Could you please download MediaInfo, open the file you tried to convert with it and post the information from the Text tab. Ty.

I hope this helps. I also might add that I'm on a vista 64 bit system if that may pose a problem.

I'm afraid I'm going on a holiday, so I can't take a proper look until I get back, however as that file has softsubs, you'll have to end up using type 3. As far as Vista x64 is concerned I have no clue.

1. Required Software
- MKVExtractGUI
- mkvtoolnix
- VSFilter (part of CCCP, so you should have it already)
- PS3 Video 9 (similar tools might also work for other systems such as PSP or Wii)
- AviSynth (optional - also included in PS3 Video 9!)

The first three files are only necessary if the file you are trying to convert MKV files with soft subtitles.

2. Extracting the subtitles
If the file has soft subtitles, you need to extract the subtitles first using MKVExtractGUI. Make sure you put MKVExtractGUI in the same folder as mkvtoolnix (C:\Program Files\mkvtoolnix by default) btw.

The subtitle file (shown as S_TEXT/ASS for styled subtitles or S_TEXT/UTF8 for plain subtitles) will be put in the same folder as the video file.

Note: some MKV files also include fonts. You may need to extract and install the fonts (using the Control Panel) in order for the styled subtitles to look just the way they're supposed to look.

3. Write the AVS (AviSynth) file
This is the hard part: writing the AVS file. Actually the hard part is getting the folders and filenames just right (this could be tricky if the file has a complicated filename and is in a folder a few levels deep). Btw, an AVS file is simply a text file with a .AVS file extension.

Write a AVS file that looks like this:
Of course make sure all the paths and filenames are changed to whatever file you want to convert. TIP: right click and select "Rename" on the file you want the filename of, and then press CTRL-C to copy the filename to the clipboard. Then just press CTRL-V to paste the filename in Notepad.

If the MKV file you want to convert does not contain subtitles (in case they're already encoded in the video) leave out line 1 ("LoadPlugin") and line 3 ("TextSub") and keep just line 2 ("DirectShowSource").

Before converting, verify the AVS file works by opening it in MPC (Media Player Classic). If you get a AviSynth error message, you'll need to fix the AVS file.

4. Convert with PS3 Video 9
I'm not going to explain the usage of PS3 Video 9 here, as it's pretty simple. Also you'll need to test for yourself which conversion profile works best for you. But if you have followed the steps above, you should be able to convert the MKV file just like you would any AVI file.

If you need a hint: select "Convert", then "Current conversion" tab. Then just click the "Convert video" button and select the AVS file you just created.

Optional hint
If you go to Start -> Programs -> Combined Community Codec Pack -> Media Splitter Settings and then under the Options tab enable "Autoload VSFilter" (in Compatibility section), you might be able to skip the whole MKVExtractGUI phase! You probably still need to write the AVS file, but you can get away with just the "DirectShowSource" line (and leave out the others).

Disclaimer
I have neither a PS3 nor a Xbox 360, so I can't test this. But I did succesfully convert various files to PSP format (using PSP Video 9) this way.

The conversion works and the subs are kept after converting. However I encountered another problem. There appears to be 2 lines of subtitles(same subs, but they appear twice). Any way to remedy this? Thanks in advance

Edit: I am converting with Red Kawa's iPod Touch Converter.

Edit2: I tried converting another video: [gg-TakaJun]_Kara_no_Kyoukai_-_The_Garden_of_Sinners_-_04_[B2465A9B].mkv

Previously I had headaches with other conversion software due to the fact some took very long to convert, or that they can't hardcode softsubs. Right now I'd like to do it so that I could watch my shows either on a portable player or a DVD player with a DivX hardware codec.

However, I found a way to get it right this time. As Any Video Converter (Windows) uses the Mplayer/Mencode engine under the hood, it's possible to use some command switches (and a bit of tweaking) to get a proper conversion job. Makes it possible to finally watch what I love while on the go. xD

To configure AVC for converting softsubbed MKV to AVI (or just about any type video) with properly-sized hardsubs (including Japanese kanji):

1.) Open C:\Program Files\Any Video Converter\mplayer
2.) Rename (or delete) the default subtitle font, as it looks too blocky IMHO.
3.) Copy Arial Unicode MS (or any Unicode-compliant font) to the folder and rename it as 'subfont' (Why that even if I had specified the correct font name, Mencoder ignored the switch and used the default font instead).
4.) Now go to Start > All Programs > Any Video Converter and open the program (or via desktop shortcut). Then go to Edit > Options. In the Additional MPlayer/Mencoder options add these:

-subfont-text-scale 3 -unicode

The text scale (size; acceptable sizes can be from 1-100) can be adjusted according to your needs. -Unicode tells mencoder to recognize the embedded softsubs as Unicode.
5.) Save the settings by pressing Ok

You may try to test the resulting output/conversion by first loading an MKV file and playing it on the preview screen.

Notes: Your results may vary, depending on the encoding setup and methods used by the subbers.

martino · 2009-01-28, 10:11

NB: Mencoder will ignore ASS/SSA styling and use its default settings for that. In other words, it'll look like an ASS/SSA -> SRT conversion. Also knowing that libass does not support many ASS tags, the lines might not be rendered at all, or will be just put as a simple dialogue line (that is if Mencoder does use libass at all and not some other, lower class, renderer).

mencoder --ass --sid x etc etc (it's not really magic...)

Ok, I understand that using the Mencoder engine keeps things simple than fancy. All I just need was the subtitles, and if in case I run into trouble into certain vids, I'll use mkvtoolnix and other esoterica.

At least I have the modicum of comfort of knowing that everything is possible.

pookakitten · 2009-01-29, 09:21

Been having problems with the script. The file has the correct video and audio codecs to use type 1 (I'm ignoring the subtitles for now).

I think the problem starts with the *_vid_new.mp4 file. The episode is ~25 minutes long, but the mp4 file is about 16 minutes long. The file skips a chunk at the beginning and the action moves faster, like it was encoded at 29 fps instead of 23 fps.

Then at the last encoding step, it gives the error "Error importing bin\truetears1_vid_new.mp4: Bad Parameter"

The cut and paste of the dos prompt output is under the spoiler tags.

Thanks for any help.

Mmmh... currently looking at it. There seems to be something strange going on...

EDIT: Found the problem. Cause is the script which muxes the video and timecodes into an mp4 file. I'll see if I can do something about it.

EDIT2: That's caused by a bug in mkvtoolnix. I suggest you try upgrading, or downgrading. Not sure which ones work and which ones don't. Try this.

Thanks. Can the script handle the multipart mkv files? The ones where the OP and ED are separate files from the episode itself. If not, how do you manually "add" the files together into a bigger file?

EDIT: Thank you. Using that version of MKVtoolnix fixed the problem. Now I'm trying a type 4. Decided to start with a type 1 encode to simplify troubleshooting.

EDIT 2: With the "new" version, it asked for magic1.dll and regex2.dll in addition to the files in the list on the opening post.

No, it can't. The only way to handle those with this script is to re-encode the audio and video.

I found that out. I recommend having only one of the files in the conversion directory at a time. I had both files there and the silly software took the video from the OP, put it in the output file but didn't take the audio, resulting in the audio and video not being sync'd.

I'm using YAMB to split files and splice them together.

Strange, because that should work using AviSynth and DirectShowSource... or at least from what I recall. I mean, if it plays fine in a DirectShow player, like MPC or ZP, then the mentioned approach should work too.

Do you think the Audio/Video being out of sync is due to the splitter? I'm not sure what splitter the person is using, but in the past I've had success with Gabest Splitter for MKV files where Haali Splitter caused out-of-sync results.

Then again, I've had FFmpegsource give me problems and that's a totally self-contained source filter.

martino · 2009-02-05, 21:24

It could be a cause, however Gabest's is probably not out of sync because it probably doesn't even support segment linking (and therefore less things to screw up on).

Hari Michiru · 2009-04-18, 22:45

Hm...I've tried converting via Method 1, but it never seems to work. It says there's an error with the audio, but I don't know what's happening, since the screen just closes afterwards. I've double-checked everything, but I'm doing nothing wrong. By the way, my file is a type 4.

Can anyone help me? =)
