eac3to Dolby TrueHD to DTS

[gargantua]

Hello,

i'm trying to convert a Dolby TrueHD track (.thd) to DTS, using eac3to.

But encode doesn't start, here the log :


I:\>eac3to 1_4_audio.thd english.dts
This doesn't seem to be a valid EVO/VOB file ($0).
TrueHD, 5.1 channels, 48khz
Decoding with libav/ffmpeg...
Writing WAVs...
Creating file "english.R.wav"...
Creating file "english.L.wav"...
Creating file "english.LFE.wav"...
Creating file "english.C.wav"...
Creating file "english.SL.wav"...
Creating file "english.SR.wav"...
The original audio track has a constant bit depth of 16 bits.
Encoding DTS <1536kbps> with Surcode...
Found Surcode DTS Encoder version 1.0.29.0.
Pressing the Surcode "Encode" button didn't seem to work...
Closing Surcode...


I read that Surcode don't like long name, but it's not the case here? What can i do ?

:thanks:

Don't know about getting eac3to to work with Surcode (or visa versa) but, you could always write the mono wavs yourself

eac3to "1_4_audio.thd" "english.wavs"

and manually encode them with Surcode. :p

I tought about that.

But actually, i don't know how to get wavs... files are delete at the end :(

Just use the command he posted above.
eac3to 1_4_audio.thd english.wavs
instead of 'eac3to 1_4_audio.thd english.dts'
(don't forget the 's', wavs, not wav)

This will create the individual WAV files for each channel (and not delete them). Then use Surcode to encode the wav files manually.
