Suddenly the audio gets out of sync. Mostly DVB-S streams. The problem is that the source is "corrupt". all versions

Read the "Installation Guide". Updating FFDshow hopefully will fix it.

AVCHDCoder fails to open and/or convert files with specific languages

Everything fails when characters from one of the languages listed below are present in the process of AVCHDCoder:
Arabic
Hebrew
Japanese
Chinese
(List not complete)
The solution:

  • Rename your source file to western friendly characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9)
  • Move the source file to a folder that is western friendly
  • (Re)install AVCHDCoder to the root of your harddrive ("C:\AVCHDCoder\" for example)
  • Change the Temp and Output folder to the root of your harddrive ("C:\AVCHDCoder Files\Temp" and "C:\AVCHDCoder Files\Output" for example)
  • Avoid any paths and filenames with non western friendly characters

A solution is not found yet. Doesn't affect the text inside srt files.
