Need Help! LPCM, TrueHD & 7.1ch to AC3!!

[botdvd]

Thank You.

Working With Handbrake, and these audio Sources don`t work as is. I wanna convert to AC3 or if Source has embedded AC3 track extract it.

At the end i wanna have a AC3 track, what is an easy way to get this done? Softwear needed?

Working With REMUX files, should i extract the audio file then convert/extract to AC3 then mux it back in. Then open the REMUX in Handbrake.


Convert LPCM & TrueHD to AC3

Extract embedded AC3

How do i know if AC3 is embedded

Please wanna encode my titles, don`t wanna delete them because i don`t understand.

Thank You.

Use only Handbrake. and want only AC3 audio.

Hope someone can help..

Under the audio tab can you see if the file contains ac3 audio (under the source dropdown). If it has ac3 then choose that track and choose codec: ac3 passthrough to copy/remux the audio.

If it doesn't contain an ac3 track then just choose codec: ac3 and 5.1 for example.

And as you are not ripping anything I'm moving you to our video conversion section.

Is that for LPCM and TrueHD?
Handbrake don`t support 7.1

AC3 supports only 5.1 channels. You can try ocenaudio for conversion of audio. Iam not sure if it support TrueHD, but it support wide range of formats.

I believe what I did recently was to use the latest Eac3 with HdBrStreamExtractor in order to change TrueHD over to AC3 then mux it back into a MKV I have with mkvtoolnix, I suppose that mkvmerge in that folder did the muxing.
