The following may not all be mplayer related, but I'm hoping I can get some advice from users here as well. I have a DVD where, when I use -dumpstream on it, results in a vob where, about 2/3rds of the way through the movie, the time code resets (amusingly enough at a scene that display a big REBOOT). This also happens if I copy out the vob using libdvdnav's menus.c example code. When I play the track using mplayer dvdnav://30 (on the disc in question, I must use dvdnav: as dvd: does not work), it displays the time code accurately. But on the dumped stream, -osdlevel 3 shows the movie to end around 1:10 or so, but actuallky plays a bit longer than that, then starts the counter down at 0:00 again. When I use a tool like ccextractor on the vob (http://ccextractor.sf.net) to dump a .srt file, it displays a message like: 73% | 70:53 Warning: Reference clock has changed abruptly (-4303 seconds), attempting to syn chronize Last sync PTS value: 387294997 Current PTS value: 17607 Well, ccextractor fixes the timestamps on the closed captioning, but of course, when I play back the vob using the .srt file, the last 3rd of the movie is all out of whack (instead redisplaying the ones from earlier in the movie). So, I would like to either have the ability to fix the vob or to avoid the problem in the first place. I'm guessing that mplayer's dumpstream (at least for dvd's) is pretty much the same as the menus.c example: Just take the packets from libdvdnav and put them straight to disk, with no mpeg2 processing at all. >From what I understand, mencoder's tsaf option might work, but that would mean processing the .vob multiple times, once for each video and audio track, then remuxing them. Or am I misreading the man page? In some research that I've done, it looks like a Windows tool named VideoRedo has a Quick Stream Fix facility would fixup the reference clock on streams like this, But I have not, as yet, been able to find a tool that would work on unix. For the most part, I'm pretty happy with mplayer's -dumpstream facility. If I'm missing something here, though, it'd be great to figure out what it was. Any anyone has any recommendations on how to solve this problem, I'd be appreciative. mrc _______________________________________________ MPlayer-users mailing list MPlayer-users@xxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users
