Hi! I would like to report a bug in the mplex program. I was using ffmpeg to convert a pal dvd to ntsc. I got the menus and everything working with dvd(un)author and sp(un)mux. But after all the problems were solved, and the 10 short films were done and the menus all worked perfectly, there was just one film that had weird audio skips, for several seconds at about 1 minute into the 5th film, and then right before the credits roll. It was amazingly stable problem. DVD shrink didn't affect it, changing the bitrate or the maxrate or the bufsize didn't affect it. I had to use dgpulldown simply because ffmpeg wasn't up to the job of changing the framerate smoothly enough.
I tried using audio from another film, and the sound-skipping problem remained in the same place. Anyway, after trying a bunch of stuff, I finally tried muxing with muxman instead of mplex, and the problem went away. I have since also tested ImagoMPEG-Muxer, and that works fine, too. It is a huge relief to have a way to build this DVD without errors, but it was a huge waste of my time trying to figure out what was wrong. I hope you'll be able to fix it. Please let me know if you have any other questions or would like to see some of the input test files I was using. I can recreate them and upload them somewhere or place them where you can download them if you want. But of course even the first 3 minutes of video that I was testing is 55MB. Maybe the vbr algorithm needs a tweak?
