It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - dgktkr - 2015-06-21 At some DVD scene changes, there is a short (less than 1 second) buzz. This seems to fit a description of a bug that was apparently fixed some on 11/17/13: http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/14313 and http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=161109. On my current setup, Kodi 15.0 Beta 2 ( OS-X 10.10.3), with "The Last of the Mohicans" the annoying buzz occurs with AC3 5.1 and AC3 stereo, but with DTS 5.1 there is sometimes a barely noticeable thump or dropout (no buzz) at the same location. It's hard to detect and easy to ignore. Here is the log around the time a buzz occurred at 16:29:33: Code: ... Is anyone else noticing this? dgktkr It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - Memphiz - 2015-06-21 this looks like a corrupted stream as of the ffmpeg errors. Lets see if anyone else has this kind of problems (i for myseld don't...). RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-06-23 Yes, I have this problem as well. I have verified it on Kodi 14.0 and Kodi 14.2. It is repeatable. It is occurring on two Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 boxes (both 32 and 64 bit), and also an ATV2. The movie is a straight rip from a DVD (no compression), maintaining the VIDEO_TS structure on hard drive, i.e. I am playing the VIDEO_TS.IFO file. One of the Windows 7 boxes (64 bit) is running Kodi 14.2 (March 26, 2015) installation with VIDEO_TS files local, and using onboard sound. 10:25:41 T:3980 ERROR: ffmpeg[F8C]: [ac3] incomplete frame 10:25:41 T:3980 ERROR: ffmpeg[F8C]: [ac3] frame sync error 10:25:41 T:3980 ERROR: CDVDPlayerAudio:ecodeFrame - Decode Error.

The problem is also occurring in other ripped DVDs I have also updated my graphics and sound drivers to the latest. RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-06-26 Anyone? RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - aky75 - 2015-06-29 Happens to me since XBMC 11. Always on chapter changes. Both with original or ripped DVDs RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-13 Is there anyone on the development team that can look into this, or some way to get this issue investigated? Any help would be appreciated. RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - Memphiz - 2015-07-14 It seems highly dependend to the used audio equipment. Unlikely that this will be solved without someone in the team having the same problem. (which is not the case i think). RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-14 Thank you- but this issue is also occuring on PCs that are not connected to external audio equipment. The issues do show up in the log files as skipping packets. The same video files can be played in VLC without issue. It is not an isolated issue (i.e. a single movie). It occurs on multiple ripped DVDs (recent and older). RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - Memphiz - 2015-07-14 Can you somehow provide a short sample (50 - 100 MB) via dropbox which shows this behavior? RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-14 I am currently traveling, but can upload whatever is required when I return (Thursday). Unfortunately, I think i would need to upload an entire ripped DVD structure (5G+) to be evaluated. Unless you are just looking for a short audio snip of what it sounds like when the issue occurs- Please advise- RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - Memphiz - 2015-07-14 No we need a short sample which shows the error (maybe cut out with some video editing tool or so). We are not interested in 5G samples or in a recording of the "blipp" sadly RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-14 Unfortunately, I know of no tools which would allow me to cut a piece of video/audio out of a full DVD (VIDEO_TS) file structure, and store it in a DVD file structure. All tools i know of will extract pieces of the video/audio, and transcode, etc (create .avis, etc). Hence the video and audio streams will be modified. Since this problem (for me) is only apparent on playing ripped full DVD file structures, I think you will need the full unmodified full-DVD file structure to best try to reproduce. Unfortunately, these are in the GB size range- I dont know of any other way to recreate with a small sample- RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-15 And thank you for looking into this- it has been driving me crazy. It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - Memphiz - 2015-07-15 are you sure your dvd reader isn't flawed? Do you have a different pc where you could try to rip a dvd? RE: It's back -- short DVD buzz on scene changes? - WannaTheater - 2015-07-15 Good point- I will verify by ripping on another DVD drive. As anothrt point, I believe another user (in this thread) stated that this happens to him while playing physical DVDs. |
