eac3to was designed to convert E-AC3 and TrueHD audio tracks to AC3 or FLAC. TrueHD conversion unfortunately doesn’t work with demuxed TrueHD files at this point in time. The to-be-converted TrueHD track must the first (or better: only) audio track in an EVO file. Please use the EvoDemux tool to create one EVO file for a full movie with only the TrueHD audio track in it.

Usage: eac3to src.eac3|evo|wav dst.ac3|flac|raw|wav [-options]

This tool can convert a 2.0 or 5.1 E-AC3 or a 5.1 TrueHD track to AC3/FLAC.

Here are some key features of “eac3to”:

- can show information about audio files
- can decode and encode various audio formats
- can remove dialog normalization from AC3, E-AC3, DTS and TrueHD tracks
- can extract AC3 stream from Blu-Ray TrueHD/AC3 tracks
- can extract TrueHD stream from Blu-Ray TrueHD/AC3 tracks
- can extract DTS core from DTS-HD tracks
- can remove DTS zero padding and repair outdated DTS-ES headers
- can apply positive or negative audio delays
- can reduce bitdepth of decoded audio data by using TPDF dithering
- can resample decoded audio data (using “r8brain”)
- can apply/reverse PAL speedup on decoded audio data (using “r8brain”)
- can demux all video and audio tracks of an EVO/VOB source file
- can join/rebuild multiple EVO/VOB files
- can remux the video track of a EVO/VOB source to Matroska

eac3to sourcefile[ sourcefile2] [trackno:] [destfile] [-options]

Examples:
eac3to source.pcm destination.flac
eac3to source.thd destination.flac destination.ac3
eac3to source.evo 2: destination.eac3 3: destination.flac
eac3to feature_1.evo feature_2.evo movie.mkv

Options:
-448 use “192″, “448″ or “640″ kbit/s for AC3 encoding
-768 use “768″ or “1536″ kbit/s for DTS encoding
-core extract the DTS core of a DTS-HD track
/-100ms apply a positive or negative delay
-0,1,2,3,4,5 remap the channels to the specified order
-blu-ray remaps channels from Blu-Ray LPCM order to normal order
-downmix downmix 7 or 8 channels to 6 channels
-down16 downconvert decoded audio data to 14..23 bit
-slowdown reverse PAL speedup (25.000 -> 24.000/1.001 fps)
-speedup apply PAL speedup (24.000/1.001 -> 25.000 fps)
-resampleTo48000 resample audio to “44100″, “48000″ or “96000″ Hz
-quality=4 slowdown/speedup/resampling quality (0 = low; 4 = very high)
-mixlevel=181 back channel mixing level (0 = off; 256 = full volume)
-8 PCM file has “1″..”8″ channels
-16 PCM file is “16″ or “24″ bit
-little PCM file is “little” or “big” endian
-96000 PCM file is “44100″, “48000″, “96000″ or “192000″ Hz
-override forcefully overrides PCM auto detection with manual values
-sonic/nero/libav force the use of a specific decoder (not recommended)
-keepDialnorm disables dialog normalization removal (not recommended)
-demux EVO/VOB: demuxes 1st video track and all audio tracks
-no24p EVO/VOB: disables rewriting of MKV timestamps
-test checks if the external filters are installed & working

Supported source formats (only in demuxed form):
(1) RAW, (L)PCM
(2) WAV (PCM only)
(3) AC3, E-AC3
(4) DTS, DTS-ES, DTS-96/24, DTS-HD Hi-Res, DTS-HD Master Audio
(5) MLP, TrueHD, TrueHD/AC3
(6) FLAC
(7) EVO/VOB

Decoded audio data can be stored as / encoded to:
(1) RAW, (L)PCM
(2) WAV (PCM only)
(3) WAVs (multiple mono WAV files, PCM only)
(4) AC3
(5) DTS
(6) FLAC

For best AC3, E-AC3 and TrueHD decoding you need:
(1) Nero 7 (Nero 8 won’t work!)
(2) Nero HD-DVD / Blu-Ray plugin

For best DTS decoding you need:
(1) “Sonic Cinemaster Audio Decoder 4.3″ DirectShow filter

For DTS encoding you need:
(1) SurCode DVD DTS – version 1.0.21 or newer

For video muxing you need:
(1) Haali Media Splitter
(2) Haali Matroska Muxer
(3) MkvToolnix

  • I’m agitated all these article directories. It sure would be nice to have every article directory that instantly accepts articles.

  • rosehip oil says:

    If you buy a bottle as is, be sure to choose Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
    While the essential oils are often considered the “active ingredients”, its important to consider the “carrier oils” are exceptionally therapeutic as well.
    Rosehip is essentially seen to prevent and
    cure many ailments that are inclusive of urinary bladder infections, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic diarrhea,
    constipation, infertility, dizziness, gastritis as well as enhances the function of
    the kidneys.

  • argan says:

    Since the production of this oil contributed mostly to the medical therapy, the creation of the oil contributed much to the females of the native Berber group in Morocco to have a steady source of income and good working conditions and was able to
    build up their literacy and various education courses.
    The oil is extracted from the kernels of the argan tree fruit
    and it is priced higher than other oil products because only
    one to three kernels are found in every argan fruit
    and the tree where it comes from is endangered and found in few places.
    It can even discard acne blemishes and some
    minor scar tissue that is definitely invulnerable to any other products currently available.
