.

I try to do the same for DTS/DTS-HD a bit later (a bit more complex with "in the core stream" or "after the core stream" extensions, and the TrueHD was a paid work, not tthe DTS-HD stuff, so DTS-HD is in lower priority).

could you plz implement duration of audio/video files like

hh:mm:ss ?

my point is, seconds are missing for files > 1h.

Seconds are not useful for a lot of people when duration is > 1 hours.

Feature request is already done, with "debug" --> "Advanced Mode" (or -f for CLI):
Code:
Duration                         : 6636960
Duration                         : 1h 50mn
Duration                         : 1h 50mn 36s 960ms
Duration                         : 1h 50mn
Duration                         : 01:50:36.960
You can create your custom template, and use theses fields names (from "Help" --> "Known parameters":
Code:
Duration                  : Play time of the stream in ms
Duration/String           : Play time in format : XXx YYy only, YYy omited if zero
Duration/String1          : Play time in format : HHh MMmn SSs MMMms, XX omited if zero
Duration/String2          : Play time in format : XXx YYy only, YYy omited if zero
Duration/String3          : Play time in format : HH:MM:SS.MMM
Note: maybe a "HHh MMmn SSs" additional field is interessant?

But we have already discussed about that

same here. why would it be useful to hide such a information? would it bloat the gui? I guess not... If you mux videofiles with audio tracks of other files it is very useful to get the exact duration.

anyway, thx for the hint with the debugging mode

Zenitram,

Would it be possible to identify MPEG-4 ASP encodes generated with multiple B-VOPs separately from those encoded with just 1B-VOP?


Cheers

This depends a lot from the "profile" of users, on Doom9 people want exact value, but on some other forum (more newbee), they want "logic" value ie only a rounded value.

This is the reason I
add a custom text. LAter, whan I have time, I plan to customize the "Easy" view with you own template too, so everybody would be able to have its perfect "Easy" view :-D.

If I understand well, instead of:
BVOP = No
BVOP = Yes.

You would like to have:
BVOP = No
BVOP = 1 frame
BVOP = 2 frames
...

?

Yes please.

If it possible for you to identify the actual quantity of consecutive b-frames, that would be very useful for bug testing streams for use in hardware players

One of my goals is to be able to know before downloading a file if the file is compatible or not with it, so I am intersted in implementing this if there is limitations in players.

But I don't currently parse the whole file (very long), only the 30 first frames, if there is 1 bframe only between I/P frames, can I say there is 99% chance to have only 1 bframe between I/P frames for the whole file?

Ah come on, you don't need any special technical skills to be able to read hours minutes and seconds. Newbies or not, if they are able to fiddle with video stuff then they are able to read time.
Does it really disturb them ? I doubt it. However it would be a really helpfull information without the need to switch between tabs each time we open a file.

That would be nice indeed

Say 60 frames ? After all that's only one second of a video at ~60 FPS.

This is not the problem: some other users think this is not useful, and that this is too stupid to have seconds for a 2 hour film. Look at DVDs: this is always writen, for example, "115 minutes", "normal" users don't care of seconds in this case.
And why should I accept seconds and not milliseconds too? Some other users have asked for the precise duration in milliseconds, they say that seconds are not enough (and some others, in seconds + frames, not yet implemented but planned, because milliseconds are not interessant). Every user says that his point of view is the more logic point of view and that all other users are stupid... ;-).

Again, I know I have multiple kinds of users, multiple "profile sets" are planned. And if you are in hurry, you can compile your own version of the DLL, this is only one line of code to change, this is open source .

I can go up to 60 fps, yes. I will do some tests in order to see if this has no big impact on performances.

You shouldn't. Do milliseconds too.

0.26 beta still show "Resolution" field for AAC inside MP4 videos or M4A podcasts, it is hiddenly only when viewing raw .aac files (adts)

no such problem with mp3 and mp3 inside avi
no such problem with ac3 and ac3 inside mkv
