handbrake yields a file with length 01:23:34.03 makemkv: 01:23:32.52 dvd advertises as 1:23:28.166 actual wall time appeared to be around 1:23:31'ish [?] so makemkv may actually be closest So it appears in this case the DVD uses 29.97 fps MPEG stream, but then rounds the MPEG NAV packets' times *dow...

I'd be happy to donate to makemkv if this odd timing issue were resolved (makemkv sometimes reports a total time slightly too high, see above). I'd be happy to send a test DVD. Anything!

Until then I can't recommend makemkv to my users I guess.
Thanks.

I'd buy makeMKV if they accepted fairy dust <hint hint>.

so makemkv bills itself as a "straight" copy so...it will include all the telecined frames by default. I guess you'll need to use another program to combine them I guess (mplayer pullup comes to mind).

Which files don't play with it? What do you use to stream it from within ps3ms? Seems like it's either a bug in those programs, or in makemkv

When I re-encode them with another program that allows me to view the video frame by frame, I can literally see the duplicate and/or telecine frames and must run them thru an avisynth plugin to deinterlace them to get true 23.976 fps progressive output. Most DVD's I work with are TV shows and lots ...

So when i convert\encode the mkv with a 3rd party application i get a video that plays too fast because of MakeMKV error with the fps, i have to manually set the fps in the 3rd party application. VLC probably plays it fine, which would seem to imply that the 3rd party application isn't handling it ...

As far as I know, most NTSC DVD's are encoded at 29.970 fps. I think "most" NTSC DVD's are progressive (i.e. true 23.97 fps), and rely on the DVD player to convert them. You can tell by running them in mplayer http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-telecine.html If it says demux_m...

What database would you use?

Hello. It might be nicer to show drive letters/volume labels in the disk selector dropdown instead of hardware specifics--would make selecting the right drive slightly more user friendly (we users don't care about hardware specifics as much as "does this have the DVD I want in it"). Also w...

I've discovered some other oddities. I'd be happy to send you original DVD's for these odd cases. "typically" the mkv title length is (DVD_time*29.97/30). Also if you use tsmuxer and extract a .ts stream, it has the same length. Example: Other Side of Heaven DVD. "sometimes" the ...

Hello all. I've also noticed that makemkv "total times" for DVD rips don't always seem to add up to the original DVD title times. "Typically" the makemkv output file corresponds to 29.97 fps (compared to 30 fps the commercial DVD player sum says). Ex: commercial dvd player says t...
