dub is not my choice of wording. It is an old commercial VHS tape the LG DVD player calls playing a VHS tape and recording it to DVD at the same time as Dubbing that's not what I would call it So not quite disaster recovery but an attempt to conserve a diminishing resource. I am using Filmora as th...

Mac DVD player says NTSC and plays it just fine. The fly in the ointment is that the original tape has been "dubbed" to a DVD and either the tape has bad motor noise in the background or the dubbing adds the motor noise to the DVD audio. I want to split the VOB into audio and video copy the audio de...

turned audacity reading into PAL frames 22,226 approximate back calculating with 15 minutes comes up with 24.69 frames per second using 15.05 minutes is not much better something seems amiss : ( what was supposed to be an easy pop the vob fix the sound job has turned into a quagmire. Need to try to ...

it is an 40 year old BBC production the Filmora reading seems to be in PAL frames (count 25 frames for each second in timeline display) 00:15:03:10 in PAL frames 25 fps when I switch units in Audacity to PAL frames it reads 00:14:49:01 still no match up and not much different that the 00:14:49:00 re...

long time no squeak When I view VOB_01_01 in Filmora on my mac the sound comes in at 00:15:03:10 when I open VOB_01_01 in Audacity 2.0.3 the sound comes in at 00:14:49:00 (NTSC drop frames) a difference of around 4 seconds 00:00:04:10 Where am I going wrong? Shouldn;t they be the same / closer?

ok looked at FFmpeg and 180 page ATSC documentation so is simpler and not so simple. There is Left Center Right Left Surround Right Surround Low Frequency Effects. I plan to drop LFE and smoosh the others into 2 tracks following suggestions given earlier. The best way would seem to be to master the ...

Thanks very much for your help. Am using the FFmpeg library to split the AC3 file. only see six tracks not seven. looks like first(top) is L/R second is L/R third is C enter fourth has a silent solo +/- 0.1 fifth has music sixth has music the movie is Blues Brothers, so car chases and maybe an explo...

I am not trying to do anything fancy Yes, you are. You happen to have a program line-up that makes it look easy. Koz We have different ideas about easy. Easy to me is here are 6 tracks in this AC3 file, do you want to output mono, stereo or same number of tracks as source? I guess I worry mac3dec >...

"Your tracks will be mixed down to a single mono channel in the exported file" That's because all of your tracks are mono. In my previous post I described how to create a stereo mix down. On the other hand, the choices on FFmpeg export are beyond bewildering. As I wrote previously, you don't need t...

here is as far as I get when exporting as apple aiff "Your tracks will be mixed down to a single mono channel in the exported file" On the other hand, the choices on FFmpeg export are beyond bewildering. There are formats: "aiff" is one 12 codecs and 10 general options nothing that says stereo aiff ...
