I'm trying to fix some bad frames in an AC3 file. I was able to locate a couple of tools, but I don't have a clue about using them properly. The Tools are:

ac3fix

ac3cutframes

I supposed Both of these programs work when your drag the ac3 file on their icon, but nothing happens. When I try openning them by double-clicking their icons, I get a DOS window that appears for a micro-second and then disappears.

You need to run ac3fix from the dos command line. To fix an ac3 file called "broken.ac3" just type

ac3fix broken.ac3 fixed.ac3

Thanks. Amazingly, AC3TOOL managed to encode the currpted file properly.
