Hi, there.
I'm trying to play some 24-bit 96hz audio files (.FLAC and .WAV) on my Playstation 3 since my PC's soundcard is too low end to play these.
Is there any way I could achieve this? So far I'm looking at two options to maintain the 24/96 nature;
1.) Burning my own DSD disc - you can do this on any conventional DVD-R/DVD+R burner, correct?
2.) Burning my own DVD-Video-compatible disc.
3.) Through using a file manager to transfer the files in .WAV format to the PS3 HDD, then play them back from there?
What do you guys think?
Thank you! |

Haven't tried it yet but here are some quick answers:
1. Yes, this should work. Technically it's still a DVD, not an SACD. You'll need to convert the sound into DSD, however.
2. If the sound is multichannel it's not going to work on PS3 because that would consitute a DVD-Audio disc. If the 96kHz 24bit audio file stereo, it probably still needs (dummy) video with it to be DVD-Video-compliant. Not sure to what extent authoting packages support this.
3. The question probably is: what file manager to use? |

Okay, I got it working. I used this software; http://www.audio-dvd-creator.com/ , which was pretty junky .. but it got the job done and did what I wanted it to (had options to choose exactly what range I wanted the audio to be encoded at).
I had to convert my file (which was in .FLAC format) to .WAV using the newest version of dbpoweramp before I could import them into that program, though.
The PS3 played back the file, the top bar displayed that it was playing at 24/96 -- mission accomplished! |
