MuxMan adds additional "weight" ???

[digifruitella]

Very odd.

I have a DVD5, ripped it, Demuxed it with PGCDemux as PGC (m2v, ac3, celltimes, sup)

opened MuxMan, and imported everything that I demuxed from my original DVD5... as MuxMan finished muxing I compared the two; original DVD5 and new Muxed DVD5 and the NEW Dvd is a couple megabytes larger, in fact so much larger that when I try to burn it with Nero Burning Rom it goes over DVD5 mark, into yellow territory... what is going on?

Hi!

1) I'm curious to understand - What's your purpose in demuxing a decrypted commercial DVD, only to remux it in its entirety, using MuxMan?

2) What is the Title and Region number of the original, commercial DVD?

3) Please post two sets of information:

A) All filenames and filesizes of the original, commercial DVD and

B) All filenames and filesizes of the backup DVD you created with MuxMan

original - 4.35 GB (4,680,843,264 bytes)

how about learning how to use MuxMan?

2) What is the Title and Region number of the original, commercial DVD?

how the title will influence the muxing process ??

more then often setarip_old your first statement is to understand if we are talking about "setarip" source or not.

from my point of view the question of digifruitella is totally legit :)

@buzzqw

Hi!how about learning how to use MuxMan?Your speculation is but one possibility. Perhaps "digifruitella" has a different purpose - or is totally misunderstanding the need to use or purpose of using Muxman. Rather than you or I speculating, hopefully, "digifruitella" will respond.


how the title will influence the muxing process ??If it's a DVD that I own (I have an extremely large collection of purchased standard DVDs), I may be able to determine additional underlying reasons for the indicated variances - such as multi-angles, differing audiostreams, etc. Additionally, there might be some insight regarding the indicated elimination of both the original's "VIDEO_TS.VOB" and the "VTS_01_1.VOB" - as well as possibly addressing the original question of increased size as a result of processing with Muxman.


from my point of view the question of digifruitella is totally legitI see nothing posted in this thread that indicates otherwise...

ok, let's digifruitella answer , maybe we will learn something new ;)

what does that have to do with muxman adding on extra megabytes to original files? :confused:

I know exactly the purpose of MuxMan; to mux. That's what it does. What puzzles me, is why in the world does it slightly alter the result so it exceeds a DVD-5.. only so I have to go through additional headache and loss of time to shrink all of it with DVDShrink?

If you don't know the answer, then you can't help. Thanks anyway for trying!

Knowing what the source DVD is could help many people, including myself, determine the cause of the problem. Also if you could post the log file (default location is c:/muxman.log) that could also help.

[digifruitella]

the sources are either PAL or NTSC, using both results in the same thing sometimes, not always.

if i encounter the same thing one more time then I'll post a logfile, I'm done playing with that other DVD. I just used DVDShrink burned it, and deleted it off my hard drive.

@digifruitella

You're being too coy, and that raises suspicions. So I am closing the thread. If you want to clarify things to me in a PM, the thread can be reopened.
