Am Freitag, 30. Mai 2008 schrieb L. Weiss: Oh well... Part 1 ends with: 00 00 01 b9 Famous last bytes, so to say :-( That's the MPEG code for program end which indicates - you may have already guessed it - the end of a movie. And, of course, dvbcut honors this code and stops processing the file(s). If you chop off the last four bytes, it should work as expected (until it encounters the next PE code). The question is, how did that happen? A split-file recording should not contain PE except at the very end (of the last chunk). It just doesn't make sense otherwise. Oh, i think it makes very much sense! Because what should be the sense of a split-recording at all? I think there can only be two main reasons: First if the filesystem can not handle big files (as FAT does) or second you want small parts to put the recording parts on CD/DVD. In both cases you do not want to connect them to one, so every part needs a PE. In my case it was just the standard configuration, i didnt wanted splitting at all. Yeah, but a MPEG transport stream is not meant to have an EOF. Also the newest Topfield receiver cuts the recorded TS in parts of 1.5GB (dispite the fact that the interanl disk is a ext3 one, but that's another sory) but the parts have no EOF (and also no proprietary headers anymore), just pur MPEG TS. Is it possible that you stored the videos already as MPEG Program Stream and thats the reason fo the EOF markers and the 650MB chunks? Maybe you also could store the TS directly without conversion to (splittet) PS? ciao Ralph PS: BTW,... did you suceed after chopping off the last 4 bytes? - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Hi, -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: DVBCUT development discussions dvbcut-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Gesendet: 28.05.08 17:41:06 An: DVBCUT development discussions dvbcut-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Betreff: Re: [DVBCUT-devel] Some ideas for new features i do not get it work. My movie is named part01.mpg to part 07.mpg. Ive tried to start dvbcut with dvbcut part01.mpg part02.mpg part03.mpg ... part 07.mpg Where do the parts come from? Do they have individual (maybe proprietary) headers? Can mplayer play them if simply concatenating them just with: cat part01.mpg part02.mpg ... part0t.mpg newfile.mpg If so, then I guess DVBcut shouldn't have a problem opening the multiple files... of course you could also opencut newfile.mpg then! ;-) When the programmwindow shows up, it asks where to save the index-file. After that, only part01.mpg gets indexed. So this is the only part that i can cut, too. Same behaviour when i try to add the parts via File-Open. When using the menu/dialog you have to be especially carefull that the order is correct! When i type dvbcut -g part01.mpg part02.mpg part03.mpg ... dvbvut creates an index for part01.mpg and exits. I never got more than one part for cutting in dvbcut. H,... maybe that feature is really broken??? I'll test it later... Oh... ok. Thats pretty cool. In that case it would help a lot if you just add some better feature description to the project-page ;-) DVBcut is kind of research-ware, you have to discover some of the features by yourself! Looking in the config file for instance is a good starting point to find hidden features... ;-) But again,... first you have to find out where it is... ahemmm... [...] Are the black bars part of my recording? I suppose they are, yes. Some stations (at least here in Germany) send real 16:9 video, however, and that makes cutting pretty easy. My recording is from Pro7... it was recorded on a Windows box with DVBViewer. Apart from own material produced by Pro7, most of the movies come in 16:9 letterbox (e.g. in a 4:3 frame with black bars). Of course one could try also to detect those black bars, but that's also very time consuming like the search for similar pictures black frames before/after adverts or scene changes (BTW, the last can be activated in the config file for the auto-chapters function). :) But the detection of audio chanel changes should be quite fast and easy to implement... ciao Ralph __ Jeden Monat 1 hochkarätiger maxdome-Blockbuster GRATIS!

What is a proprietary header and how do i check if i have one? When i concatenate them with cat i can play the result with mplayer. But when i play it with xine, it has one broken frame (green artefacts) on the cut-off point of the files. But the file should contain the index for part02...part07 as well. That is, it should be a lot larger than an index for part01 alone. It's just the *message* that is wrong (because that part of dvbcut doesn't deal well with multiple filenames). No, the index is exactly the same size as only for the first part. No matter how i generate it. When using the menu/dialog you have to be especially carefull that the order is correct! I would prefer even a wrong order instead of trying for hours to get more then one part opened ;-) Just to clarify things here: It is possible to open more than one mpg-file together and cut them as one in dvbcut and export it as one movie, right? Can that be deactivated in config, too? - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
