The "DSP" friend I mentioned before has written a software Telcom C4 decoder for a client (custom made, not for sale). Telcom was a German (Telefunken) tape noise reduction system, equivalent (claimed superior) to Dolby. Just to say that it can be done if there's (financial) interest. IIRC Telcom was less critical than Dolby regarding playback calibration, so decoding Dolby wav files might be a bit more complex.
