HD audio muxing capabilities of current mkv muxers
OK guys recently we are talking about mkv muxers. I want to make a comparison between them.
Here are the mkv muxer filters used by the mkv muxers: Haali: haali MkvMerge Gui: mkvmerge SolveigMM mkvmuxer: Libav Makemkv: i don't care since it can only make mkvs from original BDs not from ISOs or folders. The source files were always m2ts files in my trials btw. Haali can only mux core ac3 or core dts; workflow: MPC mpeg Source > Haali matroska muxer mkvmerge can mux dtshd+dts core but can not mux thd+ac3; it can only mux thd. Solveig MM can mux dtshd+dts core and thd+ac3 core together; workflow: MPC mpeg source > Solveig muxer > File writer MPC-Gabest mkv muxer: I'm not able to get it worked since it adds decoders between source and destination filters. I think under those circumstances we should only consider these muxers: mkvmerge and Solveig: Splitting mkv merge mkv files with: 1)haali:dtshd-ma doesn't work, thd -no ac3 core- works (haali splitter > ffdshow > d.direct sound) 2)gabest:both dtshd-ma and thd-no ac3 core- works (MPC matroska source(gabest) ffdshow > d.direct sound) 3)solveig: both dtshd-ma and thd-no ac3 core- works (file source(async) > Solveig matroska splitter > ffdshow > d.direct sound Splitting solveig mkv files with: 1)haali:dtshd-ma doesn't work, thd works (haali splitter > ffdshow > d.direct sound) 2)gabest:doesn't work. 3)solveig: both dtshd-ma and thd works (file source(async) > Solveig matroska splitter > ffdshow > d.direct sound related links: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=120648 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=153696 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=154055 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...65#post1409465 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=123537 Last edited by rica; 20th June 2010 at 14:54. |

Why would you want thd+ac3 anyway? ffmpeg can decode TrueHD just fine, no need for a ac3 track. For DTS-HD its another thing, since there are no free decoders for it yet, you kinda need the DTS core track.
Also, do you have some samples muxed with mkvmerge and solveign i could throw at an experimental other splitter? Last edited by nevcairiel; 21st June 2010 at 10:28. |

@rica
Nothing that you've posted in response to my statement has anything to do with MakeMKV: Quote:

As far as I know, that is not possible. Maybe something has changed recently, but when TrueHD is extracted from an M2TS you will get 2 streams, the AC3 and the TrueHD (unlike DTSMA-HD which will have the core and meta data as one file). The AC3 stream is only for backward compatibility and if you need that in your mkv then just include the second audio stream.

Before MPC-HC included LAV Filters it had its own set of filters originally developed by Gabest. These should still be available if you search around ("Standalone Filters"). I think MPC-BE still develops those (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpc...ease%20builds/).
If at one point you put such a file into mkvmerge it will be separated because it's regarded as incompliant to the mkv specs. But I think MakeMKV allows it anyway. If using the non-LAV MPC splitters (from M2TS, MKV by MakeMKV or TrueHD+AC3) + SolveigMM muxers is possible - I do not know. (I don't recommend it anyways.) |
