... you probably did not realise this, but my post was agreeing with your view and in fact was trying to clarify it.i think you got so used to contradicting everything i say you don't even read what i post anymore, you automatically assume i'm criticizing you. of course, you are "usually" wrong and "deserve" to be corrected but that's another topic for another day :-)

I wasn't shure you understanded what I meant:> >
Frank is wrong (or at the very least misleading) when he suggests the core data decoding reconstructs "all" the samples. as we know, dts is a lossy encoder, so the reconstructed samples merely approximate the 48kHz stream.
< <I just tried to clarify that I didn't suggest what you wrote in the quote above.
*** It clearly indicates that the extension data is used to reconstruct all the samples in the decoder. ***No.
The extension data will never reconstruct *all* the samples, or even *any* of the samples. It's a lossy process, you never get back the original 96/24 stream. Only a close approximation.
I never implied a lossless process.My rough outline of the encoding process included the psycho acoustic lossy encoding of the 24/96 data as a first step.
It's obvious to all that information lost after that stage can never be reconstructed.
... that statement would still be wrong, when taken literally.Don't worry, Frank, I know what you meant (and I said so, remember?) I'm just teasing you as usual :-) No need to get into your usual "tortured justifications" :-)
