DVD-Audio Decoder and Watermark Detector Files

NOTES:

	This plugin is capable to decode protected DVD-Audio content.
	This plugin is capable to detect DVD-Audio watermarks.
	This plugin contains MLP Decoder from FFmpeg project and some parts from libdvdread library.


USE:

	Install foo_input_dvda.fb2k-component. Then open AUDIO_TS\AIDIO_TS.IFO, *.ISO, *.MLP, *.TRUEHD or *.AOB file for playback.
	
	Use DVD-Audio Watermark Detector DSP plugin for watermark detection. Check foobar console log for watermark presence.
	[hh:mm:ss.nnn] is "watermark start time" and not the time when it was detected.
	[XXXXXXXXXXXX] is "4C 12 bit" watermark vector.  
	
	If AUDIO_TS follder is copied from protected disc (Right-Click -> File Operations -> Copy to...) it will be automatically decrypted.
	Select "Destination Folder", check "Copy Entire source Folder Content", enter "File Name Pattern" as %filename%, click "Run".
	See console output for operation progress.

	When track properties are edited the new data are saved in dvda_metabase subfolder or alogside with ISO in *.xml file.
	Each *.xml file contains info for exactly one related DVD-Audio disc. File names are MD5 hashes of correspondent
	AUDIO_TS.IFO files. This *.xml file set forms "DVD-Audio Database" and it is supposed to be shared among users.

	If you are going to share edited disc info please do:
	1. Enter info about all tracks (as full as possible). Use '-' letter for dummy tracks.
	2. Find dvda_metabase subfolder. It depends on foobar setup and should be in <user-profile>\Application Data\foobar2000 folder for
	   standart installation. For portable installation it is in <drive>:\Program Files\foobar2000 folder.
	   Or use Windows file search option.
	3. Find edited *.xml file. Use file modification time property to select the proper one.
	4. Send it to <maxim.anisiutkin@gmail.com>.

	If you are going to use shared disc info please do:
	1. Download dvda_metabase_XXXX.XX.XX.zip file from http://dvdadecoder.sourceforge.net site.
	2. Unzip and put *.xml files in dvda_metabase subfolder. To figure out about subfolder placement see previous section.
	3. Run foodar and open DVD-Audio disc. If disc in database track info will be displayed.
	   Try (Properties -> Metadata -> Tools -> Reload Info) if not.
