Hi, thanks for posting the step-by-step guide - it was clear and easy to follow. However, when I played the CD I'd burnt in a couple of DVD players, all I heard was a clicking. Does this sound like the CD was burnt correctly but that my players (LG BD370 and Pioneer DV-757Ai) do not support AC3 CDs? If the latter is the case, can I convert the AC3 files to DVD format and try it that way? TIA, H. |

Thanks for the tips, Fan51. It turned out that the CD was just fine. My blu-ray player didn't seem to want to play ball at all. The Pioneer is used as a SACD/DVD-A player and is connected to my Denon AV amp with spam links - it seemingly couldn't decode the AC3 itself. However when I connected the Pioneer with a toslink cable to the Denon everything worked perfectly. Robert Fripp soundscapes sound very lush in surround. |

Halloway, I'd be curious to hear about your experience with SPEC itself. What was easy about it? Confusing? Did you make any tweaks, or experiment with any settings? How comfortable do you feel with tweaking and going into a second conversion? |

Hi, no, I didn't touch SPEC at all, I just left it on its default settings (although I did bypass ZPan, I think.) I thought I'd get the hang of the basic stuff first. I've read through the SPEC thread a couple of times already and there are some unfamiliar terms and concepts I am going to have to get my head around. H. |
