Or do not install MeGUI in %ProgramFiles% but in a directory not monitored by the UAC. As we keep telling people for decades...

If you copy a folder into %ProgramFiles% with File Explorer on Win 10 then it's not write protected I believe.

I've been ripping DVDs with MakeMKV and encoding them with MeGui. I just noticed looking at the logs that when I convert the ac3 tracks from the DVD to FLAC using the HDStreamExtractor '-keepDialnorm' is always added to the command line and I can't find an option to turn it off. Is this intentional or a bug?

@nurbs
For recode AC3 tracks to FLAC?

The -keepDialnorm parameter is only used for extraction, and do nothing when decode to convert to another format.

BTW the -keepDialnorm is only recommended to extract E-AC3 7.1, see post https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...50#post1851550 and next.
Added to MeGUI 2881 like is show in https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...32#post1852532

But you are right, when I use HDStreamExtractor to convert AC3 to FLAC the command line is:

"...\eac3to.exe" "...\Canoa.VOB" 2:"...\Canoa_T2_Audio - Spanish.flac" -keepDialnorm -progressnumbers

Like I say before eac3to ignore -keepDialnorm when decode, is only used when extract.
Of course is a bug but without effect.

Hi tebasuna51, thanks for answering.

I forgot to mention that I always normalize the tracks for DVDs and BDs and for DVDs I also downmix.

Does this change the result in the end?

When I use
Code:
eac3to.exe "E:\Test\e01.mkv" 2:"E:\Test\e01_eng.flac" -downStereo -normalize
I get
Code:
a02 Extracting audio track number 2...
a02 Removing AC3 dialog normalization...
a02 Decoding with libav/ffmpeg...
a02 Downmixing multi channel audio to stereo...
a02 Writing WAV...
a02 Creating file "E:\Test\e01_eng.flac.pass1.wav"...
a02 Caution: The WAV file is bigger than 2GB.
a02 Some WAV readers might not be able to handle this file correctly.
a02 Starting 2nd pass...
a02 Reading WAV...
a02 Reducing depth from 64 to 24 bits...
a02 Encoding FLAC with libFlac...
a02 Applying 1.9dB gain...
a02 Creating file "E:\Test\e01_eng.flac"...
a02 The original audio track has a constant bit depth of 64 bits.
a02 The processed audio track has a constant bit depth of 24 bits.
With -keepDialnorm the line
Code:
a02 Removing AC3 dialog normalization...
is missing.

When a AC3 decoder is used to play the audio is mandatory respect the DialNorm info stored in AC3 headers, but like eac3to is used always to recode, not play, never use the DialNorm when decode.

When eac3to is used to only extract the track by default remove the DialNorm info (put -31 dB to avoid change the volume). Now -keepDialnorm is used to extract the track without change the DialNorm info in AC3 headers. Then only extracting the track the -keepDialnorm parameter is used.

If you want store only stereo audio (to be played in a device without 5.1 support) is correct the -downStereo -normalize parameters.
But I can't understand recode to FLAC, for me the default quality (q=0.5) of NeroAacEnc is enough for lossy audio (changed by -downStereo -normalize).

Thank you for explaining.

I encode the FLAC files to AAC in the end. It would probably be more efficient to just extract the tracks with eac3to and then downmix and encode them directly with the audio encoder in MeGui, but back when HD-DVDs and BDs started coming out eac3to was the only tool I had that could decode some of the tracks and also could do the processing I needed. That's how I ended up with that workflow.

After updating MeGUI 64-bit to the latest AviSynth+ portable from the development update server, MeGUI can no longer load AviSynth+ portable, and gives this error when starting:
Code:
---[Error] AviSynth portable
----[Information] File Version: 3.5
----[Information] File Date: 02-03-2020
----[Information] File Name: AviSynth+ 3.5 (r3043, master, x86_64)
----[Information] File Path: xxxxxxxxx\megui64\avisynth.dll
----[Error] AviSynth Status: inactive - portable AviSynth build cannot be used. The loaded DLL is: 
---[Error] AviSynth: not found
Any ideas what is wrong?

I managed to get it working again by reverting AviSynth portable to the version on the stable update server, but I would like to use the newer version, if possible.

@fluffy01, I can't reproduce your problem, it is ok for me:

Check if you have the full file:

...\megui64\avisynth.dll 4.395.520 bytes

Or put the full log (OS, redistributables,...)

I solved it! Thanks to your comment about what redistributables I had, I started digging, and after I installed the one called "2015-2019" which replaced the 2017 one I had installed, then it started working

Same for me but on MeGUI x86 32 bit with windows 10 pro 64 bit.
Same error.
And again solved
1 - installing AviSynth+ 3.5.0 with redistributables included, from this site, the file of about 27 mb. https://www.videohelp.com/software/AviSynth-Plus
After installing and rebooting the PC, everything is back to work and megui no longer reports the error.
The problem was that avisynth+ 3.5.0 portable needs the following redistributables :
----[Information] Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 x64: 14.21.27702
----[Information] Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 x86: 14.21.27702
to be updated from version 14.21.27702 to version 14.24.28127.

or
2 - alternatively it can be installed both the x86 and x64 versions of the latest Visual C++ 2015, 2017 and 2019 redistributables directly from the microsoft website, at this link https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...al-c-downloads ; should be the 2 files called
x86: vc_redist.x86.exe
x64: vc_redist.x64.exe
reboot the PC and try again;
I have tested method 1; haven't personally tested the 2nd link/method but it should still work.

Is there anyway to do a batch encode that has forced subtitles to automatically mux all of the English subtitles and leave the forced track to default and forced?

This build is not working for me in MeGUI:

Code:
---[Error] [01.04.2020 20:36:43] x265 [error]: internalBitDepth must match compiled bit depth
---[Error] [01.04.2020 20:36:43] x265 [error]: x265_encoder_open() failed for Enc, 
---[Error] [01.04.2020 20:36:43] x265 [error]: Failure generating stream headers 0
Revert back to 3.3+12 filler56789 build -> encoding works fine

Yeah, MediaFire hates files named "Xvid"-something, automatically assumes illegal moviez in it.
