i d/l'ed adobeman's program to make a image file for my dvd-a disc. my question is: im using DBpoweramp to burn my mp3s to wav's... what setting for the wav file should i put to play music on my TL? thanks!

Adobeman

You should use 16bit, 2 channel (stereo) 44.1khz which is typically referred to as "CD quality" Depending on what frequency your mp3's were sampled at don't be surprised if they sound different (worse)

I see an option for 5.1 channel and 48khz, will that not work because it was compressed into mp3 format? thanks

Adobeman

Not really because they are mp3 but...
1) The process I scripted only works for stereo wave files so 5.1 is not stereo and 48K is not 44.1Khz

2) Unless there is such a thing as 5.1 mp3 (which there may be) I'm guessing the music was originally stereo. So there is no way a 5.1 wav file will really add anything if the original mp3 is from a stereo source.

on this page http://home.comcast.net/~adobeman/DVDA/makewavs.htm

it says make them 7. Select 48000 KHz , 16 Bit, Stereo

will it sound better 44.1 or 48khz? thanks adobeman

what about mp3 files that already on the hard drive?
will audio grabber convert those too?

Then what, they are ready to burn to dvd a???

Thanks.

Adobeman

I just fixed that. It should be 44.1 for best compatibility.
Thanks for the catch
