24bit 96KHz Audio to DVD?

[akrako1]

Someone gave me a 24-bit 98KHz rip of a Vinyl LP (stereo WAVs). I'l like to put it onto a DVD for listening. I know this is within DVD spec, but don't know how I would do it. Is it possible to author it as DVD-Audio? or as DVD-Video without any real video? Any guides/tips would be helpful. Primarily I use the TMPGEnc suite of software. Thanks.

The TMPGEnc suite of software won't help you therefore.

Look here:

You need DVDaudio endable players to play those back.

my JVC supports them. I'll check out the link above. Thanks!

DVD-Audio is also a good way for putting on DVD long music programs (like operas and concert festivals) from CDs, since it supports sample rates 44.1/88.2/176.4kHz along with 48/96/192kHz.
Some programs like discWelder Chrome generate simply editable still menus and allow to attach picture to every track.

DVD Video Specifications does support upto max of 24 bit / 96 kHz.

But if you had DVD Audio support, I would personally go with DVD Audio.

I thought PCM audio on a DVD Video had to be 2 channel 16-bit 48k format?

That's just what most commercial DVD authoring programs can accept.

When coupled with video, I wonder how this will work with the 'max bitrate' limitation on the DVD spec. With 96Khz 24bit audio, that must force the video bitrate to be heavily decreased. Anyone know off hand what the bitrate of 96/24 PCM audio is?

A lot of live rock concerts DVD have two sound tracks : 2 channel 24bit/96KHz, and redubbed 5.1 Dolby surround.

MaxAudio datarate for DVD-V = 6.144 Mbps
Bitrate of 96/24 PCM audio (2 channel) ~ 4.6 Mbps

EDIT: BTW MuxMan can be used for this audio type:
LPCM - 48K or 96K sampling rate, 16/20/24-bit 1 to 8 channels as allowed.

96KHz X 24 bits X 2 channels = 4,608Kb/s

To make a DVD-Video with just audio, Audio DVD Creator will work great. i've used it several times with 24bit-96K wav files. I don't have a DVD-A player so this was my alternative. I hope this helps.
