New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Re: SACD is the High Resolution Audio format, DualDisc is a VIDEO format, Mr. DVD-A Cheerleader re-read Sony's quote:

In
addition to a full album on the CD side, the DVD side provides the full album
in enhanced sound (such as Surround Sound and/or DVD-Audio or LPCM stereo)


End Quote.

The DVD-A layer, when correctly authored, contains primarily a High Resolution zone, and can also contain a Video_TS layer. If it does, the VTS contained must be pointed from within the AMG, or the disc goes out of spec.
DualDisc talks about CD/DVD-A layers. The DVD-V bit comes from confusion, and is referring to the hybrid zone in the DVD-A disc.

DVD-A makes no sense at all at less than 24 bit when used in the context of DualDisc, and pure DVD-V layers make no sense either. It would be cheaper to package such a disc as a 2 disc set. I know - I author DVD-A and Hybrid DVD-A/V discs for a living.

And that is the last comment I am making on this one.
