PURPOSE:
This software is designed to convert audio files between different formats.
This is the first real beta release… so at this point you can only convert MP3 to AMR, MP3 to AC3 and you can resample MP3 files. You can select a segment of the file and encode it (just because someone asked me that to make mobile phone ringings :0)
All the tools needed to make it work are included on the installation pack and they are (at this point) ffmpeg.exe, mediainfo.dll and AviSynth 2.5.6 that will be Installed if not detected on your system.
Please, inform me about any problems and/or bugs you may find.

* Fully translated to English.
-------------------------------------------------------------
A very special thank you goes to my wife, my son and to my daughter... they
are the "main victims" of the time I spent developing this tool 
Thanks to:
* Desassossego for the all beta testing.
* Another special thanks goes to Xena for all the testing, patience
and tips along the way (past, present and future lol).

* To Fabrice Bellard the creator of FFMPEG
* To all the FFMPEG development team and all that contributed for its
evolution and improvement.
* To Jordan Russel, the creator of InnoSetup.
* To Zenitram creator of MediaInfo
NOTE: THIS IS A BETA SOFTWARE… THAT MEANS IT MAY HAVE SEVERAL BUGS AND GLITCHES… IF YOU USE IT YOU ARE AGREEING THAT YOU ARE WILLING TO LOOSE YOUR PATIENCE AND INSULT THE DEVELOPER… JUST DON’T TELL HIM ABOUT IT :0)

25th September 2006 - v.0.1.3 beta
* * Added "Portuguese" language. You can set your prefered language on the
Setup dialog (Menu "Tools" -> "Setup")
* * Added the possibility to choose the path to ffmpeg executable on the
Setup dialog -- this will give the possibility to use different versions.
NOTE: This software has been tested with the ffmpeg.exe included on the
Installer or the RAR package... if you're going to try a different version
I can't garantee that it will work.
* * Now, all the option selected will be saved. Next time you start the
application, the options will be set to your last selections (I hope :0))
* * Added a "Tags Display" feature. The data will be used to pass the tags to
the newly encoded file... on the previous releases the Tags were lost. You
can change the tags of your target file if you change the data before
encoding. The tags will be saved using the ID3 v 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4.
(ID3 tagging module by Mathias Kunter (www.magic-tagger.com))
* * Some minor bug corrections.
* * Some minor cosmetic changes

2nd October 2006 - v.0.1.4 beta
* At this point you can convert between MP3, AC3, MP2 formats, you can convert WMA to MP3, WAV to MP3, MP2 and AC3, MP3 to AMR and you can resample MP3, AC3 and MP2 files.
* Updated the Installer so now it has an "Update Only" option -- you can select the "update" option on the top of the "components selection" dialog.
* I removed the "'X' to 'Y'" modes -- what was I thinking?!?!. Now you just have to choose the output format... this is really beta, but it seems to be working fine. I haven't tested it on a completly "clean" system, 'cause I don't have one :0)
* Made a few corrections on the MP3 Tag module. The "Genre" was being tagged wrong and there was a conflict between versions that could make some software not recognize the tags correctly.
* Added a routine to correct the extension if you change the output format after setting the "output file" -- the extension will be changed according to the new output format.
* Added a "File Exists" warning that shall popup everytime the Output file name already exists.
* Added a "check for new versions" feature -- you can access its definitions on the Setup dialog -- this feature only accesses a remote file to get the latest version number... no data from the local system is collected or sent.
* Fixed a Bug on the AMR Bitrate combo introduced on version 0.1.3 beta
* Some minor bug corrections.
* Some cosmetic changes.

4th December 2006 - v.0.1.5 beta
First of all, I'm sorry for such a delay on a new release... my day job got pretty complicated on the last couple of months so my free time was really short... anyway... I think I'll manage to keep the updates on a regular bases at this point.
Thank you for all the support.
As always... feedback is more than welcome.
*Added WAV and AAC output formats.
*Added an "Abort" encode button... as it says... aborts the encoding process.
*Changed the default MP2/MPA bitrate to 224kbps... sorry about this one, I simply didn't noticed (Copy/Paste mistakes :0$). This is no big deal unless the user is a beginner and wants to make audio for VCD, SVCD or DVD... in that case, 224kbps is "suitable" for all.
*Corrections on the translation routine -- some items didn't got translated.
*To avoid unauthorized translations of the interface, I've introduced a routine that will re-write the language file everytime this application is started. If you want to translate the program to your mother language, please contact me through daudiok@gmail.com or rockassoftware@gmail.com, I'll be extremely glad to accept your contribution and you'll get the credits for your work printed on the Software Interface.
*Added a "Vista" option under Setup dialog. That option can be used to adapt the main window size to the new "Vista looks".
*Some minor bug corrections.
*Some minor cosmetic changes.
*Updated Translation routine for the new features.

hey Rockas!
you are Rock!!
this is the only tool i founded, that can encode a 6 channel ac3 Audio Stream.
i tried at least 5 tools ,including the ac3 codec with virtualdubmod but without success.
keep the good JOB!
since it is a beta it will nice to add a time remainig status when encoding ,and a possibility to manualy
choose the bitrate(by typing it).
and in the future.....maybe rip the sound from it's source(avi,vob,etc...).
don't stop man! this tool it's brilliant!

From now on, all the Audio will be frameserved through AviSynth that means that the presence of AviSynth on your system is a obligatory - this is not applied when the output format is WMA, this means that no "Normalize" or segments cut can be applied at this moment.
#
Updated the AviSynth version included on the Installer -- you may want want to uninstall the previous version... the installer will detect that AviSynt is not present on your system and will install a reduced version of AviSynth 2.5.7 -- if you want the full version you can get it at www.avisynth.org.
#
Updated FFMEG to a newer release compiled by Celtic Druid.
#
Added a Stereo To 5.1 UpMix feature -- at this point its only possible to make 6channels AC3 files -- A huge thank you to Rockaria and dimzon (doom9.org) for the base AVS(AviSynth) script provided through BeHappy.
*http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=104686.
*http://workspaces.gotdotnet.com/behappy
note: to use this feature you'll need SoxFilter (by Klaus Post) on your AviSynth plugins folder -- if you use the DAudioK Installer this filter will be installed under "tools/plugins" on DAudioK installation folder.
#
Changed the AC3 encodings from FFMPEG to QuEnc -- QuEnc is included on the self installer package and on the RAR Package -- you can point the path to QuEnc on the Setup dialog.
#
Added the WMA output format -- only the default WMA profiles will be available at this point... more advanced options will be added on next releases.
#
Added AVS and DTS as Input formats -- you can use AVS to encode your own custom scripts.
#
Added Real Audio audio files as Input Format (.ra and .rmj) - you may need to install Real Alternative so you can have the necessary DirectShow filters.
#
Updated MediaInfo to the latest version -- from now on the data (tags) from the audio files will be collected using the CLI of the latest version. It will be installed under DAudioK installations folder inside "Tools/MediaInfo".
#
Added a "normalize" option -- the 'normalization" will be performed through AviSynth.
#
Corrected a bug on the mp3 "channels set" routine.
#
Corrected the encoding volume -- the volume values were not working at all. I also changed the max volume to 100 -- the ffmpeg version in use doesn't increase the output files' volume.
#
Resized some interface components. Some words of the new languages weren't fitting on the space available.
#
Introduced an experimental "LOG" routine -- this will be pretty incomplete for the time being... I'm hoping to add some more usefull info on the next releases -- to visualize the Log you must activate its window under "File" menu.
#
The progress bar will be displaying the correct progress of the encoding process -- a huge thank you to jdobbs on this one.
#
Some minor bug corrections.
#
Some minor cosmetic changes.
#
Updated Translation routine for the new features
Note: To use wma encoding feature you may need to download WME 9 Series

disappoint.i have a movie with 2channels ac3 sound
and wanted to convert it to 6 channel 48000 without success.
when input was a demuxed sound file ac3(with virtualddubmod) app crash!
(ac3 2 channels --> ac3 6 channels)
when input was a pcm Wav file result was a 2 channel file, when choosed 6 channel 48000 for output(the 48000 was done)
when input was a saved Wav file result was a 2 channel file, when choosed 6 channel 48000 for output(the 48000 was done)
all the tests where made with the "Match Point" movie sample.
source input was ,ac3 2 channel file with a 192 bitrate.
** with prev beta ,i was able to get a 6 channel ac3, but not
encoded well has i wanted(conversation on center)
on develop, one of the most important issues, it's patient....
it's happen to everyone rockas....

Hi Rockas,
Custom installation doesn't work (for me): Whenever You choose to drop something (e.g. Quenc, Mediainfo) the app doesn't install properly (DAudioK.exe is missing).
Full Installation works ok.

tested the v0.1.8beta with the same sample file that i used before.
now ,pcm wav file, wich was decompressed via virtualdubmod, works fine. 
(included the down mix option)
i also tried to reencode the same, but didn't choosed pcm, i choosed "save wav" when
"direct stream" option was selected in virtualdubmod ,and the result was a silent file....
i was wondering if it's possible to get a really AC3 6channel audio file, when input it's ac3 2 channel...
when i added the successful encode to my avi file and tested it on my stand alone DVD player,
the result wasn't as an original 6 channel audio.
in a real one, conversation for example has to eared on center.
(maybe it's impossible to "fix" the source...  )

the non centered "conversation" only happened with the AC3 source or it happened with the WAV too? |
well....the ac3 2 channels(demuxed) to 6channels don't work in this version, so i couldn't test it.
when ac3 to ac3 is selected(source it's an ac3 demuxed audio file) the app Crash!.
i could only test wav to ac3.as i told before,i have decompressed the ac3 to a pcm wav file
and reencode it.

26th March 2007 - v.0.1.9 beta
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Fixed a bug on the Installer -- using the custom instalation option, the
main application files would not get installer -- Thank you to gsing for
pointing this out
- Fixed a bug related to an accidental FFMPEG executable launching -- this
could result in an encoding failure.
- updated Microsofts' "WMCmd.vbs" for the latest version, now it's possible
to use AVS scripts to fees the WM encoder so... the "normalization feature
is enabled -- my thanks to Zambelli
- corrected the "save as" procedure -- when output format was set to WMA it
wasn't working.
- added DTS files as source files -- a directshow filter will be installed
(dtssource.ax) to enable this function.
- Corrected the installer so WMA files can be encoded.

Any news on the problem converting DTS to AC3 whereby the centre channel (speech) ends up coming out of the right speaker? Would be great if this issue could be sorted out
Thanks
Andy
