BeSweet v1.4b9 problem with 2/0 streams

[Imperator]

I will when done encoding the file.
But I think there is another problem with BeSweet. I tried 1.4b9 and after that 1.3.
The result from 1.4b9 cannot be right. I put 0.400 quality and get 94kB reported , though this should be around 112. Besides that i only get sound on the left channel.
Using 1.3 everything seems fine.
I will post the log in a minute (using 1.4b9)

[DSPguru]

there's a lot of changes inside BeSweet from v1.4b8 to v1.4b9...
you might wanna post a logfile of b10

[Imperator]

As I said: the right channel seems dead. Here is the log:

hmmm, i used the same commandline as you and it worked fine here.
have you tried looking at the result in any visual audio editor ?

btw, this could also be a playbacking problem...


i'll now check with a 2/0 ac3.

[Imperator]

same here.

only with surround2 though, surround works with it. Aren't both supposed to work?

[DSPguru]

there's no meaning for dpl2 in 2/0 streams. that's where the bug comes from.
anyway, should be fixed in b11. check it out !

[Imperator]

alright seems to work...i hope this was my last post :) ...
thanks for all the help

[DSPguru]

thanks for important help on eliminating bugs.


Cheers :D,

Please give me a hint. If i choose one quality, will the resulting sound quality be the same for "PostGain" and regular "Gain"?
If so, why would i want to use Gain instead?

pay attention to all differences :
