DVD-Audio ripper - Page 8

Is it possible to use any of these tools to take audio from a DVD-Audio disk and put it into a format that can be played on a regular CD player?

Sure--you just have to resample the wav files to 44.1kHz and burn a CD. Most DVD-A discs contain tracks that play on conventional DVD video players too.

Yep just managed to backup my matellica Black DVD audio. One non DVD players it plays fine. On DVD audio players it stops after 30 seconds. My play Linn unidisc checks for watermarking.

I have found though even if you rip the Wavs from DVD ripper tool you can play these wavs using Jet audio a 500mb+ wav will work fine. Windows media player 9.0 does not support this type of file.

Well I'm exhuming the proverbial dead horse from its grave. Where can these programs be found nowadays that they're not on rarewares or any p2p that I can find?? I've got a nice DVD-A of The Grateful Dead - American Beauty that I would like to convert to

A) 5.1 24/96 FLAC for my PC and Sennheiser HD580 cans

B) 2.0 16/44 ALAC for my iPod!

If anyone has a recent copy of these hard to find apps, point me in their direction? Thanks!

Got it working. Love it! Thanks all!

Is this method still working? I have recently seen a lot of DVD-A on forums and some torrents, does anyone know if there's a new way to rip DVD-Audio or what?

Yes, this method is still working.

@gfxnow - I might remind you that we provide no help to people with torrents. I know your post said nothing about you doing this, but just be a bit careful about it. See rule 6.

I am curious if the people who have ripped DVD-Audio disks using this method are using a Creative Audigy sound card for playback.

I know that the unripped encrypted, watermarked DVD-Audio disks do require the Audigy to play. But is it possible to rip and playback unencrypted copies using a different sound card?

I just bought a new Onkyo SE-200 sound card and don't want to "upgrade." : p

I am trying to figure out if ripping the DVD-Audio will allow me to play it (the card will support 24bit/192Khz 2 channel and 24/96 7.1 channel).

Cheers!

currently there's no way of removing digital watermarks... or maybe i am missing out on something.

Correct. Right now, watermarks can't be removed.

You can rip the music files to wav files and play them in music player. That's what I did with all my DVD-A discs. I compressed them to WMA lossless and play them in Foobar2000. It is not an easy process though.

Well its reassuring that at least that approach is possible.

What I was really wondering though is would WinDVD or PowerDVD play watermarked but unencrypted DVD-Audio disks (i.e. ripped to remove the encryption) through a sound card other then the Audigy. Can anyone confirm this?

Hi - I have just got a copy of the DVD-A tools but am having trouble getting them to run.

DVD-A explorer appears to work OK - I can see the file structure on my DVD-A disc - "Harvest" by Neil Y.
DVD-A Ripper is located in directory "c:\program files\dvda stuff\dvdaripper.
WINDVD7 is installed and working OK - it plays DVD-A layer of my disc.

If I follow instructions and type "DVDARipper d:\audio_ts e:\harvest" I get the following error message:
"Windows cannot find 'DVDARipper'. Make sure you have typed the name correctly..."

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I get similar message when I try to use PCCM ripper.

BTW - I rid on the thread about DVDA discs which are merely upsamples of 48kHz recordings - this sucks. Has anyone analysed "harvest"?? Is it for real hi-res or an upsample?

Thanks for assistance and guidance.

Run this from within "c:\program files\dvda stuff\dvdaripper"

OK, thanks, I've got it now, PPCM Ripper is working ... sort of. I am backing up wav files to my hard drive, but when I play them in foobar (have tried other software as well) they play at twice normal speed. Sound Forge still shows tham as 192k, 24 bit files but has same problem. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Hazard

hazard500 · 16th May 2007, 12:51

I've thought more about the problem described in my previous post. I have checked WinDVD and, when it fires up, it clearly states that it handles, among other formats, "PCM 92k/24bit". So, I am not surprised that I cannot get 192k playback to work.
Is it possible to use PPCM Ripper to get files at 192k? Does the soundcard make any difference? I am using on-board soundcard which is only good for 96khz, but i have read that PPCM ripper intercepts the signal before it gets to the soundcard so this should not make any differece.
has anybody succeeded in ripping 192k wav files?
Thanks, hazard

I haven't been able to get WinDVD7 to play the DVD-Audio layer of my disc. Subsequently, I can't get PPCMRipper to save .wav files of anything. When I mount a DVD which has both the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders, I can only navigate the VIDEO_TS menus.

I've checked the box labeled "Enable DVD-Audio Navigation" in the Preference page of the Setup dialog box. I've also made sure the default audio device is set to 5.1 surround sound speakers in my control panel. Is there anything else I need to do?

Is this dependent on having a specific soundcard? I have an M-Audio Delta Audiophile 24/96 2 channel soundcard. That still should not prohibit WinDVD from recognizing the DVD-Audio layer.

calinb · 24th December 2007, 11:02

I don't know about WinDVD 7 but, as I recall, the first version of WinDVD that supported DVD-Audio (was it WinDVD 5 "Gold"?) only supported the Creative Labs soundcards that supported DVD-Audio themselves. (The Audigy cards where Creative Labs supplied a DVD-A software player with the soundcard.)
