What sort of error do you get? Please send Encoder1 log. Also a small sample of your file -if you can split it- would be nice.

"TAudioConverter" is showing up again in the Comment tag (on my FLAC to QAAC encodes).  Thought it was agreed to leave that out.

BTW, been using/testing this tool and I like it.  Thank you.

Could it be possible to add support for DTS?

Actually TAC supports convertion from DTS for a while now. But FFMpeg can only decode core DTS from DTS-HD files (MA or HR). AFAIK there are no free programs that can decode these files themselves. I honestly do not know much about these files, I don't have much samples.

If you have m2ts files, you can try to open them with TAC.

Edit: Yes these words are in Turkish.

I had MKV with DTS 5.1 inside. Opened, but won't extract or encode to anything :/
Used DTS add for Foobar, that worked flawlessly:  http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_input_dts

A DTS Coherent Acoustics encoder is below.

Make it fill it with "" (Nothing) or something?

Thanks.  Have you given this any more thought from a few posts back?  I agree with javmaclean that the duplication of target folder structures is redundant and/or broken.

BTW it would be nice to have just the target folder structure stored and not all the tree above it.
An example:
The source files are in directory "source" under:
  C:\myfles\xx\yy\source
The target directory is:
  C:\target
Your current behaviour when specifying "Create folder structure in output" is to put the files in:
  C:\target\myfles\xx\yy\source
Why not just put them in:
  C:\target\source

This would be a lot cleaner.

Could you add the ability to embed album art if it's located in the same folder as the original file?
I have all my flacs sorted into artists and albums. In every album folder I got the album art stored as "Folder.jpg". Would be cool if it was possible to embed these into the converted files.
Also if original file already has album art embedded, the possibility to copy artwork over to the converted one.

How are the donations coming? Obviously, you've still got your day job.

@jkauff I'm grateful for donations. I'd said that I'd be busy after february and that is the reason updates are not coming as often as before. But most probably I'll release a new version in a few days.

What about adding support for mp3packer?
Your GUI for that tool would be sweet.

Found some bugs:
- When skinning is disabled: When extracting audio, the encoding variables/controlles is not greyed out like with skinning enabled.
- Could not extract 5.1 DTS from mkv. Later, after demuxing with TSmuxer, TAudio manages to convert it. Tried with different mkv's containing different .dts with different bitstreams. This was supported in previous version.

Re: Version 0.8.0 Build 1191

- There's a typo in the "embed artwork to output file" drop down.  "Artwork" is spelled "arwork".
- When this embed artwork setting is selected, conversion of FLAC to QAAC fails (i.e. no output files are created).

-Thanks, corrected the typo.
-Also fixed that one.

@o-l-a-v, can you send me the mediainfo output of that mkv(dts) file?

Edit: Here is a link to new TAudioConverter.exe if you want a quick solution. Replace it with your own TAudioConverter.exe. Note that this is for installed version not portable.

Here is portable if you guys want to try it. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9617171/TAudioConverter_portable.7z

It happens to every dts from mkv. I'll send you a 30s sample on PM
+ "Encoding mode" is still not greyed out when extracting audio and skinning is disabled.

I'm looking into the sample you sent o-l-a-v.

Controls are disabled if you select "Extract Audio". http://i.imgur.com/Qw0hZxq.png Or do you mean something else?

Edit: @o-l-a-v, I fixed the problem. You can download TAudioConverter.exe from the links in the previous post.

The gui-thing is just a small little thing, nothing major.
But you can see on the picture that where it says "CBR" and "2" is not grayed out like the rest.
Hm, maybe, when i think about it. Can't everything that has do do with encoding just be removed when "extraction audio" is choosen? No meaning in showing those when extracting audio anyways
http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z96/_Ol...ait/Extract.png

One more thing that could be usefull: Trimming when converting a file. When creating ringtones for example, when converting it could be an option to set start and end time on the final file.

I'll test the fix later, great work!

Thanks for the update.

Let's switch from PM to here, I want to see what other people think about what I suggest.

1) Codecs sort alphabetically.

2) "REFALAC (ALAC)" should be "ALAC (refalac)".

3) You should say that to use QAAC libraries from iTunes/iTunes64/QuickTime must be copied in the same qaac.exe folder. Easily usable as portable with "makeportable" from https://sites.google.com/site/qaacpage/cabinet.

4) Same as 3) for fhgaacenc.

5) "Lame" is "LAME".

6) I am going to push this again: AAC (qaac) TVBR as default encoder. I strongly believe MP3 is old and should die, changing the default won't change much but people will start to understand they should use something newer like AAC since everyone is switching the default codec on every encoding software.

7) And I am going to push this one again as well: take off .7z and .rar and switch completely to .zip. Every OS supports it by default.
