I doubt that the POP I've heard is only a few milliseconds, or that a few milliseconds would be an issue. We detect the POP sound as a low tone, you claim to be able to recognize it as part of an explosion, but the shortest detectable tone, identifiable as a tone, would be on the order of 100 milli...

From what I have read so far, it is a problem with purely linear files as well: As far as I have understood, we need to demux audio tracks as soon as we want to generate a MKV (without ordered chapters) from more than one M2TS file. Only if we want to convert one single M2TS file to a MKV file, it d...

The method is called "Ordered Chapters" because the player plays the chapters literally in the order they are in the chapters file. Notably, the player does not try to sort chapters according to their start time. This can make the player jump wildly around in the MKV file, which is perfectly accepta...

I've duplicated it in DGDemux. It's a short low-frequency pop, though, not a loud hum. Investigating... Thank you very much for all your tests! I am still sure that the pop is not random noise. Although it may seem like a weird low-frequency sound, it is the last few milliseconds from the audio at ...

Are we concerned only with PIDs 1100 and 1101? Yes, correct. The audio track PIDs in question are 4352 (English audio, DTSHD-MA) and 4353 (German audio, E-AC3), in decimal notation. In hexadecimal notation, the PIDs are 1100 and 1101. There are other additional audio tracks as well, but I don't car...

Oh, that changes things. The idea to just compare DGDemux and eac3to won't be as useful. Let's see. I believe that it could be quite useful. We need to differentiate between editions and audio tracks . The key to understanding is that every edition contains all audio tracks . That is, the German ed...

@ Shoespooner Welcome to the forum and thank you for your analysis. It will be useful after I manage to duplicate the issue. Thanks a lot to you, too. For completeness, VLC is also able to play multi-edition MKVs, and the very same issue appears there. This is a hint that the issue may not be due t...

I am the other guy who has discussed this issue with hubble4c on Reddit. Although this really isn't my area, I'll try to answer a part of your questions. If DGDemux is used to demux the English DTS track then there is an audio problem, but not when using eac3to (no matter which version). You haven't...
