PS3 wierd sound

[alan8477]

I have been using my PS3 to stream copied Blu Ray discs for some time. It has proved very reliabl. I use PS3MediaPlayer. I have a wired gigabit connection to my PC (quad core 4GB RAM Windows 7). I use AnyDVD, RipBot and MKV2VOB to copy and convert. Evrything has gone well, and just recently I have moved to 1:1 encoding (25GB+ files). I frequently find I have a problem with opera discs.

Sometimes RipBot does not bring the sound across, even though it is selected. Recently however, everything seems OK, I play the VOB file on my PC and everything works as it should. But when I play it on the PS3 the sound is totally distorted. It sounds like a very high frequency, high pitched, Darlek type sound. It is in sync. I use HDMI from my PS3, but when I switch to multiple output in the sound option, the sound is fine.

I clearly don't want to leave it in that setting, because I lose 7.1 sound amongst other things (according to the display on the PS3). Any ideas?

What happens if you let PS3MS do the transcoding, i.e. don't run it through mkv2vob...?

The same sound.

Hmm odd, it sounds like you're describing "chipmunk" audio, i'd post on the mkv2vob forum and do a search on there as it's been mentioned a lot and they might be able to help...

I presume your amp is capable of decoding/playing that level of sound ?

It's an Onkyo 905 connected by HDMI.
