Hi
does the -ep parameter still work? I have troubles with "Fringe (season 1)"...

question : -sk.. if a disc has 4 episodes and I use -sk 2 then this means I get m2ts No 3 and 4 in one step, right? I think it would be better to be able to select the one episode I want, like -sk 2 gives me the demuxed second m2ts...

best regards

-ep should still be working. It is not currently possible to demux a single episode. I'll consider implementing that.

...ok, because here with this disc neither the GUI nor the CLI does not do anything...
cli ends directly without error message
GUI shows the green bar but no reading or file-writing is done.

I don't know that disk. -ep requires each episode in its own M2TS. Is that the case?

yes, there are 4 m2ts files:

Please provide a link to purchase that same disk. If it is a set of disks tell which disk it is. Also, please give the CLI command line you used.

the set is here:
https://www.amazon.de/Fringe-komplette- ... vd&sr=1-13

cli:
D:\DVD>apps\dgdemux\dgdemux.exe -i "E:\BDMV\PLAYLIST\00004.mpls" -ang 1 -nopre -o "Track" -demux 1011,1100,1102,1200,1202,1205,1207,Chapters -ep

it is the first disc of season 1 (the other discs have the same problem)...

OK, thank you. It looks like it got broken when it was converted to a pure CLI application. Fixing it...

ok, thanks;
also sorry for the late reply... I had a strange effect: all of a sudden I received from the system (Win10x64) that the application is not suitable for the system and I should contact the author... the GUI gave an error that it could "not spawn DGDemux.exe"...
don't know what this was. hopefully not a maleware...
In any case, I reverted to a recent system backup. There version 46 was installed, which did work as intended. Then after updating to 50 is stopped working again...

That's expected given the regression. It's fixed locally for upcoming slipstream 51. Gotta check the linux version too.

Energy has been in short supply. Physical or mental, does it matter? When bottom hits there is only up, we hope.

Please test this and if it is OK I will release it.

The linux version 50 appears to be correct.

hi, yes -ep works with version 51;

strange observation: if I kill the CMD-Box with version 46 then also DGDemux is closed; with 51 DGDemux continues to read... I have to close the task in the task manager.
Regards

Must be down to the difference between WinMain() and main() apps. Does anyone care?

Thank you for your testing and for bringing this issue to light, arrgh.

Released as slipstream 51.

Hi

I have some questions about the "-ep" switch.

It is possible to add a list of which epsiode/m2ts have to be demuxed?
Maybe in this format: -ep 1,4,7,19,28

Right now a user on Doom9 has issues with an UHD (Alien) to create a multi-Edition mkv with chapterEditor(cE).
One issue is that eac3to not works. But he found a solution/workaround.

It would help a LOT to specify only the needed m2ts parts.

The switch "-sk" skips only from the beginning if I understand it correctly, but this would not help me.

EDIT:
If the the m2ts-list input feature is implemented, I think we can ignore my request.

This would be fairly easy to implement. If we do implement this, i.e., -ep x,y,z would that remove the need for the M2TS list stuff? Honestly, it's not going to be easy to do the M2TS list editing, etc., in DGDemux/DGDemuxGUI.

Using this method would be only an "ugly" workaround to create a multi-Edition mkv and I guess it will not always perfectly working.
It is very important to have the m2ts list input in DGDemux.
Maybe in the beginning it's enough that only DGDemux has this feature and not the GUI.

OK, I have an idea. Who wants ugly?

So a person born ugly is out of luck? Too bad? No problem for me but you know.
