E-AC3 again!?

[Selur]

Yes, but shouldn't i have fixed that by re-encode the track to 16-bit / 48.000 khz then ?

Yes, but the ffmpeg call does not convert to 16bit.

Also, why does it Sound so DULL and quiet when player decodes it to PCM as output (powerdvd) ?

No, or wrong dynamic range compression.

Ps.: a small sample of the source would help to reproduce and fix the issue

True not ffmpeg, but i thought eac3to would handle this.. by using the command line down16... ofcurse .. wishfull thinking

have added "audio track (dts)" sample only..↓

I might have a fix for your problem, but I need a sample or a debug output which also contains the analysis from the source.
I need a sample of what you feed Hybrid, not a raw extract,...

Errm.. i lost you there 

The audio track i sended you is from a mkv media file with some subs nothing more ..!?

[Selur]

patch does work with your sample file.
No clue if it will work with the real thing.

exactly, it's not the source, it's a stream you somehow extracted from the source,...

-> will send you a link to a dev verison in ~15min, if that does not fix the problem, I will need a sample of the mkv you feed Hybrid, not some extracted part of a stream.

huh? you mean you managed to → bitstream that sample ... ?

explain?

[Selur]

I can convert that sample to flac 16bit, 24bit and 32bit using my current dev version.

 ah i get it ... you want an sample from the total package (mkv) 

for a min i thought you were refering to the master copy .. wich no one has , except for the studio's 

Sample is like 8MB then ...

cheers,

Cu Selur

pretty neat... so you have added the option to convert the bit signal in hybrid i guess 

[Selur]

Send you a link to a dev version for testing.
(Hybrid already has such an option, I just needed to tweak a few things,..)

Ps.: going to bed now

Update

have tried the latest release you pm'd me.  

And since i don't see / find any option anywhere in hybrid to convert 24bit to 16bit audio signal , i asume hybrid does that automatically depending wich format is used (flac, pcm..etc..)

So i have chosen to re-encode the audio track to *.DTS format, but the output results is still 24bit !?


Guess what, same thing.. as silent as a mute   ... as loud as an whisper   



Thanks for the effort anyway..

I'll try Surrcode... an old commercial DTS encoder i still have got in my backup archives... though , surcode wos intended to be used for DVD standards !!


cheers,
