Convert audio file
A bit delusional question ...
Is there any way to convert ac3 file to true-hd? I know it's a bit ridiculous ... but I do not want it so that the audio quality is supposed to improve ... I want to merge 2 audio files to 1 - and one is ac3 and the other is true-hd And the part of the ac3 is something like 10 seconds ... so I have to change it to true-hd |

You can grab FFmpeg from the link bellow

Ffmpeg, It's a command line program.
So, where Tebasuna51 posted Code:
ffmpeg -i "INPUT.ac3" -strict -2 -acodec truehd "OUTPUT.thd" Code:
D:\SomePath\ffmpeg.EXE -i "D:\AudioInput\INPUT.ac3" -strict -2 -acodec truehd "D:\AudioOutput\OUTPUT.thd"

You could maybe try this [should at least work for ac3, maybe also some other input formats, totally untested]
Bat file Batch Processes all audio files in INDIR folder that match the given file extensions, and converts into type thd in the OUTDIR folder. AC3_To_THD.BAT Code:
REM We DO NOT LIKE SPACES IN FILE NAMES (REM == REMark ie comment) REM We DO NOT LIKE ACCENTS IN FILE NAMES. setlocal REM Where to Find ffmpeg set FFMPEG="C:\BIN\ffmpeg.exe" REM Where to get input file, No terminating Backslash, "." = current directory [EDIT: I.E., same as BAT File] set INDIR="." REM Where to place output file, No terminating Backslash. [EDIT: Or eg, set OUTDIR="D:\OUTPUT" ] set OUTDIR=".\OUTPUT" REM Can POSSIBLY add other file extensions to convert, SPACE separated eg " *.eac3", no idea if will work FOR %%A IN ( *.ac3 ) DO ( %FFMPEG% -i "%INDIR%\%%A" -strict -2 -acodec truehd "%OUTDIR%\%%~nxA.THD" ) Pause Extensions of input filetypes that are processed are shown in Purple [SPACE separated], eg *.ac3 *.eac3 (Where above we add SPACE separated " *.eac3", you can add more extensions in similar format, NO IDEA if any extensions other than *.ac3 will work as required in the conversion, [I only ever bother with Stereo]). Above bat file not tested. [I'm not sure what "-strict -2" does, or if applies to non ac3 input files] (If it dont work with non *.ac3 extensions, then use only *.ac3 in Purple wildcard file extensions) To use above (with 1st BLUE line edited to PATH to FFMPEG.EXE, other two BLUE lines untouched), create some directory eg "CONVERT", inside it, put the bat file and also create an CONVERT\OUTPUT folder. Copy ac3 input files to the CONVERT folder, run the bat file. Output thd files in CONVERT\OUTPUT. Alternative additional mod, Change 2nd BLUE line Input Path to set INDIR=".\INPUT", also create an CONVERT\INPUT folder, as well as CONVERT\OUTPUT. Put Input files in Input folder, leaving CONVERT\ for conversion *.BAT files only. EDIT: This is similar style BAT file, Batch converts files of specified extensions, ALL to 16 bit Stereo WAV Edit similar to above Bat. Audio_to_16Bit_Stereo_WAV.BAT Code:
REM Convert audio to 16 bit stereo REM We DO NOT LIKE SPACES IN FILE NAMES (REM == REMark ie comment) REM We DO NOT LIKE ACCENTS IN FILE NAMES. setlocal REM Where to Find ffmpeg set FFMPEG="C:\BIN\ffmpeg.exe" REM Where to get input file, No terminating Backslash, "." = current directory set INDIR="." REM Where to place output file, No terminating Backslash. set OUTDIR=".\OUTPUT" FOR %%A IN (*.thd *.dts *.ac3 *.w64 *.aac *.m4a *.eac3 *.wav) DO ( %FFMPEG% -i "%INDIR%\%%A" -vn -acodec pcm_s16le -ac 2 "%OUTDIR%\%%~nxA.WAV" ) Pause -acodec pcm_s16le = Pulse Code Modulated, 16 bit, Little Endian. -ac 2 = 2 audio channels. nxA.WAV = WAV file output.

CapricornX10X,
I answer you here instead of in PM. Sorry, but now I've tried the BAT files, and have NOT been able to get them to work when anything other than INDIR=".", Dont know what I've done to break them, think BAT template INDIR used to work years ago, but not now. (Was shamlessly stolen from some good CLI Command guy's bat). but here, this does work:- https://www.mediafire.com/file/dablj...ONVERT.7z/file Has Code:
CONVERT\ CONVERT\BIN\ CONVERT\BIN\FFMPEG.Exe CONVERT\OUTPUT\ CONVERT\Audio_to_16Bit_Stereo_WAV.BAT CONVERT\AC3_To_THD.BAT [With *.ac3 and *.dts] ################### Has anybody has a clue why the BAT file dont work when "Set INDIR=".\INPUT" (and also when CONVERT\INPUT\ exists with *.ac3 files) ? The *.dts conversion thing shows something like "Only implemented fror Mono And Stereo" message when convert to THD, maybe future version ffmpeg fixes that. (used version ffmpeg is only a few months old I think). AC3_To_THD.BAT [With *.ac3 and *.dts] Code:
REM We DO NOT LIKE SPACES IN FILE NAMES (REM == REMark ie comment) REM We DO NOT LIKE ACCENTS IN FILE NAMES. setlocal REM Where to Find ffmpeg set FFMPEG=".\BIN\ffmpeg.exe" REM Where to get input file, No terminating Backslash, "." = current directory [EDIT: I.E., same as BAT File] set INDIR="." REM Where to place output file, No terminating Backslash. [EDIT: Or eg, set OUTDIR="D:\OUTPUT" ] set OUTDIR=".\OUTPUT" REM Can POSSIBLY add other file extensions to convert, SPACE separated eg " *.eac3", no idea if will work FOR %%A IN ( *.ac3 *.dts ) DO ( %FFMPEG% -i "%INDIR%\%%A" -strict -2 -acodec truehd "%OUTDIR%\%%~nxA.THD" ) Pause Code:

CapricornX10X, As said in PM, please post in thread.
I dont like PM, and am nearly always about 98%->99% full, and have to choose some PM's to get rid of, just to say post in thread. You say that the batch file dont work. Does line from post #7 work, ie [modded for your file and input / output directories of course] Code:
D:\SomePath\ffmpeg.EXE -i "D:\AudioInput\INPUT.ac3" -strict -2 -acodec truehd "D:\AudioOutput\OUTPUT.thd" If not, does it play in some media player ? What it does do might also be handy, ie error messages. EDIT: It does have the ".ac3" extension, YES ? [EDIT: If not, then what extension]

Can you down this small (4.6MB) AC3 file.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/svg2n...nwf/A.AC3/file and try again with the convert whotsit, copy into the CONVERT folder, and Double click "AC3_To_THD.BAT", output will be in OUTPUT folder. Works here with exact same CONVERT folder upped to Mediafire several posts ago. Source file was just 60 secs of mp3 podcast talking converted to AC3. AC3 Code:
General Complete name : C:\Z\A.AC3 Format : AC-3 Format/Info : Audio Coding 3 File size : 4.58 MiB Duration : 1 min 0 s Overall bit rate mode : Constant Overall bit rate : 640 kb/s Audio Format : AC-3 Format/Info : Audio Coding 3 Mode extension : CM (complete main) Format settings, Endianness : Big Duration : 1 min 0 s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 640 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel positions : Front: L R Sampling rate : 44.1 kHz Frame rate : 28.711 FPS (1536 spf) Bit depth : 16 bits Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 4.58 MiB (100%) Code:
General Complete name : C:\CONVERT\OUTPUT\A.AC3.THD Format : TrueHD File size : 7.79 MiB Overall bit rate mode : Variable Audio Format : TrueHD Bit rate mode : Variable Maximum bit rate : 9 597 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel positions : Front: C Sampling rate : 44.1 kHz Frame rate : 1 102.500 FPS (40 spf) Compression mode : Lossless Maybe I should have used (or converted to) AC3 to 48000Hz. Anyways, it does convert whether complies with any kind of spec of not.

Hi everyone friends ..
thanks very much It took me a while to figure out ... but I eventually succeeded, along with useac3to This allowed me to perform the conversion successfully. But when I take the new thu file and put it in tsmuxer along with the video file. And I mux ... I play powerdvd and there is no audio Thanks StainlessS Thanks Barough Thanks tebasuna51 Last edited by CapricornX10X; 28th June 2022 at 16:03. |

Just so you know... The last time I tested the Dolby TrueHD audio encoder in FFmpeg, I wasn't able to hear them using my OPPO UDP-203 player!
You might be better off converting everything to 'lossy' Dolby Digital or even 'lossless' FLAC...
