Failed to use AC3 file as audio #2634
Comments
I don't really understand what happens - SE uses VLC to extract audio ( or FFMpeg if chosen in settings, code is here: https://github.com/SubtitleEdit/subtitleedit/blob/master/src/Forms/AddWaveForm.cs ) and VLC uses it's own codecs. You could simulate it by running a cmd line with something like this:
|
Actually I need to mention that I have VLC v2.2.4 also installed, but SE does not show it as installed in "Settings → Video Player" ("VLC media player" is disabled). Maybe I should uninstall it? I don't know how to apply your command, because I don't have video + audio in e.g. MKV as you suppose. I only have one SRT and one AC3. |
VLC is still used for waveform generation (the 32-bit version), but SE needs the 64-bit version in order to show video. About the cmd line, instead of "myvideo.mkv" just use your audio file, e.g. "myaudio.ac3"... Could you possible email me an ac3 file that causes this error? |
When I start the command you've provided, the output file
I have shared AC3 file here (300MB). |
Thx for the file - however it's working fine here for me. |
I have posted a video that shows what is happening at my PC. Perhaps this is a result of unfortunate combination of the installed software :) |
The video explains it nicely :) As an alternative you could change the video player to "mpv". Also, I've included ".ac3" as audio extension in latest beta. |
I have uninstalled VLC and now waveform cannot be generated :( I get this message:
Actually the message is not complete, as alternative is to install It looks like there is some side effect caused by K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. At the moment I cannot uninstall it as I use it heavily, however LAV Splitter is a part of it. On some reason Subtitle Edit does not pick it up. |
Just switch player to mpv - it also rocks :) SE can download the dll file via Options -> Settings -> Video player |
Did you try mpv ? |
I have AC3 track which I would like to use as audio track while editing subtitles.
When I select AC3, the dialog is displayed:
however I have LAV Filters installed. When I close the dialog with OK and click on waveform window, it starts to transform it to wave:
and renders the waveform, however when I press play button, nothing happens.
I tested using
GraphStudioNext64
that comes with K-Lite Codec Pack and it plays given AC3 just fine:Subtitle Edit v3.5.4
LAV Splitter v0.67.0.60
The issue is similar to issue #1982.
