Warning for container FPS != ES FPS

[Boulder]

Would it be possible to have DGIndexNV warn if the container framerate differs from the video track framerate? I've sometimes come across Matroska files where this happens, and eac3to shows a little warning message. I guess the video framerate is the one to trust so it would also be good to allow using that in the DGI file. This deviation probably also affects the chapters2qp functionality.

It is much easier to use MediaInfo than to introduce complexity. JM2C

I can use an external tool like MediaInfo or eac3to, but since I don't use them for other purposes, it's an extra step. Besides, there is the need to fix the DGI file manually regardless.

We can have a popup on open that notifies the mismatch and allows to select which frame rate to use. Then of course someone will ask for an option to disable the popup.

I was thinking along the lines of the d2v file correction DGIndex had. A popup and a question to fix the index file. By default, fix applied (also for CLI).

Please test this and advise if it does what you need. It checks for a mismatch on open. There is a new controlling option in settings that lets you choose what to do when a mismatch is detected:

Prompt
Use ES FPS
Use Container FPS

Please open DGIndexNV and then close it once before testing to get the INI file updated.

Thank you for the test version. It will take a longer time to get to test it as my house is under a bigger renovation job and I'm living in a temporary flat for the next three weeks or so. All the computer stuff had to be left behind Nevertheless, the proposed method sounds good to me

Ooh, computer withdrawal. I feel for you. Good luck with the renovation.

One question: should I suppress the popup on CLI operation, and if so, use the container or ES frame rate?

Hehe, must be the longest time without a (personal) computer since my C64 broke down some time in the late 80s. "Fortunately" I work in IT, so it's still pretty much a 8/5 thing all week anyway.

I vote for suppressing the popup and using the ES frame rate. I'd say that works correctly in 99,5% of the cases.

OK then, so be it.

"since my C64 broke down"

You made me choke on my acorn!
