I've 2 files: test.264 & test.aa3
each could be playable through latest MPC-HC(with LAV Filters) separately

but I don't know how to remux them into a single file...
I know there's way to re-encode atrac3+ to WAV, but now that atrac3+ is playable directly, I think remux should be the best since atrac3+ is lossy...

is there any way to do it?

thx!

I'm not aware of any muxing applications that support atrac3.aa3 audio files. The last time I checked Matroska did not, which would be the obvious choice today ;)

If I were you, I would convert that audio file to a lossless format (FLAC or ALAC) and then remux it to an MKV or MP4 file.

Things would be different if you had a "normal" ATRAC3 stream though, because it is possible to wrap atrac3 in Matroska via the ACM-compatible mode.

atrac3 ≠ atrac3plus

NOTICE: ffmpeg is able to remux atrac3 from .RM to .WAV, but it cannot remux atrac3+ from .OM* to .WAV.

Thank you!

seems convert to FLAC is still the best choice currently
