DVD to AVI: cant select Audio track different from ENG

Post by mlomonaco » Fri Jan 01, 2010 1:30 am

Hi guys,
I dl-ed the 4585 build.
I have a DVD ripped on the HD.
If I add track by putting the $/VIDEO_TS folder ($ = root of the whole DVD rip, let's say where VIDO_TS + AUDIO_TS are placed) in the DiscRoot/URL I can correctly manage the encoding to H.264 BUT the only AudioId I can select is 128 (ENG).
If otherwise I choose as DiscRoot the $ folder (a level higher than the VIDEO_TS folder), I can add the right video track and in the Audio Tab I can add and select the right AudioID (129, I need Italian): but then the conversion fails in the test phase and if I go on anyway, I got the no file output. No matter of what type of transcoding is used for audio (I chose copy)
The log is like this:

Code: Select all

If I try to play the selected track instead of convert I got the following msg on the log terminating with a mesagebox saying something like "the -aspect switch is missing".

Code: Select all

# ".\codecs\mplayer.exe"  -gui -vf screenshot,scale  -channels 6 -dvd-device "G:

t 0:0 -vo gl2 -colorkey 16 "dvd://18" -quiet -slave

The -gui option will only work as the first command line argument.

Note that above $ = "G:\MyDVDRips\MYTITLE"
I watched the very good sticky viewtopic.php?f=17&t=8082&start=0 but I cannot find any mention to the problem of language track selection.

The only way to select AudioID is the AddTrack method using the $ root: if I choose the .IFO file method I have only the 0 value in the combobox (suppose it corresponds to 128)

I suspect that the right way is to put the VIDEO_TS folder in the DiscRoot and that using the higher level folder for adding tracks is ako bug.

Is this "audio id selection" problem a known one?

Thank you all.

M.
