jerohm Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I have been playing around trying to rip a AC3 soundtrack from a concert DVD and burn it to a CDR. I know that the DVD has a 48K bitstream and I must convert it to 44.1K before burning it (hmmm, BeSweet). The problem I have, is that my Rotel 1066 recognizes it as a DTS bitstream (as displayed on the unit anyway) and no sound is played. I ended up splitting it into the 6 mono channels and reconverting it to DTS and that DOES WORK (FYI, DTS encoder is NOT free). Any insight or has anyone else got the Rotel to play an AC3 CDR file? I haven't actually burned a CDR; I have been using the S/PDIF out from the computer. Articles on the net 'imply' that you should be able to create an AC3 CDR. UPDATE: BeSweet 1.4 (last non-beta version) works correctly - although the output files are the same size, except for about the first 48 bytes (header??)or so, data is different.

Andronicus Dragon Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Go here, this is a great place for that type of info. I usually transcode to dts, which has some degradation of quality I know. http://www.dtsac3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
