I've a little problem playing the video recorded by my full hd camcorder (Sony CX130) on my LE32B650 tv (FW T-CHL7DEUC-2005.0): I'm able to watch the video but I'm not able to listen to the audio (I use the tv speakers, I don't have any external system). I've the problem playing the video both from USB and from NFS mount.
The video format produced by the camcorder is AVCHD (H264+AC3 in a TS container) as repoted by ffmpeg on my computer:

Code: Select all

Input #0, mpegts, from 'arrivo-states.ts':
  Duration: 00:00:33.28, start: 1.000033, bitrate: 16561 kb/s
  Program 1 
    Stream #0:0[0x1011]: Video: h264 (High) (HDMV / 0x564D4448), yuv420p, 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 50 fps, 50 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
    Stream #0:1[0x1100]: Audio: ac3 (AC-3 / 0x332D4341), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 256 kb/s
    Stream #0:2[0x1200]: Subtitle: hdmv_pgs_subtitle ([144][0][0][0] / 0x0090)

I've tried to debug the problem via ex-link console. I report below the output during the video playing:

Code: Select all

As far as i know both H264 and AC3 are supported by my tv and I don't see any relevant error message.
What could cause my audio problem? Is it possible to play AC3 audio usign the tv speakers?

I've decide to try a different way, change the container from M2TS to MKV with the command below:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i 00132.MTS -scodec copy -acodec copy -vcodec copy -f matroska 00132.MKV

Now the tv are able to play both the audio and the video streams.
But I don't understand why it plays. The audio stream is the same... I've used the "copy codec"!

After remuxing, a new problem is raised: the tv doesn't show the subtitles from the MKV file.
Have I missed any ffmpeg options?

Here is the MVK info:

Yes, you`re on the right way. This is because of audio identifiers. TV selects to play first audio ID and if here is just ID witout audio, then no sound. This is known since B series PVR recordings.

Try to load DCA module first. It solved my problem with audio from TS files not being played.

Good luck!

First audio ID without audio? I can see no big differences:

Code: Select all

TS file                        | MKV file
-------------------------------+------------------------------
Stream #0:0[0x1011]: video     | Track UID: 1 - video
Stream #0:1[0x1100]: audio     | Track UID: 2 - audio
Stream #0:2[0x1200]: subtitles | Track UID: 3 - subtitles

There is only one audio track in both files and audio is the second track after video track.
You mean stream ID is wrong? TS has ID 1 (or 0x1100) and MKV has ID 2. Is this the clue?
I am asking because maybe there is a way to fix somehow PVR recordings made by PVR+.
