Looking for a eac3 7.1 encoder

[tebasuna51]

For me works now with wav sources (always 24 bit, 48000 Hz), I'm not need transcode, only encode.

The channels TFL+TFR are ignored (not mixed, ignored). Then for me EAE is useless.

NOTE: To obtain "C:\tmp\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Transcoder.exe" I download Plex and install it in a PC without internet conexion.
I copy the folder "C:\Program Files\Plex" to "C:\tmp\Plex" and I uninstall Plex.
I don't know if the full Plex folder is needed, at least shared ffmeg dll's like avcodec-58.dll, avformat-58.dll, avutil-56.dll, ...

I didn't test yet because I'm not home but looking at audacity waves, it seems the audio volume is very low?

Audacity don't read eac3 files. It can use old ffmpeg libs, but a 7.1 eac3 was readed like 5.1 here.
Your image have only 5 channels.

Decode it to wav/w64 before:

ffmpeg.exe -drc_scale 0 -i "sample.eac3" -c:a pcm_s24le "sample.wav"

[Kuler087]

thanks for the info.

Unfortunately, DDP produced by EAE gives me the same problem as DEE using my LG C2 ARC to Denon AVR. The AVR reports 7.1 audio DD+ but it plays in slow motion.
If I encode 7.1 EC3 1536kbps with an AC3 core(bd compatible) in DEE, then my AVR reports PCM (no idea if it's the 5.1 core or the 7.1 DD+ that plays). PLEX reports 7.1 audio but I have a feeling that only the 5.1 core is played.
EC3 5.1 1536kbps produced by ffmpeg plays properly and AVR reports 5.1 DD+.

Nvidia Shield: everything works and AVR reports DD+ 7.1.
X800m2: DD+ 7.1 with core plays and AVR reports DD+ 7.1. ... DD+ 7.1 without core= same issue as the TV, it plays in slow motion.

I guess I'll stick to ffmpeg DD+ 5.1 1536kbps even though my TV EDID clearly says that it supports DD+ 7.1 :(

[Balling]

ha thank you for the clarification, now it's working.
Now I hope it works on my TV, the DEE EC3 7.1 tracks are not playing correctly.

Why would they not?? You did tick bitstream eas3 in lavfilters, right? Sample of DEE??

No, audacity does support it, just download latest nightly, only then you will be able to use head of master of ffmpeg. Api changes were frozen around 4.1.3, so it should be compatible for a while until API breaking version. Audacity does not do two option as above, so sure decoding to w64 is better.

I'm talking about TV internal player playback with ARC to my AVR.

[Balling]

https://slow.pics/c/AGvZoOf2

It is very low because of horrible drc on TrueHD files (not on your file on google drive, that .thd has no DRC), and they are supposed to be lossless, LOL!! The fact is FFmpeg does not support DRC on TrueHD (only EAC3 and AC3), it just decodes lossless.

Use this: decode with normal ffmpeg:

ffmpeg.exe -i file.thd -c:a pcm_s24le wa1.wav

Then encode with Plex to eac3.

[Balling]

>The channels TFL+TFR are ignored (not mixed, ignored).

Top front left and top front right require EX or Atmos, do they not?

[pcroland]

DEE EC3 7.1 tracks are not playing correctly.
Have you tried both the standard and the bluray profile?

[Kuler087]

yes as said previously (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1974917#post1974917)...

LG C2 internal player:
Standard profile = AVR reports DD+ 7.1 but the audio stutter
Bluray profile = AVR reports PCM and I suspect it's playing only the 5.1 core but it doesnt stutter.

[tebasuna51]

Unfortunately, DDP produced by EAE gives me the same problem as DEE using my LG C2 ARC to Denon AVR. The AVR reports 7.1 audio DD+ but it plays in slow motion.
If I encode 7.1 EC3 1536kbps with an AC3 core(bd compatible) in DEE, then my AVR reports PCM

I have a TV Samsung UE40NU7125 conected by SPDIF to a Denon AVR-X1500H (HDMI without ARC option) than play, and show DD+, all kind of eac3 encodes (EAE, DEE st or bd, Audition, TotalCode and ffmpeg)

When play from PC connected by HDMI to the AVR Denon of course all eac3 is fine, and HD, Atmos, etc.

(no idea if it's the 5.1 core or the 7.1 DD+ that plays). PLEX reports 7.1 audio but I have a feeling that only the 5.1 core is played.
To know if is a real 7.1 or any mix use a channel test (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1963170#post1963170) (recoded to the format desired) instead samples like you use.
Listen the sound only in appropiated speakers.

[Kuler087]

thank you, that test file is very useful.
As suspected, I'm not getting 7.1 audio on the LG C2 --> AVR with EC3 (bluray profile) audio. LFE is not even working (AAC is fine but also 5.1 only).

EDIT: Ok, I just learned something, my AVR was set to Top/surround and the back channels don't work that way. So I changed to back/surround and now the back channel works but still no LFE.
Interestingly, now 7.1 EC3 standard profile works without stuttering. all the channels + LFE work.

Just so you know... With the exception of the AAC file, the 'side' and 'rear' channels of all the other encodes are the wrong way round. As tested using my OPPO UDP-203.

[Kuler087]

, the 'side' and 'rear' channels of all the other encodes are the wrong way round.

indeed... It looks like my DEE settings are incorrect, I did a couple of tests and it keep inverting the Side and Back channels.

Can anyone help ? Do you see whats wrong in my xml file?

It is not a problem of your xml file, a wav file have this channel order:
FL FR FC LF BL BR SL SR
and all eac3 7.1 encoders are wrong and ignore that order (only EAE based in ffmpeg know that), even if the wav file have the correct channelmask, and read it like:
L R C LFE Ls Rs Rls Rrs
(Ls=SL, Rrs=BR)

The input wav files must be remaped always, the deew (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=184175) (DEE Wrapper: automatic channel swapping for 7.1 sources) make the job for you,
or manually (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1967342#post1967342) for Audition (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1963144#post1963144) or TotalCode (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1967227#post1967227)

Use deew, it swaps the channels automatically so DEE will encode it correctly.

thanks but I already wrote my own script that converts UHD-BD to profile 8 DV with EC3 7.1. So @tebasuna51 manual solution works well, I just tried.

Your EAC3 has DRC applied... are we sure there is no any metadata in EAC3?

I imagine this is why most Blu-rays have no EAC3. And of course EAC3 having AC3 inside.

Yesterday Audacity Stable was released, BTW with support of HEAD of ffmpeg.

First of all what is this:
L R C LFE Ls Rs Tfl Tfr

Never saw it on blu-ray, nor did I ever see Bit rate: 1 512 kb/s for eac3.
Duration: 4 h 2 min on Blu-ray was also a shock, but yeah, long movie... There is no EAC3 sound on Blu-ray... There is AC3 core on your sample in my DM. So that at leasy checks out (00001F47 strmtyp: 1 (0x1) - (2 bits)):

Type 1: These frames comprise a dependent substream. The programme shall be decoded in conjunction with the independent substream with which it is associated.

[SeeMoreDigital]

There is no EAC3 sound on Blu-ray... There is AC3 core on your sample in
Are you referring to EAC3 being present on a particular Blu-ray disc or EAC3 (without an AC3 core) being available on the Blu-ray format in general? If it's the latter then you are wrong...

[tebasuna51]

First of all what is this:
L R C LFE Ls Rs Tfl Tfr

The same than (L R C LFE Ls Rs Vhl Vhr) (https://mediaarea.net/AudioChannelLayout) a EAC3 channel map than can be obtained with Audition 2017 (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1963144#post1963144).

And is played in my AVR like it was a Atmos 3D 5.1.2 front (https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1963264#post1963264)

Of course aren't in BD's but if Atmos tracks are recoded to (L R C LFE Ls Rs Vhl Vhr) can save space and sended by SPDIF (my TV SAMSUNG player to AVR-DENON). It is my only interest in eac3 8 channels, for me 2D 5.1 and 7.1 are the same.

The first, but apparently there is such a Blu-ray.

[Balling]

BTW, "C:\tmp\Plex\Plex Media Server\Plex Transcoder.exe" -c:a pcm_s24le -i "C:\Users\Pepe\Core.wav" -eae_root C:\Users\Pepe core.eac3

This command uses -c:a pcm_s24le, but it is not needed here, wav encoding defaults to 24 bit to flac, eac3, truehd (with newer ffmpeg with activated 24 bit TrueHD that is). No, the only time it is needed is if you decode .thd to wav or .eac3 to wav. BTW, I still think drc_scale and normal native ffmpeg should be used to decode.

[tormento]

And is played in my AVR like it was a Atmos 3D 5.1.2 front
Waiting for proper support in deew of Atmos, is there a way to have 5.1.2 instead of 7.1?

I understand that Vhl is Tfl. And Vhr is Tfr. The problem is I never saw something like that on Blu-ray. And I never saw such high bitrate. Again, this is native Blu-ray. This cannot be Audition 2017, because the eac3 sample is JOC, i.e. Atmos.

Well, Netflix somehow encodes Artmos into 5.1 EAC3. Even 16 objects.

[Balling]

BTW. Be careful with leaked Dolby media encoder. It does not produce lossless TrueHD with stereo wav (it is mostly lossless though, I tried Plex decoder of TrueHD and ffmpeg's), did not check what happens with leaked Encoding Engine.

[Balling]

BTW, you can turn off "DRC default on" and plex will not do DRC.

I can encode to DTSMA to C L R Ls Rs LFE Vhl Vhr (see image) and play fine in my AVR 5.1.2 like the Atmos or Audition eac3 encodes.

139.404.590 CoreAT.thd Source TrueHD Atmos
7.1
81.928.230 Core71.thd Source without Atmos metadata
216.505.028 Core71.wav Decoded to 71
98.373.524 Core71.dts Encodec to DTS-MA
71.615.788 Core71.flac Encodec to Flac
5.1.2
216.505.004 Core3D.wav Atmos decoded to 5.1.2 with Dolby Ref Pla
117.133.232 Core3D.dts Encodec to DTS-MA
88.144.518 Core3D.flac Encodec to Flac
24.064.000 Core3D_k24.ec3 Audition recoded to 1024 Kb/s
9.024.000 Core3D_384.ec3 Audition recoded to 384 Kb/s

I still don't know if my AVR can play 5.1.2 when it is send like PCM (from wav, decoded flac/aac/...). Don't work even with last LAV filters 0.76.1.3 and GraphStudioNext.

BTW. Be careful with leaked Dolby media encoder. It does not produce lossless TrueHD with stereo wav (it is mostly lossless though, I tried Plex decoder of TrueHD and ffmpeg's), did not check what happens with leaked Encoding Engine.
DME uses DEE. I think it has 3db attenuation and 90 degree phase shifting enabled just like in the xml templates for DEE, but I never used DME.

IT is possible our decoder and (100%) encoder in ffmpeg is not conformal (opened https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/9958)!! Plex decodes encoded with ffmpeg with the same artefacts as LG C9, very nice!

>I think it has 3db attenuation and 90 degree phase shifting enabled just like in the xml templates for DEE, but I never used DME

No, the bug is just some off-by-ones. Plex decoder and ffmpeg decoder agree (besides some zeroes in the end). Besides 3 db is just for EAC3, no...

Carl accepted the bug. So hope will be fixed! Mono thd is not affected.

So about that EAC3 sound from Justice League. I think it is correct, cause thise strange flipped channels are then decoded by Atmos in totally different places. IMHO. It created a crazy construct.

You don't need nothing to remap for the first one 5.1
I have found another 6.1+5.1 DTS HDMA. How to extract the 5.1 part?

If your are referring to the 5.1 dts core, I use TSmuxer GUI...
