DVDAE extracts the audio from the audio_ts folder. (the DVDAudio content)

If MC could play the DVDAudio content there would be no point in extracting it with another program.
mpl is the audio that exists in the audio_ts folder. You need to convert it to flac with DVDAE.

When you open the album with DVDAE it lists the contents of it in the left pane. Perhaps you should post a screen shot of this.

Thank you.
There are two selections in the left hand pane of DVDAE. I was selecting both. When I just selected the first one, I get the 6 channel audio. The second one is 2 channel and I guess that seemed to override the 6 channel extraction. Now, I've got my 6 channel rip

Thanks to everyone who replied; I greatly appreciate the input.

I need to understand the different formats, files, and structures of these different types of audio.

i have several BD audio and older DVD-A discs.   for DVD-A i just extract directly using DVDAE.   for bd audio, i use makemkv to decrypt and back up the disk.  then i open the backup in dvdae and select the appropriate title.  usually a PCM track as all my bd audio discs have three audio formats: PCM, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-MA.   dvdae nicely downloads metadata as. well.  well worth the money i spent for the license

if you dont have PCM or TrueHD and only dts-ma then you need to convert the dts audio.  there are ways to demux and convert.  i did it once but have long since forgotten the pipeline i used

i like to rip bluray concerts and extract the audio tracks to an album and import into jriver. this typically works great since most concerts have other thsn dts tracks, each song is a separate chapter, and dvdae handles them nicely

For DTS-MA, just get DVD Audio Extractor to dump the raw DTS streams.  MC can play them and convert them to FLAC.

Sorry for being late to this thread. I've used DVDAE for many years but I've always avoided using it on DTS-MA. Fortunately, most of my discs also have PCM that I can extract, but can you explain what you mean by using DVDAE to "dump the raw DTS streams?"

mark_h:
When you come to the extraction options, there's a choice to directly  save dts channels off to .dts files.  MC can play/convert these streams.

Direct Stream Demux
