New DVB subtitle filter (TsReader based) (3 Viewers)

[tourettes]

A clerification might be in order. I can't se any subs in that recording

Thanks for providing the test .ts file. I'll try to have a look later on today what's causing the issue.

I'm submitting a recording a made from canal + wich should have several subtitles stream. Since I have no file server of my own I had to use a comersial one. I hope you will wait for the download to start.

I'll asked High to see why the FTP account is not working as it's much easier for you guys to use FTP account to provide those .ts samples.

One more bug-report:

When viewing TV and pausing for ~10 minutes or more the playback fails to resume correctly. Logs attached. Note: Program did not contain subtitles.

I haven't noteced that one (I haven't been able to test single seat actually that much, mostly the .ts samples and some live tv in multiseat). Could you try to reprodce the issue in multiseat environment?

Tonight I've been watching a couple of live broadcasts and recordings, and I sometimes get garbled frames (looks like bad reception, but it is not), it lasts many seconds and are typically not seen when seeking back and watching the part again. I guess there is some kind of data corruption going on related to the subtitle filter.

I have fixed one issue in the TsReader modifications that was causing at least video stream to get corrupted sometimes. Let's see if the next version of binaries is curing the issue you were seeing.

FTP account for uploading the .ts files should be again working (thanks High). See the first post in this thread for login details. Notice that the password has been changed!

According to VLC this .ts sample contains only teletext subtitle PID. That's why you weren't able to see any subtitles. Currently the filter supports only DVB subtitles and not the teletext based subtitles.

Hi

I have tried to register the new subtitle filter, but now Mediaportal won't work. I have followed the instruction, but now I get this exception log:

ExceptionType: System.ArgumentException
Message: Værdien falder ikke inden for det forventede område.
Source: mscorlib

Stack trace:
ved System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IRunningObjectTable.Revoke(Int32 dwRegister)
ved DirectShowLib.DsROTEntry.Dispose()
ved DirectShowLib.DsROTEntry.Finalize()

Any suggestions?

Sorry - my mistake. I haven't noticed, that the subtitle entry was already made in Mediaportal.xml.

Have tested the subtitle filter now but like other have experienced it hangs when switching channels. The timing seems to work fine though.

Good to hear that the timing is working as it was the main issue with the previous filter..

Unfortunately, I don't see perfect timing. I am currently uploading a sample to the ftp "TV 2 Denmark (delayed subs).ts", where minor delays are present (at least when I view the recording). This sample is well suited to show the delays, but I generally see these delays both in recordings and timeshifted tv (although the delays don't bother me much).

03-08-2007 09:41:39 Too old timestamp! - diff was 1821 ms

03-08-2007 09:41:56 Too old timestamp! - diff was 2547 ms

Looks like the subtitle packets are arriving too late to the subtitle filter. No ideas currently why it's happening.

Looks like the subtitle data is arriving too late to the subtitle filter. Currently I don't have any clues why it might be happening. Previously there was a bug in the subtitle filters PES decoder, but it shouldn't be causing any troubke anymore.

Hmpf, looks like it's happening with other .ts samples as well. I'll try to release a new binaries for TsReader.ax and DVBSub2.ax this morning (with some important fixes). After that I'll try to see if I manage to find out what's delaying those PES packets to be ready.

Should be fixed (or at least a lot better) in the version 2. Binaries have been updated, see the first post.
