DTS WAV SPLIT

[Riky]

Hi guys,
            I downloaded a dts wav file with no cue whatsover.. It plays fine,but when i burn it plays as just 1 single file.. There are actually 8 tracks there,which i cant split.. Hope u Pros can help me w/this,wud really appreciate.. I've tried things like split wave,besplit n audacity.. No success.. Programs cant even trace any silence or tracks there. It plays fine only in foobar,but can it split..?
                                                                                       Thanks allot
                                                                                                      Riky

try and find the cue file for the CD version - you will find it may be close to your version

BTW what is it as we may have the cue file somewhere

Not sure, but you might want to try ExactAudioCopy, if I remember the program right.   I feel like I used that with a dts-cd file where  I was having trouble getting seamless playback from track to track.  You might need to get the exact split points nailed down before, and then do a couple of test edits of the dts noise  to get them right.   Pretty sure EAC is free (for pc).    Anyway, good luck.    - CP

I have always used Nero to break the file into tracks before burning.

Jriver will do it automatically if you convert it as well.  It will also present the tracks individually even if they are in one file.  You must export into another format for this to work outside jriver.

Yeah , what Lokkerman said is definitely the way to go.

 

You can edit the .cue file with notepad if necessary to adjust the start and end times of the tracks.

 

If there is no existing .cue file, you can create your own, this is fairly easy, there is info regarding this on Wikipedia:

Good luck Riky

Thanks ur suggestions,actually this is just a dts wav file,the uploader has either forgotten or missed to attach cue file w/it. its the 5.1 mix of immaculate madonna from hub.will try jriver..

[Riky]

@Robert tried to create cue file w/img burn etc.. But even file plays n shows as only 1 track,no splits..Thanks

[mircea raibulet]

@ Riky

You need to get the exact split points ...use DTStrimmer[free] to get
your individual tracks.
No conversion needed!

Have a nice day!

@mircea Hi there, tried the dts trimmer,but it only accepts dts file not wav.. I'll try to convert it to dts first n try again.. thanks

[mircea raibulet]

@Riky

 

Before converting,you may try to change the file suffix in ".dts"...see if works.....

You can try dts parser too[free].

Cheers,

Hi Riky

 

You are going to too much trouble doing this.

 

Using .cue files as in my previous emails is the sensible way to do this.

 

Regards

Hi Riky

 

if you mean you have created a cue file by scanning the file you downloaded with IMGBURN then  there would only be one track in the cue file created, because it does not know about individual tracks.

 

You need to either get hold of a cue file for the normal version of the CD (as Lokkerman said), or you can create your own .cue file using notepad. (create new text file, save as .cue file)

 

Below is the .cue file information for the UK version of the Immaculate Collection CD – is this the album you meant?

If so, this can be copied and pasted into a notepad text file, and saved as type .cue

 

If this is not the correct album, or the track list is different, you can use it as an example of what is needed to make the cue file work for your album.

 

You can play it in Foobar to ensure each track is correctly indexed before burning.

 

Regards

Of course you could again let jriver do this for you...it automatically splits albums into individual tracks.  convert to another format (or the same) and you are done.  No need to mess with all this stuff unless you need a cue file...which you dont if you just use that program and choose convert file.  easy as it gets.

[Riky]

@Robert hi thanks ur help, Acually this is a dts wav file 5.1 upmix which i grabbed from hub.Its different from the list u send me.. But i'll try to do the same technique,or try to email the uploader.. or worst play it as 1 file as the upmix is quite good.. Cheers!

[Riky]

@August bleed Hi tried jriver,NO GO.. It cant even play the file.. dts wavs can be pain sometimes.. also tried to convert,after converting it can play the file.,but as 1 single track only.. :(.. Anyway thanks ur suggestion..

[Riky]

Bingo... Mission accomplished. easily split into perfect tracks with free program cd wave editor..Anyway thanks to all here n keep up the good work..  :))))

[ROBERT COOGAN]

Riky use .cue file as per my previous emails.

 

I have done this before with DTS WAV files.

 

Might take some work on your part but as I said before you can play the cue file in Foobar and check the index is ok before burning (also with Foobar).

 

This is definitely the simplest and most user-friendly way to go.

 

Regards

 

Rob.

[ROBERT COOGAN]

No problem Riky

 

It would take less then 10 minutes to be able to work out in Foobar the start/end times of the tracks (use the seekbar), create a cue file, and burn the file to CD with the individual tracks intact.

 

Don’t be shy – use the cue file information I provided below and take the bull by the horns mate.

 

It will be a simple matter for you to use this as a template for your file.

 

As I said before, create in notepad, save as .cue file – call it whatever you like, ensure it is in the same folder as the music file.

 

You would obviously need to change the name of the music  file from "Madonna – The Immaculate Collection.wav"” to match yours, and change the track names, and the start times of each track.

 

You seem reluctant to do this and I cannot understand why as it is not difficult and will cause no harm.

 

Regards

 

Rob.
