Re: Please Help!

Yep, I just add in the nero audio, use mp4muxer to drop the handbrake audio and its all good. Curious though even with CFR selected in handbrake I get this in mediainfo Frame rate mode : Variable Frame rate : 23.976 fps Minimum frame rate : 23.974 fps Maximum frame rate : 23.981 fps Not quite sure w...

Re: Please Help!

I've decided to use CFV because I intend to stream my encode from a media server eventually and I've read that media server programs don't handle VFR very well.

Re: Please Help!

When I merge two movies together I use DVD Shrink and DVD2One http://www.afterdawn.com/software/cd_dvd/copy_dvd/dvd_shrink.cfm http://www.dvd2one.com/ DVD Shrink lets me strip out whatever I want from the DVD, so I just chuck every thing except the main movie. Then I do the same for the second Disk....

Re: Handbrake as a Muxer

Thats all I wanted, to make a suggestion and get a reasoned response of whether its a good idea, in development, or why it won't or can't be done. I get what s55 is saying, and I see he has a developer label so all respect to him, I just don't want to see that defense preclude the possibility of use...

Re: Handbrake as a Muxer

You know what never mind, I can do all that now. I guess my point was that handbrake could simplify the process significantly and increase usability greatly. Your point is "why add a feature you can do with something else?" But if the devs followed that logic there would be no handbrake. I...

Re: Please Help!

Additionally (if you're on windows and have a 64-bit OS) I would recommend getting the 64-bit handbrake CLI, if you don't have it already. If you like the gui just drop the CLI.exe to the handbrake folder. On identical settings for the same movie I went from aprox. 75fps to aprox 110fps a massive im...

Re: Please Help!

phibertron you are simply the most amazing person (unless you are really an alien intelligence or religious Deity) ever, period. I haven't given this a try yet but I will as soon as i post this. The audio sync problem I had wasn't because of vfr - I tried every combination I could (constant - force ...

Re: Handbrake as a Muxer

Name one on PC that will do multiple audio tracks, audio track language and names, as readable by itunes. Please, I actually really would like to know and don't care if it costs money.

I'll probably just use CFR then for compatibility, thanks for the tips - I'll try them out :) . Once again thank you for your time.

Re: Please Help!

So I was just testing some footage (X-Men the first of the trilogy) and I noticed that the audio was out of sync like how you described it would be if the fps wasn't correctly set. mediainfo says its variable but the synching issue is on the PS3, vlc, and itunes so I don't think its the player. I'm ...

Re: Please Help!

@Phibertron Thanks for the info and all the help. I've decided that for me, its a cosmetic change and for now I'm just going to enjoy multiple audio tracks. I've read around and it seems as though there are two ways to add track names (I've tried both) in mp4box and neither one is recognized by itun...

Handbrake as a Muxer

Handbrake files seem to have a high compatibility with itunes. For this reason I was wondering if the developers had considered an audio passthrough option (not just AC3 passthrough) such that handbrake didn't touch the track as long as it is compatible with the output container. Likewise for the vi...

So this is what I've been using after all the advice I've been given: mp4box -add video.m4v:lang=en -add audio1.m4a:group=1:lang=en:name="Dolby Surround" -add audio2.m4a:disable:group1:lang=en:name="Director's Commentary" output.m4v Frame rate mode : Variable Frame rate : 23.952 ...

Re: Please Help!

If you have at least two audio streams and you play a movie (in itunes or on an ipod touch) you can switch between them. If the audio is done in handbrake it will read "English: Stereo" when muxing with mp4box it detects the language tag hence it still says English but fails to read the tr...

Re: Please Help!

Thanks again Phibertron, I tried that as well as -name trackID=NAME and both named my audio tracks but Itunes wouldn't read the name, media player classic and mediainfo would. Like I said I know that this is possible 'cause handbrake does it, I just don't know if mp4box can. To be clear, this is of ...

Re: Please Help!

I knew you probably wouldn't have a frameserving route into Avisynth/MeGui, but I thought the rest of Nick's research might be of use, and I'm glad it was. Since we are friends we have spent months rendering the same projects in Handbrake and MeGui w/ QTGMC, and the latter does have a slight edge r...

Muxing for ITunes

I need to specify the audio track names in mp4box such that it is readable by Itunes.I've tried -add audio:lang=en:name="Dolby Surround" and it does name the audio track (as displayed by mediainfo and Media player Classic) but is not readable by Itunes. I don't know if mp4box can do it but...

I have spent days attempting this and I am fed up enough to simply beg the help of the community. I use handbrake to encode my videos but the audio encoder present (faac) is sub par to nero. So I encode the video, Closed Captions, and Chapters with Handbrake and the audio with nero through megui. My...
