Tad,
DVD Audio extractor simply extracts audio from standard DVD's and not DVD-Audio. I have the product and it works well for its intended application.

DVDFab will break the CPPM, then use DVD-A Explorer to open the DVD-Audio iso you've created and you can extract each track as an mlp file or as 6 wav files. The watermark still exists, so the files will only play on a dvd player which doesn't honor the watermark such as some powerdvd versions and some dvd players. What I've been doing is with the dvd-audio discs I own which only have a dolby digital track is rip the 6 wav's and then encode them to dts. The watermark is still there, but dvd players don't look for them in the Video_TS folder enabling you to have dts instead of only dolby digital. It's getting easier to back up dvd-audio, but there's still no way to get around the watermark (except using a player which doesn't look for it).
edit: there's several new versions of dvd-a explorer out now which will let you do mlp, wav's and flac
AFAIK, the only way to get around the watermark (I have tried this & it works) is to encode the WAV files to DTS-HD Master Audio.
Or you can use a player that doesn't look for the watermark such as the Oppo 980H or certain versions of Powerdvd for computer playback.
Curious, by encoding to DTS-HD MA would this allow for playback on an authored blu-ray disc, or do the players see the watermark and stop playback?
Hey Neal, you can check for a Sigmatek xm400 pro. It shares same Mediatek chip of the Oppo.
