There are some VERY interesting new options in alpha8. I highly reccomend anyone interested in DVD-Audio to try it. A new thread should be made, really.

Hmm...assuming this post is true, we're still in the same situation as we were with DVDFab's DVD-A decryption - we need to get rid of the watermarking. Wish I could help but I'm way too uneducated to do something like this...

you cannot get rid of water mark....this has been discussed all over, including hydrogen audio forums. However, only on DVD-A zone (i.e. assets in AUDIO_TS folder) look for watermark. You can reauthor 96/24 into DVD Video zone (VIDEO_TS) and all players will playback

I've used the Alpha 8 (nice bit of software) and had it rip mlp to 6 wav files. I'm new to this and have a question: does the watermark remain when ripped to individual wav files? If so, it's still nice to use those wav's on discs which only use dolby digital vs. dts, as you can now use them to make a better sounding track. I've also seen some list of players that don't look for the watermark, any info on these players? It would mean you can remove the protection and copy/play on the player despite the watermark still being present.

Thanks to xkodi some bugs were fixed and a couple of changes were made (it's all about converting to wave format).
http://www.sendspace.com/file/xstonq (Alpha 10). Feel sorry of bothering you with neverending flow of alphas, but DVD-Audio format is at the stage of extinction now and we at least should have some workable tool to transfer audio content to other media.

thanks mommyman, you KNOW it doesn't bother me. how about a beta? just joking. actually, since I don't know anyone else who would probably do it in the near future, do you think flac could be put in? I think most people agree flac is the best format for archiving and playing.

cheers

when I ripped a file to 6 .wav's using alpha 10 the wav's wouldn't load into surcode dvd to encode to dts. When I ripped the same song using alpha 8 it worked. I will try it again tomorrow with another file to see if I simply made a mistake. Also of note the file was 88200 Hz, 24 bit if that matters.
edit: I did convert to 48 Hz prior to loading into surcode both times.

That is because wave format has been changed. Try to check "Use old format" option.

P.S. There is another bug when ripping to mlp / raw pcm: file doesn't truncate when opened. So it is better to delete the old files manually.

Hmm... That depends on all of you It is not tested enough yet to get the beta status. For to get in FLAC has to satisfy some requirements:
1. Be able to encode with bitrate up to 192000 and bitdepth 16, 20 and 24.
2. Be able to encode multichannel with various channel assignments.
3. Be able to encode channels with different bitrates and bitdepths.
Otherwise additional bitrate converter is needed and this is another story

Nice with some on-going work on this, especially when I have many DVD-A's and more and more manufacturers have dropped DVD-Audio on their latest models, including Meridian (who invented MLP, the basis for DVD-Audio). Would be interesting, in a not-too-distant-future, to be able to rip DVD-Audio and author those tracks on Blu-ray disks and play in a set-top player. But I guess Blu-ray players would barf the same on the watermark, or isn't their checks some form of a super-set of the old copy protection?
