BeSweet 1.3RC: Add silence option??

[frank]

Hi, DSPGuru,
I'm too stupid, can't find the parameter for adding silence.
In ota() ???

Please help.
Example:
Adding 8s silence to the end of resulting 5.1 aif (or wav, mp2)
Important, because most dvd players cut the tracks.

Regards

if i am not entirely mistaken, the parameter you are looking for is called DELAY.

-ota( -d X )

replace X with a positive or negative value of milliseconds.

-ota( -d 8000 ) would hence result in the addition of 8sec silence at the beginnign of the aif file.

i am not an expert, though. hence, just try it out. As far as i have understood the matter. true delay, i.e. a positive or negative shift of the audio stream along the time axis without the addition or cropping of data cannot be realized in all media streams. however i don't know which are capable of true delay and which are not. again, i might be entirely wrong.

good luck

No, the ota( -d nn ) parameter shifts the track from the beginning.
Important for muxing miniDVD tracks to achieve synchronous audio, because there are no sufficient muxers with this feature.

o.k. forget it, just didn't read the post thorughly. he wants too add silence at the end. => Delay does not help.

looks like i forgot to update ota.txt :o.
the new switch is -e. (just like -d ;)).
