DVD-Audio authoring

[nickbirkby]

Hi all,
Will DVD Studio pro, or anything else, author the DVD-A format? Basically WAV 24/96...

Ive been wanting to burn some albums in this format as you can play back on certain DVD players and Bluray players. Nice audio quality...

Try with those WAV.

If it doesn´t work try with AIFF or QT 5-6 file.

To make a QT file drag an drop over a new QT window.

Software to try: iDVD http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,2524.0.html


and DVD Studio Pro. http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,2523.0.html

Please report back.

Remember most DVD-players don't support DVD-A format, so if you want make more compatible use 24bit/48hkz in DVD-Video format.
I think it is possible make DVD with both formats, but I newer tested, because I don't have DVD-player that support DVD-A.

BUT your question is good, because by default DVD Studio Pro converts audio (but there is some settings, not tested myself), but I also want know is there way to make DVD-A with 24bit/96khz that works with Bluray players.

Hi, its also not all Blu-ray players that support DVD-A . Its quite an elusive medium as far as play back goes. It was launched in 1999 by the way.

Here is a list:

You also have to be wary that some players dont like burned discs...
The player I want is a Tascam DV-D01U which is a rackmount player that will play DVD-A burned discs

I must see if my DVD writer is working ok and try this weekend.
