Does that happen if you try --mp4?
gave it a try just now, and yes it seems to
I still get the following, when using --mp4
:
[auto_aresample_0 @ 0x7fa9a400dc80] ch:8 chl:7.1 fmt:s32 r:48000Hz -> ch:5 chl:5.0(side) fmt:fltp r:48000Hz
I don't have that Blu-ray, but is there a digital copy or something else on it that might offer a different audio track that you could target using MakeMKV? If I remember correctly, MakeMKV doesn't allow older versions to work, so my first idea is to determine whether the issue is isolated to ffmpeg or whether MakeMKV could be involved. I'm using a Mac, so it's fairly trivial to use version 4 instead of 5 of ffmpeg. Could you also try that?
I'll have a closer look at the discs to see if there was an audio track I missed somehow.

Can you elaborate on this? Are you saying older versions of ffmpeg are incompatible with MakeMKV's output?
I'm currently using ffmpeg 5.1.2
@zcutlip I think you're seeing a bug that I fixed in the latest version of the other_video_transcoding
Gem.
What version of other-transcode
are you using?
MakeMKV generally disables the license key for any version other than current. I was suggesting using the ffmpeg command included in your log with ffmpeg 4 rather than ffmpeg 5. Both are available, I think. but Don has taken this on, so no more worries. :)
@donmelton that appears to have done the trick. I was on 0.11 and upgrading to 0.12 get's me the following expected output in the log (I haven't tried a full transcode):
[auto_aresample_0 @ 0x7fb43201bf40] ch:8 chl:7.1 fmt:s32 r:48000Hz -> ch:6 chl:5.1(side) fmt:fltp r:48000Hz
Thanks!
@zcutlip You are very welcome! I'm glad that was the issue.
I will close this out now.
for anyone who comes along later, re-encoding these with the corrected channel layout also fixed an issue where Plex + Apple TV down mixing for headphones caused most of the dialogue to come through the right channel đ
@zcutlip Good to know and thank for the update! đ
I have a few recent rips from MakeMKV where the audio is getting converted to a 5.0(side) layout rather than a 5.1(side) layout.
I believe this is the first time I've encountered this. I'm sure the problem is on my end, probably something to do with how I ripped the disc, but I can't figure out what it would be.
I'm getting this in the ffmpeg log:
Here's what it the log has to say about the input stream:
In case it matters, this is happening with a recently purchased Matrix box set. It seems to be happening both versions (HD & UHD) of each of the first three films. I already had the 4th film ripped, so I don't know if it would have been affected or not.
I've attached the ffmpeg log generated by
other-transcode
