Dolby-E decoding

[smallishzulu]

Hello,

Does FFmpeg support Dolby-E decoding ?
I have attached 2 files:

a) Dolby-E data with SMPTE-337
b) Dolby-E data

Kind Regards,

Dolby-E Data with SMPTE 337

A more useful sample is in ​http://samples.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-bugs/trac/ticket3890/
Using that sample, this maybe isn't just an enhancement request: Audio is incorrectly identified.

Thank you very much. Would you please be so kind and clarify whether Dolby E can now be detected by ffmpeg and ffprobe?

On the example TS file from one of the comments in this thread I get this:

And I'm not sure how to work with those .bin files from the other comments. Are we supposed to inform ffprobe/ffmpeg that input codec is Dolby E? Can you please supply an example?

Thanks in advance.

You still did not add on the fly support for 28 type. Why is that? Also, I have a file where 28 type is not somehow recognized. Again, why? Using standard ffmpeg -non_pcm_mode copy -i "file.ts" -map 0:2 -vn -c:a pcm_s24le -f s24le "out.dat" and ffplaying out.dat works though thanks to new patches even with actual seek.

because your behaviour here is unacceptable.

Replying to richardpl:

because your behaviour here is unacceptable.

What is unacceptable is that there is a workaround like that:

ffmpeg -non_pcm_mode copy -i file.ts -vn -map 0:2 -c:a pcm_s24le -f s24le - | ffmpeg -i - -ar 48000 -f WAV - | ffmpeg -i - -i file.ts -map 0:a -c:a copy -map 1:v -c:v copy -copyts -f matroska - | ffplay -

Why it cannot work without this?
P.S. If you think my behaviour is unacceptable (I read you on mailing lists BTW, it is funny coming from you, though you are usually right) what do you think about this guy in #3785?
P.S.2 Also, I still do not get whether -ar 48000 is needed. I mean there is no such sample rate internally, if you look in fr_code variable.
