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

Re: Very true

The Video_TS would need to be authored externally, and there are some pretty heavy restrictions on the content of such a Video_TS.
Okay, Chrome 2 has an AutoMirror function, but this is for Dolby Digital only, and the spec legality is questionable.
Also - not all DVD-Video players will accept a 24/96 stereo file at all.
Not by a long, long way.
16/48 is the mandatory spec for LPCM, with support for up to 24/96 being optional, not mandated.
Certain players will truncate a 24 bit word to 16 bits, and decimate a 96KHz sample rate to 48KHz. Ugly.
Some Copy Protection methods also restrict the digital output to 16/48.

Finally, you cannot use uncompressed Multichannel Audio at all in DVD-Video. It is catered for in the specs, but was only ever optional, and never implemented in any player at all.
It may be interesting to create such a stream (maximum bitrate of 6.144Mb/sec allowed) and see if this will output in a DVD-Audio player with a properly set call from the AMGM to the VMG of the Video_TS.
One day I'll try this & see what happens.....
