Re: Fast bulk audio conversion

MakeMKV was the first and only tool to brging DTS-HD decoding to the world, but that changed long ago. Few years back an open source libcdadec popped out of nowhere featuring open-source DTS-HD decoder and was adopted by ffmpeg. Recent builds of ffmpeg do extract DTS-HD flawlessly. And, given MakeM...

Re: Fast bulk audio conversion

After a rip with makemkv (checkbox DTS HD MA set) and a subsequent demux of the mkv with tsMuxeR the conversion to FLAC was successful.

There is a soft limit for 384 tracks, after which MakeMKV will start do things more slowly, but really track count should be unlimited. I would apprecia...

Fast bulk audio conversion

The main reason for me to use makemkv is to convert DTS-HD streams into FLAC. I haven't found any other program that is capable of doing this and therefore im stuck it. But there are a couple of problems that are bugging me: makemkv only converts mkv files with less then ~13 audio Tracks, if it cont...
