DVD Audio Extractor - opinions, advice, etc.
I'm thinking about purchasing DVD Audio Extractor to rip my DVD-A discs and eventually my old DVD's and Blu-rays.
Any one have experience with this and could share there opinions, version, setup tips etc.? Unfortunately it doesn't rip SACD's but at least I'll be able to get my multi-channel DVD-A's ripped to FLAC so that my Oppo 205 can grab them from my NAS and via the Oppo's analog outs I'll be able to get the signal to my SSP. |

It's been a while but I used DVD-AE in the past to rip high res tracks from DVD and DVD-A discs and found it quite effective. I recall that it's pretty intuitive to use and never had any problem with the extracted files. Its interface is simple and nothing fancy but it gets the job done.

+1. It works and is pretty easy to figure out.

From memory, I always needed to run the rip TWICE. Once for the stereo and once for the multichannel.
It worked well but the metadata database (at that time 3 years ago) wasn't particularly good so many discs needed manual entry. Other than that, it worked without a hitch, generating 5.1 and 2.0 FLAC files that worked perfectly.

I’ve used it for years to rip my
DVD-As and concert dvds. It’s been a year since I’ve used it, but unless there’s an update I could not rip any of my few Blu-ray Audio discs. For those I just send them through my Oppo to the DAC. |

Thanks for the responses, much appreciated.
Looking at the website, in the FAQ section there was mention of Blu-ray: Does DVD Audio Extractor support Blu-ray discs? Yes, DVD Audio Extractor can now be used to extract audio from Blu-ray discs. However, please note Blu-ray discs with BD+ encryption are not supported directly. You'll have to decrypt with tools like AnyDVD or MakeMKV first, then you can extract audio with our product. |

Good to know. I may take another stab at ripping my BD+ discs.

Looks like for my actual DVD and Blu-ray movies I'll have to use another product. Since DVDAE is specifically for the audio portion I would have to get something like the aforementioned AnyDVD software for being able to rip a movie so that I can watch it from the NAS.
