DVD-Audio (aka DVD-A) is a high fidelity audio format that competed with SACD. Both are pretty much dead audio formats (have been for about 10 years now). DVD-A doesn't have video. It is audio only. It may be recorded at 24 bits per sample at a bit rate as high as 192 khz, though 96 is more common. DVD-A recordings may be in 5.1 surround. The only way to hear the full quality of this recording is to play with a DVD-A player. You can play these discs in a regular DVD player if they have a separate track that plays in the standard DTS 5.1 format that your movies have.
