View Full Version : OGM Stream containing only DivX Video and AC3 sound?

Is it possible to create an Ogg Media Stream that contains DivX video and AC3 sound? I need to use Ogg since the Ogg Splitter seems to be able to handle files larger than 2 GB. I have been playing around with Graphedit and managed to produce a OGM stream. The video was 1200 MB and the sound 200 MB and I expected to get a 1400 MB file since OGM overhead is apparently smaller than AVIs overhead. I was quite surprised to see that the file was almost 2000 MB in the end! Looks like I have done something wrong. I used to mux video and sound using Nandub and if necessary you could delay the sound a few ms - is this possible with Graphedit too?

I think you didn't deleted the ac3 decoder in your graph and the ogm file now contains a divx and a wav stream.
Although i haven't tried to put an ac3 stream into an ogg i have tried mp3,wma,divx,xvid and divx3.11 and everything worked fine, i don't think ac3 is a special case.

My problem seems to be that as soon as I connect the AC3 output in GraphEdit to the Ogg Multiplexer Stream 1 input I automaticaly get a "AC3 Parser Filter" which is connected to "CyberLink Audio Decoder" between. I get these two additional filters when "Connect Intelligent" is enabled in GraphEdit. If I disable it and try to connect AC3 Out with Ogg Mulitplexer Input I get an error message saying filters cannot agree on a connection. Do I have to install another AC3 filter? Which one and where can I get it?

Cheers,

Martin

It seems that the ac3 filters are locked. Try nandub to multiplex first to an avi and then mux into an ogm file with GraphEdit.

Cheers mate!
This worked... but it involves the AVI Splitter that can't handle AVIs > 2 GB again... I will have to try if I can create an OGM files which is larger than 2 GB and still play fine using this method...
