Hi,

This is a simple guide on how to rip your DVD-A discs, how to convert them to flac and how to listen them in bitperfect mode.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Do not forget to switch off Any-DVD/or HD before inserting your DVD-A into your DVD-device.

What you need is:

1) DVD Audio Explorer:

2) Eac3to v. 3.12 or later:

3) Foobar 2000 with WASAPI plugin:

STEP ONE:
Open Audio_TS and click on ATS_01_0.IFO

STEP FIVE:
Transmit it to flac via eac3to 1.32 or over:

eac3to v3.12
command line: eac3to\eac3to C:\users\rica\desktop\tracs\trial.mlp C:\E\trial_out.flac
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MLP, 5.1 channels, 24 bits, 96khz
Decoding with libav/ffmpeg...
Remapping channels...
Encoding FLAC with libFlac...
Creating file "C:\E\trial_out.flac"...
The original audio track has a constant bit depth of 24 bits.
eac3to processing took 2 minutes, 13 seconds.
Done.

STEP SIX:
And try to listen it via foobar with WASAPI support.

Here is a sample file created by that method:
