[REQUEST] External Audio [.ac3] [.dts] - pablolite - 2010-01-20 Hello, Im Sure, in many countries, people do not watch movies in English. Unfortunately, in many cases, other audio is included in separate files: .ac3 or .dts. I'm not a programmer, but i build a little bash script. First, I search the files ac3 and dts find \ media \ sdb1 \ Films-name \ *. ac3 find \ media \ sdb1 \ Films-name \ *. dts Then use the script: Code: #!/bin/bash Unfortunately, on ION platform takes a long time (and you need keyboard or telnet). Q1. Is it possible to write a script that would "see" external files AC3/DTS and told them to play without muxing?... Q2. ...Alternatively, the script for XBMC, which displays a list of all directories (films), which contains the files *. ac3 and *. dts, and ask which of them to muxing. Something like that: Im waiting for response Regards, Pawel ps. sorry for my ugly english - pablolite - 2010-01-22 Ok, perhaps I wrote too much. Please answer me for one question: Is it possible to write simple a plugin/script for playing external files AC3/DTS with MKV videos in the same time? Regards, Pawel - althekiller - 2010-01-22 No, xbmc doesn't support external audio streams at all. You'd have to remux them into the container externally. - pablolite - 2010-01-22 Thanks for your reply. So... the script to help muxing, makes sense. I will try to learn python and write it! Maybe half a year will be enough for me. Pawel ps. I understand that the restriction is the internal xbmc player? plug-ins not help? - darwin - 2010-06-22 pablolite Wrote:I will try to learn python and write it! Maybe half a year will be enough for me. The multi-language python remuxing plugin seems pretty complicated compared to the ability to select an external file, but the ability to select an external file would have to be patched into the internal xbmc player, as you say. You'd have to learn C++ to add this functionality to the internal player, not python. I appreciate your enthusiasm and share your interest in such a feature! =darwin - isamu.dragon - 2010-06-24 try using mkvtoolnix to mux it together, if the files are already present then it should take 60sec. tops |
