dvd audio to wav when dvd has 2nd angle

    Greetings,

    I am a way newbie (1st post). I used a commercial dvd audio extraction program on a couple of dvds. I had no problems extracting audio from one of the dvds, but the 2nd dvd has 'dual angles' - during certain portions of the presentation you can change to a 2nd angle. The start & end points of the 2nd angle option are what is giving me the problem. The audio that I extracted plays fine when the 2nd angle option begins, but at the END of the 2nd angle period the audio jumps back to the start of the 2nd angle segment & repeats (This sounds confusing as I read it back, but hopefully I'm making sense).

    This wouldn't be so bad, since I could probably edit the wav, but the entire audio track always gets shortened when this happens and I lose the end of the track. I'd really like to get this audio so that I don't always have to play the dvd to hear it.

    I downloaded dvd-decrypter and I'm decrypting right now, but I'm not sure what to do once I've got the ripped files on my hard drive. I've seen a guide about dvd audio extraction, but I'm wondering if I'll still have problems with the dual angle thing.

    Any help/hints would be appreciated, thx.

    As a follow-up, I contacted ImToo (the makers of the DVD audio ripping program) and they didn't really have an answer, all they said was I could "try it" (which is exactly what I've been doing). I also downloaded and tried a demo of a program called "DVD to mp3 DIY". They also offer a demo and claim to support multi-angle audio ripping. However, this was a very buggy program with a hard to use interface that crashed on the first attempt.

    My attempts to use a de-muxer (?) on the vob files I ripped went, er, poorly. I'd rather see if I can find an all-inclusive commercial program and just pay for it. Does anyone know of a program like ImToo DVD Audio Ripper, but that supports multi-angle?

    If you reauthor in DVD Shrink you can select just the angle you want. When you're done you'll have a movie with no extra angles to cause problems.

    That makes perfect sense and is the fix I've been looking for (for weeks)! Thx!!!

    No problem ;) It's usually the easy solutions that evade people the longest.
