I'm wondering if this is something that will be possible with mplayer? I would really love to get advantage of my 24bit soundcard that I have with a good quality external DAC and play the DVD-audio discs. What are the steps required to implement this, does the output audio plugins for oss and alsa support the 24/96 to begin with? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=1093&e=2&cid=1093&u=/pcworld/20021111/tc_pcworld/106770 -Christian

WinDVD releases support for dvd-audio
No, they didn't. If you read the article carefully, you'll notice that it only supports the 24bit/96kHz audio track of DVD _movies_: : Hardly any of the DVD movies currently available offer 24-bit/96-kHz : audio streams, and WinDVD Platinum lacks playback support for the : relatively common DVD-Audio discs that do. I don't think they will allow any software players this time, because they make it much easier to hack the new encryption scheme they use for DVD-Audio. BTW, when they were about to launch the DVD-Audio format back in 1999, they planned to use CSS. But just before the launch, CSS was hacked and so they replaced it with something else. Bad timing of the DeCSS people... :-) Eric
