Maybe I was supposed to be using DGDecode all along!

That would be MPEG2Source() for DGMPGDec.

Right, that was what I meant (i.e. using the underlying DGDecode.DLL, whatever the source filter's name was). Too many names!

Please hold... an operator will be with you shortly.

Here's a fun one for you: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Yojimbo-4K-Blu-ray/332600/ https://www.amazon.co.jp/Yojimbo-4K-Blu-ray/dp/B0BV122JDJ In spite of what Blu-ray.com says, this disc has the 3.0 "Perspecta" audio track in LPCM (not Dolby Digital). The stereo (dual mono) LPCM track demuxes flawle...

Just a quick note, the DGMPGDec main page still says v2.0.0.7 is the latest release (and links to that file) but the binaries notification thread has v2.0.0.8 posted as of Dec. 28, 2022. And this got me wondering if that old recommendation I was operating on was actually mixed up (in application rat...

Thanks. I think I'll switch source filters, then.

No DG hate here (or anywhere in my general vicinity)!

This is going off topic even more, but I just spent some time reading the D2VSource GitHub and now I have doubts. Can you weigh in on the frame-accuracy of MPEG2Source? Can I trust it? I literally don't care about any other factor because I'm not using it for re-encoding purposes. I just need to be ...

Ah, OK, thanks! Yes, the index gets created and is usable, no issue there. Most of my work gets done on a Ryzen 5700G system using the integrated graphics. I don't really have a use for a discrete GPU these days because I don't do any gaming or mining or machine learning, and the CPU is plenty power...

I've been trying to script some tools to automate collecting screenshots from any given source with frame accuracy and I was told that D2VSource is the best plugin for loading MPEG-2 video in an AviSynth script, which means that I have to index first with DGIndex. First off, if any of that is incorr...

Large Language Model, i.e. ChatGPT, etc.

I realized that my username might give someone the totally crazy idea that I'm a rogue LLM and presented a much more plausible option.

That's fair. :salute: I also considered, as an alternative, asking for DGDemux to detect previous episodes (i.e. same "output name" + index [n]) and then just automatically set the new index to continue from there. That would accomplish the same thing without adding an "option", but it also seemed l...

When using the "Episode demuxing" option in DGDemuxGUI, the episode index automatically starts at "1", and will clobber any existing episode files with the same "output name". This is fine if the disc/playlist in question contains the entire run of episodes, but if the series has multiple discs (or ...

I'm glad that the disc purchase wasn't a complete write-off just to fix the PCM bug!

Looks good!

I'm mildly surprised that I didn't notice it being a regression, but discs like this are uncommon enough that maybe I'd never run into one before that point while using DGDemux (to notice that it once had worked).

In any case, thank you again!

Sorry for being slow to respond; I was away for a few days.

In any case, thank you for jumping on this so quickly. I'll grab the updated version and try it out today.

Superb! Faster than I expected.

Rocky forgot to say: Welcome to the forum!

No problem, and thank you for looking into it.

I've seen this on a number of discs now. The most recent ones are: https://www.amazon.co.uk/On-the-Run-Blu-ray/dp/B09YRK8N4L https://www.amazon.co.jp/KihachirA-Kawamoto-Works-Blu-ray/dp/B09MJ74TH1 (I'm sorry that they are not exactly mainstream releases, but stereo LPCM isn't very common. Seems like...
