Funny Stuff. My friend have both a Blu-Ray Burner and the XBOX 360 HD DVD drive connected to it's PC

He did a test yesterday. He ripped his disc of Hot Fuzz from the HD DVD to the HDD, He demuxed the 'Features 1 and 2' EVO, getting a VC1 file and DD+ Track.

He then loaded the VC1 into Scenarist BluRay, the soft took the file, then burned it on a BD-RE put it into the PS3.. and PAM it worked (Video Only), now Scenarist don't take DD+ from HD DVD, he's currently in the process of renting the DVD version, extracting the DD track and trying to mux the DD track from the DVD with the HD DVD VC1 (since both are sync to 23.95 it should work)

Interesting, isn't it?

DD+ is slightly different on BD and HD DVD which is why you just can't port the track over.

Note: Yes I actually do own the HDDVDs I do this with. So I don't see any problem with it. I'm merely bringing them over to my preferred format.

What software are you using for converting the audio?
