This implies to me that the HDTracks recordings contain the 1997 master rather than the 2012 remaster, otherwise the copy write date should be 2012. HDTracks gives a copy write date of 1997 for the Ring download files. For the 2012 set, the digital master from 1997 was used and another remastering was performed to create the 2012 addition. The 2012 set was released to commemorate his 100th birthday. The Ring was released in 1997 as a new remaster to commemorate Solti's 85th birthday. Interesting thread but I have some confusion about the HDTracks set (no surprise there). It was well worth it, but I only now listen to the 24/48 files. I got the box before it was downloadable. If you just want the music in best possible sound, get the HD Tracks. If you want the swag, and a cd copy for the car, get the box. One of the projects for summer vacation is to spend some quality time with the Ring and get to know it much better, hence my attempts to rip the files and install them on my NAS. I bought the box set partly because of the quality of the performances and recording, and partly because of the included book by Deryck Cooke and the libretti. Those with more experience than I have with Wagner would have recognized instantly that Das Rheingold is the shortest of the operas. So it looks like I am OK, now that I see what is probably going on (no idea why, of course, but as long as the files are correctly ripped and can be identified I won't question it). I restarted both Passkey and DVD audio extractor, but no change in what I see. The other difference is that your screenshot shows no title for the album, while mine has DER RING DES NIBELUNGEN. So it looks like title3, as DVD audio extractor presents it on my system, is actually Das Rheingold, the first opera, and my title1 is actually Siegfried. I see from your screenshot that title1 has 30 tracks, which matches the contents of the redbook CDs and the listings on the Decca website that you gave. You have "title1" clocking in at 2:26, while I have it at 3:37. It appears that the order of titles is being read differently from what you posted. So how is one supposed to even play the files, never mind ripping? m2ts format, but it won't play them, saying the format is not supported. I opened CyberDVD and located some files under the "video" tab (not "music") in the. My Samsung drive comes with the CyberDVD suite that is supposed to play blu-ray disks and lots of other stuff. I thought maybe I could figure out what's going on by just playing the files off the blu-ray disk. What did I do wrong that I ended up with 51 files? I realize I have to enter the metadata by hand, but I can't do that unless I know what the files are. But there are only 30 tracks on the two CDs for Das Rheingold (assuming that "title 01" is Das Rheingold). The files seem valid, since foobar can play them. The problem is that I have 51 files numbered "title 01 - chapter 01.flac". I carefully followed the instructions in the tutorial here on ripping blu-ray, using Passkey and DVD audio extractor, and successfully ripped the first title, or so it seemed. I should say that I have never used blu-ray before and so am a complete noob. Based on earlier entries in this thread, I see that people have been able to rip the 24-bit files from the blu-ray disk. I need some help! I own the Solti box set.
