How to extract "hidden" Isolated Score from DVD ..... SOLUTION FOUND

Silverwook sent me his DVD copy of The Mummy as it contains a hidden Isolated Score that plays during the menus.  I want to use it as an extra for my Mummy HD-DVD Remux project.

I have the HD-DVD in a Bluray structure already but I cannot seem to figure out how to extract the score from the DVD. 

Does anyone have any experience in this that could offer some advice?

Thanks

I did this, or I should say tried to do this a long time ago, but good luck putting it in sync, I remember it being really different and I gave up on it, but it sure would have been nice to have an Isolated Score to this film.

I am guessing it probably would have been easier to use the CD's instead of the damn menu music from the DVD, plus the CD's may have had more tracks.

The DVD has the score in 5.1 though. Every track in the film is present, including source music.

Where were you in '77?

As I said, good luck sync'ing it, I lost patience with it, I wish I wouldn't have because this would be a great extra! and now I fracking cannot find my track form the DVD or my damn DVD lol, I was actually thinking on revisiting this and seeing if I could do something with it now, because when I messed with it, it was a few years ago.

Yeah, this is gonna be a tough one.  Maybe it's time to hit up another forum to see if it can be done.  I'm not sure I want to sync it, just have it as an extra .... maybe with a photo gallery of sorts.

Wish me luck .......  :)

Thanks for posting d_j .....  I'll try to keep my wits about me, LOL.

So how did you go about ripping it? I wonder if I even have the programs to even do this when I find my DVD lol, I lost a lot of old shit when I built this new powerful machine for our BD projects.

I'm working on ripping the isolated score.  Only thing that sucks is it will be in AC-3, no lossless.  Anyways, I'm researching the best way to do it and everyone on the internet says something different, LOL.

I will keep you all posted.

Glad you were able to extract it.

Weird, I could have sworn my receiver bitrate display said it was 384kps.

Where were you in '77?

Maybe MediaInfo is wrong?  Stranger things HAVE been known to happen.

How did you do it in the end? I would've suggested using PGCDemux.

I used DVDShrink to find the files I was looking for, used TsMuxer to combine them all in to one and retrieve the audio.
