The dts play fine when I send it by spdif to my 5.1 receiver, maybe with a 6.1 or 7.1 we can listen some clicks in back speakers, but downmixed to 5.1 I can't listen anything strange.

Maybe the original DTS was wrong encoded or the original CD was dirty when ripped to wav, I don't think than the DTSParser was the culprit.
Try to clean the CD and rerip the track.

Update: I've cleaned the disc. And used several CD ripping applications, including EAC. But it would seem that the actual data for that particular track is corrupt in some way.

As a side note. Here's an interesting thing. If you encode the dts.wav file to flac. And then the flac file back to wav. The dts stream is still completely intact...


Cheers

I wanted to get an 11:08.192 clip from a 1:52:59.136 AC3 from the 1:39:36.770 mark and after much trial and error I stumbled upon the combination of "-edit=1:50:44.939,-5976770ms" and "-5976770ms" to do so. With "-edit=1:50:44.939,-5976770ms" alone, the AC3 would decode up to 1:50:44.939. With "-5976770ms" alone, it would do so from 1:39:36.770 to the end, 1:52:59.136. Now is there a particular reason why trimming a track requires two options, in different formats no less?
Code:
eac3to %%a.ac3 %%~na.wav -edit=1:50:44.939,-5976770ms -5976770ms -full -no2ndpass
Why isn't such a pedestrian task simple and intuitive? Can a better, more uniform option for this be implemented, preferably in milliseconds, or better yet, samples? Something like:
Code:
-ms-in=5976770 -ms-out=6644939
or
Quote:
-sample-in=286884998 -sample-out=318957039

What was the bit rate of the FLAC?

Madshi, could you please update dcadec in eac3to? The XXL not lossless warning seems to have been removed and as of November 27th it has reached version 0.1

The warning going away is just cosmetic though, so don't worry too much about it.

Furthermore you can just compile a new libdcadec.dll yourself and use it with eac3to. I'm not using any patches, so any newer version than the one I'm using should work fine.

As we talk about DTS what about DTS:X support, at least a detection

does it matter whether I compile and use the x64 or win32 one?

Eac3to is a 32-bit application so it can only call x86 libraries.

compared to a HDD, would running eac3to with 2 SSDs in raid mode 0 speed up remuxing blu-rays quite a lot? (reading and writing from the disk)

I now this is a bit of topic but I am trying to build the libdcadec.dll with visual studio 2015.
I succeeded in building the libdcadec.dll but the .dll is painfully slow in decoding my dts steams.
The libdcadec.dll that came with eac3to took about 2 minutes to decode the dts.
With my own build it took about 9 minutes to decode the same dts.
Are there any options in visual studio to set that influence the performance of the created libdcadec.dll?

Did you build a debug or a release DLL?

In that case - no idea why it's so much slower. Try building it with GCC.

madshi, do you have any intention of including speedup/slowdown functionality for chapters? As far as I can see there are no chapter programs that let you speedup via CLI, so speeding up multiple files is a big hassle... since it is just a simple calculation, it should not be that hard to implement (I guess)... though I know chapter editing is not really eac3to's purpose, so I get it if you don't implement it...

on another matter, I'm gonna dig up a question I asked almost 2 years ago:
Are you going to replace libaften with libav for ac3 encoding in the foreseeable future? last time I asked, you said you haven't gotten around to it... since libav is the best choice for ac3 encoding (apart from the official dolby pro encoder, which I guess can't be implemented in eac3to :P) it would be nice to have it directly in eac3to and not have to pipe it to ffmpeg every time...

By the moment you can try the GUI UsEac3to:

- Load the .txt (Chapters OGM) or .xml chapters in UsEac3to.
Also text subs .srt, .ssa or .ass are supported.

- Ignore the eac3to message:
"The format of the source file could not be detected. <ERROR>"

- Click in the 'Auxiliary tools' -> 'SRT/.../TXT'

- Select your desired conversion and 'Convert'

this seems to work for single files only... There are already a few programs out there that do that, I need it to convert multiple files at once, which is only possible if the either the GUI is able to read and convert multiple source files, or if there is a CLI, where I can use a for loop in cmd to process all files in one go...

I can add a option to process all files with the same extension in a folder.
Wait to a new version in UsEac3to thread.

EDIT: done
