In fact, it can convert between various audio formats like FLAC, DTS, WAV, MP4, M4A, AAC, OGG etc.Ħ2,001 members have started 23,159 topics with 1,147,768 posts since March 10, 2003 I recommend Avdshare Audio Converter which can easily convert DTS to FLAC, WAV, MP3, AAC etc, It also helps to convert video and audio to DTS. 12bits.Īuthor blesshealth Time 3 10:34 PM Post link It’s: Potentially harmfulįor converting to 16bits, I highly reccomend truncating the bits (no dither).Īt sensible volumes, you won’t need dither until you get to approx. I would also argue that 16 bit is OK for listening, and even for editing, and dither is bad. DTSHD MA can be 16, 24, or any number of bits in between. I would assume that MakeMKV/FFMPEG decodes to the bitdepth that the lossless part of that particular DTSHD stream specifies. MakeMKV is updated regularly, so as long as you have a recent version of MakeMKV AND the makers of MakeMKV have decided to use a recent FFMPEG, you MIGHT be ok. DTSHD decoding via dcadec was only very recently added to FFMPEG (mid 2015). It also help you convert 5.1 FLAC to DTS/5.1 DTS, 7.1 FLAC to DTS/5.1 DTS while keep high output quality.ĭepending on how old your FFMPEG is, you may actually be decoding the LOSSY DTS core part of DTSHD. It lets you convert DTS to FLAC as well as keep the channel of the source file like 5.1 DTS to 5.1 FLAC, the same to DTS to WAV. Have you tried this step by step guide :: spam link removed? What did you use to go from the multichannel FLAC to multi-file wav?īefore “Intentional Creative Decisions”!!! it was “…A certain point of view”? Author batmatt92 Time 2 8:06 PM Post linkįree program called Audacity did the trick for me.Īuthor plibemmer Time 1 5:30 AM (Edited) Post link Center, front left, front right, LFE, etc.Īuthor CorellianSmuggler Time 2 7:16 PM Post link It does open it as 8 separate mono tracks (mine's from a 7.1 DTS-HD track) but I have no way of knowing which track is which. the only program I can find that'll open the FLAC is audacity. Rnranimal, did you split your audio into 6 separate mono tracks? That's what I'm trying to do. It is: I rendered them at 24-bit while doing the editing processes, but the DTS-HD MA encodes are made from dithered 16-bit files in order to fit comfortably on a BD-25. Is that correct?Īuthor hairy_hen Time 1 12:56 PM Post link I don't have any other ripped Blu-rays to try, but makemkv is reporting Harmy's latest SW 2.5 & ESB 20. But it would certainly be very important to me to retain 24-bit with discs that offer it. Checking around the net, that seems to be correct for this title. It is of course possible to reduce a 24-bit file to 16 bits without much audible degradation, but you have to use dither to do it, so if there is any undithered truncation happening, loss of quality will result.Ĭan you verify that the audio bit depth is being retained by this process?Īuthor rnranimal Time 1 1:30 AM Post linkĬan't say, this particular DTS-HD stream is being reported as 48/16. If it is being cut down to 16 at any point, then obviously that's not good. The only thing I'd check to make sure of is whether the bit depth of the DTS-HD MA is being retained: if the original was 24-bit, the decoded output should be 24-bit also.

I used mkvtools to extract the FLAC audio and it gave me a valid FLAC that I could then decode to multichannel wav.Īuthor hairy_hen Time 1 5:45 PM (Edited) Post link But I haven't been successful in using VLC to transcode to 5.1 wav, only a stereo downmix.Īuthor rnranimal Time 1 2:48 PM Post link VLC plays it and reports that the audio is 5.1 FLAC. ? as the extension and no decoder programs see it as a valid FLAC file, even after renaming. I then used imkvextract to extract just the FLAC file from the MKV. This program will convert the DTS-HD to 5.1 FLAC as part of a MKV, but I don't think it's able to save just the FLAC file. Makemkv- I used this to create a mkv with FLAC audio. I would like to keep each of the 5.1 tracks, not downmix to stereo.
