Hi,
when my understanding is right, I have to set "UseDolbyDigital" to no, when viewing dvds with non AC3 playback equipment. But with this setting when a recording starts while viewing dvd, there will be no AC3 track recorded.
Shouldn't there be a separate option in the recordings menu for filtering/selecting PIDs to record ?
The DVD plugin should offer both, an MP2 and an AC3 track.
DVD's do not include any MP2 but AC3 tracks ... and sometimes DTS and/or PCM tracks.
DVD's in the PAL/SECAM area can include MP2 (MPEG-1 layer II) tracks, as well: http://www.discusa.com/technology/dvdvideo/dvdvid_audenc.htm
When I create a DVD using vdrconvert, I have the vdrconvert.env settings like this (because I want to keep the DVD small):
--SNIP--
# pids to use DVDUSESTREAMS="apid1:mp2+en apid2:mp2+es" #DVDUSESTREAMS="dpid1:ac3+en apid1:mp2+en apid2:mp2+es"
--SNIP--
I am assuming that this gives me a DVD with two mp2 audio tracks. Before the AC3/DD enhancements were added to vdr, I was able to switch between the two mp2 audio tracks on the DVD using the DVD plugin (while pressing the "1" key on the remote). But, now, with the new AC3/DD additions to vdr, after the DVD plugin detects the available audio tracks, it is unable to select between them.
Best Regards,
