsmuxer.

The 100mb testfile works in TSmuxer but when I do this with the orginal 26.1gb file, Tsmuxer gives me a error on 9.8% when muxing. It says: Only ADVANCE profile are supported for now.

But when I use Tsmuxer with the mkv without put it through vc1conv, I get no errors only it stutters then when playing.

I’ve splitted the big file in 2 and tested again but I get the same error….

Any ideas someone? Please help!

[madshi]

Neither vc1conv nor eac3to support MKV files as input format. So what you did cannot work properly. I'd suggest that you demux the VC-1 track and then run it through eac3to. If that still fails to work properly, then please post the eac3to log. My guess would then be that the pulldown was already removed - but incorrectly. If that's the case I don't think we can fix that, anymore...

Hi madshi.

Today i remuxed back VC1 (the file demuxed as vc1 by eac3to from an HD DVD) to mkv with eac3to.
I think you use your own source filter in this process since neither haali nor gabest filters can recognize standalone VC1 files?
But finally output file has the same problem:

But finally output file has the same problem
As far as I can see, the problem seems to be that tsMuxeR doesn't handle the VC-1 MKVs created by eac3to well. That seems to be a bug in tsMuxeR and not in eac3to. You can use mkvextract to extract the VC-1 track from the MKV and feed that to tsMuxeR to work around the problem.

[rica]

madshi, i did this test with matroska multiplexer on graph as well and i told it's not related with eac3to before.

Hello madshi, it really accepts the 100mb mkv test file as input. I had test it again yesterday. In eac3to gui I use the
vc1conv. This is the test file:

http://rapidshare.com/files/139568236/Alexander_Test_.rar.html

First I put the demuxed vc1 trough vc1conv in eac3to gui, then trough tsmuxer. The file stutters on the ps3. Second test I put the mkv direct trough vc1conv in eac3to gui then again trough tsmuxer and it plays fine on the ps3.

Only problem I had was tsmuxer after I putted the big file
trough vc1conv. Tsmuxer gave me the error on 9.8% ('only advance profile are support now...')

But I managed to work finally!
I done this first with 100mb mkv test file to see if it works.

I put the test file trough tsmuxer and made a ts file and after that I made the ts to a new mkv file with Haali dsmux and back trough tsmuxer to bluray. It worked on the ps3 without stuttering :) So I did the same with the big mkv (26.1Gb) and it worked 2!

Only Tsmuxer gave me 'bufferoverflow' error but this was a easy fix. I demuxed the ac3 file and put it as a sepperated file in tsmuxer with the orginal mkv and the ac3 from the mkv I didn't choose.

:thanks: everyone!

Please can someone tell me how I can demux a Blu-Ray LPCM audio track to seperate mono wave files.
I've added the file to TSMuxer, but the Demux options, the 2nd being the one I want, are shaded out and not selectable.

Hey, seems tsmuxer and ps3 new updates are almost there.

I have a mkv file that is not 720p compilant, but it played on the ps3, including with DTS audio, there was a green bar on the botton but the movie was there.

And the subtitle did not show up.

Any suggestion of solving the problem ?
Only re-encoding to 1280x720 ? the video is 1280x688

Anyone?

Thanks Rica, I was hoping you weren't going to say the eac3to word, I'm not aufait with command lines and every time I've tried to use it I can't get it to work.
Isn't there a nice GUI somewhere that'll do it all for me, RipBot264 unfortunately is set to convert all HD audio to FLAC.
I've got the demuxed single WAV, will Nero WAVE Editor somehow save them to single mono wavs?
The aim is to have single wavs for use with Surcode to make a 1536kbps DTS soundtrack.

No need for Nero. Just make sure you have Surcode 1.0.23 installed and ea3to will 'hook' into it.

@ hdpete
Use eac3toGUI or eac3to_and_moreGUI, I use either one to recode to DTS... it's the only way I'll watch a movie. Also, you are not limited to converting PCM, this works with TrueHD, DD+, and even regular AC3@640kb/s.

@ EPiPHONE,
When using the command method, how does eac3to know which audio stream within the m2ts file to recode if there are multiple audio streams? I'm assuming either the first stream or just remux to m2ts with only the desired stream?

eac3to input.m2ts output.dts -1536

Also, is it normal for tsMuxeR to not accept the newly created DTS track straight out of eac3to? I have to take that file run it through mkvmerge/extract first, then tsMuxeR will recognize it/

[madshi]

It will demux the first DTS track in the m2ts file. If there's no DTS track, it will transcode the first audio track in the m2ts file.

Surcode sometimes creates DTS files with zero padding which tsMuxeR doesn't like. You don't need to run them through mkvmerge/extract. Instead just run them through eac3to again. That's much faster...

If you want to make sure check track number with:

eac3to input.m2ts
enter; you will see all information...

And code will be:

eac3to input.m2ts track no: output.dts

Hi!

I don't have an answer for you, but I'm curious to understand how and why you created the .MKV file as other than 720p compliant (or at least all MOD16)?

Because, most of the downloaded movies on mkv format are ripped from a blu-ray that has anamorphic widescreen and to reduce the size of the file they cut part of the black bars up and down.
That's why it's not blu-ray compilant.
I've heard that there is a way to re-add the bars but it need to re-enconde and seems very complicated.

There is any solution for a movie like 1280x588 get back to 1280x720 ?

Now that I know how to use eac3to, if I convert a HD DVD video only using RipBot264 and seperatley use eac3to to convert the DD+ sountrack to WAVs and Surcode to DTS, will the resulting audio sync with the video coverted to Blu-Ray format by Ripbot? Cheers.

It will, but you will need to remove the pulldown from the HDDVD video stream before you run it through ripbot... I'm not sure how using ripbot. I do this through tsMuxeR then recode using MeGUI.

yes i always use this:

note: Input file is dts created by eac3to -re-encoded into dts via surcode- (or extracted by eac3to directly), output file is dts again which has revized by eac3to.

No; you see.
BTW, here in first step eac3to just extracts (or dumps ) waves and later surcode takes the job from eac3to for re-encoding and surcode itsellf creates this zero padding. So until surcode encodes, eac3to has nothing to remove.

In second step eac3to this time removes that :)

Is removing the zero padding with eac3to the same thing as running through mkvtoolnix? Obviously the command line method is far more easier and faster, I was just wondering if it was the same result just different methods.

Mkvtoolnix directly accepts the dts without zero padding removal; but really to me, mkv is just an intermediate format(sorry it was a container) which i'll never use finally but for just creating non-remuxed final re-encodes with MeGui.
CMD method is the best way if you don't need to type lots of parameters (i 'd newer prefer x264 in command line) and bla-bla...

Every time I have done source -> DTS with eac3to, at least 100+ times, zero padding removal has always been automatic and I have never had to re-run the DTS through eac3to for the zero padding to be removed so someone is doing something wrong here.

[hdpete]

HD DVD's - I've demuxed the video and audio (usually Dolby Digital Plus) using EVOdemux, fixed the video using either vc1conv or h264info and added the resulting fixed video file to TSMuxer. I change the file extension of the demuxed DD+ soundtrack to .ac3 and then add that to TSMuxer. Then mux together to form a blu-ray file.
Whilst the audio shows as DD+ in TSMuxer, I'm not sure that this is compliant blu-ray audio, until I play the resulting BD-R back through a standalone player connected to my Onkyo amp via HDMI I can't be sure.
I don't really want to convert the DD+ to wavs and then DTS via Surcode, as you are already converting a compressed lossy soundtrack so the resulting DTS track won't be as good as the original DD+.
Does anyone know about the comapatability of DD+ with blu-ray, is there something I need to do to the audio before?
Thanks for your help.

DD+ is not a compliant BD stream and should be changed to either AC3 or DTS. Usually DD+ is at 1536kb/s so you're not losing any bitrate when recoding to DTS @ 1536kb/s. Also, the wavs extracted from the DD+ stream are uncompressed, the Dolby Digital and DTS formats are what make them lossy.

When you demux using EVOdemux you set the extension of the audio stream to AC3 regardless of what type of Dolby it is. Same with subtitles, set as .sup... run through SUPread to convert to HDDVD .sup to BD .sup.

Don't forget, when demuxing using EVOdemux to "Read XPL" before demuxing, the will auto-join the two Feature_EVO's and identify languages of the streams.

EDIT: Besides removing the pulldown, are you recoding your HDDVD vc1 or h264 video stream before muxing to BD?

OK, I stand corrected... sort of. You cannot just take a HDDVD eac3 track and import it directly to a BD, however BD does support a limited eac3.

Thanks for the clarification SeeMoreDigital.

@ hdpete,
I'm not sure, or even if this is possible, how to take a HDDVD DD+ track and make it a DD+ BD compliant stream, AC3 core with DD+ data.

[madshi]

That's not possible, unless you buy a DD+ encoder from Dolby which probably costs a fortune.

Unfortunately by just converting a a DD+ soundtrack to wavs and then DTS you are losing quality over the origianl DD+ soundtrack. Because the DD+ audio is already lossy, converting it to a wav won't somehow bring back the quality of the original uncompressed source. The original conversion from the uncompressed source to DD+ lost a lot of audio data, you can't put that back once converted. You should ideally only encode to a lossy format from a lossless source, i.e. PCM, TrueHD, DTSHD. This is why I would want to keep the original DD+, but it seems it's not possible.

With regard to video recoding, once the demuxed VC1 video has been fixed using vc1conv, it shows as a 1080p video in TSMuxer with a 23.976fps. I've burned this to a BD-RE and it plays fine, with the exception of the DD+ audio which we already know won't work.

I may be misunderstanding how this lossy/lossless thing works then. How is it that each monowav from a AC3/DTS track has a bitrate of ~2300kb/s, recoded to LPCM, 16bit, with a final bitrate of ~4.6mb/s... from a DD+ or DTS source of 1.5mb/s.

Thanks for this info, a few questions; How long does it take to "fix" the vc1 stream, and is this the same as just removing the pulldown? Also, I've searched high and low for vc1conv, where can I find it?

This guide shows gives you links to vc1conv and h264info, depending on the codec used on the HD DVD http://www.glenharrison.com/bluray/, I found that once you've fixed the video file, you can do the rest in tsMuxer. The vc1conv takes up to an hour.
Although coverting a lossy audio format back to a WAV will still give you a large file, that wav will only have the audio data in from the lossy file you coverted it from. Think of it as converting a CD to 192kbps mp3, that only gives you average sound quality beacuse to get the file size small you've lost audio data, that's now gone forever. If you convert the mp3 back to a wav, it won't restore the original quality of the CD but you'll get a big file size because the audio data on a wav takes up more space.

any one tried ripping Doomsday the movie?

i get a message that some tracks can't be recognized by tsmuxer. what tracks are those?

This tools is great...nothing else can handle subtitles perfectly.

It could be awesome if tsMuxeR supports DVB ESTI subtitle remux/demux/convert from PGS. Many set top box users will be amazed that their STB can be a HD Player!

the dvbsub.c in libavcodec project may help

Hello all,

I have a quick question, I've been trying to convert a 14 GB .ts file that is 1920x1084, 25 fps & Level 4 to 1920x1080, 23.976 & Level 4.1 w/no loss in quality, I don't need to make the file any smaller at all...I've tried the .ts, .m2ts & Blu-ray format options but I get the same error message each time.
Errors:
Reading buffer overflow. Possible container streams are not synchronized. Please verify stream fps. File name...

The movie is in sync & will play on my computer w/out issue...I attempted to use RipBot w/this file but it played very choppy when finished. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Hi all !

To resample 1080 video sequences (to reduce disk footprint), I currently use open source «codec x264vfw H264/MPEG-4 AVC codec» published by Source Forge (build from july 08). No quality or setting problem, but...

But this codec can't compress video with greater than 9990 Kb/s bitrate...

My purpose would have been to compress with 15000 to 20000 Kb/s bitrates.

Anybody knows an other AVC codec (free or not) which could be drived by AVIsynth/VirtualDubMod as frame server to produce these bitrate values ??

:thanks::thanks::thanks::thanks:

[Beastie Boy]

Anybody knows an other AVC codec (free or not) which could be drived by AVIsynth/VirtualDubMod as frame server to produce these bitrate values ??

Take a look at MeGUI. It is an encoding GUI that includes Avisynth functions and will download the latest x264 builds, plus other required stuff.

Cheers, Beastie.

Ah, there's your problem. Subs are only compatible in Blu-Ray format, your SOL for m2ts. Also your video needs to be a BD complaint size as well, either 1920x1080 (not 1920x800, etc.), or 1280x720 (not 1280x528, etc). Non compliant streams are resizable using re-encoding applicatons.

Well, that seems complicated for me.
Does that mean that there is no solution for this?
I don't want to create BD disks, I just want to stream video to my TV set through PS3 with subtitles. And it don't have to be Full HD since I don't have Full HD TV.
What do you suggest?
Another program?

I don't think it's possible with the PS3, other than hardcoding the subs... which would mean recoding.

For those not familiar with eac3to, the program has recently been updated to provide output of a Bluray compatible TrueHD track, ie. TrueHD with AC3. The good news is that this stream is accepted by tsMuxeR and recognised as TrueHD :)

eg. eac3to inputFile Output.thd+ac3

I successfully muxed a m2ts file with tsMuxeR, and eac3to indicated that the resulting file did contain TrueHD data. However, until a buy a NMT based player, I cannot play the file.

As ever, please post any eac3to questions in the eac3to thread.

But I have one problem with only one video.
When I mux the video with .srt subtitles into a Blu-ray strucure, and open it with MediaInfo then, it says that there is a Video0 Delay about 36min...

It doesn't seem to work for me.

I backed up a blu-ray to hard drive, extracted the TrueHD audio using eac3to using the file extension thd+ac3, muxed it back to the video file in tsMuxer and created a blu-ray. Built an image with ImgBurn and burnt to a BD-RE, but it gave no sound when played back through my Sony BDP-S350 via HDMI to my Onkyo TX-NR905 amp, video played fine. TsMuxer just don't like TrueHD!

Look at the following post. I have tested all of this previously:

http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1170182&postcount=1875

In short:
tsMuxer - Good for PCM and DTS-HD
TsRemux - Good for TrueHD

tsMuxer just does not work with Dolby TrueHD. So, try TsRemux if you want to keep TrueHD. It worked for me. The other alternative is to convert Dolby TrueHD to PCM and then use tsMuxer. It also works very well.

[Beastie Boy]

Duppie, excellent post. I don't know how I missed that one. Does tsRemuxer maintain the <4GB files created by tsMuxeR?

Yes, you use tsMuxeR or HDBDSplitGUI to spilt the files in 4 gig chunks and then mux the result through tsRemux. This I only do for TrueHD. For the rest (PCM and DTS-HD) I only use tsMuxeR.

hi, when i play this video with my Blu-ray Player, and switch on the subtitles, they aren't shown.
But at the end of the video, ~ the last 2, 1 seconds, funnily enough, there appear some subtitles, but veerrry fast back-to-back..
It's very strange that they are shown at the end, and then soo fast. Every other video is playable perfectly with subtitles.
i don't understand why it doesn't work with this video..:confused:

Does anybody know why and how to override?

[Ljubus]

My best format to fit on a DVD is to get the audio down at least 300mb. Usually if I have a 640kb 6 channel I will convert 224kb 6 channel. Then TSmuxeR converts that close to 4.37gb. The video I never touch.

That's if the MKV you have is 4.37gb to begin with.

hey

does anybody know how can I convert audio from 640 kb to 224 kb, so I can fit the converted movie to 1 DVD ?

Thank you :)

You can demux to thd+ac3 directly which really has an ac3 core. But remuxing it with TSMuxer never gives true hd sound; if you are getting sound it is most probably the core ac3.

So the way you should follow is remuxing m2ts file (which you got by TSMuxer) again into an m2ts or BR via TSRemux.
In this case thd gives sound. (not core ac3)

hmmm i would need a whole proceedure :)

[rica]

eac3 is a program, am i correct ? pretty big one for this simple task - over 500 MB ?

ty :)

Yes, eac3to is a great program which is not just an audio demuxer/converter.
Just use search.

ok i searched this forum and google, downloaded eac3to and aften-A52 encoder ...... read "tutorial" ---> http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Eac3to/How_to_Use

and i have no idea how to use it :confused:

where is the command line ? when i click eac3to.exe there is a window but it disappears in 2 seconds .....

OK, make an empty folder named eac3to under C , extract ec3to into this folder.
Now start menu > all programs > accessories > command prompt, right click on it and "run as adminastrator"; command prompt window will be opened.

write:

eac3to\eac3to.exe "input folder\input file" "output folder\output file" (enter...)

But I have one problem with only one video.
When I mux the video with .srt subtitles into a Blu-ray strucure, and open it with MediaInfo then, it says that there is a Video0 Delay about 36min...
I noticed, that TsMuxer incorrectly mux PGS subtitles when any delay has being specified. Can anyone confirm this?
Maybe this is the same issue with SRT subtitles? Did you specified any delay with this video?

Hi,

when i play the video, there isnt any delay between video and audio. MediaInfo says that there is a Video0 delay about 36min (Subtitles), when i mux this video with .srt subtitles by using tsMuxeR.
But when I play the muxed video with my Blu-ray player, and switch on the subtitles, no subtitles appear. (-> I think that the Video0-delay acts a part)
But at the end of the video, about the last 1 or 2 seconds, funnily enough, there appear some subtitles, but veerrry fast back-to-back..
It's very strange that they are shown at the end, and then soo fast. Every other video is playable perfectly with subtitles.

@n0mag!c: What do you mean with "any delay that has being specified" and "if i specified any delay with this video"?
what kind of delay?

[hdjerin]

I have the excact same issue, the only difference is that I am burning my back-ups to a BD-25 and playing them back on my Panasonic DMP-BD50.
With TrueHD discs my Panasonic just refuses to play them, when remuxed with TsmuxeR, but if I remux them again with TsRemux and then replace the original m2ts stream from TsmuxeR with the new one from Tsremux and then burn it all is ok.

The "funny" thing is that the Tsremux output, when burned to a BD-25 wont play on the Panasonic either, strange....

But if there is any one out there with a Panasonic DMP-BD50, I can confirm that this work around works for it :D

Dear Denner
May you please share the information of BD titles with truehd track you processed ?

[hdpete]

Dear Denner
May you please share the information of BD titles with truehd track you processed ?

Denner's method didn't work for me using a Sony BDP-S350. I can't get any TrueHD audio to go through TsMuxer, once it has, it seems to be recked forever, whether or not it's passed through TsRemux afterwards.
If I remux from the original rip and can fit it onto a BD25 using TsRemux to Blu-Ray, it'll play fine recognising the TrueHD.
Problem is some video's need compressing to fit to a BD25 and then TsRemux won't let you add 2 different files, i.e. the compressed video using RipBot and the THD extracted by eac3to, only TsMuxer will let you do that, and that's no good for THD.
Consequently, I've only been able to keep TrueHD using TsRemux when there's no need to shrink the video to get a fit to a BD25. Other than that, the only way to keep uncompressed audio is to convert the audio to pcm using eac3to, then fix it for use with TsMuxer using Pcm2Tsmu, then mux the pcm and shrunken video stream using TsMuxer to blu-ray. Trouble with that is the PCM audio is about 3 x bigger than the TrueHD, so consequently you have to shrink the video smaller to get it all to fit on a BD25.

[n0mag!c]

What do you mean with "any delay that has being specified" and "if i specified any delay with this video"?

I'm talking about "delay" field in TsMuxer. When you're muxing your movie with TsMuxer do you change default value "0" to any for your SRT subtitles?
I'm personally muxing SRT subtitles with 1080p video (not 720p as yours) and having no problems. Maybe you can post few first lines from your SRT file so we can check it?

hi, I dont change the default value "0" - I never do so, and actually i dont have any problem...

here are the first lines of the SRT file:

1
00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:02,130
Bisher bei Prison Break ...

2
00:00:02,140 --> 00:00:03,390
Wir hauen heute Nacht ab.

3
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,650

noch fließendes Wasser.

4

Trouble with that is the PCM audio is about 3 x bigger than the TrueHD, so consequently you have to shrink the video smaller to get it all to fit on a BD25.

You could mux the compressed video and TrueHD audio into an mkv file first, then import that into TsRemux and do your thing. It adds an extra step, but the final output is exactly what you're looking for. You won't have PCM audio to take up all that space.

It's a shame developement on TsMuxer has stopped - it's a great program, but it has a few bugs and has a great more potential. TsRemux is a decent program, but I feel it lacks many needed features, one of which you already pointed out - that it can only open one file at a time, instead of importing multiple, like TsMuxer.

Hi !

Starting from a VOB file with a MPEG video track and a DTS sound track.

I want to remux it into a ts file.

Here an example with a DTS trailer VOB file, but same with some of my HD movies ... I don't understand why Playstation3 and VLC does not detect the sound track (no sound), and VLC identify it as a subtitle !

Before, just opening the VOB:

After muxing, opening the ts again:

Opening information box in VLC:

Could anyone help me getting a correct TS that includes my DTS track ? Thanks ;)

Thanks for that, I didn't think MKVMerge accepted TrueHD, if it does, what file extension should I use for the extracted TrueHD file in eac3to, I know MKVMerge doesn't accept .thd?

Is there a current drive that writes to BD-RE50?

Certainly the LG GGW-H20L writes to BD-R50

[Beastie Boy]

Same here. I would be interested to hear from anyone getting this to work.

I take it you know where to get BD50's at a sensible price then ?

For DTS (and subtitles) you need to make a AVCHD/BD format or DVD format disc for playback on the PS3, it will not play as a m2ts or ts file. As for the VLC issue, I'm not sure, I do not use VLC.

[NexGen76]

any one tried ripping Doomsday the movie?

i get a message that some tracks can't be recognized by tsmuxer. what tracks are those?


I'm having the same issue with my BD rips after using anydvd hd to rip them to my HD.Do anyone know why TsMuxeR give us this error & know how to fix this or around it......Thxs

If your BD burner can burn BD-R 50 and not BD-RE 50 then you got jacked.

[EPiPH0NE]

If you've already spent the money on a standalone BluRay player and a burner what's an extra $50 for a disc that you will get thousands of uses out of?

Denner's method didn't work for me using a Sony BDP-S350.

Denner's method did work for my panasonic BD30.
Including BD titles "the fifth element", "ghost rider", "blade runner" and "spiderman 3" had ouput TrueHD bitstream to Integra 9.8 preamp.

But "the phantom of opera, japan edition" remuxed by "Denner's method", had abnormal TrueHD bitstream output ... tremor of sound.

ps. In the first "tsmuxer" step, I noted the TrueHD of "the phantom of opera, japan edition" showed 448kbps core, all other titles showed 640kbps core. Any thought ?

My fault, you are correct, MKVmerge doesn't accept TrueHD audio. I had thought I gotten it to work a while back when I was doing a bunch of format testing, but I must have been mistaken.

Sorry about that, I guess I should have tested it again to make sure before I replied. :(

EDIT: Oddly enough, when trying to import a thd+ac3 audio file, MKVmerge accepts it, but thinks it is an AVC/h.264 video stream.

Not if you want to keep the movie, which most people do.
