You can remove DN to 5.1 eac3:

E-AC3, 5.1 channels, 0:00:34, 1536kbps, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB

Code:
eac3to 51chan_dn.eac3 51chan.eac3
E-AC3, 5.1 channels, 0:00:34, 1536kbps, 48kHz

But to 7.1.eac3 only can renove the DN from the core:

E-AC3, 7.1 channels, 0:01:23, 768kbps, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB
(core: AC3, 5.1 channels, 0:01:23, 448kbps, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB)


Code:
eac3to 71chan_dn.eac3 71chan.eac3 -> abort
eac3to 71chan_dn.eac3 71chan.eac3 -core
AC3, 5.1 channels, 0:01:23, 448kbps, 48kHz

Hi, I need save audio files on 32 bitdepth, I think that only ALAC audio encoder supported that bit depth (compression audio). How I could using ALAC with Useac3to? Thanks in advance, Teba.

EDIT: Maybe?--> stdout.wav | refalac - -o audio.m4a

If refalac.exe is in the eac3to/UsEac3to/defined path the sintax is correct.

But I don't know the source, and by default eac3to output stdout.wav in 24 bits int, you can try

stdout.wav -down32 | refalac - -o audio.m4a

To obtain a 32 bits int.
From lossy decoders you can obtain until 64 bits float with the parameter -full, for instance:

eac3to input.ac3 output64float.wav -full

I don't know how obtain 32 bits float.

The source is 32 bit float but, refalac convert directly to 24 bit integer. I think that ALAC does not support 32 bit depth. Any other lossless encoder with support for 32 bit? Thanks.

The float audio samples are only usefull to operate with them (mix, amplify, etc.), after that must be normalized and converted to int samples before to be played (to avoid overflow).

The precission of 32 float (24 bits of mantissa) is, more or less, the same than 24 int. A float format must be converted always to int (normalize first) to lossless encode.

I never see a source of 32 bit float lossless, maybe is a decode of a lossy format.

I trying too to encode a 32 bit int with ALAC and result is 24 bit int. Thanks anyway.

hello , sorry my english...

Windows 10 Pro, user Paweł (Polish letters)
UsEac3To choose the test and show me:
"C:\Users\Paweü\Desktop\eac3to.exe" -test -progressnumbers -log="C:\Users\Paweü\Desktop\UsEac3to\UsEac3To.log"
Processing Info... Please wait or Ctrl+C over CMD window.

The problem is that instead of Paweł, I have Paweü
Can you fix it somehow? so that the program would support Polish letters?

Now, when I open UsEac3 it does not work, the program does nothing ...

regards Eleonore

Sorry Eleonore I can't do anything about that.
The unique workaound is create folders to install and work UsEac3to without special letters.
C:\Portable\eac3to\UsEac3to...

My os drive is C:. When I demux to mkv (using Haali Media Splitter) and select output folder not on c drive (D:\... for ex) it creates a few mb mkv file and the process gets stuck.
If i choose C:\ it creates files in appdata\local\VirtualStore. If i choose C:\...\ it works correctly.
I'm using eac3to 3.34 with UsEac3to GUI 1.2.9
Any thoughts?

Seems a problem in your D drive, check it with CrystalDiskInfo or equivalent.
I use C or D drive without problems with eac3to and UsEac3to

You're right it's an issue with that hdd, it's an external hdd (not health issue). I have problem only with haali. If I demux to raw it works fine.

E-AC3 really working? I'm trying to convert or decode a EAC3 file and this gives me error. does it decode with libav/ffmpeg (E-)AC3 or i need nero 7 installed?

Thanks.

EDIT: seems that with windows xp i can't use the ffmpeg. And i want to use qaac. I will try belight/besweet

eac3to can use the libav/ffmpeg decoder but it may not work for all files. If eac3to fails try ffmpeg directly.

Fortunately some nice folks still provide current FFmpeg builds which work under WinXP. This one by Reino (CoRoNe) is my favorite:
http://rwijnsma.home.xs4all.nl/files...c-xpmod-sse.7z

I know that it has no problems decoding and encoding eac3 audio.

To use qaac under XP you need an older version of iTunes or QuickTime. Let me know if I should upload something for you.

The libav dll in use with eac3to is very old and only work with eac3 5.1, with 7.1 crash.
For instance with:

Quote:
M2TS, 1 video track, 2 audio tracks, 0:01:23, 24p /1.001
1: h264/AVC, 1080p24 /1.001 (16:9)
2: E-AC3, English, 5.1 channels, 640kbps, 48kHz
3: E-AC3, Spanish, 7.1 channels, 768kbps, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB
(core: AC3, 5.1 channels, 448kbps, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB)
work with track 2, but crash with track 3, the bug is already reported.

To decode/recode the track 3 you can use the button 'A/V Recode', if you have the appropiate ffmpeg and qaac for you OS.

belight/besweet never can decode eac3.

Well, i'm not well versed on ffmepg commands with variables as normalize + downstereo etc (i will check for future reference).

Thank you

Thanks, but i have already one packed by me. I don't know why i forgot to search for a ffmpeg for win xp.

Thank you for the note.

Well, i will check how to use ffmpeg to reencode a .eac3 7.1/5.1 to 2.0 (+lfe or not) with normalization/drc.

Stereo with 2 channels + subwoofer is equal to 2.1? do i need to put -downstereo or -downdpl (effect surround on stereo = dolby pro logic II or I?) on UsEac3To?

P.S.: behappy works on winxp with one lLSMASH-Works-r784 (for win xp) for .eac3 files (libav or ffmpegsource).

Yes, but downmix to 2.1 is not recomended at all.
Downmix only to 2.0

-downdpl is only recommended if your audio player is a 5.1 system with DPL decoder. To play in a audio stereo player (TV or standar amplifier) use always -downstereo

Could you add more parameters to the parameters dropdown or make it editable, please. I miss "down6" for example.

You can edit UsEac3to.au3 and compile or interpret with free tools https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/

BTW down6 is already in 'Frequent parameters':
