Announcing Lplex - Wave/Flac to DVD-V and Back Again (Free/Open-Source Options

[aval57]

Folks, announcing the release of Lplex 0.2 Beta, a simple drag-and-drop open-source win32 console utility intended to provide a free, quick, and hopefully painless way to

• create a playable full-resolution "audio-only" dvd-video disc from
  wave or flac audio filesets, with md5 verification and archival
  content.

• extract unencrypted lpcm audio streams from dvd-video to wave or
  flac in an md5-verified process.

2006-08-08 : Version 0.2 beta released
Please take a moment to look at the changelog and updated readme.

aval57,

Thanks for the comments. In answer to some of them:

1) No, the audio was not continuous. I was just doing a test on 10 seperate wave tracks using all the formats (but trying seamless as two of the tracks faded into each other). The thing I noticed was that using "seamless" mode worked better when using "next track" on the DVD player (more like an audio CD). As for the "pop" bebtween tracks ... this occurred in both the "seamless" and "indescrete" mode. It's just a quick pop that happens when shifting from one track to the next.

2) I hope to have time to play with the program more in the mext few days and will send you the .log files.

3) No prob about the upsampling ... just being lazy myself I'll also try with some DVD-A/V discs with hi-res I have next time and see how the hi-res audio comes out (that's gonna be the fun stuff!)

4) Yeah, it is a commercial DVD (with an LPCM track), but ripped to hard drive with DVDDecrypter for easier and quicker testing purposes.

Anyway, I thank you again for the program.
