HI,

Is there any way to output Dolby-E encoded audio track to Multi-Channel PCM using VLC?

Bye
Jacques

No. We don't have a Dolby-E decoder.

Hello,

Merci pour la réponse.

Do someone know exactly why it's near impossible to find a way to decode Dolby-E except for very pricy commercial solution?

Is it because Dolby Laboratory layers have hardly protected the format?

Is any information available online to learn how to extract the audio portion of the data stream?

I know that meta data is embedded with it, but I do not care about that, my goal is only to be able to stream all 6 audio tracks in any way to my sound system.

Bye
Jacques
