That has to change it from five or six channel at high rates to just stereo at 44.1/16, right? There probably is a hack somewhere, but there can't be much motivation to do this, the difference between DVD-A and redbook is at best subtle. The other obvious approach is to play the disk on a suitable player, and wire up the line level outputs to a multi-channel I/O card like a M-Audio Delta 66. Then record the music as PCM. Ignoring the DSD vs high/wide PCM theology, it will get all of the music without the 44.1/16 artifacts. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
