MPEG ]·[ Multichannel

[Tokafondo]

Greetings from Canary Islands

As you may know, Philips put surround audio into SVCD with MPEG ]·[ Multichannel.

I have seen only two ways of transcode a Dolby Digital 5.1 stream into a MPEG ]·[ Multichannel one:

1.- ReMPEG's transcode tool, but the author itself doesn't know if it works.
2.- Sonic Foundry and other tools only available in linux with a complex way that ensures that it will be done.

I have no success with any of the two ways. Will BeSweet work to do this???

Thank you in advance.

Since DVD2SVCD cannot and will never do this I moved this thread into the audio encoding forum.

Sorry for this post. I have NOT readen the forum previous post BEFORE posting this, because a simple search AFTER writing this took me to the solution.

SORRY AGAIN

Besweet works fine.
I have done it myself last week and successfully played back at a player.
Although a mc file at a bitrate of 384 doesn't seem to produce perfect qual yet, but i've read the author of besweet wants to integrate the encoding part in besweet. (which means the qual will be good i guess)

You will need the 'tables' dir and pub_enc.exe from
http://www.licensing.philips.com/ordering/soft/documents343.html
'TOOLS MPEG Audio Tools'

And the latest besweet beta.

with the ssrc/azid dll from the http://dspguru.notrace.dk/BeSweetv1.11.zip package.


these are the command lines:

BeSweet -core( -input audio.ac3 -output audio.aif -6chaiff ) -ssrc( --rate 44100 ) -ota( -g max )

pub_enc -l 2 -m s -n d -r 44.1 -b 384 -L -p 3 -e -v 1 audio.aif finalaudio
