Does anyone know of a good DVD 5.1 audio ripper that will rip all 6 channels and save each one as wave files. I have 'DVD Audio Extractor' and I've tried many times to rip the audio, but there was a lot of skips and pops like it was encrypted or something....help! I'm trying to make DVD-Audio from DVD videos with discwelder....i just need the ripper. Thanks.

 

anyone?

 

There are whole web sites with forums devoted to things like this. Try www.doom9.org.

i know that....but i can't find anything there that works.....again i need a program that will rip all 6 separate channels as waves so i could use it in discwelder. DVD audio extractor burns pops and skips in the waves and i can't seem to do what i want with the other programs

 

For Dolby Digital, use a ripper (like SmartRipper or DVD Decrypter) followed by vStrip to get the .ac3 streams out, and then BeSweet GUI (in wizard mode) to get the 6 .wav files.

DTS is a little more involved and isn't all freeware; you need WinDVD Platinum (along with azidts) to decode the DTS into .wavs.

My experience is a DTS stream-sourced DVD-A sounds much better than a Dolby Digital-sourced DVD-A.

There is no ripper for DVD-A. The encryption has not been cracked.

Thanks for answering. I download all of those programs, but which settings did you choose? I also tried to extract dts audio from Madonna-Drown World Tour using DVD Audio Extractor and it worked perfectly. However the capacity was over the dvd with 48k/24bit. You think I should bring it down to 48k/16bit? I guess I would have to, but what's the downfall for doing that? But anyways with my problem before with my first DVD, I tried to extract audio from Underworld-Everything, Everything by using DVD Audio Extractor and there were pops and skips on the same parts of the song. I want to use different programs to see if the problem would still be there. Please let me know which settings you have on all of those programs so I could enjoy in the car 5.1 audio from my dvd music videos. Thanks all.
