Converting DTS Core to AC3

Hi,

When I remux a blu-ray I use the video, dts and the pgs subs tracks. I also like to have a ac3 5.1 stream in the remux. I use that stream for my Sonos Playbar. I read that it is possible with creating a profile. Can somebody help me or point me in the right direction?

Normally, MakeMKV takes the highest-quality track for a language. You can change this by modifying the default selection rule on the Advanced tab of preferences (only visible if you turn Expert mode on in the General tab), or by creating/editing the profile.

If you are going to decide later what tracks to keep/throw away, change the default rule to just "+sel:all".

What I want is convert the dts-core track to ac3 5.1. I've installed the "dtsdecoderdll.dll" in makemkv directory and set it in the advanced settings box.

When I now try to remux a movie I'll get this error:

Code: Select all

Saving 1 titles into directory C:/Video/Fifty_Shades_of_Grey using profile 'AC3' from file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\MakeMKV/DTS-CoreToAc3.mmcp.xml'
FFMPEG_ERROR: FFDEC001: [dca @ 0000000022c172e0] Overread auxiliary data by 32 bits

Opslaan titel 11 naar bestand C:/Video/Fifty_Shades_of_Grey/Fifty_Shades_of_Grey_(2015)_t11.mkv mislukt
0 titels opgeslagen, 1 mislukt
Do you have any idea how to fix this problem?

This is a known issue, but I haven't gotten any response as to a possible fix. I reported it here: http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8654
