DSD and DXD Conversion #243

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
XLD currently does not handle DSD or DXD which are increasingly available as 
purchased downloads.  It would be great to transcode to and from these formats 
to take advantage of the increased availability of DSD and DXD DACs.

Can at least the DSD to PCM side be done with 
https://code.google.com/p/dsd2pcm/ through a plugin

Here is an experimental DSD decoder plugin. Current specification is:
- supports 2.8MHz, DSF (.dsf) and DSDIFF (.dff) formats
- output PCM format is 24 bit / 352.8 kHz

DXD is a linear PCM format; it isn't DSD.

Many thanks I will have a look at the plug in.

Update
 - DSD128 (5.6MHz) support. Native PCM samplerate is 705.6 kHz.
 - Resampling support. You can resample PCM to arbitrary frequency in the decoder.
   If encoder also has a resampler, data may be resampled twice; this is usually undesirable.
   In this case you should turn off either of the resamplers (decoder side* or encoder side**). 
    [DSF/DSDIFF]--(DSD Data)--[DSD Decoder]--(decimated 352.8/705.6 kHz PCM)--[Resampler*]--(resampled PCM)--[Encoder's resampler**]--[Encoder]
   Currently the resampler configuration is not implemented in GUI. You have to modify .plist file manually.
   Open XLDDSDDecoder.bundle/Contents/Info.plist file, then you will see a XLDDSDDecoderOutputSamplerate key.
   The default value is zero; this means no resampling in decoder's side. Entering non-zero value in this field enables a resampler.
   Resampling is done with SoX resampler, VHQ mode.

This plugin requires the latest version (20140504) of XLD.

Update: added option to apply +6dB gain while decoding 
(XLDDSDDecoderApply6dBGain key, boolean value)

Update
 - 32bit floating output support
 - 16:1 decimation support (2.8MHz DSD64 to 176.4kHz, 5.6MHz DSD128 to 352.8kHz)
 - GUI configuration support (XLD menu -> DSD Importer Settings...)

GUI configuration works with the development version of XLD: 
http://tmkk.undo.jp/xld/XLD_dev_140512.zip
Configuration with .plist is no longer supported.

About the samplerate conversion, decimation means it applies decimation filter 
(8:1 or 16:1) only. For other frequencies, 8:1 decimation filter is applied at 
first, then converted to arbitrary frequency using the usual samplerate 
converter.

Put .bundle into ~/Library/Application Support/XLD/PlugIns

No CLI knowledge is required.

Plugin update: supported SACD .iso files

limitations
 - do not change importer settings while .iso file is opened (close and open again if you want to change)
 - only 2-channel area is read; multichannel area is ignored

Thanks for adding SACD.iso conversion ... one question, is there any way to get 
metadata? Tracks show up as Track01, etc?

CD-Text support is not implemented at the moment.

Could you upload first 2MB of the iso file?

command:
head -c 2097152 disc.iso | gzip > disc_head.iso.gz

It works here. I guess the plugin isn't installed properly.

Thanks a lot for XLD, BTW, and all your hard work. Please advice how to 
"install" the plugin. What I did was to rsync dowloaded XLDDSDDecoder.bundle/ 
into /Applications/XLD.app/Contents/PlugIns/

Sorry, did not read above, it needs to go to ~/Library/Application\ 
Support/XLD/PlugIns/. ISO file is opening now. BTW, can you please add file 
association so XLD could handle .iso opening directly from Finder context menu? 
Thanks again.

DSD Importer Gain Adjustment +6dB is definitely not working (not applied) in 
XLD Version 20141129. Is it fixed now in XLDDSDDecoder-20150124 plugin?

It works here. Note that the change is not applied for already opened files.

Not an issue, just a workflow question.
For converting PS3 SACD ISO to PCM Stereo FLAC, I’m using the following DSD 
Importer settings:

    • 96000 Hz
    • SoX HQ
    • 24-bit Floating Point
    • +6db

I am satisfied with results, but I am strictly going by trial and error. Please 
advise if you feel there is a more optimal combination of settings. Many thanks 
for all of your good work, tmkk!

Theoretically, 44100 Hz or 88200 Hz (integer conversion ratio) should be better.

Any chance that we'll get support to convert from DSD ISO to DSF files? I'd 
prefer keeping it DSD rather than going to PCM. Thanks for XLD!

That is not suitable for XLD. And it is already possible with sacd-ripper 
(https://code.google.com/p/sacd-ripper/).
