how to transcode dts files with foobar2000
Hi,
Everybody knows (I hope at least) that the freeware to transcode dts files amount on a hand We can have azidts and dtsdec from the libdca librairy. The first one seems to be great because we can use it with besweet.dll. So, we can make a transcode of dts to aac/ac3/mp2/mp3/vorbis/wav very quickly. But the most disadvantage is this tool need the WinDVD Intervideo filter and unfortunately WinDVD player isn't a freeware... The second one dtsdec is a CLI (Command Line Interface). So, first we need to transcode dts to wav and then wav to anything following ours desires. In conclusion we have made 2 steps and this tool is more or less buggy Fortunately today we have a new way And it seems to work pretty good. This way is Foobar, the famous audio player with his new plugin foo_dts to decode dts files. Yesssss One of the good point for this player is we can use directly the encoder and some plugins/dsp. That's why the transcode processing is reduced to one step instead of two like dtsdec. I'm testing dts to aac/mp3/vorbis (6 channels/2channels) and all seems to work very well...and all it's free Feel free to test it. Last edited by Kurtnoise; 14th February 2006 at 17:15. |

Hi daphy,

And I've forgotten to say one thing. There is an other free way : the lastest AC3Filter to decode to wav with graphedit. Then we can use BeSweet of course...But once again there are 2 steps. I'll post some examples + screenshots this week-end. |

Yes..you're right. It's my fault...most of my dts samples come from my DVDs. And these files have a 48 Khz Sample Rate. It was just for testing...

Achhh nein...
Like I said, here are some examples for transcoding dts files with foobar2000. First, grab the latest fb2k release here. Just one note before to begin : don't forget to check Optional Components during installation otherwhise you can't make these steps correctly.
That's all... Last edited by Kurtnoise; 17th February 2005 at 14:04. |

@Kurtnoise
Thanks for posting that . I hope you don't mind that I added a link to the DTS FAQ.

The easiest way comes with BeSweet, but you must realize that the ac3enc from BeSweet isn't very good...In addition, the only one free ac3_encoder seems to be ffmpeg. But still buggy...

Are you going to add this feature for your GUI program? DVD dts ripped -(transcode the bit rate/sampling rate)-> CD dts format (or reverse the process).

Nice prog fb2k!
I try to do a dts -> mp3 conversion, but fb2k is giving this error message: INFO (foo_clienc) : CLI encoder: LAME.EXE INFO (foo_clienc) : Destination file: file://F:\Video\Project predator\001 PREDATOR DVD2AVI DTS T02 DELAY -5ms.mp3 INFO (foo_clienc) : Source file: file://F:\Video\Project predator\PREDATOR DVD2AVI DTS T02 DELAY -5ms.dts INFO (foo_clienc) : 48000Hz 24bps 2ch ERROR (foo_clienc) : Writing to encoder failed ERROR (foo_clienc) : Encoding failed ERROR (foo_diskwriter) : Conversion failed. Conversion to wav is no problem, but trying to convert wav --> mp3 gives a similar error as above.. |
