[HOW-TO] Create DVD-Audio

[Sir_Yaro]

1)
First we have to download and compile main program for dvd authoring:

[yaro][~]$ cd /tmp

wget http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/alpha/dvda-author-20050703.zip
follow the bolded lines

[yaro][/tmp]$ wget http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/alpha/dvda-author-20050703.zip
--18:43:54-- http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/alpha/dvda-author-20050703.zip
=> `dvda-author-20050703.zip'

2)
now lets create an iso image. Unfortunatelly default mkisofs sort files unproperly. So here we have two options. You can recompile mkisofs and patch it using this file:
patch (http://dvd-audio.sourceforge.net/mkisofs-dvdaudio.diff)
or use attached patched version of mkisofs. (check bellow).
There is a third way where mkisofs can sort files with a little help of external file but this way is long and unhandy, so i wont describe it here.

So, thats how we got ready to burn dvd image. Of course you should use much more tracks in a real project to occupy the whole dvd.

[Sir_Yaro]

first:
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev libflac-dev
and then try again

[dude87]

Much happier, thanks. I'll test this out tonight, but at least now I'm compiling properly.

[MetalMusicAddict]

I havnt tried this yet but as a audio guy I have to say thanx. :)

[dude87]

Cool, this worked fine, including starting with FLAC files instead of WAVs.

thanks!:D

[Sir_Yaro]

You're very welcome

Thanks! I was already making DVD-A discs using mkisofs, but I didn't know about the patched version, so I had to go through the authoring process twice, once to find the AUDIO_PP.IFO start sector, and again using it as a parameter. This shaves some time off the process for sure.

It looks like the patched mkisofs is using mplayer for something, if I'm reading the process monitor correctly!

Thats looks really cool I was wondering if it works with a
ac3 audio file instead of wav ?
