No Sound at some mkv files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, i hope you can help. Sorry for my english. ^^

If i want play a mkv which is create with mkvmerge 4.1.0 or higher i hear no 
sound. with the select button from the ps3 it shows no audio details.

The problem is the "header removal compression" which use at the new versions.

The same issue cause some files to be reported by the PS3 as "Corrupted data" 
or "Data unsupported" and playback never starts.

I could fix this problem by updating the included mencoder.exe and 
mencoder_mt.exe with the latest version avaiable right now 
(MPlayer-p4-svn-32735 and MPlayer-p4-svn-32735-mt from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mplayer-win32/files/). But it causes another 
issue to arise, subtitles do no work with the latest mencoder :S

The other way to fix it is to remux the problematic files, but it is tedious 
and as MKV points out, the problem lies in the player... the header compression 
is a feature that should be supported as it is part of MKV specifications !

Oh.. the issue with subtitles when using this updated version of mencoder lies 
in ASS/SSA support. I don't know how to fix it, so I just disabled it in PS3 
Media Server settings by unticking "ASS/SSA Subtitles" in the "Transcoding 
Settings" tab for "mencoder", hope this helps and I with ASS/SSA could be fixed 
as the rendering of subtitles with this feature is better and more flexible.

Thanks for the update mr.icepick,updating mencoder.exe works fine, however, i 
can't find the mencoder_mt.exe file in "MPlayer-p4-svn-32735-mt" but the ps3 
mediaserver works fine except after disabling ASS/SSA subtitles in ps3 mencoder 
settings, the subtitles are quit big. Do you or someone else have a solution 
for that? Thanks in advance for your help with this.
