These libraries are in Program Files/Commom Files/Ahead/AudioPlugins directory. Put foo_nero in components folder + copy and paste aacenc32.dll & aac.dll into the foobar2000 directory. There is of course a special plugin for fb2k () to access of the Nero decoder/encoder. )įor High-Efficiency AAC, we need to install the last Nero Burning ROM (). To launch the process : a right click on the file following by Convert -> Run Conversion.

If all it's ok, then ckick on 'Save all' and 'Close'.

By example to make a downmix, you must put the 'Convert 5.1 to Stereo' on the left.

In the Processing part, check 'Use DSP' and click on 'go to DSP Settings' button. Then if you want to keep the 6_channels for the output file, go directly to number 8.else if you want to downmix (i.e 6 channels to 2 channels) then read the next items. There you can choose quality/bitrate Mode. In the Output Presets, search FAAC : MP4(LC),quality 100.from the list and click on 'Edit' button to modify or change the preset. In the Output Directory, check 'Same as source file directory'. Then go to Foobar2000 -> Preferences -> DiskWriter. Load the player and add your dts file with Playlist -> Add file Menu (or drag it & drop it directly into the playlist). Just one note before to begin : don't forget to check Optional Components during installation otherwhise you can't make these steps correctly.įor information, fb2k_special version provides natively the FAAC support. First, grab the latest fb2k release here (). Like I said, here are some examples for transcoding dts files with foobar2000. I'm testing dts to aac/mp3/vorbis (6 channels/2channels) and all seems to work very well.and all it's free ) That's why the transcode processing is reduced to one step instead of two like dtsdec. Yesssss :) One of the good point for this player is we can use directly the encoder and some plugins/dsp. This way is Foobar (), the famous audio player with his new plugin foo_dts () to decode dts files. In conclusion we have made 2 steps and this tool is more or less buggy :scared:įortunately today we have a new way ) And it seems to work pretty good. So, first we need to transcode dts to wav and then wav to anything following ours desires. The second one dtsdec is a CLI (Command Line Interface). But the most disadvantage is this tool need the WinDVD Intervideo filter :( and unfortunately WinDVD player isn't a freeware.:rolleyes: So, we can make a transcode of dts to aac/ac3/mp2/mp3/vorbis/wav very quickly. The first one seems to be great because we can use it with besweet.dll. Everybody knows (I hope at least) that the freeware to transcode dts files amount on a hand ) We can have azidts () and dtsdec () from the libdca librairy.
