The first cut used a global running clock (max(next, own-PES PTS) + advance),
which fixed the same-PES collision but DRIFTED: once accumulated frame
durations exceeded the PES-timestamp spacing, it never re-based, so a
feature-long DVD DTS track ran minutes past its real length (2h44 for a 2h03
film) while AC-3 from the same source stayed exact.
Match the AC-3 path: re-base to each PES's own container timestamp, and advance
by one frame duration ONLY within a run of AUs sharing one PES. Fixes the DVD
multi-frame-per-PES collision without drift; the UHD DTS-HD MA per-PES
attribution (da85f56) is preserved (each AU still takes its own core PES's PTS).
Adds new_pes_rebases_to_its_own_pts_no_drift; full mux suite green (905).
DVD packs several DTS core frames into one PES; the parser stamped every
access unit with that single PES PTS and duration_ns=None, so consecutive
frames collided on one timestamp — ffmpeg rejected the output as 'non
monotonically increasing dts to muxer: X >= X' (deep-decode = corrupt,
e.g. The Punisher). The UHD DTS-HD MA path (one AU per PES, distinct PTS)
was unaffected, which is why this only surfaced on DVD.
Parse the DTS core header for samples ((NBLKS+1)*32) and sample rate
(SFREQ, 48kHz fallback) to derive each AU's duration, and stamp a running
monotonic PTS: max(next_clock, own-core-PES PTS), then advance by the
frame duration. A later PES whose PTS is ahead of the clock still wins
(preserves the UHD per-PES attribution from da85f56/c49a180); frames
sharing one PES advance frame-by-frame instead of colliding.
Tests: the 3 that encoded 'same PES -> same PTS' now assert monotonic
advance; new dvd_many_cores_one_pes_are_strictly_monotonic reproduces the
Punisher bug; duration/SFREQ-fallback unit tests added.
Two defensive hardenings from the post-fix audit (vs FFmpeg/GStreamer):
1. Move the `pes.discontinuity` partial-drop ABOVE the empty-data guard in
all three audio parsers (ac3/dts/truehd), so a discontinuity signal can
never be stranded by an empty post-gap PES. The demuxer only emits
non-empty PES today; this is defense-in-depth for any future caller.
2. A PES with no PTS must not reset the timeline to 0. ac3 now carries
`flush_pts_ns`, dts continues from the most recent known base; truehd
already kept its running cadence on a None PTS. Matches OSS behavior
(PTS rebases off the next PES that actually carries a PTS).
Adds an ac3 regression test (empty-payload discontinuity PES still drops
the stranded partial). Loss accounting was reviewed: TS-demux CC-gaps are
NOT counted toward lost_video_secs / abort (that is sector-based via
DiscStream::errors / mapfile bytes_unreadable), so a source splice never
inflates loss — no gating needed there.
The AC-3, DTS and TrueHD parsers buffer access units across PES
boundaries. At a concealed-loss gap the buffered unit is truncated:
splicing post-gap bytes onto it manufactures a corrupt frame on top of
the real loss (FFmpeg "Failed to decode block code(s)" / "Invalid data
found" at the gap) and, for TrueHD, strands the PTS cadence into the
non-monotonic audio-DTS band seen on multi-clip titles.
The video parsers already handle this via the ResyncGate, but the
discontinuity signal was only wired into video — audio parsers ignored
pes.discontinuity and spliced across the gap.
Now, when pes.discontinuity is set, each audio parser drops the partial
(clears buf, and for DTS its PTS marks / pending base) so the post-gap
PES re-bases a fresh unit. A lost gap degrades to a clean single-frame
drop instead of a corrupt spliced frame. No effect on perfect rips: the
branch only runs when concealment inserted a discontinuity marker.
Adds a per-parser test feeding a partial frame then a discontinuity PES,
asserting the truncated partial is dropped (not spliced) and the post-gap
PTS is adopted.
Closes the three residual holes where a concealed/lost gap could still let
a dangling-reference frame reach the muxer (degraded/undecryptable-disc
path only; clean rips are byte-identical and untouched). Root cause: the
discontinuity signal was reconstructed from the 4-bit continuity counter
and applied per-PES, both of which are lossy.
Three coordinated changes:
1. CC-INDEPENDENT marker. fill_null_ts_unit now tags its NULL packets with
an adaptation-field discontinuity_indicator; the demuxer recognises a
0x1FFF packet carrying it as a concealed gap and forces a discontinuity
on every tracked PID (the lost unit's PID is unknowable). This survives
a loss that is an exact multiple of 16 packets (CC aliases to in-sequence
— hole 3) and a loss at a PID's very start (no prior CC — hole 4); it
also drops any open, potentially-truncated partial PES.
2. PUSI ATTRIBUTION. A gap landing on a PES boundary now flags the PES
STARTING after it, not the one flushed at the boundary (hole 1) —
stamping the pre-gap frame could arm-then-disarm the gate on a keyframe
and admit the real post-gap inter frame.
3. PER-FRAME signal. codec::Frame gains `discontinuity`; each parser
propagates it onto the first post-gap frame. MPEG-2 buffers whole GOPs
asynchronously, so it associates the gap by ES OFFSET (like PTS/source),
landing it on the exact post-gap picture mid-GOP (hole 2) — a per-PES
flag stamped the previous picture. consume_ts (and the EOF flush drain)
gate on frame.discontinuity.
Tests: CC-independent marker with in-sequence CC + leading-loss; PUSI
attribution flags the post-gap PES; MPEG-2 offset-mark stamps the post-gap
picture through GOP reorder, not the previous one. Existing B1 gate + EOF
tests still green (2270 lib tests).
Pairs with A2 (read-path NULL-TS concealment). When the demux assembler
sees a TS continuity gap it now stamps `discontinuity` on the next
completed PES; the codec-parse stage carries that onto a per-track
ResyncGate. After a gap on an inter-coded video track the gate drops
forward to the next IRAP/IDR keyframe so no frame with a dangling
reference reaches the muxer (an ffmpeg deep scan would otherwise report
a missing-reference / non-existing-PPS error). Audio and subtitle tracks
have no cross-frame references, so the gate is a no-op there.
- ts.rs: PesPacket gains `discontinuity`; PesAssembler tracks a sticky
pending_discontinuity flag set on CC gap / discontinuity_indicator and
carried to the next completed/flushed PES.
- resync.rs (new): ResyncGate — per-track arm-on-gap, drop non-keyframes
until the next keyframe disarms and resumes. Logs the resync + drop
count once at the keyframe.
- pipelined_stream.rs: precompute per-track is_video, apply the gate in
consume_ts. Out-of-range track index emits as-is (defensive).
Tests: ResyncGate unit tests; ts.rs gap-stamps-discontinuity; end-to-end
B1 video-drops-to-keyframe and audio-never-drops through PipelinedPesStream.
Post-read verify gate (new src/disc/verify.rs): UnitVerifier buffers/aligns the disc-absolute read stream into clip-file 6144-byte units, then makes one decryptability() decision per unit (CPI gate -> held keys -> key_fetch -> strict TS). POST_READ_VERIFY const kill-switch; fail-safe contract (only ever downgrades units it is confident are undecryptable; every doubt skips). Hooked into Disc::sweep (producer observes ciphertext -> WorkItem::MarkBad after the Good, FIFO-ordered) and Disc::patch (post-loop reverify_iso reads recovered units whole from the patched ISO). extract::clip_layouts enumerates AACS clips for the gate.
Standards-correct AACS verify: aacs::unit_is_clean_ts is a strict port of libaacs _verify_ts (all 32 TS syncs, not a majority vote); decrypt_unit accepts a key only on it; the majority verify_ts is removed. Deleted the Disc::verify_clips post-pass bolt-on (its primitive is absorbed by the read-path gate).
libaacs/DVD audit fixes: content-cert bus_encryption flag now read from bit 7 (was bit 0 - defeated the bus-key fail-loud gate); cc_id read from offset 14; title_cps_unit range-validated + 1->0 index-converted per libaacs. Corrected attack_crib ("functionally-equivalent" not "exact" port) and read_disc_key (READ DVD STRUCTURE 0xAD, not REPORT KEY) doc comments.
Also includes accumulated uncommitted work: key-fetch seam and TrueHD/DTS audio fix.
TrueHD: when the PES PTS lags the access-unit cadence, resync to the PTS
but never snap the running timestamp backward, so the emitted DTS stays
monotonic across the resync (next_pts_ns = max(next_pts_ns, pts)).
DTS-HD MA: size each EXSS extension substream exactly from its header
(exss_frame_size) and skip it as a unit, so a false 0x7FFE8001 core sync
inside the lossless extension payload can no longer split the access unit
and truncate the extension. Falls back to a bounded scan when the header
is unparseable.
Provenance: build.rs bakes the git short hash into GIT_SUFFIX; the muxing/
writing-application field and the FVI generator tag now record the exact
build (e.g. "freemkv 1.1.0-beta.1 (g835cc99)"), so any output file is
traceable to the revision that produced it.
Surgical fixes (each with a regression test that fails without the change):
mux/mkv.rs, mux/demux_sink.rs: drive the clip-boundary timeline epoch
off the resolved PRIMARY VIDEO track, not the literal stream index 0.
An M2TS/PMT title can list an audio ES before video, so streams[0] may
be audio; a non-video epoch driver ratchets the frontier and inflates
the timeline. mkv cluster-opening falls back to track 0 for audio-only
titles so they still open clusters.
mux/codec/ac3.rs: correct ACMOD_CHANNELS — acmod=5 (3/1) is 4 channels,
not 3 (was undercounting a 3/1 stream); fix the A/52 Table 5.8 doc.
disc/mod.rs: HDMV coding_type 0x91 (Interactive Graphics / menus) no
longer maps to PGS subtitle — it falls through to Unknown so the PMT/STN
walker drops it instead of surfacing a bogus subtitle track.
mux/videomap.rs + mux/mkv.rs: FVI colour now mirrors the MKV muxer's CICP
precedence (measured CICP authoritative; HDR-driven PQ/HLG transfer
override) via a shared cicp_for_video helper, so the two sinks can't
disagree (HDR10 BT.2020 no longer emits SDR transfer 14).
mux/mkvstream.rs: saturating_add on cluster_ts + rel_ts so an adversarial
CLUSTER_TIMESTAMP near i64::MAX can't overflow/panic before the existing
saturating_mul.
mux/timeline.rs: tighten the tail-straggler clamp so a normal new-epoch
non-video frame leading the sparse video frontier by >3s is not demoted
into the previous clip's epoch.
mux/m2ts_mux/mod.rs: re-stamp PCR per video TS packet (mid-PES), not only
at PES boundaries, so a large UHD I-frame can't open a multi-second PCR
gap; modular 33-bit PTS rebasing so a real 90 kHz clock wrap is not
collapsed to PTS 0 (pre-base frames still floor to 0).
io/byte_prefetcher.rs, sector/prefetched.rs: wrap the producer feed loop
in catch_unwind and emit a typed error sentinel on panic, so a mid-stream
producer panic is not read as a clean EOF at the demux boundary (which
would silently truncate the mux).
mux/codec/h264.rs: extend HIGH_PROFILES to the full ISO/IEC 14496-15 set
that mandates the avcC chroma/bit-depth extension (adds 244 et al.).
Doc/comment accuracy: css/mod.rs (50000 sectors, not scrambled-sectors),
aacs/decrypt.rs (decrypt_unit already-clear path), ifo.rs (TT_SRPT at
0xC4), css/lfsr.rs (LFSR0 24-bit; TAB1-then-XOR cipher; real scramble-flag
predicate), disc/read_error.rs (for_sweep does bounded transient retries).
Skipped: keydb.rs SSRF guard (low/latent, no live caller) — a hard
loopback block breaks an existing behavioral test that exercises the
header-EOF path over a loopback server; a clean fix needs a resolver test
seam beyond this surgical pass. The sibling keydb_fetch.rs comment fix is
out of scope (freemkv crate).
Parse the two HDR10 HEVC SEI messages and emit the corresponding
Matroska Colour metadata, only when actually present in the bitstream
(SDR / no-SEI tracks omit it; nothing is fabricated).
Parse (Rec. ITU-T H.265 Annex D):
- Mastering Display Colour Volume SEI, payloadType 137 (D.2.28):
display_primaries_x/y[3] (SEI order G,B,R), white_point_x/y
(0.00002 units), max/min_display_mastering_luminance (0.0001 cd/m²).
- Content Light Level Info SEI, payloadType 144 (D.2.35):
MaxCLL / MaxFALL (cd/m² integers).
HevcParser::scan_sei walks the sei_rbsp ff-extension payloadType/
payloadSize coding and de-emulates (00 00 03) before reading, reusing
the existing strip_emulation_prevention helper. Both SEI are required
before any metadata is surfaced; SEI NALs still pass through unchanged.
Carry: the measured Hdr10Metadata rides PictureInfo (the same per-coded-
picture seam FieldOrder uses), flowing through from_codec_frame onto
PesFrame.coding to the deferred-muxer activate path, where
apply_coding_to_track stamps it on the video track before the header is
written. Set only when both SEI were seen.
Emit (RFC 9559 / Matroska): new Colour children in ebml.rs
(MasteringMetadata 0x55D0, Primary R/G/B + WhitePoint chromaticity
0x55D1..0x55D8, Luminance max/min 0x55D9/0x55DA, MaxCLL 0x55BC,
MaxFALL 0x55BD). write_hdr10 converts chromaticity SEI int × 0.00002 →
Matroska float, luminance SEI int × 0.0001 → cd/m² float; MaxCLL/MaxFALL
are uints verbatim. SEI primary index 0/1/2 (G/B/R) mapped to the
Matroska R/G/B element layout. Emitted only when hdr10 is present.
Tests: SEI parse with exact raw values, requires-both-SEI, SDR omission,
and emulation-prevention stripping (hevc.rs); muxer emit with exact unit
scaling + SDR omission of MasteringMetadata/MaxCLL/MaxFALL (mkv.rs);
apply_coding_to_track HDR10 plumbing (mkvstream.rs).
Owner-flagged invariant: freemkv -t 1 ALWAYS selects the main feature because the
CLI's title 1 maps to titles[0] and the list is ordered by canonical_title_order
(main feature first). Adds a DVD-shaped contract pin asserting titles[0] is the
movie after sorting (a regression there is a title-ordering bug, not a remux issue),
complementing the existing branching-UHD / normal-disc order tests.
Also clears two pre-existing test-only clippy nits surfaced under --all-targets:
unused `lba` in ClearStubReader::read_sectors, and an unneeded `mut` on the
h264 population test's closure.
Honest PictureInfo population for VC-1 — completes the set (MPEG-2, H.264, HEVC,
VC-1 all populate now).
- Read the advanced-profile sequence header INTERLACE flag (SMPTE 421M §6.1.1,
bit 41), de-escaping emulation-prevention bytes as parse_vc1_resolution does.
- For a PROGRESSIVE sequence, decode the picture-layer PTYPE VLC (0=P, 10=B,
110=I, 1110=BI→I, 1111=Skipped→P) from the first bits after the frame start
code. For INTERLACED (FCM/FPTYPE precede PTYPE) or simple/main/unknown, decline
→ coding stays None: honestly absent, never read at a wrong bit offset.
- Set coding = coding_type_only(...) and source = pes.source; field order is not
decoded, so field_order() is honestly None.
- Reuses the shared startcode::BitReader (no new primitive).
- Tests: progressive I/P/B from real PTYPE VLCs + source carry + field-order
absence; interlaced honest-decline.
Honest PictureInfo population for HEVC, on the same principle as H.264.
- Consolidate the bit reader: hevc.rs had its own BitReader (used by the SPS
parser); h264 just gained one in startcode. Promote startcode's to the single
shared pub(crate) reader (adds read_bits) and delete hevc's copy — one proven
primitive, reused (SPS parse + both slice-type decoders).
- hevc: decode slice_type from the first coded slice's slice_segment_header
(H.265 §7.3.6.1) → I/P/B (§7.4.7.1). The offset to slice_type depends on
num_extra_slice_header_bits, which lives in the PPS — so we parse it from the
ACTIVE PPS (§7.3.2.3) and only measure slice_type when that PPS is known.
With no active PPS we decline rather than guess: coding stays None, honestly
absent. Set coding = coding_type_only(...) and source = pes.source; field
order (pic_struct SEI) is not decoded, so field_order() is honestly None.
- Tests: I/P/B from real slice headers, source carry, field-order absence, and
the no-PPS honest-omission case.
Honest PictureInfo population for H.264 — the foundation that lets the video
index claim a frame's type and be believed (a faked "P" on a B-frame would make
the index confidently wrong).
- startcode: shared minimal MSB-first BitReader with Exp-Golomb ue(v), reused by
H.264 (and next HEVC). Documents the emulation-prevention caveat: only the
leading slice-header fields are read, where 00 00 03 cannot intervene.
- h264: decode first_mb_in_slice + slice_type (H.264 §7.3.3) from the first
coded slice and map to I/P/B (§7.4.3 Table 7-6; SP→P, SI→I). Set
coding = PictureInfo::coding_type_only(...) and source = pes.source. Field
order is NOT decoded here, so field_order() stays None — honestly absent,
never guessed.
- Tests: I/P/B from real ue-encoded slice headers, source carry, field-order
absence; BitReader Exp-Golomb table + truncation.
Carry per-picture truth and byte-exact source provenance THROUGH the stream so
the muxer (and the upcoming video index) read MEASURED facts instead of
assuming them. Honest data in, honest data out.
- codec/coding.rs: codec-agnostic PictureInfo (CodingType / FieldOrder + the
accessors field_order/coding_type/nb_fields/progressive/keyframe). Each codec
folds its raw signals in; consumers use only accessors, never branch on codec.
- mpeg2: builds PictureInfo from the picture coding extension and carries it +
SourcePos (source_marks, parallel to pts_marks) on every emitted frame.
- pes / codec::Frame: additive `coding` + `source`, forwarded through the
highway; None for audio/subtitle and the network/stdio deserialize hop.
- mkvstream: DEFER muxer construction until the first coded picture, set the
video track's FieldOrder from the MEASURED value, THEN write the header —
right the first time, no guess, no seek-back. An interlaced track that arrives
with no measured order is LOGGED loudly and left UNDETERMINED, never faked.
- mkv: MkvTrack::video no longer guesses TFF (a bitstream property the scan
cannot know is UNDETERMINED at build). Removed VideoStream::top_field_first
(the dead scan-time guess) crate-wide.
- Tests: parser population (every PictureInfo facet + per-PES source carry) and
mux-stream consumption (measured -> correct; missing -> UNDETERMINED, not
faked). Two obsolete tests updated only after confirming (their own comments)
they existed to enforce the deleted hardcoded-TFF.
- FieldOrder now derives from the bitstream's measured top_field_first
(Some(true)→TFF, Some(false)→BFF) instead of hardcoding TFF for all
interlaced content; falls back to TFF when unmeasured. Adds
VideoStream::top_field_first; DVD/BD scan sets None with a precise
TODO(spec) for parser→title plumbing.
- CICP (matrix/transfer/primaries/range) now prefers measured CICP from
the bitstream (VideoStream::measured_cicp) over the coarse ColorSpace
enum, so the container stops assuming a colour space the stream may
contradict. Enum remains the fallback.
- VobSub S_VOBSUB CodecPrivate now emits a `size: WxH` line ahead of the
palette per the .idx format so players place/scale subs correctly.
- SeekHead: when zero cues are written, the CUES Seek entry is Voided
instead of leaving a dangling pointer to the Cues offset (now Tags/EOF).
- AC-3 Channels back-patch offset is captured from the writer instead of
the hardcoded chan_elem_pos+2 (decoupled from the VINT width choice).
- Hoisted inline CICP codes and the dvcC fourcc to named constants citing
ITU-T H.273 / RFC 9559; fixed the stale FieldOrder comment.
- DefaultDuration vs pulldown: precise TODO(spec) left (needs the same
parser→title channel as top_field_first).
Tests: BFF-from-measured-flag, measured-CICP-overrides-enum, VobSub size:
line present/omitted, zero-cue SeekHead Void. precommit (1.86) green.
Three Silence-of-the-Lambs (R2 PAL SD-DVD) follow-ups for rc.5.2.
SUB-TASK 1 — Windows Explorer showed 12.5 fps (half) for the 576i25 track.
Root cause: the DefaultDecodedFieldDuration (20 ms field) element rc.5.1
added to "fix" Windows fps did the opposite. With FlagInterlaced=1 +
DefaultDuration=40 ms + DefaultDecodedFieldDuration=20 ms, Explorer halved
to 12.5 fps and MediaInfo flipped to VFR. MakeMKV's correct rip omits the
field-duration element, keeps FlagInterlaced=1 + FieldOrder=TFF +
full-frame DefaultDuration (40 ms), and Explorer shows 25 fps / MediaInfo
CFR. Fix: MkvTrack::video now passes field_duration_ns == 0 so the element
is no longer written; the 1/DefaultDuration = 25 fps signal (the only one
tools trust) is the full-frame value. Interlace signalling (FlagInterlaced,
FieldOrder=TFF) is retained — MediaInfo reads scan type from the MPEG-2 ES
picture coding extension, so it still reports Interlaced / Top Field First.
Tests pin the new TrackEntry elements (element present/absent + values).
SUB-TASK 2 — opening "menu"/still-frame video. Traced the MPEG-2
opening-GOP path; the wrong/last seq header and PTS-floor-to-0 hypotheses
are RULED OUT with file:line evidence: codecPrivate is the FIRST sequence
header (read once at headers-ready, mkvstream.rs:115 + pipelined_stream.rs:289),
DVD VOBU structure guarantees each title opens on seq header + I-frame (no
mid-GOP open), the parser back-anchors leading still-frames to the disc's
real timeline (mpeg2.rs:296-303), and the muxer anchors base on the opening
keyframe's real PTS so the t=0 floor (mkv.rs:963) never corrupts it.
Regression tests pin all three (parser + muxer level).
SUB-TASK 3 — make --log-level 3 self-sufficient (diag.rs + minimal hooks).
(a) dump the ACTUAL MKV TrackEntry elements written per track
(tag=mkv.track: FlagInterlaced, FieldOrder, DefaultDuration, field duration,
Display dims, codecPrivate hex) so Windows-fps-class metadata is verifiable
from a log alone. (b) capture the first ~100 coded frames per track (raw)
to <output>.opening.bin with a per-frame summary line (tag=mkv.opening.frame:
track, key/delta, size, PTS) so opening-GOP/menu issues are diagnosable from
a future log without the disc. Both gated to log-level 3; normal runs open
no side file and record nothing.
CI gate (Rust 1.86): fmt --check, clippy -D warnings, and test --tests all
green.
1. HEVC CRA->BLA false-trigger on 33-bit PTS wraparound
(src/mux/codec/hevc.rs): the clip-boundary auto-detect compared the
RAW 33-bit PES PTS against the high-water mark, so a single-clip title
crossing 2^33->0 (~26.5h) false-armed pending_clip_boundary and rewrote
a legitimate in-clip CRA(21)->BLA_W_LP(16), dropping valid RASL pictures
(visible corruption) and breaking the single-clip byte-identical
guarantee. Now unwrap the PTS onto a monotonic 64-bit timeline first
(a near-full-period backstep is a wrap: add 2^33, update the watermark,
do not arm). Regression test cra_after_33bit_pts_wrap_not_rewritten;
the genuine-clip-join test still passes.
2. Single-pass recovery read bypassed the transport-failure abort
(src/mux/disc.rs): the line-442 short-circuit only inspected the 10s
read res. A transport failure (status 0xFF, wedged USB bridge) on the
60s recovery read fell into the skip_errors branch and zero-filled/
advanced, marching the disc at one bridge-recovery per probe
(run-forever, hard rule #2). Re-check the recovery error for
is_scsi_transport_failure() before the skip block and abort with
Error::DiscRead. Test transport_failure_on_recovery_read_aborts_even_with_skip_errors.
3. Recovery-read SUCCESS branch had no coverage (src/mux/disc.rs tests):
added RecoverableReader (errors when recovery=false, succeeds when
recovery=true) and test recovery_read_success_muxes_recovered_data_no_skip
driving fill_extents to the size-1 bottom-out and asserting the recovered
data is muxed (counters advance, no skip).
4. TrueHD channel-correction probe omitted set_unit_base
(src/disc/mod.rs correct_truehd_channels): the probe read via a
DecryptingSectorSource without anchoring the AACS unit-alignment gate,
so it degraded to absolute start_lba % 3 and returned DecryptFailed on a
non-3-aligned extent, silently understating Atmos/7.1 as 5.1. Now call
set_unit_base(ext.start_lba) before the probe read (no-op for CSS/None).
5. is_unit_aligned lba<unit_base latent trap (src/aacs/decrypt.rs):
wrapping_sub mis-gated when lba < unit_base (2^32 == 1 mod 3). Switched
to saturating_sub (clamps offset to 0, a unit boundary) and pinned the
contract with is_unit_aligned_lba_below_base_is_well_defined plus
is_unit_aligned_relative_to_base.
cargo +1.86 fmt --check / clippy -D warnings / test --tests all green.
Fixes the "Silence of the Lambs" R2 PAL wrong-substream rip: the feature's
IFO declares one 5.1 AC-3 stream, but the scan assigned it the on-wire
sub-stream id 0x80 purely by per-codec ordinal (ifo::assign_audio_sub_stream_ids).
On this disc the physical 0x80 carries the 2.0 down-mix and the 5.1 main mix
lives at a different 0x8x sub-stream, so the rip muxed 2.0 while labelling it
"Dolby Digital 5.1" (the acmod fixup in mkv.rs then corrected only the Channels
element, surfacing the mismatch as the "IFO claimed 6 but acmod says 2" warning
— too late to re-route).
New src/disc/dvd_audio_probe.rs probes each physical AC-3 sub-stream's real
channel count from the head of the feature (the acmod/lfeon of its first frame
after the 0x0B77 sync) and re-routes each IFO-declared AC-3 stream onto the
physical sub-stream whose actual channel count matches the declared count,
instead of trusting the ordinal. Wired into both mux demux paths
(DiscStream::new and resolve::build_iso_pipeline) over the decrypting reader,
so it works on CSS discs and the autorip ISO-remux path alike. Bounded
512-sector best-effort read; an empty/unreadable probe degrades to the original
ordinal mapping (no regression on normal discs).
The cell selection is left unchanged: the feature's cell 0 (cat=0x02, 302.4s)
is chapter 1 of the movie (matches MakeMKV's chapter map and 1h53 duration
exactly), so it must NOT be dropped — the perceived "wrong video at the start"
was the wrong 2.0 audio over the opening, the same root cause.
Diagnostics (--log-level 3): new tag=dvd.substream rows dump the ACTUAL acmod
channel count of each physical 0x8x sub-stream read from the VOB, and the
per-cell tag=dvd.cell verdict now spells out the keep/skip reason. With the
existing tag=dvd.aattr (IFO declared sub_id + channels) a bug log alone now
shows whether the ordinal 0x80 really carries the declared layout — no disc
needed to diagnose this class.
expose ac3::find_ac3_sync as pub(crate) for the probe.
The "TopGun bug" (Top Gun 1986 UHD, DV Profile 7 dual-layer): the auditor
flags the rip `corrupt` with a flood of HEVC "Could not find ref with POC N"
decode errors (POC 114/210/228/234/240/246/252/318/336/354/372/399 — one
cluster per clip join).
Root cause: the title is multiple .m2ts clips joined at non-seamless
boundaries (mpls connection_condition 0x05/0x06), read as one concatenated
stream. Each next clip opens with a CRA whose RASL leading pictures reference
pre-join frames gone after concatenation. hevc.rs already has the spec remedy
(rewrite splice CRA_NUT 21 → BLA_W_LP 16 so a decoder sets NoRaslOutput and
drops the dangling RASL), behind mark_clip_boundary() — but nothing ever
called it: connection_condition is not plumbed through the threaded mux
pipeline, so the whole CRA→BLA mechanism was dead code.
Fix: detect the boundary inside the parser from the bitstream. Each clip
carries its own PES PTS base, so a non-seamless join is a large backward
PTS reset. HevcParser::parse now tracks a PTS high-water mark and, on a
backward step beyond 3 s (270000 ticks @ 90 kHz — mirroring the mux-side
DISCONTINUITY_BACKSTEP_NS), arms the existing CRA→BLA rewrite for the new
clip's first IRAP. Self-contained: works for every mux path, no cross-thread
plumbing. The 3 s threshold sits above any HEVC B-frame reorder dip and far
below any clip duration, so it never false-triggers in-clip; single-clip /
seamless titles never arm it and stay byte-identical.
Adds regression test cra_at_auto_detected_pts_backstep_rewritten_to_bla
(in-clip dip must not trigger; splice CRA after a backward reset must become
BLA; one-shot). hevc suite 55/55, mux suite 780/780.
- CSS: unlock scrambled-sector reads on enforcing drives via bus-auth
only; classify sense 6F/03 as CSS-locked; early-bail on a fully locked
scan; gate the AACS handshake off DVD discs.
- DVD first-play menu no longer prepended to the feature: read the title
VOBS base from vtstt_vobs (0xC4), not the menu VOBS vtsm_vobs (0xC0).
- Interlaced field-duration (DefaultDecodedFieldDuration) written as a
direct TrackEntry child rather than inside Video, so Windows reports
the correct frame rate.
- Audio channel count read from the AC-3 bitstream; FieldOrder set to
TFF; per-track BPS tags.
- Structured disc diagnostics at --log-level 3; reduced per-operation
log spam.
When a keyframe AU carried an unchanged seq_header (stripped) but a
redefined entry_point (appended), the old append-then-reassert path
produced [entry_point, seq_header] — entry_point before seq_header,
violating SMPTE 421M which requires seq+entry before every RAP.
Replace the single shared prefix Vec + reassert_active() with per-type
temporaries (redefined_seq / redefined_ep) collected during the scan,
then assembled in canonical seq-then-entry order at keyframe time.
Non-keyframes still emit only genuine redefinitions, also seq-before-ep.
Removes the now-unused reassert_active() helper. Adds a regression test
covering the seq-unchanged / entry-redefined trigger case.
Comments at lines ~63 and ~102 misidentified 0x01 (first-item/seamless) as the
non-seamless trigger and labelled 0x05/0x06 as seamless — inverted vs the BD-ROM
spec and mpls.rs (which documents 1=seamless, 5/6=non-seamless). Corrected all
affected doc blocks; no logic change.
Test-hardening release, no runtime changes. Adds spec-grounded unit tests
across the silent-corruption surfaces — UDF/MPLS/CLPI/IFO parsing, BD/DVD
title + extent assembly, AACS/CSS key handling, TS/PS demux + codec parsers,
MKV/EBML container output, the mux pipeline, sector prefetch + decrypt
decorator, drive/SCSI sense decoding, label extraction, and core I/O. Each
test is grounded in the format spec or real on-disc behavior and verified to
fail under a targeted source mutation. No behavior changed.
Add a precommit fixture proving Disc::read_aacs_inputs reads a Long-AD,
multi-extent /AACS/Unit_Key_RO.inf in full — the exact input the online
key-request path depends on (no disc/deploy needed). Make
read_aacs_inputs_from_reader pub(crate) for the test.
Reword internal comments/doc examples to generic descriptions instead of
specific media titles.
Library-wide review-and-fix pass: tightened AACS keydb/handshake/variant
handling and trailing-partial-unit policy, corrected MPLS mark offset and
added UDF allocation bounds, hardened the mux/codec framing and M2TS paths,
guarded SCSI READ CAPACITY short transfers and unified error mapping, added
overflow guards on untrusted disc input, and made prefetch shutdown
deterministic. Release profile now builds with thin LTO + single codegen unit.
Subtitle/DVD output-corruption + stream-mapping coverage fixes.
1. DVD subtitle/audio track-mapping collision (CRITICAL). The PS path
routed 0xBD private-stream packets to a track via (sub_id & 0x1F)+1,
so VobSub subtitle sub-id 0x20+j aliased audio track j+1: subtitle
PES was fed to the AC-3 parser and the real subtitle track got
nothing. Route by the canonical DVD PID instead via a new
PsPacket::dvd_pid() that mirrors scan_dvd_titles' PID assignment
(video 0xE0, audio 0xBD00+i, subtitle 0x20+j), then look up the
track in pid_to_track. Fixed identically at all three sites
(pipelined_stream consume_ps, disc.rs live feed, disc.rs EOF flush).
Unmappable/unmapped packets now WARN instead of silently dropping.
2. PGS flush() missing. PgsParser inherited the no-op default flush, so
the last subtitle of every PGS track (emitted only when a following
PCS arrives) was dropped at EOF. Implemented flush() to drain the
pending display set (duration_ns: None for the trailing block).
3. DVD VobSub multi-PES SPU not reassembled. A subpicture unit larger
than one PES spans multiple PES (only the head carries a PTS).
DvdSubParser is now stateful: it buffers per sub-stream until the
leading 2-byte SPU_size is satisfied, inherits the head PTS, and
emits one Frame. flush() drains a truncated trailing SPU at EOF.
4. One-table hygiene. scan_streams had a duplicate stream_type->Codec
table that had drifted from Codec::from_coding_type (missing 0x80
LPCM, 0x85 mapped to DTS-HD MA vs HR, etc.). scan_streams now uses
from_coding_type plus a new Codec::kind()/CodecKind category split,
so the two mappings can never diverge. Silent drops in
scan_streams and bluray STN parsing now WARN with PID + type.
Tests: dvd_pid mapping + subtitle/audio collision regression, PGS
final-subtitle flush, VobSub multi-PES reassembly + EOF flush,
scan_streams 0x80 LPCM via from_coding_type.
H.264 stored SPS/PPS in single Option slots and always stripped them
from frame data, so a mid-title parameter-set redefinition (same id,
different body) was lost — those frames decoded against the stale avcC
copy the player re-applies at each keyframe. Same defect class as the
HEVC PPS-redefinition bug. Mirror that fix: emit a changed SPS/PPS
in-band at every occurrence; strip only the first-seen / identical ones.
Also guard avcC's 16-bit NAL length fields: a param set > 65535 bytes
truncated the length while appending all bytes. Return None instead.
codec_private() hardcoded 8-bit 4:2:0 in the hvcC fixed header, wrong for
10-bit Main 10 UHD (essentially all UHD). Parse chroma_format_idc and
bit_depth_luma/chroma_minus8 from the SPS RBSP (with emulation-prevention
removal and sub-layer profile_tier_level handling) and emit the real
values; fall back to 8-bit 4:2:0 only if the SPS can't be parsed.
Also guard the 16-bit NAL length fields: a param set larger than 65535
bytes would truncate the length while appending all bytes, mis-framing
the record. Return None instead of emitting a corrupt hvcC.
A continuation PES (one that merely extends a TrueHD AU spanning PES
packets) carries its own later PTS, which the parser was adopting
mid-assembly, snapping the AU's timestamp and breaking the monotonic
per-AU cadence (A/V drift). Capture the PTS base only when the
reassembly buffer is empty, i.e. when a PES actually begins a new AU.
When two access units flushed in one parse() call (a core arriving in an
earlier PES than the PES that closes the unit, the standard DTS-HD MA
core+extension-as-separate-PES layout), the second AU inherited the
latest PES's PTS instead of its own core's.
Track per-PES PTS markers keyed by buffer offset and stamp each emitted
AU with the PTS of the PES covering its first byte, rebasing markers on
every front drain. Each AU now keeps its own core's timestamp.
Extends two_cores_back_to_back to assert PTS; adds cross-PES coverage.
Two defects:
- Ac3Parser inherited the no-op default flush(), so a complete final
frame still buffered at end-of-stream was dropped (~32 ms of audio
lost). Add a flush() that drains a complete buffered frame, mirroring
dts.rs.
- Every frame in one parse() call was stamped with the single PES PTS,
collapsing their timecodes and drifting A/V. Compute a base PTS once
per call, then advance per frame by the frame's own duration (AC-3 =
1536 samples; E-AC-3 from numblkscod), converting samples->ns at the
stream sample rate (fscod). Each Frame now carries duration_ns.
Fight Club redefines PPS id 0 mid-title; the parser froze the first PPS into
codecPrivate and stripped the rest, so the redefined segment decoded against
the wrong PPS (CABAC/cu_qp_delta desync, intact framing). Now any VPS/SPS/PPS
whose body differs from the codecPrivate copy is emitted in-band at every
occurrence, overriding the hvcC copy a player re-applies per keyframe. Proven:
Fight Club re-mux decode errors 320+ -> 0 across all corrupt regions.
Also adds aacs::unit_key_validates (1-block early-reject UK validation) and
ts_sync_count/ts_packet_total helpers.
The video codec parsers (HEVC, H.264, VC-1, MPEG-2) used
pes.dts.or(pes.pts) as each frame's timestamp. MKV block timecodes
are presentation timestamps; frames are stored in decode order and
the player reorders for display by timecode. Using DTS makes the
timecode monotonic in storage order, presenting B-frames in decode
order — visible motion judder / wrong frames on playback, and
PTS-based seeking lands on the wrong frame.
The compressed video was always byte-correct (verified by NAL-level
diff against a known-good demux); this was purely a timestamp defect
affecting every B-frame title. Fix: prefer PTS (pes.pts.or(pes.dts)).
Verified on a real UHD iso->mkv: emitted PTS now reorders for
B-frames identically to a reference muxer.
Update the two tests that asserted the old DTS-preferred behavior and
add an HEVC regression test pinning PTS as the block timecode.
Audit-driven fixes (rounds 1–3):
- hevc: correct hvcC profile/level SPS offsets (HEVC has a 2-byte NAL header)
- mkv: map all DTS variants to the registered A_DTS codec id; force a new
cluster before the i16 cluster-relative timestamp can overflow
- ebml/mkvstream: bound untrusted EBML sizes (no multi-GB allocs); reject
uint>8 (was an OOB panic) and non-{0,4,8} float widths (were a desync)
- ts: skip PES-header bytes that span a TS packet boundary; add the PMT
section_len/prog_info_len bounds the PAT parser already had
- ac3: preserve a 0x0B77 syncword split across a PES boundary; cap buffer
- dts: validate each next-core boundary by decoded core size (a 0x7FFE8001
pattern inside XLL payload no longer false-splits/drops the lossless
extension); reject sub-minimum core frames; fix forced-emit PTS base
- lpcm: DVD program-stream PCM no longer double-strips the BD LPCM header
- vc1/mpeg2: do not emit a parameter-set-only PES as a standalone frame
- pgs/truehd: cap the pending reassembly buffer (parity with ac3/dts)
- aacs: ts_syncs_intact uses the exact packet count
- prefetched: capacity-guard the recycled-buffer set_len
- Cargo.toml: exclude project docs from the published crate
Convergence: a third independent audit pass found no remaining material
(CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM) issues. Full precommit (fmt + clippy -D + tests,
Rust 1.86) green.
DTS-HD MA/HRA access units on Blu-ray are a DTS core frame (sync
0x7FFE8001) followed by one or more DTS extension substreams (sync
0x64582025) carrying the lossless audio. Ground-truthing the Dunkirk
ISO showed the m2ts demuxer hands these out as SEPARATE PES packets on
the same PID: one core PES (exactly core-sized, nothing trailing), then
the extension substreams in following PES packets with their own later
PTS.
The old DtsParser emitted one frame per PES the moment a core frame was
complete, and dropped any PES with no core sync. So every core became a
core-only (lossy) frame and the extension PES packets were discarded as
junk -- silently downgrading the track to lossy DTS core (1557 kb/s CBR,
16-bit) instead of DTS-HD MA (VBR, 24-bit lossless).
Rewrite the parser to assemble across PES boundaries: an access unit
runs from its core sync up to (but not including) the NEXT core sync, so
the core plus every following extension substream stays together. Add a
CodecParser::flush() (default empty) called at end-of-stream by both the
pipelined and inline DiscStream mux paths to drain the final buffered
unit. A 64 KiB cap guarantees forward progress and never stalls if a
boundary can't be found.
Validated on the rip1 testbed: Dunkirk eng+ger and Fight Club eng main
audio now ffprobe as profile=DTS-HD MA (Fight Club eng at 24-bit), with
VBR packet sizes (~2716-2788 B) well above the old fixed 2012 B lossy
core. Genuinely-lossy DTS dub tracks are left untouched.
Adds truehd_channels(format_info) + truehd_channels_from_stream(): the
real presentation channel count (8ch/7.1 when present, else 6ch/5.1)
from the TrueHD major sync, which the MPLS audio_format base field
understates (declares 5.1 even on a 7.1/Atmos track — the Dune case).
Per the MLP spec presentation channel-assignment masks. 3 unit tests.
This is the decoder; wiring it to correct AudioStream.channels requires
a mux-time probe of the DECRYPTED audio payload (the channel truth isn't
readable at scan — the m2ts is AACS-encrypted until the key is applied
at mux), to be added + validated on a real rip.
The DTS parser emitted a core-only frame and discarded the trailing
DTS-HD extension substream whenever the extension straddled a PES
boundary (it advanced past only the core, then re-synced on the core
syncword, skipping the leftover extension bytes). That silently
downgrades DTS-HD MA / HRA to lossy DTS core.
Now: when an extension sync is visible after the core — full, or a
partial prefix at the buffer edge — wait for the full extension instead
of splitting it off; only 'nothing after the core' (final unit / EOF,
no parser flush) is taken as a genuine lossy core-only unit. Adds a
boundary-split regression test asserting core+extension is preserved.
- MkvTrack::audio emits A_DTS/MA, A_DTS/HR, A_DTS per the DTS family
instead of mislabelling everything as A_DTS. Plex transcoder and
strict hardware decoders reject DTS-HD MA payload under a plain
A_DTS track.
- PgsParser is now stateful: pairs display PCS with the following
empty PCS to compute a duration. Frame::duration_ns + PesFrame::duration_ns
carry it through; MkvMuxer::write_frame gains a final Option<u64>
parameter that emits BlockGroup + BlockDuration when set. Fixes
subtitle bitmaps lingering past their intended end-time.
Introduces the freemkv mux throughput highway: a three-stage thread
pipeline that replaces the inline single-thread read path for any
file-backed source (ISO and m2ts file URLs both route through it).
Thread A: read + decrypt (PrefetchedSectorSource / BytePrefetcher)
Thread B: M2TS demux (DemuxThread)
Thread C: codec parse (PipelinedPesStream, on caller thread)
Each handoff uses a bounded crossbeam channel with a recycled buffer
pool — no allocations or memcpys in the steady-state hot loop.
Component map:
* io/byte_prefetcher.rs (new) — std::io::Read producer thread with
recycled Vec<u8> pool. Pairs with PrefetchedSectorSource (sector
side) so demux_thread::spawn_zero_copy can wire either upstream.
* sector/prefetched.rs — recycled buffer pool added; into_channels()
peels off the rx/recycle_tx/shell triple for zero-copy demux.
* mux/demux_thread.rs (new) — owns the TsDemuxer/PsDemuxer, runs
feed() on its thread, ships Vec<PesPacket> batches.
* mux/pipelined_stream.rs (new) — the read-side Stream impl. Pulls
packets from the demux thread and runs codec parse on the caller.
* mux/resolve.rs — build_iso_pipeline (public) / build_m2ts_pipeline
(private) assemble the three stages; iso:// and m2ts:// both
return PipelinedPesStream.
* mux/m2ts.rs — collapsed to a write-only sink (Mode::Read deleted;
the read direction lives on the highway now).
* mux/codec/h264.rs — find_start_code uses memchr SIMD memmem::find.
* mux/codec/hevc.rs — tightened frame_data initial capacity.
* mux/ts.rs — boundary-packet handling avoids the per-batch 16 MiB
remainder copy; PesAssembler starts at 16 KiB to dodge the 64-page
first-touch fault tax that the previous 256 KiB pre-alloc paid on
every PES boundary.
* mux/disc.rs — gains DiscStream::new_pipeline + read_pipeline as
the legacy autorip ingress (drive + multipass paths still need
on_event / skip_errors before they migrate to the highway).
* io/file_sector_source/* — per-OS prefetch() syscall hook
(Linux readahead, macOS F_RDADVISE, Windows/other no-op).
* decrypt.rs — FREEMKV_DECRYPT_THREADS renamed to FREEMKV_THREADS;
pool sized to all cores by default.
Measured on rip1 testbed (Civil War UHD, 62 GiB ISO → null://):
60 → 322 MB/s warm cache (old new_pipeline path)
60 → 660 MB/s warm cache (highway path, this commit)
60 → 126 MB/s sustained disk-bound
The IsoSectorReader baseline reader was deleted in favour of
FileSectorSource so the freemkv CLI and autorip exercise the same
read path.
