DVD-A to bluray?

[bassgoonist]

So i was playing around with ripping a dvd-a. I discovered the audio encoding is VERY similar to dolby truehd. Is there a way I could encode something as dolby truehd, make it the sound audio track of an avchd file with a blank video and play it back on my bluray player? I know my bluray supports avchd playback from dvds and sd cards, so...how would I go about this.
I suppose LPCM might just work as well...

Ok, i have it as a pcm file...does that help me any? :-p

I don't know a free TrueHD encoder but BluRay/AVCHD suport also uncompresed audio.
Best than extract like LPCM is extract to WAV (if <4GB) or W64 (if >4GB).
After you can use TsMuxer to mux WAV/W64.

I know that Dolby TrueHD employs a part of MLP, but how compatible with DTH MA a MLP track can be is only a matter of trial-and-error and may be valid for only a specified model.
I don't know any free certified Dolby encoders, either.

Dolby TrueHD has various flavours, I think you wanna say Master Audio, because only this is lossless.
Really? TrueHD isn't lossless?
Well, no problem for me I always use Flac, but is good to know.

Of course, by definition can't exist, "certified" implies pay.

My mistake, I confound it with DTS. I'll edit my previous post accordingly.

my player says it supports playback of AVCHD on sd or dvd...but when I put a m2ts file on an sd card...it doesn't see anything...:-/
It's a panasonic dmp-bd80

Give a try to multiAVCHD (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=143744). It will create proper structure and it supports audioAVCHD and audioBD compilations. You can't just put a file on your SD card and expect it to work. multiAVCHD has special output for Panasonic and a lot of users use it with their Panasonic BD players.

Yeah that's what I found yesterday. I thought I made another post but I guess I didn't. It works amazing...as long as you click the button for panasonic players >.<
