Dvd-Audio support? (1 Viewer)

[frankpc]

Easiest way is to just rip them to FLAC. I have extracted the MLP and added this to an mka file but this requires you to change the music player from BASS to directshow. I am not sure there is a way of playing them directly (although they may just play as videos? )

I don't know a lot about DVD-Audio. I am just getting into this. I do know that the ripped AUDIO_TS files sound amazing. With foobar2000, you can double-click AUDIO_TS.IFO and by doing so, the tracks will play while still in their original .AOB format. -- No conversion to FLAC required.

However, that is as difficult and clumsy to do as it sounds. I am hoping to find media server software that handles that process from a nice GUI.

Thank you for your consideration. I will go to the link included above.[DOUBLEPOST=1368579208][/DOUBLEPOST]

can you provide an sample of your dvd audio ?
can help for dev

Here is the link I found that allows you to download a three track set of DVD-A as an ISO. They call this a sample for you to appreciate the quality of the albums they sell. I extracted the files from the iso and those are the ones I played by using foobar playing the ifo. I can tell you that they sound nice. Full resolution of six channel 24/96. Tempts me to purchase a DVD-A player and some DVD-A disks. However, it seems the player isn't necessary. I know there is a good reason why media player software doesn't seem to include playback capability for DVD-Audio. But haven't read what the reason is.

Thank you for your time and for giving this subject some thought.
