Everyone seems to have gotten sidetracked arguing technical minutia and have not answered the new forum member's question(s).
Louis: We're normally better than that in welcoming someone to the forums, but sometimes people are really passionate about their audio and get sidetracked. :) I'm sure someone will help you out shortly.

I posted detailed instructions for ripping DVD-A discs with Foobar2000, since Media Center does not support them at all.
Louis Marchione:
Thank you, everyone.
RD James I will follow your instructions (which are excellent detailed) and report back on the results.
To Gvanbrunt. I felt that way for a while too, however I don't mind the extra "technical" information given from the other posts.
Again, thanks to everyone.
Enjoy your music.

After DL and installing Foobar2000 and copying foo_input_dvda.dll to the foobar2000\components directory I tried to rip the DVD-A, by selecting FLAC format. But it asked me to point it to flac.exe file. After DL it and copy it to foobar2000 folder the conversion went through, only to wind up with 0 bytes file size. Tried to select AAC but I cant find a trusted site where I can DL qaac.exe. Finally I selected .wav and I was able to covert, one by one, all of the files. Happy now. Finally I imported all files into JRiver 22. And I even convert them to ALAC for the iTunes library.
This should do for now.
Thanks RD JAmes and all the others for helping me out.

This is going to be a bit of a tangent, but I've succesfully ripped many DVD-A and Bluray Audio disks using DVD-Audio Extractor in the past. However since mid 2017, DVDAE has been crashing when trying to produce FLAC files (bear with me, I'll get to MC eventually). I reported it to CAS and after a lot of to-ing and fro-ing they've concluded that's an incompatibility with something else that uses FLAC. On my main PC, their are lots of possible candidates (including MC22), but on CAS's advice I've just tried it on a much cleaner machine. Win 10 64bit (AMD), with MC22 pretty much the only other thing on it.
So, has anyone else ever had a problem with DVD-AE, MC and FLAC?
(DVD-AE will happily produce MP3, Ogg-Vorbis and other formats from Bluray audio disk copies created with MakeMKV, it's just FLAC that seems to be a problem).

On the cleaner machine, what happened?
How about antivirus?
What about MC23?
Let them know we'll provide a license if they want to look further.
