    Hi
    You guys maybe have read my other post... if not... i bought an "dvd-a" wich contains h.q. audio ( 24 bits 96 khz ) but it was actually autored as dvd-v so my dvd-a player doesn't try to read it.

    I need to find tools for strippin out the waves and authoring and new real dvd-audio.

    Thanks to those that can help me.

    Your DVD-V player should be perfectly fine with this.
    DVD-Video specs allow for up to 24/96 in Stereo with no trouble although you might need to go into the system setup for the DVD Player and ensure it is outputting at not only 24 bit but also 96KHz.
    From the analogue outs, it should do this with no trouble.
    Stripping out the wave?
    Why, if you don't mind me asking? a 24/96 file will still be 24/96 in a DVD-A too.
    What is your set top player? And what is the disc - I will check it out & see what is what.

    Okey Dokey.

    Please ignore reply in other post.
    Have you set WinDVD6 to output as 24/96?
    In the setup page under "Audio", there is an option to turn on 24/96 decoding - this is off by default. The Audio stream definitely is 24/96, the rate tells us that.

    The other place there may be a setting - I am not sure for certain though as it's the Creative Labs thing - if there is copy protection on the DVD-V disc, it might well be automatically downsampling to 48KHz and truncating to 16 bit. We will not know until you try that switch.

    Please let me know?

    What happens in a real set top player?

    This is beginning to smell of a problem with WinDVD, which is admittedly the best of a bad bunch, but flawed in so many ways.

    Looks like you will have to pull the tracks off the DVD-V and make your own DVD-A if you must play back in software
