HiDef Stereo

18 months ago I posted a discussion on how to burn a DVD-A:

That was all very well and good ....BUT, it means I can't give the discs to anyone without a DVDA player.

Using the M-Audio MicroTrack 9624 the high resolution soundtrack I can record is 96 KHz 24Bit, which is the max resolution usable on a standard DVD.

The MicroTrack 9624 is flexible enough for me to record live and also connect to my pre-amp, and record from tuner/turntable etc.

I am not interested in authoring multi-channel recordings, and would prefer to use my Benchmark DAC1 for decoding duties - so DVDA is not a must-have.

My immediate need is to create a disc that I can give to marriage candidates to allow them to pick what music they would like, and control their expectations of what our choir sounds like! By producing a DVD it saves me having to produce a lo-def track to burn to CD.

Sooooo,

I looked for some commercial offerings - but they were all (both) a few years old and didn't appear to be being supported.

Looking on:

I found a reference Lplex:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/audioplex/

This is a small windows command line application.

You place the files you want to burn to DVD in a directory and then drag and drop them onto the .exe (or batch file) and it produces an ISO file for you.

Works a treat.
