Thank you for the speedy reply, I've been tearing the hair out here. I don't know where I've gone wrong here, could somebody help me out please?

If you care about such things.Hi, I installed latest version of Ffmpeg and x264 from You could use ffdshow but as far as I know it's not 24bit. This is beneficial for those HD audio formats. From what i've been told it's the only 24bit flac codec. If I were ripping those audio formats i'd probably just leave them as they are and not use FLAC.
It just sends it straight to the speakers it's supposed to go to, same as if the AC3 audio was decoded by your receiver and then sent to the speakers. You receiver doesn't decode PCM as it's already been done. The audio has been decoded and encoded into FLAC so it's the same audio. So ripping a TrueHD or DTS-HD audio track to flac gives you 100% of the audio.
If you don't have that your player software such as powerdvd and arcsoft will down rez the audio.
The only way to bitstream this HD audio from your PC is with an expensive Asus HDAV card. People use FLAC primarily for lossless Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD so you get all the sound. The ArcSoft TrueHD and ArcSoft (E-)AC3 decoders are currently not supported by eac3to.įLAC is just for PCM audio. It supports every format and channel configuration that exists including 6.1 and 7.1. The ArcSoft DTS decoder seems to be perfect for DTS and DTS-HD decoding.
The libav/ffmpeg TrueHD decoder works perfectly fine including full 7.1 decoding. Furthermore the DTS decoder ignores the additional DTS-HD information. The libav/ffmpeg (E-)AC3 and DTS decoders are both limited to 5.1. I'm not sure whether there's a difference in audio quality. The libav/ffmpeg (E-)AC3 and DTS decoders work really well, but the output is not 100% identical to the Dolby/DTS reference decoders. So they currently do not make a lot of sense for eac3to. The Cyberlink decoders always only output 16bit and can't be used outside of PowerDVD. The Nero DTS decoder ignores the additional DTS-HD information and only decodes the DTS core. The Nero (E-)AC3 and Nero TrueHD decoders are working perfectly fine, but are limited to 5.1 channels. Most DTS-ES and DTS-HD Master Audio 6.1 tracks are fully decoded as 6.1, though. The only problem is that it decodes DTS-HD 7.1 tracks only as 5.1. The Sonic DTS decoder is very good for DTS, DTS-ES, DTS-96/24, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High Resolution tracks. The current version of the Sonic TrueHD decoder doesn't work properly at all. As a result I do not recommend to use the Sonic (E-)AC3 decoder. The Sonic (E-)AC3 decoder forcefully applies DRC.
DO NOT ASK FOR CRACKED VERSIONS/KEYGENS etc):
TMT is NO longer available for download (used to download a time limited full version of software) but since I'm a nice guy you can down load it here (this is the trail version for 30 days, after this you will have to buy it or do a frewsh install of your OS drive to use it again. C) or the best you can hope for with ffmpeg supplied with eac3to is the "core" legacy dts track. If the track you have has either dts Master Audio or dts High Resolution Audio then to MAKE A CONVERSION TO LOSSLESS FLAC you must have Arcsofts Total Media Theatre (TMT) installed (On your SYSTEM DRIVE i.e. This is what I picked up from another forum in regard to arcosft:
