AC3 Rip from Vob using GraphEdit ???

[hk]

Hi,
from a single vob file, I tried to extract the AC3 file using GraphEdit. I opened the file with "rendering file" option. But what filters do I use now (and in what order)to extract the AC3 file???

1. Movie.vob
2. MPEG Splitter
3. ???
4. ???
5. audio.ac3

Your help is appreciated, HK

Use VStrip instead ;) ,

i.e.
vstrip thevob.vob -!dosound.ac3 0xbd 0x80

(assuming 0x80 is the number of the stream you want)
(will either be 0x80 or just a bit higher 0x81, 0x82, etc.
...will output to Sound.ac3)

However, with graphedit try:
File Source (ASync)
MPEG-2 Splitter or Ligos MPEG Splitter
A Dump filter (probably comes with Graphedit from Doom9's download or download AviEnc 0.2 off the download site (definitely has bindump.ax)

This may work, but haven't tried it.

Hi Nic,
I´ve tried it with graphedit but the resulting file couln´t be processed with azid/lame.
So maybe there are more filters needed, eg.
is there a filter like AC3 Dest (similar to wavDest)?
Or maybe graphedit doesn´t write a AC3 header?
Got an idea?

I will also try vstrip, but I haven´t got the original DVD structure anymore, just this single vob.

Its better with just the single vob (at least thats how I do it)

Just try the commandline specified & see if it works ok... :)

ps
There is no AC3 Dest, I dont know why it didn't work, try VStrip GUI as well, with & without the AC3 header (??? Dont know what that is but it works best without for me...... :)
