Hi all!

Ehh, finally i find :( another retail DVD that not possible reauthor with IFOEdit , REJig, Muxman.

this is originals DVD's "2046" and "Akira Kuraoswa's Dreams".

After demuxing main movie from this dvd's and trying add another subtitle track using IFOEdit or any of this utils quit with "too many frame drops".
I try mux all original streams to vob and have some error.

As i understand while searching on forum, this error mean big summary bitrate of stream. But both dvd's work well on my computer and standalone player. May be bitrate on some time more than recomended, but it work :(.

My question is how can i mux this streams to vob and not recive this error. May be possible change something manually from ifoedit.ini?
Or hack some bites on IFOedit :(.

Please don't tell me reencode movie for good bitrate, i want have movie untouched.



PS: i find only one way add new sub to dvd using IFOEdit Pro.
But this utils, damn, allow only 8 subs. "Dreams" alerady have 7x2 subs, and for this dvd dvdlabpro not solution :(

Some time ago there was a discussion on dvdauthor mailing list regarding mplex and maximum bitrate. It appears that mplex (don't know which version) doesn't check for maximum bitrate, but only for buffer under-runs, therefore allowing for short peaks of greater than max bitrate. However, it should also be noted that mplex apparently allows for greater than standard audio buffer (16 k as opposed to standard 4 k), therefore in order to be fully compliant the one should check console INFO messages about audio buffering and make sure that max buffered audio doesn't exceed 4k.

Muxman also does not check the stated bitrate (it's usually bogus anyway) but attempts the multiplex. I've seen it multiplex video with peaks as high as 15Mbps succesfully. But the algorithm that it, and many others, use is a single pass that can handle all but the most difficult conditions. Unless the buffer conditions persist over a second or so, Muxman will not quit. Have you tried viewing its output? Most modern players use larger buffers than the spec calls for and read further ahead, so they are more tolerant of underruns.
