THD not merging using UsEac3to?

[DelBoy83]

When I -demux using UsEac3to the THD track separates the THD track and the AC3 track but doesn't merge at the end. When using cmd it merges without problem so I'm wondering what the problem could be? The AC3 track doesn't re encode during the demux process.

I would guess that the thdmerge.exe file is not present. Try taking it from our distribution and placing it in the same folder as the eac3to.exe used by UsEac3to. If that does not work, please ask about it in the UsEac3To thread at doom9.

The thdmerge.exe is present after checking. I'm using the latest version which I got from the videohelp website. I will get from your distribution and see if that works. Thanks Curly.

It shouldn't matter which version you use.

Do you get this message at the end:

"Merging THD and AC3 for [filename]"

If so, is there an error message:

"Could not execute thdmerge.exe. Is it missing?"

The .thd and .ac3 files must both be present with the same names except for the extensions, which must be in lower case, e.g., file.thd and file.ac3

[DelBoy83]

Works absolutely fine when using cmd with -demux. I get the message Merging THD and AC3 which is what I expected when I run -demux through UsEac3to but I don't get any merging message even though I have the thdmerge.exe in the same folder. All I get is the separate THD and AC3 tracks without the merge.

[Curly]

Can you give me the actual command line that UsEac3to runs? I think it may be using some of that funky _%*blah syntax and that is confusing things.

-demux -destpath="C:\users\MY PC\Downloads\complete\Video\BDMV\" -progressnumbers -log="C:\Users\MY PC\Downloads\complete\Video\BDMV\0_Job_1.log"

From the log file

I needed the full command line.

Please show me a screenshot of the destination directory after the failure. The file names have to be as I specified. Thank you.

These are the exact filenames created. Apologies for the lack of screenshot as my Internet isn't working so having to use mobile phone.

Looks like Peter may have found the cause. I'll check that and report back.

Automatic merging is going to be removed. So marking this resolved.
