Well that's the holy grail tool for us DVD-A fans!

Useful I guess, but the WAV files must be massive when compared to the AOB files.

Admittedly, the WAV's could be used as a source to re-encode to other formats... But like I hinted at earlier, this can be done anyway by using the AC3 stream. That said, the audio quality of an "AOB->WAV->other format" might be better than an "AC3->other format", but would it be worth the effort?


Cheers
