As to the original question, Follow Ryu's advice (excepting that you can use SupRip if you like to convert to .srt...like I said its better from my experience and the author of SupRead (Pelican9) seems to not be currently updating SupRead or replying to any posts in the SupRead forum.)
Side Note : All you need is vsfilter avisynth plugin but if you want any type of control over the look/position/style of the subs, download VobSub. You only need to install the SubReSync tool from that package. Fire up SubReSync and open up your .srt file. You can then change the font/size/style/position. When you're done a .style file will be created with the same file name as the .srt subtitle file. VSFilter will see the .style file (I think that's the extension) and apply the settings you made.
My bad, I didn't look close enough. You are right SupRip is the better program. I completely forgot about that nice little application. Thank you. :-)
Thanks Guys I'll give that a shot!

Thanks.
Great, I think MPC-HC might have K-Lite incorporated... not sure though.
Glad to see your good now.

For some reason, after I convert the video, the audio cuts out a lot. Any idea what the deal is?

Your media player of choice could not be respecting/acknowledging the DAR flag and not resizing it on the fly like it should, or MKV2VOB could be not applying a DAR. Maybe MKV2VOB ignores DAR flags in the output because maybe PS3 doesn't support a DAR flag in a vob container? I'm no expert on MKV2VOB but that's my only guess is that MKV2VOB is dumping the DAR flag and leaving the resolution at its SAR (Stored Aspect Ratio.) You may have to re-encode the video. Easiest method would be RipBot264.
Hey Alcore,
thanks for your help recently. i finally converted the movie into mp4 with the correct resolution and 6 channel (5.1) sound. took me a while, but eventually i managed to use a combination of MKVextractGUI, h264info and yamb to manouvere the streams into the right formats and made the mp4. im sure ripbot would be fine, however my PC isnt the fastest one around.
cheers mate!

Hi all
I have a 1080p .wmv HD file, containing VC-1 video and WMA10 5.1 channel audio.
The file as is plays on my PS3, but with no sound.
After hours spent googling , I learnt that the PS3 will only play audio out of a .wmv file if the audio stream is WMA stereo, not 5.1.
What's the best way to get it playing on my PS3?

hey all, how goes it? im back with my problem again, but this time the audio is the issue.
i downloaded a movie around 2.5gig in a MKV. i wanted to convert it to MP4 or likewise in order to play it directly from the PS3 hard drive. i dont want to stream. original conversions didnt work out as the video resolution changed - whereby it was more squashed up (more narrow horizontally) than the original resolution. i managed to sort that out ok. however now i have an issue with the audio, whereby all my attempts to extract the audo part (48.0KHz, 6 channels, AAC (version 4) (LC) (SBR)) result in either getting only a 2 channel version, or a same 6 channel version at only 24.0KHz.
I felt a sense of relief today when i compiled the files back into the MP4 and the video resolution was fixed, only to find that the audio AAC file had only the 24.0KHz and played back only the background noise (music, sounds effects, etc) and not the actors voices.
any ideas? i presume its a setting in a decoder/codec somewhere that all the programs like gotsent, tsmuxer, yamb, etc all use - ive tried them all without success.
any help would be awesome! cheers!

You need to either convert the 6 channel AAC to 2 channel AAC (48kHz) for MP4 because that is what is compatible with the PS3, or convert the 6 channel AAC to 6 channel AC3 (48kHz) for m2ts muxing. The reason you were gerring noise is 24kHz is not supported by the PS3 in those audio formats.
Demux the AAC track from your mkv using mkvextract and convert using eac3to.

hey odin,
ived demuxed the track from the mkv using mkvextractGUI no worries, but thats where it comes out as 24khz. do i just continue on and goto eac3to and that will fix the issue when it becomes an AC3?
incidentally i made another MP4 of the same movie/file which has the AC3 6 channel track in it, but unfortunately i used the wrong h264 stream (the one with 5.1 AVC profile - squashed up/narrow resolution instead of the 4.1 stream). problem is i can seem to get that AC3 stream out of that MP4, any program for that?

Use eac3to and the following command (with your directories obviously)
c:\eac3to c:\videos\audio.aac c:\videos\audio.ac3 -resampleTo48000
This will take your 24kHz AAC track, convert it to AC3 and resample it to 48kHz. That above is a general command line, you need to input the exact locations of the files on your computer (and exact location of the new AC3 file).
Download the latest eac3to from this link. Afterdawn's is usually a few versions behind.

should i try the GUI version, or do i need another codec?
this is the log file after giving it a go...
eac3to v2.87

hi everybody!
I'm new to this and I have a simple question I haven't been able to solve reading most of the thread:
Is there a way to make a .vob file with dual audio (two audio strings, eng & spa) and the possibility of turning subtitles on and off on the PS3. Most of my .mkv files have this caracteristics and it would be great to keep them that way...
Thanks in advance!

Are you running eac3to from it's download folder, with all of the other goodies in there? The version you are using comes with an app called NeroAacDec.exe which decodes the AAC track.
Also, to see if eac3to see's all of the extra filters you have installed run the following command. Also, the GUI doesn't accept AAC, even though eac3to does.
eac3to.exe -test

nero audio decoder (nero 6 or older) doesnt seem to be installed. caution you need nero 7
Arcsoft DTS decoder doesnt seem to be installed
sonic audio decoder doesnt seem to be installed
so can i presume i need to install nero? and it has to be nero 7 or earlier?

Honestly, I don't know if Nero needs to be installed... I have always had it on my PC. Sonic and Arcsoft, no... these are the preferred deocders for DTS, Arcsoft being the default.

OK guys, I need some help regarding an issue.
I have an MKV file which has an OGM (Ogg Vorbis) Audio Stream.
I tried putting the OGM file in tsMuxer, but it seems tsMuxer does not support OGM yet.
I need to convert this to either DTS or AC3, so that it works with tsMuxer. I am making an AVCHD DVD for the PS3 by the way.
Please tell me to which format should I convert this OGM file into, DTS or AC3.
Secondly, also please tell the steps for this conversion, like which program to use, etc ..
Thanx for your help :)

I prefer DTS over AC3. And everything you need to make an AVCHD is in this toolkit:

Hi all,
I have an m2ts file that when converted to m2ts (via tsmuxer) only plays audio, the video is black. I checked the levels on the mkv file and it was 5.1, so I used --
1 - mkvextract to extract both ac3 audio and h264 video streams
2 - opened the video stream in h264info and changed the level to 4.1 (only value added)
3 - muxed the video and audio stream files back together into a m2ts file in tsmuxer
When I play the file on the ps3, the video still does not play.
When I play the new m2ts file on my pc, the video appears very blotchy and pixelated.
Would anyone know what step's I'm missing or need to add ?

Sometimes changing the level alone from 5.1 to 4.1 or 4.0 is not enough (for example if the video uses too many reference frames)
You will probably need to re-encode the video.

Hi all,
i need to say a big contratulations to myself for finally re-muxing my MKV file to m2ts. it only took me 4 days of hard slogging and trial and error.
i must say a big thanx on here to all the posters who give their tips and time to help us - especially Ryu77, Odin and Alcore.
Odin - your recommendation with eac3to worked a treat - i actually had to -r8brain my file (as recommended by eac3to) which finally worked to make the file to a playable format for my PS3.
cheers all

Good. If you need more help there is another good thread here. It deals with video processing on many levels. Another thread started by Ryu77.

I have never really worked with OGG before, is that the container or the codec? If you could upload a sample I might be able to help.
EDIT: I just read the hyperlink on OGG, they suggest Foobar for playback, maybe this app converts too???

OK, I have uploaded the OGG file, here's the download link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/179347105/Ku...-001_Track3.ogg
Its a 20MB file.
Please take it for a test drive, and then tell me how to properly convert it to either DTS or AC3, whichever is better ..
Thanx :)
