Multiple audio : Merge started

[Jan Gruuthuse]

Brief tests confirms this to work. copy 1 track, re-encode 2 tracks from mpeg audio to ac3.

[zakk]

Did 2 small tests with mp2 to mp3 and eac3 copy (1 or 2 tracks). Seems to work great!
At the moment, is mp3 encoder set to stereo, joint stereo or mono?
Congratulations and thanks.

I'm stoked you guys are getting good results.  I still have a build error in Qt, but I was going to let it stew for a bit to see if they patch it.

[Jan Gruuthuse]

You loaded the other libraries to? libqt4-dev libqt4-opengl-dev
and the new ones: libopencore-amrwb-dev libopencore-amrnb-dev For the wiki maybe? Agent_007
could be this one is not needed:  libdts-dev

If you know of still missing/needed libraries, please let me know.

[Agent_007]

I can test the build process during Easter with Ubuntu if someone provides me the commands. I can also add the to wiki after that.

[Jan Gruuthuse]

Now with trackinfo showing, just what is needed, thanks.

[zakk]

Just encoded dual audio mp3: works! Thanks a lot.

[mean]

external audio should work now
Only ac3/mp3 supported, only mp3 tested

[Jan Gruuthuse]

More testing required:
With .ts as source adding external .mp3 does nothing, it only set unmarked channels back to marked and keeps original audio tracks.
With avi to mp4 adding second audio track from mp3 works.
Had a quick look around and could not find directly a summary with what audio codecs support multiple audio tracks with what video codecs in what media containers (format).
If someone has a list or matrix with this info?

[styrol]

Had a quick look around and could not find directly a summary with what audio codecs support multiple audio tracks with what video codecs in what media containers (format).

What compliance to standards and compatibility to players is concerned:

MP4: 2 AAC tracks  (usually in combination with MPEG-4 ASP or MPEG-4 AVC)
AVI: 2 MP3 tracks (usually in combination with MPEG-4 ASP)
MKV: multiple audio tracks and if you wanna use non standard audio track format

[Evil_Burrito]

should be okay now (encoding several tracks)

Most excellent. You can check that major feature off the to-do list.

[zakk]

Warning: At least r7895 displays "Frame type: P-TFF" for I frames also (bottom of Avidemux window), which can make clean cutting difficult. (my last version r7745 does show I-frame correctly).

[mean]

The audio parsers are not hooked, the files generated might be a bit borked (it depends on the muxer)
That also explains why local playback is not working properly
