open source MLP/TrueHD decoder

Hi,

I just wanted to point out that there is a thread on FFmpeg-devel with a patch to decode MLP/TrueHD audio. It has not yet been included in FFmpeg and is still being revised by the author, Ian Caulfield, but it's still interesting to experiment with in the meantime.

Check out the thread here:

Awesome, that's really wonderfull news! I dream of FFDShow combined with E-AC3 and TruHD decoders from FFMPEG, someday...
Thanks for the news...

is eac3 already supported or is this "only" planned yet to be done?
any information about dts-hd? is there anything related planned to be able to decode the full track and not only the core sometime in the future? then the complete audio support for HD DVDs and Blue-Rays would be perfect with ffdshow

edit: just to be 100% sure, when the final version is done it is planned to work without applying DRC, downconverting to 16-bit and applying dialog normalization, right?

yeah eac3 is supported through a patch to mplayer and ffmpeg, it just hasn't been added completely, and ffdshow still hasn't added it yet either. So it's there just not being used all of the way yet.

Awesome. I suppose that DVD-Audio tools can come to better fruition now as a result also.

On the flip side, I wonder how long it'll take to get a working open-source encoder for it.

wow, does that mean MLP and eac3 do work now already properly in this version, without applying DRC and normalization?

will DTS-HD also be supported in the future? would be great, then we got all new HD sounds covered

I added Kurtnoise's eac3 code into ffdshow on my pc, it works, but there is noise in left channel, the other 4 channels are all ok(I tested it on 2 HD-DVD discs), does any one has any idea with the problem?

Hi,

The ffmpeg team included the true-hd/mlp patch into the main branch five days ago

They included the parser, not the decoder.

Why not include the decoder as well? What good is the parser without the decoder?

Is it that they don't think it is quite "ready"?

Yes, indeed. They are still discussing and correcting it:
