AC3 to 6 wavs

[Figrin_Dan]

Hi guys

I have successfully ripped the 6 channel AC3 track from my DVD and am attempting to convert it into 6 mono wave files using Besweet.

When I do this, I get 2 tracks with all the dialogue, music and soundeffects and 4 tracks with absolute silence. Ie, Besweet is not splitting the AC3 track into the 5.1 waves I need. It seems to be splitting the 6 channel AC3 track into 2 stereo files and 4 empty wav files.

Does anyone know if there is any other free software out there that will do this. What do I need to do in Besweet to get these 6 wavs separated properly?

I can only assume you are sure you are not ripping the 2 ch ac3 from your dvd?

and i remember a command something like


D:\Video\BeSweet\BeSweet.exe -core( -input "D:\Surround\Temp\Temp6Ch.wav" -output "D:\Surround\temp\temp_" -type wav -6chfloat ) -ota( -g peak )


Hope it helps besweet definitely works and is the program i would be messing with.

Thanks Shayne,

Yes, I am definitely ripping the AC3, 6 channel file.

I use Besweet Gui (no command prompts) and am selecting the AC3 file as the 'Input' file and selecting '6 wavs' as the output file.

No luck. Its really bugging me! :confused:

Use the above command in dos prompt my friend

Ok cool, I will try the prompt but I don't use DOS so I'm not too confident.
