just so you guys know , the latest build of mkv2vob has added fast forward and rewind support


V1.5.2 28/Jan/2008
Fixed bug with long filenames with DTS give "Error creating AC3 from WAV!"
DTS now recompresses to higher 640bit quality instead of 384bit.

V1.5.1 27/Jan/2008
Fixed muxing bug, 1.5 was completely non-functional sorry.

V1.5 27/Jan/2008
Added Fast forward/rewind support


this is now by far the better option

Yup

I'm in the process of reconverting all my movies now!

(It seems ff/rw has been made possible by using tsMuxer, which is a new application added to MKV2VOB)

Everyone should get 1.52 immediately. I have also noticed a 720p movie I had that I couldn't get working no matter what (MKV2VOB and GOTSent both failed) now works

Just a little update, it works great!

All my movies now pause/play/resume and ff/rw absolutely perfectly

Just a shame 1080p non-transcoding support is soo sketchy (5-15% of 1080p files will work it's guessed) else this would be the ultimate solution (all 1080p videos will work with transcoding, but that equals a loss in quality and a much larger file output).

[Huleboeren]

Audioboxer, can you ask 3r1c why the movie has to go through the temp folder on C: first?
Im always running out of space in the middle of a remux/transcode/whatever-it-is-called

Movie input is on drive D:
Movie output is on drive D:
But it has to go through C: for some reason

Very stupid

Yeah it drives me nuts at times

I'll ask him next time the forums are up - Offline just now.

There seems to be a small bug with MKV2VOB and handling MKV files with DTS audio (MKV files usually come with 5.1 AC3 audio, but some come with DTS audio).

What happens is every so often the video playback speeds up for 5 or so seconds, but the audio plays at normal speed - After the speed up on the video (playback back to normal speed), everything is still in sync.

I made 3r1c aware of the issue and am awaiting feedback.

[Huleboeren]

I just saw a movie which had DTS originally - I noticed no speedups visually -
Perhaps your computer was just very busy it messed up the 'encode'?

Oh, and did you ask regarding why it has to go through C: ?

There is a solution in here somewhere (36 pages)

but my problem now is.... the program is using my C:\ to place the temporary files into (like the audio streams etc)

but my c:\ is packed... i was hoping it would use the drive im saving to to place all those temp files into D:\ since that has 50gbs of free space


anyway in telling it where to put the temp files??

read up this thread there is a post that I made on how to do this.

The replier put down the ole smart ass comment of my answer is in the topic somewhere - Yeah mate can't wait to sift through 36 pages to find it

As for DTS someone else said they had the problem as well I do nothing on my PC when it is converting, and every non DTS movie works fine... strange.

I just tested the latest mkv2vob..

Works flawlessly. Pretty simple too. Select mvk file, name output and click save. Wait about 2 minutes and it's done.

depends on the filesize. I've had full movies take close to 20 minutes for a file that is almost 5gb.

[Piggy]

Yeah heh for sure. The file was 1,153,595,606 bytes

After it was converted it ended up being around: 1,229,180,928 bytes.

About 76 mbs added.. not too bad really.

[Audioboxer]

By the way I fixed my DTS issues with GOTSent!

Beta 10 now uses tsMuxer which is the new app that appeared that allowed MKV2VOB to have ff/rw support.

I used the "mux to vob" output in GOTSent with my MKV and it produces a MPG file for whatever reason, but it works!

(even although it is an MPG container, it is not transcoding)
