extracting center speaker channel from DVD

[analographi]

Hi

Maybe I'm just too stupid, but I really tried to get the information in former topics..

I want to extract a single audio channel from a DVD.
I have the contents of the DVD on my harddisk, I just draged and dropped them there. "video_ts" and a lot of *.vob files.

I tried DVD2Avi, ac3dec and more.

I can downmix the 5.1 channels to two, but not extract a single channel.

I need it to work with DTS AND AC3

In the end I need a *.wav or *.mp3...
I have not the posibility to record analog channels.

Can anybody help me?
Thank you

use smartripper and rip audio to a single ac3 file in stream mode ..

load ac3 in besweet and convert to 6 mono wav

Download Elisoft codec pack and you will find there and aplication named
azidgui where you can select and de-select any chanel of ac3 and convert it to a wav file, stereo or surround compatible or mono.

How do you get Smartripper to output an AC3 file? It only outputs VOB files for me.

Select Movie
Select Stream processing
Select Demux to another file
(adjust your 'settings' first to Max files size)
Press start

You'll end up with an m2v file (video) and a vob file which will be the ac3 file.

You could try loading your Ac3 into HeadAc3he too. That will allow you to select which of the channels you want to convert.

load ac3 , select output as 6 wav (on middle right) , hit ac3 to wav button , leave everything else as default ..


make sure you select a name and location for your files in the right box ..

Can someone please give me a step by step guide for this with Smartripper and Besweet? I use Smartripper, but can only produce a VOB file from it. Am I supposed to use stream processing to extract only the 5.1 track? Do I demux or do a direct stream?

At any rate, when I process the file with Besweet I end up with either 6 WAVs containing only the basic 2-channel tracks, corrupted WAVs or nothing at all.

I've been trying all this for nearing a week now with zero results, and getting very frustrated!
