DVD-Audiofile Help
« on: August 08, 2008, 09:30:24 AM »
I am trying to make dvda's of some of my 24/96 recordings and keep running into the same problem. I open Dvdaudiofile and drag and drop the flac's in hit create iso it works for just a second and makes an image that is only a few megs. I tried re encoding the flacs but every time same thing. When I droped the wav files in it made a 3 gig file with an image and dvd folder but when trying to burn with imgtool I get this error

AUDIO_TS dir is not present, try to create one...
VIDEO_TS dir is not present, try to create one...
==============================
building VIDEO_TS Tree...
==============================
Error: Missing needed file: "VIDEO_TS.IFO" ==> BREAK!

Anyone see what I am doing wrong? Any idea why the flac's wont run through all the way.  Thanks

The FLAC files probably don't process because you are using the latest version of FLAC (v1.2.1), and, as far as I know, DVD-Audiofile hasn't been updated with the version of FLAC, so it has problems with 24 bit files encoded with the v1.2.1.

Hi,

DVD-Audiofile is a frontend for a command-line application called dvda-author, originally written by Dave Chapman in 2005.

Until recently dvda-author did not process FLAC 1.2.1 files. This has been fixed with version 08.07, which you can download from http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net

If you use Linux, you can also try version 08.08-dev, which I released yesterday. Among other goodies, version 08.08 processes Ogg FLAC and integrates a modded version of TS 'fixwav' header repair tool, originally written by member pigiron.

To continue using DVD-Audiofile as before, simply drop the new executable  in the DVD-Audiofile file tree, in the same place as the 2005 version, possibly renaming it as it used to be if I changed the name in the meantime.

Best,

Fabrice Nicol

Scott's app's current version 0.42 (which is available on Jason's 24-bit turtleside webpage) is unfortunately "bundled", i.e, the executable comprises both the interface and Dave Chapman's command-line tool. Unless I'm mistaken, I remember that a previous release of DVD-Audiofile kept the binaries separated, which is a better option. Perhaps you could request a "de-bundled" GUI from Scott, and then replace the original dvda-author binary  with the new one.
Best, Fab

it's actually all in a jar file, so you can get to it.  I swapped it out and changed the version number:


http://satellite.epix.net/~scb/dvd-audiofile/DVD-Audiofile%200.50win.zip

let me know if that works

Scott I tried .50 as is and it did the same worked for a second and said it was done. The iso was 15 megs. Was I supposed to replace the files in the program myself or did you already do it for us? If I need to can you tell me what files to change and where they are. I am not that great with this advanced stuff at least its advanced to me. Thanks for all the help

There must have been an issue when Scott swapped the command line tool executables comprised within his wrap-up .exe

Besides, I happened to bump into another issue, probably unrelated, trying DVD-Audiofile with a 24/96 test file. I got "the files in the list must match in sample rate and size. You tried to add a 24bit/96000 Hz file" while dvda-author did its job all right on command line.

Scott, could you possibly give your app a twist so that it unzips with a \bin subfolder, with mkisofs and dvda-author-08.07 in it ? Your main executable would launch the binaries under \bin when necessary. This would ease the upgrading process both for authors and users. Thanks in advance for this.

For all intents and purposes, I just uploaded a new Windows installer on the DVD-Audio tools webpage. It's just a slight twist, but it may come in handy. Now, when you click on the Windows menu link (START -> Programs ->dvda-author-08.07 -> dvda-author) (orange DVD-A icon) a command-line console opens. Just type in:

dvda-author  -i (full path to your soundfiles directory) -o (full path to your output DVD directory)

example :

dvda-author -i C:\soundfiles  -o  C:\DVD-A

Your soundfiles directory should be organized with subfolders g1, g2, ... etc, g9, for group 1, group 2, ... group 9 (put in as many gN as there should be groups in your DVD-A).

There should only be subfolders g1, etc, in your soundfiles directory, without any extra material. In each g1, g2, etc, just put in your audio files.

example:

C:\soundfiles\g1\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g1\file2.flac
C:\soundfiles\g1\file3.wav
C:\soundfiles\g2\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g3\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g3\file2.flac

what kind of files did you try?  what format, and what bit/sample rate?

I swapped the versions and tested on a few 24/96 flac files and it made a 500 meg iso.  I didn't test anything else, though.  I can try a few more tomorrow if i get a few minutes of downtime at work

Edit: it actually was a 24/96 file, sorry for this. Issue still remains, however.

you got that with just 1 file?  i put a check in to make sure you can't add files of different sample rates into 1 group

Yes, just one file. Incidentally, dvda-author automatically creates a new title when sample rates of contiguous files differ. You do not need to change groups when audio characteristics change: creating a new title is just enough, and dvda-author does it on its own. So I don't think your check is necessary, unless perhaps for practical purposes.

Why don't you just use the 24/96 wave files instead? The resulting ISO is the same size no matter if you use a wave file or a flac file to create it.

dvda-author  -i (full path to your soundfiles directory) -o (full path to your output DVD directory)

example :

dvda-author -i C:\soundfiles  -o  C:\DVD-A

Your soundfiles directory should be organized with subfolders g1, g2, ... etc, g9, for group 1, group 2, ... group 9 (put in as many gN as there should be groups in your DVD-A).

There should only be subfolders g1, etc, in your soundfiles directory, without any extra material. In each g1, g2, etc, just put in your audio files.

example:

C:\soundfiles\g1\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g1\file2.flac
C:\soundfiles\g1\file3.wav
C:\soundfiles\g2\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g3\file1.wav
C:\soundfiles\g3\file2.flac


does the old "-g" method no longer work?

dvda-author.exe -o C:\DVD -g C:\file.wav -g C:\file2.wav

This is uncommon, yet normal.

To better control memory allocation, dvda-author just uses a maximum of about CHAR_BUFSIZ=BUFSIZ/10 characters for filenames. On most modern computers, BUFSIZ (a computer-specific constant) is so large that this value is a good one. Apparently your BUFSIZ constant is quite low (about 480 characters, mine is 20 times higher or so), so your filepaths should not exceed 48 characters, filenames included.
You can circumvent this behavior by recompiling the app:

  a) Launch dvda-author-08.07.workspace under the CB_project subdirectory (you'll need the Code::Blocks IDE, downloadable here: http://prdownload.berlios.de/codeblocks/codeblocks-8.02mingw-setup.exe).

  b) Fill in the menu window:

Project > Build options > (click on 'Release') > click on the #defines tab > CHAR_BUFSIZ=1024

Then:

(top menu) Build > Rebuild

The new executable will be under CB_project > dvda-author > bin > Release

Thanks for the test, Scott.
I'll upload a new build with a higher CHAR_BUFSIZ value on the main website tomorrow.
In the meantime, shortening your paths should do.

wav?  flac?

I tried it with flac as I have read that it works better that way. I have done it with wav's in .47 and it worked and made a large file but I couldnt get img burn to burn it. I had an empty video ts folder and the audio ts folder had all the information in it. I am at a stand still now. I will wait until you guys get it figured out. Again thanks for all the trouble

Imazephed, everything seems to have run OK as far as DVD-Audio authoring is concerned. Apparently you had an issue at the iso-burning stage with img burn, but it may well be an img burn issue. Did you try another burning app like Nero or cdrecord?

08-07 was fixed: 08-08-dev was not.

08-08-dev is a dev version with unstable status.

So 08-07 only is advised for production purposes or integration in other applications, as is mentioned on the webpage. At least until 08-08 has reached stable status, hopefully late September. I'll be patching 08-08 later, with other patches to be applied.

Thanks Scott, it's a minor bug that did not affect DVD authoring, only warnings. Fixed with dvda-author-08.07-4 (build 4), both installer and source.

Scott 5.1 seems to work fine. I used 24 bit flac files and it ran all the way thru no problems and made an iso. Now what do you recommend to burn it with. Its just an iso file no audiots or video ts is the correct? Thanks in advance

ImgBurn is a great piece of freeware for burning disc images (ISO files).

Thanks scott. I could only advise you to upgrade your cygwin1.dll (http://www.student.tugraz.at/thomas.plank/cygwin1.dll_1.5.25_.zip) in your new binaries folder. Also, I did not check, but do you launch mkisofs with the -sort option or with the Dave switch -dvd-audio (as I see you are using the patched version of mkisofs). In the latter case, it's no use putting in the sort.txt file in the binaries folder. I would tend to recommend using the -dvd-audio option, which is hard-coded and probably safer.

There will be updates of dvda-author in weeks to come and users are advised to grab the windows executable and replace the binary in plugins\DVDAudiofile_1.0.0\binaries with the updated tool.

For Windows users, an installer will be made available on http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net and after installation the executable will be placed under (C:\Program Files\dvda-author\)CB_project\dvda-author\bin\Release

Linux/Unix users are advised to recompile from source, currently successful builds have been tested for GNU/Linux, FreeBSD7.0 and Cygwin.

As I don't own a Mac, I'll be grateful if a Mac user could compile the current source code of dvda-author and test it.

Best, Fab

Good news that dvda-author compiles on Mac, thanks for this, scott.

Incidentally, you could get rid of 1 MB in the package: the cygwin1.dll library is only for Windows (normally 'smake' should create native Mac builds for mkisofs, which should run faster than the mkisofs port on Windows).

Hi Scott,
as you may have noticed if you browsed the DVD audio Tools forum, there's a project to add multichannel support to dvda-author. An experimental version S has been devised for tests (not distributed openly yet).

Also, I've added to 08.07 and later versions an option for hybrid-DVD building, which does about the same job as DiscWelder Chrome (you can get to DVD-Video tracks from DVD-Audio tracks and vice-versa with your remote control by just pressing a group number).

I think it would be useful to integrate these features in a GUI, so I've been thinking of writing a Qt interface. However, as there is already your java GUI around, which is portable and pretty functional, another option could be to develop it by adding the new features. I could possibly do part of the job if you're too busy for it just now.

Just tell me what you think -- Best, Fab

tried a disc from this mac version tonight - it saw all the tracks but wouldn't play..not sure why.  might be best to stick with the old version for now

edit: my old version.  i didn't mean the old version of dvd-author.  the new dvda-author may work fine and my GUI might be screwing something up in the new mac version

sure, i'm up for adding new features in.  not sure what the best way to do multi channel is from an interface standpoint, though.

...or it might just as well be an issue with dvda-author.
A good way to know would be to launch a command line and author a DVD-RW for a test.
Also, you could recompile the latest sources ("build 10") from sourceforge  with the fail-safe options:

./configure --enable-flac-build --enable-ogg-build --with-debug=full ; make ; make install

Note that dvda-author may have issues with files > 2 GB, although I have had no report on this so far.

Fine! There's also a Java developer in the forum list who'd like to help out.
The simpler option is just to use the kind of list box interface you developed, using multi-channel wav files authored with Audacity or other software.

There's another change to come too: so far dvda-author has been authoring titles automatically, so what you just had to do was packing up filenames in groups. Commercial sofware ususally enables title authoring, which should be implemented this month I hope. So a list widget would not do actually, unless you can pop up a sub-list for each title listed in a group window, by clicking on the title name. DiscWelder uses tree widgets, but there are other options too.
