Mike what is the best way to force/burn subtitles in? My playback software (sagetv) is having trouble with district 9 and avatar subtitles. Avatar playbacks fine on MPC but district 9 doesn't work. I know you have to re-encode the files in order to burn/force them in, I just want to know the easiest way to do it with your program

Hi Mike,
This is an old request, buti I'm going to need to convert my HD-DVD's to MKV soon. Is it possible to allows E-AC3 to be treated as an HD track so it can be converted to FLAC and muxed automatically by your pog (at present it gets down converted to AC3 regardless of the setting). Note: This works fine if I manually chance the eac3 code extention from ac3 to flac but I then to to manually mux all the streams.
Thanks
Nathan

I've never done it but I think people use Ripbot....I think it takes a long time to run.

I may have build a version that does support E-AC3 as FLAC that I never released...Let me check and get back with you.

Thanks Mike - After 18mths of procrastinating, the HD-DVD stuff has to go! ...and I think MKV with FLAC is as good a combo as it gets at present. I'd be very happy to test the version supporting E-AC3--> FLAC if you have it as the thought of manually muxing all these disc (most of them are E-AC3 (AC3+), some True-HD etc) would not be great!
Thanks again,
Nathan

Hi Mike - did you manage to find the version that supported E-AC3/DD+ to FLAC?
Thanks

I just did some testing with about the only HD-DVD E-AC3 disk I have is King Kong it currently creates a .eac3 file. I'm doing some testing using the command line option then editing the file extention to .flac and will see how if it works. This will still require manual re-muxing with mkvmerge. But will at least tell me it will work if I change the code.

Yes it seems to work fine...I'll look into changing the code....I didn't realize E-AC3 was considered an HD Audio track. It looks like I might want to re-rip some of mine too. I'll make the change and let you do some testing before I make the release public.


Mike

Thanks Mike, sounds great. I'll test a bunch and let you know if there are any oddities!

Mike our of interest when you were decoding the E-AC3 tracks was eac3to using libav/ffmpeg or ????

Thanks

Libav I believe was being used.

I'm having trouble with Chicken Little. I'm receiving the following in the message windows, and I'm not sure how to interpret it. Are there non-flagged, forced subtitles or not? And, if so, where are they?

Code:
No flagged forced subtitles found, looking for other types of forced subtitles...
Likely non flagged forced subtitle found!

BDSup2Sub Command Line arguments : "" ""E:\BDMV\STREAM\" 1) 1: "M:\Movies\Chicken Little (2005)\Chicken Little (2005) - Chapters - Forced Caption.idx" /res:1080


Chicken Little requires -seektoiframes, so I get the above when executing the following command line through the GUI:

Code:

Unfortunately the Haali Muxer cannot handle this source file.  <ERROR>
It doesn't contain enough seek/recovery points.  <ERROR>
The "-seekToIFrames" option may work around that.
However, using this option may result in artifacts when seeking.
Aborted at file position 3936354304.  <ERROR>


TIA for any help!

I'm working on a patch that will fix problems when you get the -seekToIFrames message. For the time being insert the -seekToIFrames switch in the command line then try to run eac3to.

I've only seen one disk that requires this switch so far. It was "Basic Instinct", it sounds like you have found another.

Can you post the eac3to log after you run with the -seektoIframe switch?

Ahh yes...I would say there is no forced subs....There is too many shown in the log for any to be forced. I'm not sure why you got that other message...It could be because it aborted part way through.

Many thanks, Mike.

I've encountered at least one other movie that required -seektoiframes, but at the moment, I don't recall which it was. If I find more, I'll post here.

Just tried your gui, worked like a charm except the BD won't play in the player portion of the gui. I'm running Win 7 64 bit home prenium. What information can I give you to help?
