... it only read 1hr or so out of a 2hr file. Then I tried dumping it as 'raw'. Then audacity would crash in the reading, and this time it was using ffmpeg in the reading anyway. 4 GB is the maximum size of WAV. Import RAW uses libsndfile, not FFmpeg. Why do you need a 32-bit WAV? Why not try encoding ...

DTS-HD Master Audio contains 2 data streams: the original DTS core stream and the additional "residual" stream which contains the "difference" between the original signal and the lossy compression DTS core stream. If you save the difference information you can use it to re-creat...

Ok I had a chance to listen to the 4GB-wav created directly with ffmpeg. I can already tell the difference. It is great. I'm also creating a new one with this setting: It will likely be 8GB... -acodec pcm_s32le Because the default setting is -s16le.... So ...

I was wondering if this is actually explaining how the 7.1 is laid out on the disc. Somehow it uses 2-different audio tracks to conjure up the decoding of 1 (maybe). This makes it sound like, it's not just as simple as the rear-channels being matrix'd. The lossy/lossless concept is not related to t...

I haven't had a chance to play the 4gb-wav data I recorded yet. But I was studying this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTS-HD_Master_Audio The sub-heading 'Combined lossless/lossy compression' gets a bit over-my-head, and I don't understand it much. I was wondering if this is actually explai...

... thread: https://www.avforums.com/threads/7-1-audio-on-5-1-speaker-system-dts-core.1818968/ I believe he explains a bit. You said you had "FFMpeg. N-75841-g5911eeb". You can use that to try to convert the file. Hold SHIFT and right-click over the folder that contains ffmpeg.exe, and ...
