Creating a DTS 96khz/24 bit audio alternative to DVD-A (MLP)

[kamuixtv]

I read through the DTS website that DTS 96/24 can achieve similar quality to DVD-A MLP track and its compatible with DVD-Video players. Now I want to start to mp3s with 48khz/192kpbs then convert it to 96khz/24bit wav, can I hear the changes?

Nope, there will be no change. You'll just have a huge file that sounds exactly like your mp3, or do you mean AC3? I've not seen a 192 kbps / 48khz MP3 before.

Assuming the original recording was mastered for CD at 16 Bit / 44,100, you won't get any better than that. More sound information is lost during the first round of compression (AC3 or MP3). Thereafter attempting to convert that to 24/96 PCM/WAV wouldn't do any good and would be a waste of time.

To top it off, there are very few authoring tools that I know of that can handle 24/96 PCM audio for DVD authoring.

MLP is as clean as it gets, I dunno what DTS is talking about.

My 2 cents
-Free

So same goes with DTS-CDs converting to 96/24?
