Cannot generate any file with a size larger than 985661440 bytes (caused by -r8brain)

Post by jul059 »

Hello everyone!

I'm unable to generate any file with a size larger than 985661440 bytes. I've tried decoding 2 different streams: the first is 7.1 DTS-X, the second is 5.1 AC3. I tried both wav and flac. My options are: -downStereo -mixlfe -down16 -resampleTo44100 -r8brain -normalize

eac3to 3.45
up-to-date windows 10, writing drive is NTFS

Progress stops, cpu load drops to zero, and nothing happens. Any ideas to troubleshoot?

Welcome to the forum, jul059! That sounds very strange. I will test with your options tomorrow and report back.

EDIT: Apparently a known issue:

I will investigate.

With a bit more testing, it would appear the problem is with -r8brain, as resampling without this flag works just fine. I picked up the flag on a webpage somewhere, but it is notably absent from the latest help when I simply run eac3to. A shame because r8brain is really great!

We can't fix this. r8brain is broken and there is no available source or support for it. The next version will print a warning and not implement r8brain. It's not that much better than SSRC anyway I am told. Marking resolved.
