TV Series Rip Problems (Eureka 7 DVD)

[Migs-se]

Hello All.

I'm currently having a problem ripping individual Episodes from the anime Eureka 7 DVDs, the problems I have are the Audio and Subtitles are totally Out Of Sync.

I work from Images (saved to the hard drive) I made from the original DVD's. The main goal I want is simply to make a encoding of this series into a MKV container (which I know how to do, so no need to explain this process. Not as Advanced as some people do it, but it's fine for me).

This is a pic from DVD Decrypter so you can see how the DVD is structured.


As you can see, these is more than one PGC that have the same timing. After extracting them all in full, I've noticed they are exactly the same(most probably all linking to the same source PGC?).

Basically, when I use Ifo Mode in DVD Decrypter, I only extract the episode I want (using info obtained from Power DVD's info feature, but as you can see it's not fairly accurate) and have the audio (AC3) demuxed.

When I import them into a MKV container, the subtitle adds and extra episode length to the file (total 47 minutes instead of the usual 24 minutes). The Audio is out of sync by roughly 1 second.

Can anyone give me any advise on how to overcome this problem?
Anything kind of info is most appreciated.

Thank You in Advance.

The AC3 might be corrupt.

If these are Hong Kong discs, very likely.

Womble MPEG Video Wizard works well on corrupt AC3. You can drop the video into the timeline, clip off 1 frame, and then save out to a new video, with MP2 audio. The new audio will be fine.

That fix only applies if the source is messed up.

Your issue may be in the conversion to MKV.

These are actually original R1 Bandai DVD's

I'll try out your idea though, thanks.
