haali media splitter ( open evo not raw vc-1 stream)
--> Connect to haali matroska muxxer. or to ffdshow for direct playback ( will output 29,76 fps) with the remuxx in MKV you can get it to play at 23.976 fps

TSReader shows me only 2 audio tracks and 2 video tracks. I assume that the second video is in fact LPCM track but how to extract this whole track to one file?

Yes, the 2nd "video track" should be LPCM. I'm not sitting in front of a PC with TSReader, so this is only a rough outline from memory:

1. Choose file.dll as your source, and open the m2ts file.
2. Choose File -> Stop Source. This will cause TSReader to stop playing the m2ts file.
3. There is a pulldown menu to Record PIDs. Choose the PIDs you want to record, select the option to record to separate files, and it will prompt you for a folder to demux the PIDs into.
4. Choose File -> Restart source, and TSreader will demux your PIDs starting from the beginning of the m2ts file.

Beyond that, I'm not sure how to manipulate the binary LPCM file. It probably is NOT raw LPCM but will likely be in some kind of elementary stream container with PTS, etc.

Both decoder work for me. Don't know which one is better.

I don't have the cpu to test playback anyway :)

tried it but it doesnt work for me. i checked the filters used in mpc and its always sonics. if i unregister those then i get no playback at all.

tried choosing libavcodec and wmv9 in both vfw and video decoder configs - no joy.

you have to put the movie in a mkv container. Like written few posts up :)

Thanks, works fine now. I'd say wmv9 decoder is better as libavcodec still can't decode artifactfree.

All we need now is a way to decode DD+.

You should be able to use Goldwave to play the samples, but you can only play 2 channels at once. I have a tool to extract a channel pair, but a short (50 to 100 MB) sample of a .m2ts with LPCM would be good to test with.

I've also updated xport to demux LPCM streams:

Hi, thnaks for fast respond. I tried your newest version of xport but i still get only 2 audio tracks, LPCM is missing. Is there any tool to show me if this track is really in there and what number he has?
Or if you have something that can split m2ts file, i can send you this sample

Edit: I used your head tool and now i have 50MB of sample file. Where do you want me to upload it?

Hi again,

I had some free time the last few days and I decided to write my first guide: a very simple and short guide to backing up HD-DVD VC-1 discs (video only for now) to x264 using only free software under Windows Vista (it might work on XP)... Mainly for people who want to backup their HD-DVDs but don´t have the time to browse and/or read the forums...

Can I put it up here on Doom9? How do I go about doing that?

Thanks...

Put it in a zip and attach it to a post, or upload it to free webspace (like googlepages) and offer a link. Uploading it saves waiting time for attachment approval, makes it easier to browse, and makes it indexable by search engines, though.

For me, xport worked well on all titles with LPCM I tried. The not so well part is that I am unable to play it or otherwise open it with anything. Is it because of the fact it's 24 bit or some missing header etc? (hmm, tried only on samples, maybe I should try on a full title).

I also went through the guide and can say that it's decent job for the starter !
but I think that usage proportion Vista vs. XP right now is like 1:20, so the guide for XP is much more necesary ! :)
Anyway I think there are very minor changes in XP considering this guide if there is some at all ...
And we can get out stereo sound already and it is only wise to show how to incorporate this stereo together with video, cause there will be around 20% (my vague estimate :rolleyes: ) that would be satisfied with stereo only and no need for 5.1 or better ...

Sorry, insomnia caught up with me and I had to crash for a few hours... I´m on holidays here in my country and thus the spare time.

Yes, you are right, there is a pic missing... I´ll fix it and post the .zip file again... About the audio conversion: has anyone been able to extract 5.1 sound out of the DD+ tracks? I think that only stereo from and HD-DVD won´t be very satisfying for most people... Then again, I may be wrong...

About putting the guide in the Guides section, how do I go about getting Doom9 to approve of it? Do you guys have any suggestions for adding or changes other than sound? I was thinking about already uploading the guide with instructions for the subtitle tracks, but I can´t get SUPRead to work withouth giving Memory Access Violation errors in Vista, so...

If you put the option settings of evodemux (pic 6) first, the pic 5 is not neccessary.
So pic6, pic4 instead of pic4, pic5, pic6

You should be able to listen to bits0001.mpa in Goldwave. When it asks you for the raw file format, choose "PCM signed 16 bit, big endian, stereo" and 48000 Rate(Hz).

For multi-channel audio, we'll have to decide what the best raw file format is. Either one file wit all channels, or multiple files with a pair of channels each.

Suppose I demux the EVO to VC1/AC3/SUP files, then I reencode the VC1 into an h264 HD-DVD compliant file.

My goal would be to then reauthor (or remux) the h264 to replace the demuxed VC1 and remux h264/AC3/SUP back to a .EVO file to replace the original on the disc.

Hopefully this would mean I could reburn the HDDVD content, only with my reencoded h264 to a DVDR-DL.

the big question is -

how can we generate .MAP file for the new authored/muxed EVO, I managed to make a .EVO with scenarist 4.1, but it only builds it in IFO-based structure, so no .MAPs.

Thanks for that, i will definitely try. Now the only thing is to find out to what file put multichannel, as you said. I think best will be 6 mono wavs or 1 multiwav, if possible.

I have to disagree with you. i am also converting HD-DVD to 720p but i would love to have also 5.1 sound (DTS would be the best choice)

Hello everybody,

I am surprised that nobody in this forum noticed that the so-called 2.0 output delivered by the IntervideoAudioDecoder is in fact a Dolby Prologic II signal containing all the information needed for channel routing.

Starting from that evidence, it is easy to upmix to 5.1 channels with very good results, see:

http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=57736

I have personally reencoded a couple of HD-DVDs DD+ tracks into AC3-5.1 using this technique.
As the IntervideoAudioProcessorFX is an active filter using patented software from Dolby, the output is like to be the best for such an upmix.

You will be surprised by an excellent centering of the voices as well as excellent surrounding effects. Even did I notice actual stereo in the rear channels. Friends of mine have been completely mistaken by the result ("whouah....such a sound!". No comment...)

Of course, the DirectX 2GB limit can be overcome by splitting the 2.0 track into 50-minute parts prior to upconverting, giving smaller-than-2GB 6-channel wav files. The split 5.1 files are then reassembled in VEGAS, using the 2.0 track for synchro.

Why dont you give it a try?

I will be posting a tutorial on BinnewZ (french) by the end of the week and will translate it as soon as possible.

For the intervideo filter, you probably need to get this rev:
Binsearch: Windvd.8.Hd-Dvd.Blu-Ray

In the meanwhile:
http://www.binnewsgroup.com/binnewz/index.php?act=tutorial&CODE=03&id=92
Last part "ENCODAGE AUDIO" to get the 2.0 wav file.

Then the upmix:

FileSource(async) "in-2ch.wav" => WaveParser => IntervideoAudioProcessorFx => WAVdest => FileWriter "out-6ch.wav"

I will provide you with a hard-wired "upmix.grf" file which takes c:\track2.wav and outputs c:\upmix6.wav

This patched GRF file will prevent you from having to HEXedit the output file as required in:

Merci pour le guide sur Binnews, Jack.
That's good to finally here something out of a DD+ track !

Do you know if it's possible to feed Scenarist Nav Filter directly with a DD+ track (like a ddp file) ?
Does it work for Dolby TrueHD audio tracks too ?

From what I understand every E-AC-3 stream contains a 640Kbps "AC-3 core" that can be extracted by DD+ capable software.

Most of the DD+ soundtracks on HD DVD movies that I have seen have been at 640Kbps (only a few have been higher).

Am I correct when I assume that audio information found in a 640Kbps E-AC-3 stream is identical to the "AC-3 core" of the same stream?

What about DTS? Why nobody wants to make DTS audio track (where avaiable)?

Shortly: No.
It needs a partially re-encode to get a normal ac3 sound.
PowerDVD can do it during playback...

And one more thing, what is MLP audio track? It should some sort of lossless audio, right? Is there some way to decode it to something playable, for example DTS or DD?"Meridian Lossless Packing" a lossless compression technique for audio that is the base for Dolby TrueHD. For more information see:

Well, another DD+ decoder. So we know Intervideo audio decoder outputs 2.0 instead of 5.1.
asasadad_1 mentioned that Sonic decoder pack can work with EVOB/VC1/DD+ at http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=962436#post962436

I tried sonic decoder pack on two PCs, works on one PC, does not work on another PC. No idea what's wrong.

Anyway, I modified DTS/AC3/DD+ source filter which can work with sonic audio decoder. The source filter I posted a few pages eariler does not work(need small tweak). I'm pretty sure the output is real 5.1. You may want to give it a try

For the sonic decoder pack, PM me please.

Then the upmix:

FileSource(async) "in-2ch.wav" => WaveParser => IntervideoAudioProcessorFx => WAVdest => FileWriter "out-6ch.wav"



Thanks for your ideas, but that connecting filesource and waveparser crashes graphedit. Any idea why?
Furthermore I do not have a filter called wavdest? Where to get from?

I always use DTS track if it is available.

And thatswhy i am interested how to decode MLP or LPCM because it can be passed into DTS :)

Try loading your 2.0 wav into filesource(sync), then click-right on the output pin and render it. Just keep the first two filters and delete the rest. Then try to connect the leftover output pin to the IntervideoAudioProcessorFx filter.

WAVdest.ax is part of the graphedit pack. You just have to register it in a DOS-like window:
regsvr32.exe wavdest.ax

What about DTS? Why nobody wants to make DTS audio track (where avaiable)?I think that 1,509 Mbps DTS is the best sounding multichannel signal that can be sent over an S/PDIF interface (please correct me if I'm wrong here). If that is the case it's what I would like on most backups if the source has a lossless audio track.

I’ve been looking into MLP track, it’s not a regular MLP as it was in DVD- Audio.

A bunch of DVD Audio authoring software out there wouldn’t recognize the MLP extracted with EVODemux. I think it’s encapsulated into Dolby TrueHD format somehow and as we know, there is no Dolby TrueHD software decoder yet.

If we’ll be able somehow decode this track, we would be able to encode it to another lossless multichannel codec like FLAC or WMA and add it to a new container, and play on computer without HDMI.
