m2v/ac3 mismatch problem

[dutchfudge]

My question didn't seem to match any other forum, so here it goes

I'm trying to edit a movie (ripped from my DVD using smart Ripper 2.41). I ripped the files in movie mode, all chapters selected, with file splitting set to " each vob file "

Stream processing was enabled, and I chose the option of map to 0xYY for all streams. I then use Vstrip 0.8F to de-mux the M2V and AC3 files.

Here's where I start having trouble. The length of the video and audio files are never the same, with the audio varying in length from 30 seconds to four or more minutes longer than the M2V.

I'm trying to use Cuttermaran 1.57 to do my editing. I really need to get this AC3 mismatch figured out and under control so I can do my thing. Thinking about using some other program to split the ac3 files to the right lengths?

Appreciate any help/links/better methods anyone could give me with this pain in the butt.

try smartripper in streamprocessing mode and demux the wanted streams to single files. USE THE ORIGINAL DVD AS SOURCE.

please give feedback!

stream processing is part of the "movie" mode, however I have not tried ripping the streams to individual vobs yet.

Also, I saw that cuttermaran 1.57 ddoesn't handle 29.97 fps video properly. DLed 1.58 and will try that soon.

what´s the use of single vobs :confused: :confused: :confused:
you need the single streams (you can chose this in the same menu inside smartripper). Having MV2 and AC3 means you can stretch, cut or fix it - within a VOB you can´t work with that stream at all :rolleyes:
