Memento BluRay

[muctur]

When I rip the Memento BluRay with only the LPCM track selected for audio, the audio will not play in any media player (mplayer, VLC).
I want to keep the uncompressed audio track only.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I am currently using MakeMKV v1.6.2 for Mac.

A well known player limitations for multi-channel LPCM audio. You can use mkvextract or eac3to to extract audio track from MKV and then encode it to FLAC. Most players handle FLAC better than multi-channel LPCM.

What is the best option for conversion to keep it uncompressed, but push it bitstream to a receiver?

Only thing that can send multi channel lpcm is hdmi cable (coax and optical only support 2 channel lpcm)... so if your playback device and receiver support hdmi and multi lpcm your good to go
Otherwise your SOL as far as uncompressed lpcm.

Ok.

So if I need to convert it, but want it to play in VLC, is there anyway to retain an uncompressed version of the audio?

[mike admin]

Yes, convert to FLAC - you'll get compressed but lossless audio.

Ok. What programs for Snow Leopard would be able to do that?

tsMuxer only works on Leopard. I just want to covert the audio then re-encode it into one file, if possible.

macflac looks like a easy gui or just use flac (download flac encoder binary first) from command line:

Code: Select all
