HD-DVD / EVO muxer (H264+AC3) - Page 3

Is anybody else who has already tested?

Edit: Sorry i can't test it right now since my disks are under maintenance.

m1482 · 27th September 2008, 21:13

It would be nice to have a simple GUI ...

ReferenceDivx · 27th September 2008, 21:18

Ok, I'll add it to my todo list. However, I have to go swimming and lift weights right now ltr. I added a basic workflow plan to my first post which i use every day.

I can't do it either. I am afraid of loosing all my data...

What's with all that hostility?

For all of you with concerns about trojans etc: I test all alpha software inside a VirtualBox installation disconnected from the internet. Talk about peace of mind...

@ ReferenceDivx

Thanks for this build, but unfortunately it crashes in XP32 (VBOX) and Vista64 for me. I can see the statur bar, though - it just does not get any further than 0,13-0,33% before Windows informs me of its lamentable fate ;-)

And might I add that muxing several .ac3 and .sup files is MUCH more important than a GUI to me. Just my 2 cents for your roadmap...

As much as I disagree with Atak's tone, I have to agree with his point: Up until now I have not been able to sucessfully mux a HD DVD using hddvdmux.exe :-/ But it keeps looking more promising with each and every release.

This guy pisses me off big time! Few months ago we had a guy with new super codec called fairchild. I knew from the beginig that everything he was saying was a lie. Check this this thread http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...ight=fairchild
This guy plays with you all in the same way.

Hahahaha!!!! What did you expect???? Now he will tell you that this program only works with .NET 4.0 or Windows 7 or even octa-core

If I was a mod I would ban him after first page.

Ajax_Undone · 28th September 2008, 07:08

Wow sounds like Atak had his coffie fallowed by a booko energy drink...

Ok the Program sucks (and I mean that in a constructively critical way)... I believe that the fate of followers are base off of their own choices...

1. Atak You might be right!!!

2. This isn't a place to beat people up over there tried and failed attempts at helping...

3. I think that if every body just sit back and smoke some. They will see light at the end of this dark tunnel... Wait I see I see ummm hmmm uhh????? Rainbows? WOW

ReferenceDivx · 28th September 2008, 09:45

I just added the source code for the latest version to my website. Hopefully you will see that i have put a lot of time into it. Its working for me, maybe you can see why its not working for you. Please excuse the tangental code, orphaned functions, and random sections that were never implemented. I had hoped to clean up the code a little more before i released it, but that is the way of life.

I would say, thanks for the great work, I still use my Toshiba XA2 a lot.

Support for DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, would be great!

Also, command line is fine for me, and it would be nice to have a Linux version, I'm using Ubuntu.

Pitou!

KenD00 · 29th September 2008, 23:57

I didn't like the tone of Atak_Snajpera but after looking at the source code i can't help but support him... although i don't think its a trojan horse

.

Well, what do we have here? A Visual Studio 2008 Project, created by the project wizard with the wonderful name test

. It includes the standard MFC crap and the standard ReadMe.txt. Furthermore, there are some files taken from open source projects and... uhhh... other files.

I don't know, but i haven't seem something like that before. I think someone had really much spare time to write down all those variables with all those fancy names and extracting binary data from ifo / movie / audio files and experimenting around what all those bytes mean. Some parts of the code look like they come straight from a disassembler

. Honestly, i'm not sure if the author knows much about that what he's doing there, sorry.

Ben, is this a work for school that you and your friends are doing? You shouldn't have released the source, because then the dream of many people, having a great, free hd-dvd muxer, would last a little longer...

So now you understand why I was so aggressive. I never attack honest people only scumbags like ReferenceDivx.

Luckly He is too stupid for that

ReferenceDivx · 30th September 2008, 02:28

Maybe you guys could give me some constructive ideas on moving forward with this project. I want to try to weed out all the un-necessary code first of all. Should i try to compile it differently? Any ideas why it works for me, but you can't get it to work?

thanks

Ajax_Undone · 30th September 2008, 06:14

Well I have to say it is a mess as far as source code is concerned... But at leased we can physically see what hes has done... And like he said maybe some constructive criticism might help... (ie point out flaws and help correct them...)

ReferenceDivx · 30th September 2008, 11:26

I tried to clean up as much as possible the superfluous code that is not needed. I only have code from one open source project now which is h264info. I added a link to the original h264_alpha0021_source file to my website. Version 0.22 includes these changes.

Thanks

ReferenceDivx · 30th September 2008, 11:44

Ok, I think i figured out what is occuring. My program seems to only like being run on computers that have visual studio 2008 installed on them. It seems to work fine on two of my computers a xp and vista machine that both have vs 2008 installed on them. However i tried it on a friends computer that didnt have vs 2008 installed and it crashed without even starting. Does any of this make sense? How would i go about finding the bugs if it only works on computers with vs 2008 installed?

ReferenceDivx · 2nd October 2008, 11:04

Just released version 0.30. It should fix several issues people were having.
http://www.hddvdstrikesback.com/code/vs2008-src030.zip

Please use the working sample video and audio files from my page to eliminate possible errors.
http://www.hddvdstrikesback.com/source.zip (has not changed)

It is now working on that machine that it was crashing on. Thus it has worked on every machine i have tested it on. 2 vista and one xp.

Change log for 0.30
-------------------
1. No longer looking for files that don't exist on most machines
2. Changed memory allocation routines
3. Changed how command line input works, it should look somthing like this now: hddvdmux.exe c:\test.264 c:\test.ac3 c:\outputdir 4172724
4. Automatically determines if the ac3 file is legit and what bitrate it contains thus this is no longer needed in the command line

The bug that was causing it to crash in linux probably hasn't been fixed yet, but you never know.

Atak_Snajpera · 2nd October 2008, 20:55

I like the title "Maybe working open-source hd-dvd authoring tool vers 0.30" You have sense of humour ...

Chill out, Atak. If you don't like the tool, don't read the thread. And re-read the forum rules, especially rule 4.

Pitou · 7th October 2008, 12:35

ReferenceDivx,

Just to report...

I just tried version 0.30 on a full length 2 hours movie with a 640kbps AC3 audio track and it works fine in my Toshiba XA2.

Again, support for TrueHD and DTS-HD along with a linux command equivalent would be perfect!

Thanks.

Pitou!

I discovered a bug that is causing some avc streams to become corrupted. You can see during playback if the colors blend between frames when being played back.

Evobdemuxer, evodemux, and tsmuxer seem to be demuxing fine. I contacted the author of eac3to to colaborate on fixing some demuxing issues.

Eac3to has two non critical issues still. First, Eac3to is complaining of authoring faults which is being caused by the pes field being short by one byte on very rare occasions. Second, the last (E-)AC3 frame is incomplete and thus gets skipped.

I hope to fix all these issues in the next release.

Thanks for the feedback. I hope you are enjoying the software and watching hd content on your hd-dvd player.
