Seeing as there is a dearth of 8 channel players - I was thinking I could just use a 7.1 DVD on a loop for an eight channel sound installation - as long as I can send a seperate audio signal to each of the 8 (the LF sends a full range signal too) there shouldnt be a problem. I encoded 5.1 DVD ages ago and I vaguely remember I needed several programs, one for encoding AC3, one for authoring etc etc - does anyone know programs would I need to encode a 7.1 DVD ?
According to wikipedia DVD-Audio only does 5.1 - it could be wrong of course.
The DVD-Video page claims 8ch PCM support is in the spec, but says it's not well supported by players.
AFAIK in practice 7.1 is a bluray thing. _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
