New eac3to GUI: HD-DVD/Blu-Ray Stream Extractor

[Greif]

I really don't see it as just another .NET extension. It's an evolution of the .NET Framework - you are going to need it at some point anyway.

That said, I'm looking to try to do some cool stuff both with the functionality (parallel tasks) and look-and-feel (WPF) of the tool. Using the latest version of the .NET framework ensures that all of the latest and greatest features of .NET are available to me.

It's ok, you can call me a selfish developer ;)

I understand your position.
But, stuff too much cake down your throat, your belly might explode :p
Normally I try to keep my system as slick and (c)lean as can be.
I did not have to reinstall the OS for quite some years, care of good maintenance and caution.
But sometimes there is no other way, just to eat the cookie.

Thank you

Right now, I'm looking into providing SUB and SRT extract options for subtitles. I also want to provide the ability to merge the streams into a single MKV.

[Andy o]

Nice! Keep it up and thanks again.

[dbone1026]

Right now, I'm looking into providing SUB and SRT extract options for subtitles. I also want to provide the ability to merge the streams into a single MKV.

Was just going to make a feature request :-)

Also, how about an option just to pull out the forced subs as in IDX/SUB file, as well as an option to create multiple "Extract As" for audio (i.e. lets say I wanted to extract the original DTS(MA) audio track as well as a secondary AC3 track for compatibility issues with some players I have).

[Greif]

yeah, the multiple extract options sounds good. I need to figure out how to best fit it in.

That new .NET doesn't download properly - does anyone have a link to the full redist?

Hi guys completely new to this. I just started using it. Was wondering if I choose AAC how do I get exactly CBR 128 kbps. Tried doing -quality=0.21 which gives 132kbps and -quality=0.20 does 116.

thanks

I have installed Windows7: I could convert any Bluray with XP but now it doesn't seem to work well. I installed the proggs again, used the app and get this info:

MKV, 1 video track, 2 audio tracks, 2 subtitle tracks, 1:56:52, 24p /1.001

2: AC3, English, 5.1 channels, 640kbps, 48khz

3: DTS, English, 5.1 channels, 24 bits, 1509kbps, 48khz, 11ms
"English DTS 1509kbps"
4: Subtitle (SRT), Dutch, "Nederlands"

So it seems there's something wrong in creating the ac3-file? Next to the 'ac3to' file, is there something else I have to install?

I used version 08 hbdrstreamextractor and installed the latest .net file

[Jeanette]

That works! Thank you so much :thanks:

[longtom]

Great GUI!
Haw do i get chapters for a WAV file extracted from PCM streams?
Which command i have to put in the +options field?

[Greif]

@longtom, this may be a better question to ask in the eac3to thread. You may get a quicker response.

[ddeell72]

nice ! expecting this so long !

Hi Grief,

The strangest thing happened.

I’ve been happy using hdbrstreamextractor successfully for a while now. It's a great program. All of the sudden, on two different Windows 7 computers, with two different bluray discs, I’m getting the identical results (shown below).

Problem is, neither of the computers are providing me with streams in the lower part of your program window.

What could be going wrong? Could a Windows update have changed anything?

I’m not aware of anything I’ve done to either computer to produce these results.

One day the program works great and the next day it stops.

I’m anxious to get back to using your software.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Joel

To get "untouched" audio from DTS Master Audio and LPCM, which option should I select ? RAW ? I tried that but when I try to mux everything together MKVMerge does not accept RAW file.

[Greif]

@joelha: are you still experiencing issues? If you are, then try running the following in a command-window and show me the output:
eac3to.exe "E:\BDMV\STREAM" 1)

@ajamils: not really sure about that one, I seldom use any other format besides AAC. the folks over in the eac3to should probably be able to assist

[tebasuna51]

To extract DTS-MA with eac3to you can use .DTSHD extension, without -core parameter.
To extract LPCM with eac3to to mux after with MkvMerge you need use .WAV. To mux after with tsMuxeR use .W64

Hi Greif

The window of HdBrStreamExtractor isn't resizeable. Can you be so kind and tell me why?

Thank you for that great GUI

[Greif]

It's just how it was initially designed. If I have time, I'll change the layout so it's resizable.

[tormento]

So, you are alive ;)

I have a strange bug: whenever I open the second or third playlist, after having extracted some tracks from the first and the second, NET crashes.

Yes, I have 4.0 installed.

Any idea?

[jmonier]

I have a strange bug: whenever I open the second or third playlist, after having extracted some tracks from the first and the second, NET crashes.

I've seen crashes like this also although I haven't seen anything that points to .NET specifically. If I just restart everything is OK so it's not a big deal.

[Butterfly666]

It looks a nice program to extract a file like dtsma in to ac3. Will try this out, thank you.

[Greif]

Any log files to show after crashes? I will try this scenario out to see if I can reproduce.

[Greif]

Try holding down CTRL when clicking on the Extract button. You will be able to add the '-fix' command-line argument.

Whether or not that will resolve your bad source problem, I'm not sure.

Hi -

I'm new to using the Stream Extractor. I'm trying to do Toy Story 3, that I've ripped to the hard drive. I have selected Feature #2, and chapters, video, and the 7.1 (as DTSHD) and 5.1 (as DTS) soundtracks, in addition to the subtitles. The program appears to work - while it is running, I see .dtshd, .dts, .sup. -Log.txt, and chapter.txt files that grow while the program is running. When it is complete, though, all I have is the chapter.txt file. I don't see any errors in the progress box.

Any suggestions as to what could be going wrong?

edit: a-ha! now I noticed this in the log: "Aborted at file position 29334939648. <ERROR>"

[palpyhat]

On Iron Man 2 Region B Blu-Ray, it continuously produces a "Listindex out of bounds" messagebox, making it unusable.

[Greif]

Can you provide some logs?

How to detect the subtitle stream "ghost"?

The problem I found with two Blu-ray: "Van Helsing" and "The Mummy"
In the specific case of the movie "The Mummy"with any Player Software (Cyberlink or Arcsoft) automatically selects the forced subtitle stream (stream n.66)

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/4107/screenshot001dy.png (http://img268.imageshack.us/i/screenshot001dy.png/)



With Stream Extractor was not able to detect the stream in question.
I tried to extract all the streams, but have not found that to n.66

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/1124/totalhd.th.png (http://img69.imageshack.us/i/totalhd.png/)



I am running several tests, but I can not find the stream in question, you can solve this problem?

Thanks

[dpstjp]

I wondered if anyone could help me.

I am using HDBRStreamextractor with two Windows 7 machines. It works well, other than a series of error messages which pop up as the streams are being detected in a particular feature.

The error message reads:

"The following exception occurred in the DataGridView:

System.ArgumentException: DataGridViewComboBoxCell value is not valid.

To replace this default dialog please handle the DataError event."

I then have to hit the "OK" button in the error box to get rid of the box. Then another error box saying the same thing pops up.

I have to remove probably 40-50 of these pop up boxes each time I load the streams. Whilst I am doing this I can see in the background that the drop boxes that select TXT for chapters, and MKV/VC1 for Video blank out, then reappear with the right selection. The Audio drop boxes are always blank until I finally get past the error messages and get a chance to select the streams.

When these have finally cleared I am able to proceed. I suspect this is a problem with Windows 7, but any thoughts on how to remove these warnings would be appreciated. Many thanks.

[Greif]

I would need the logs for both feature and stream listing from each3to.

Type the following to get the feature listing:eac3to.exe [drive]

Type the following to get the stream listing:eac3to.exe [drive] [feature number]

Give me the results from both of those and I should be able to debug it for you.

[Greif]

Are there any graphic-artists/designers out there willing to create an icon for this app?

I'm thinking it should be relatively straight forward with a mix of the following themes:
- data/stream extraction
- Transcoding
- HD-DVD & Blu-Ray


I've been "borrowing" the MeGUI icon ever since I started this front-end. It's about time to get my own.

:thanks:

[Greif]

The error message reads:"The following exception occurred in the DataGridView: System.ArgumentException: DataGridViewComboBoxCell value is not valid."

I think I may know what the problem is. Let me double-check the code.
