If the GOP is not closed, and you discard the ugly looking B-frames before re-encoding, then you should compensate the audio delay for the discarded frames. Ron

Two very different algorithms. But I guess the end result will be roughly identical? |

i guess that blu-ray playlist support could be hard to establish, since there can be various longer playlists, which do not necessarily have to be the main movie. might be hard to let a prog find out then which the correct playlist for the main movie is.

basically trial and error :P
open the pls files and have a look at the filenames displayed there. in case of only 1 and 2 big files its quite easily mostly. but take close encounters with its 3 different versions, i wouldnt know how a program should be able to differentiate which of those 3 versions the user actually means |

If you want the eac3to version in the MKV header, you can simply rename "eac3to.exe" to "eac3to v2.41.exe". The Haali Matroska Muxer will then most probably write the version number into the MKV file for you... Please note that renaming eac3to.exe results in that Nero's Audio Decoders stops working, though... Quote:

There has to be a way for hardware players to know what combination of files leads to which showing of the film. It might even be possible to play around with an authoring tool that supports the seamless stuff to figure out what file controls this. Perhaps someone can help with this, it's a shame the format seems so poorly documented.

When I use the -check option it appears to start demuxing all the tracks. Is this supposed to happen? I'm not sure where the files want to go as they don't appear in the eac3to folder nor the source folder. Are they just temp files or is it only read into memory and discarded as it checks out okay? Here's a log from a -check. Code:
eac3to v2.41 command line: eac3to "H:\HD\33895594_PREDATOR\BDMV\STREAM\00028.m2ts" -check ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ M2TS, 1 video track, 4 audio tracks, 1:46:35 1: MPEG2, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9) 2: DTS Master Audio, English, 5.1 channels, 24 bits, 48khz 3: AC3, English, 3/1 channels, 448kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB 4: AC3, Spanish, 2.0 channels, 224kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB 5: AC3, French, 2.0 channels, 224kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB Extracting primary video track... Extracting audio track number 2... Extracting audio track number 3... Extracting audio track number 4... Extracting audio track number 5... eac3to processing took 7 minutes, 23 seconds. Done. |

Unable to use Nero Multi Channel Plugin with eac3to
Hi Everyone,
I'm using eac3to for converting eac3 to ac3. I now have the Nero 7 installed with the Multichannel Plug in. I start converting the e-ac3 file with eac3to; I immediatley see the below in command prompt/DOS with "-" populating accross the DOS screen underneath "Disabling DRC..."; this lasts for about 60 seconds, then stops and no output file. What am I missing? eac3to v2.39 command line: "D:\Downloads\HD RIP utinlities\EAC3toGUI\eac3to.exe" "G:\HDDVD\HD DVD\moviename_D1_NA\Demuxed\FEATURE_1_MERGED.DDp.stream.00.ddp" "G:\HDDVD\HD DVD\moviename_D1_NA\Demuxed\FEATURE_1_MERGED.DDp.stream.00.ac3"-640 -nero E-AC3, 5.1 channels, 2:23:27, 1536kbit/s, 48khz, dialnorm: -27dB Removing dialog normalization... Decoding with DirectShow (Nero Audio Decoder 2)... Disabling DRC for Nero (E-)AC3 decoding... |

You need the HD DVD/Blu-Ray plugin and not the Multichannel plugin. Please try "eac3to -test" to see whether the Nero decoder is working correctly. Of course you can always use "-libav" to force E-AC3 decoding with the libav decoder. |

The pitch is changed by the "-speedup" function. So the chipmunk effect gets removed. However, if the original PAL track was created by using pitch correction, using "-speedup" will actually make the pitch too low. In that case you need to use a software which can slowdown audio while doing pitch correction. TimeFactory would be a good choice for that. But at least here in Germany 99.9% of all movies have the chipmunk effect. So eac3to's "-speedup" option is the right choice for those. The situation may be different in other countries, though.

Since I'm living in Germany too, you mean that I can use eac3to on a 25FPS Pal-DVD AC3 audiotrack with the "-speedup" option to get a nice 25FPS AC3 audiotrack but with the "original" pitch like on 24p BD or HD DVD? That would be great!
