Fix Blu-Ray File Import Structure
cncb:
Can someone help me with digital audio passthrough with ffdshow/CCCP? I have DTS checked and "Same as input" for the ffdshow audio options using HDMI (1.3) output to an AVR. I have a MKV made from a Blu-ray with both DTS-HD and standard DTS audio tracks. All I get is a stereo signal to my AVR when selecting either track. I tried a different DVD with DTS sound and still only get stereo output (but do get DTS output when I remove ffdshow as a filter). Any tips to get this working? Thanks.

Ripping to MKV will work the best, since it allows native playback inside Media Center.

I am using DVDfab to "copy" the disk to folder. This gives me an exact backup copy of the DVD. I am also using the AutoMeta Plugin to grab the covers, movie description, actors, etc, etc. I have the playback options set up to pass the movie off to TotalTheater 5 for playback. No setting up fliters, codecs etc. I realize there is a lot for JR to work on re:Blu-ray. But at the very least let's get the folder structure import problem fixed. I can handle the playback on my own until JR gets around to beefing up their whole Blu-Ray process.

I use FFDshow for all HD video decode (h.264/AVC->ffmpeg-mt, VC1->WMV9, MPEG2->libavcodec). Not a single problem to report here. The MPC video decoder has issues, especially with VC1 (single-threaded).
Not that it matters, but I'm using the LAVF splitter and audio decoder.

Hi Mike,
My problem is not the ripping it's what MC is doing with the folder contents once ripped.

Well, I've only been testing it for a week or so. The splitter is not as reliable as Haali Media Splitter with MC, but the new-ish audio decoder appears to work quite well for what it supports so far. My interest initially was the lightweight audio decoder (compared to ffdshow). It would take some work to get any more light weight and reliable than the HMS, however. Not that it matters so much to the end user, but the LAVF splitter is open-source and the HMS is not, fwiw.

I would like to playback with an external player such as Total Media Theater since it's strong suite is just video. I hope this gets addressed. Many folks contributed significant comments on this thread. Right now I'd just like to see MC properly handle the folder structure. Playback/rip, etc can be dealt with later. As it stands now the Blu-Ray file import is broken.
