[CDan]

cdan and any body looking for sonic cineplayer hd-dvd decoder 4.2 just google it. it's an exe file after install try eac3to and change from default to sonic.

Working on it. Lot's of hijacks to porn sites and malware are associated with this search, so beware.

on hddvd how are you guys getting nero vision to make your movie under a dvd-9 size when i try it wants make it way to big burn on disc like 14 gigs. what do you select make it only dvd-9

[Lovepeaceguru]

For Blu-Ray only....

After much experimentation the easiest way is:

Rip with AnyDVD
Guess/choose your m2ts file and Tsremux to ts file.

Play in VLC or convert as you wish

Select DVD9 as your media type and Vision will auto-fit by adjusting bitrate. You can also adjust the quality settings yourself, or use the edit function to split your project onto 2 discs.

cdan how long does it take with nero vision i'm converting to mkv with megui and it's taking lke 21 hours on a 4600 dual core processor with 4 gigs of dual ram.

Depends on what you're converting. I've done SD-DVD video to 15Mb conversion, it ran at about 0.5x. I've done 1080 H264 to 15Mb conversion that ran closer to 0.2-0.3x. This is on a Athlon 64-X2 4800. So it seems that down-encoding is slower than up-encoding, which makes sense.

cdan i'm converting a 24 gig hddvd down to 3 gigs i'l let you know how it turns out

Hi,

for those interested in another EVO transcoding method, here is my experience with Nero Recode. I used it to make a half-res video that looks better than any DVD out there and takes about the same space (or even less).

I'm also thinking of extending this method to make PSP compatible AVC files to take with me during my travels. The new PSP slim has also a component, progressive video out feature that makes it a nice SAP replacement and with a superior codec, too!

Here's a brief explanation of the steps involved:

1 Use Evodemux to rebuild all the movie segments into a single EVO containing ONLY a single video stream and NO audio at all
2 Use Nero Recode to convert the video to a MP4 file of desired resolution/quality.

3 Use Evodemux to rebuild another EVO containing ONLY a single audio stream
4 Use the experimental ffmpeg build which includes eac3 support to export the audio in AC3 format.

5 Join the audio and the video together. I Use Avidemux which might come handy for other tasks as well.

As you can see, it's still a complex process requiring several intermediate steps and large files. The problem is that Nero Recode actually doesn't support EAC3/DD+ audio or, at least, I haven't been able to make it work.

While this process require commercial software (Nero) it doesn't require to setup stubs or frameserving services. This might appeal to people like me who don't fancy to mess with Graphedit or Avisynth scripts and prefer to work with point and click interfaces or a simple command line.

The tryout version of Nero 8 includes also Recode 3.x so people who want to experiment with my method before purchasing this software might give it a try. ffmpeg and Avidemux are freeware. No other software is needed.

Those who want to try my method on a short HD movie trailer (we all know how long it takes; it's not nice to discover after hours of work that the results are not up to expectations), can find a couple of them in .EVO format at MPlayer's site

to use recode do you have to have the bluray hddvd plugin i did get the movie compressed with megui looked good but couldn't get the audio to match up with the video so i have nero but when i go to add the evo or rebuilt evo it won't show up in the box as supported files also can't get the ac3 audio to show in recode.

Go to the bottom of the list and select "all files", then they will show up.

[Krepax]

I have the HDDVD/BR plugin but that affects Nero Show Time playback abilities.

The trial version of Nero is able to read the EVOB files as well so I don't think it's essential for Recode. Also, the only way I was able to open an EVOB in Recode is to rebuild one with ONLY a video stream in it. No audio, no other streams.

cdan does it matter which version of nero you use i had the nero 8 demo but it didn't ask me for all files so i'm going back to nero 7.5.11 ultra edition.

[ultraman36]

I cant remeber which i did but if recode wont work you would have to open it up in vision and use the make movie. Also try using evodemux first then using tsremux (version.018) and make a m2ts file and try that in recode

[CDan]

I have the latest version. The "all files" option is at the very bottom of the supported files list, kind of hiding there. All types of EVO are not supported, so don't be surprised if you get an error.

Use tsremux version 18.0 version 19.0 problematic.Also when loading files uncheck Async I/O .When file loads checked again.As far as the Hd-dvd its another matter.

[MEL15]

i cant remember but google search for 0.18 and try that.

Found it and it works. Now, what do I set the output for to create a HD-DVD disc?

Ts remux its only good for bluray. Evodemux not capable to create a playable disc, there is a way I tryed and it works but its a lot of work.

DirectShowSource("grp.grf", fps=23.976, framecount=190736, audio=false)

You can add the line Trim(0, 3000) if you want to test things out....this will only process the first 3000 frams.

The grp.grf file is a graphedit graph.
1. Graph > Insert Filters > Direct Show Filters > Haali Media Splitter > It will ask for a file and open your rebuilt evo
2. Insert another filter > WMVideo Docoder DMO
3. Connect the video out of the evo to the input on the WMVideo
4. Save the graph in the same location as you plan on saving your AVS file

Load up the avs file into recode and you are on your way. The only thing is you will have an "audioless" .mp4. IF anyone knows how to get the audio taken care of, I would appreciate it.....ideally as part of the Nero Recode process. I even tried using gdsmux to mux an ac3 file with the mp4 but that didn't seem to work.

D'ont use wmvideo decoder dmo try ffdshow video decoder.

Mel15 ill try that way again but the problem i had was if my counted frames for the movie was 201398 (count from evodemux) when i use graphedit and load into virdub when i played the movie i would have to add a lot more frame to get the entire movie even though the count is right. i know the equation goes like this 140 minutes (length of film) * 60 823.976


ps is your film keeping its 16X9 aspect ratio or is it defaulting to 4x3

Evodemux has a problem with frame count what I did was to add more frames feed it into virdub and count the frames needed.I had the same trouble, the movie keeps at 16X9.

The two movies I was working on from hddvd to bluray are Constantine,Transformers,both movies came out great.

mel15 i need your help i ripped transformers hddvd rebuilt the evob with evodemux then rebuilt the audio then converted the audio with eca3to then converted the video with megui but when i try to join them together the audio is way off what am i doing wrong the video looks great at 4.5 gigs forgot to mention joning with mkvmerge

Its the audio too fast or too slow? go back to eca3to and use the audio delay option speed it up or slow it down. try 1000ms up or down don't be afraid to increase or decrease you may go up to 4000ms.......its a little work but the end results are great.Let me know.

I forgot to tell you mkvmerge its know for speeding the audio a bit,it happened to me many times.Ciao

mel15 i'm trying what you suggested i'm up to -10000 is this okay what the best thing to convert audio with i use eac3to with sonic because to use nero i believeyou need the hddvd plugin.

[MEL15]

mel15 i'm trying what you suggested i'm up to -10000 is this okay what the best thing to convert audio with i use eac3to with sonic because to use nero i believeyou need the hddvd plugin.

Hi -10000 seems a little steep I would start with -4000 use eac3to with sonic see what happens....let me know
