This post isn't directly related to TSMUXER -- but since the new releases include UHD support, I thought I'd ask here.
I'm looking for a summary of the changes to the BD Basic Specifications that were introduced in version 3.00 that are associated with UHD support. I'm thinking of putting one together (or at least a start for review). But if it already exists somewhere I'd much rather just get a copy of it. I'm introducing an option to convert standard BDs to UHD-BD format using HEVC in BD Rebuilder and have encountered some issues -- I need to find out what I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated. |

Atom Error ?
Hello,
Small problem in the latest version of tsMuxer: When I try to open an MP4 file in TsMuxer nothing happens, and no error message ...? If I open this same file with tsMuxer 2.6.12, I get this error message: "moov atom not found" Interestingly, the file opens very well with MkvToolnix, and if I make a .mkv, it then opens perfectly with tsMuxer, without error message ... Here is the link for the file if that helps: https://uptobox.com/bo46ak1szoog Thx a lot Yannick Edit: Maybe related to that?

Ok great, thank you for these explanations, I did not have the reflex to change the extension of the file ... Nevertheless, there would be the possibility of correcting this problem in Tsmuxer when opening a file with incorrect extension? Understand that the user is warned ... Thx, bye. Yannick PS: Small suggestion: let TsMuxer open the file with incorrect extensions (as in MkvToolnix ...), but with a pre "warning box" like: Incorrect file extension, do you want to continue? Yes or no" Last edited by yannick92; 30th March 2021 at 11:17. |

Sony and Pioneer would refuse to "skip to the end", the LGs would do it, even if the mark is missing. Therefore I always add a dummy chapter mark 1 second before the end time.

As for the issue of the missing end chapter mark, IMHO, it is an authoring error. Players are only expected to go to existing chapter marks. Why studios author discs without a chapter mark 1-2 secs from the end is beyond me. |

Unexpected problem demuxing BlueRay 3D
Hi! A few years ago I used your tool (with BD3D2MK3D) to process a number of different BlueRay 3D movies and it worked perfectly every time.
I recently bought a 3D capable projector which has rekindled my interest in 3D and so have bought a pile of good movies on 3D BlueRay to convert. I convert to side by side HD so that I can store on my iTunes server and use with my gen 3 Apple TV. Last week I downloaded the latest version of BD3D2MK3D which carries in it toolset an up-to-date version of tsMuxeR and tried to process two movies. Both failed for the same reason. tsMuxeR crashed. I have since tried using both the previous versions of BD3D2MK3D and tsMuxeR crashes there too. I am using the same BlueRay player, the same decryption driver (which is working perfectly). The only differences in the machine since I last used your tool are the faster processor (same generation) and a higher spec. ASUS motherboard. Screenshots of the error messages are here: https://files.videohelp.com/u/299032...D9C66B6A7.jpeg https://files.videohelp.com/u/299032...C3102DC0A.jpeg Regards and many thanks, Richard |

I suppose that "side by side HD" means Full-SBS. Anyway, it's not the problem. tsMuxeR crashes when it demuxes the BD files, and it should not. Perhaps it's a problem with the decrypter process (before the demux), or something strange with the BD.

Thank you for the reply. Yes, I do absolutely understand that. In fact I spent some time testing the results side by side (pardon the pun) and concluded that on my display equipment I could not tell the difference.
Because you are carrying stereoscopic information, although you numerically cut the horizontal resolution in half, you do not cut the “information” in half. The brain also does a very good job of filling in what it expects to see. My conclusion was that the result was shockingly good and a negligible trade off for the convenience of storing the movie on a media server and playing through standard HD devices. That is a little off topic however since the post was intended to report a defect in tsMuxeR that did not used to exist. Kind regards and many thanks, Richard |

Since it's absurd to assume all discs have an IDR frame at that TC, I assume the player goes to the next available frame after that TC. Never had any issue in no player I tested, and I have tested lots of them. Quote:
One must see the credits, like the advertisments and companies' logos at the beginning are sometimes/mosttimes unskippable (PUOs). While the caterer receives far less money than Robert de Niro, this is the only satisfaction he might have. So the dressmakers, assistants, musicians etc. The cleverer version is to continue the movie after the first batch of credits. Or alternatively to put gags and other funny scenes.

Thank you for the reply. Without wishing to be baited into a discussion of semantics, I feel I should clarify my intended meaning!
The discarded horizontal pixels are data. Half of the data will indeed be discarded. The data carry information and as I understand it, the basis of data compression is that the relationship between data and the information conveyed by that data is not necessarily 1:1. The entropy of a message per bit multiplied by the length of that message is a measure of how much total information the message contains. My point is that from my own observations and experiments, the result of a half-horizontal stereoscopic SBS arrangement is subjectively superior to that of a half horizontal 2D movie. My hypothesis is that the same amount of data (a single HD frame) contains more “information” when it carries stereoscopic elements as well. That is all I was trying to say. R. |

What would be nice is if there was a spec for 4K 3D video. Then the loss of half the pixels wouldn't be as bad for a SBS 3D video, as that would have the resolution of a normal 1080p 3D video. Because of the resolution loss for SBS, or OU, 3D video, I'll only ever deal with 3D on Blu-ray in order to get the full 1080p resolution. But, that is me. YMMV. |

We’re still at crossed purposes here. I clearly have not explained myself well.
A full HD BlueRay 3D movie is encoded as a compressed left eye image with a differences file for the right eye. The compression is “lossy” but set to a high subjective quality. When unpacked this gives two full HD frames. The stereoscopic information I refer to is implicit within the pair of images by virtue of their differences from one another. This element of the “information” is not present in a 2D movie, but is decodable by the human brain. Loss of 50% of the pixel data does not necessarily equate to a change in information entropy of 50%. The notion that cutting out 50% of the horizontal pixels translates simply into a 50% change in information entropy is simply not a correct assumption. Yes, the amount of “data” has halved, but the “information” reconstructible may not have done. I absolutely agree that using the original BlueRay stereoscopic images at 2 x HD will be better. Of course it will - just as using lossless compression instead of lossy compression would make it better. But in a similar way as the result of a BlueRay 3D playback is, to my eye, impossible to distinguish from a losslessly compressed movie, so the 1/2 horizontal SBS is close enough in subjective quality to my eye as to be almost impossible to identify in a comparison on my equipment. It is about trading off the small difference for the convenience. Uncompressed stereoscopic movies would be 311MB/s at 24-bit colour. A 3D BlueRay might be encoded in 35Gb of data which would amount to 4.9MB/s. The two would be very hard to tell apart subjectively yet there is 63.5 times less “data” in the BlueRay. That is what I mean by information, entropy and data being not equivalent. |
