M2TS to any other container ...

[ToiletDuck]

well.. it seems to be an Never Ending Story 

In a nutshell..

MKV to TS (containing EAC3 track) = V
Vice Versa TS to TS , MKv or whatever (containing again EAC3 track) = X_X no show !

Interesting that hybrid doesn't protest to keep eac3 track in ts container, when converting from MKV to TS.
But vice versa, it does complain !

Pretty much the same issue way back.  Back then i couldn't create ts file using EAC3 audio, exact same warning popped up in hybrid!


Have created an thread as you might have noticed about eac3 Sound playback problems after muxing an media file to TS container using muxer.
So, it's "solved"/ worked arround by going back to the official tsmuxer release (2.16.x)..

But that brings me back to where we started off!
Demux/extracting isn't possible anymore using tsmuxer through hybrid.

Crashes are imminent again , because of the Atmos tracks (and not eac3 this time ) 

Seems , ill have to manually help an hand in this in the future untill this ↑ gets adressed permanently


EDIT ; just posted the issue's related to tsmuxer mainly at github.  Hope for the best , prepare for the worst .. 

By the by... where you @t Sir Selur   ?

But vice versa, it does complain !

it warns that if the input contains a eac3 stream an ac3 core the core will be removed since mkvtoolnix will automatically remove it.

Regarding the crashes: Using ffmpeg also is an option.
You could try to: extract with tsMuxeR and multiplex with ffmpeg if muxing is the issue.

Do you have a sample for a file where remuxing fails with the last dev?
I just tried remuxing files with atmos/thd and ea3 stream between m2ts&mkv and had no problems.

Ahh,.. okay it's 'just' about PDVD and device compatibility, not about some crash or a broken stream.

I would love to do so, but beside the slow performance i don't have an problem with, FFmpeg for some reason has an huge flaw too regarding pGS subs !!
I have mentioned that already, when using ffmpeg, for some dumbfound reason the subs are playing OUT of sync !!

 Yes, first thing i did is reproducing the issue whit debug enabled and uploaded the package (debug+test.m2ts sample) in the other thread selur..
Afterwards i've installed former hybrid release, just to find out that the audio issue could be resolved by rolling back TSmuxer to an older release  

But by doing that i will be unable to let hybrid process media files with Atmos tracks = Crashes !!
So, rolling back to other ts mux release is the lesser of the 2 evils you know.  Cause, don't have much atmos projects anyway..

But i do have lots of episodes containing AC3 / DTS tracks..
