Karl, read carefully : what is said is that the layer 2 is the only layer authorized for MPEG Audio on a DVD. It is NOT written that MP2 enters in the spec for ALL format of DVDs.
And NTSC DVDs do not have MP2 in their spec. See part 3.6.2 au DVDDemystified : Quote:

"Both MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 formats are supported." Or: "which goes against the DVD standard" Now, which is the correct definition, if the document contradicts itself :?: :lol: -kwag |
If the document is inconsistent then stop using it as the holy bible ;)
Since the DVD is born, that means a lot before the usenet FAQ has been compiled into the "DVD Demystified" document, the MPEG Audio is out of the spec for NTSC DVDs. Beside this, it's a well known fact that Philipps threaten to leave the DVD consortium if it does not accept to put MP2 in the spec of the PAL disc. Go on the MPEG.org site, and read the title of the documents that have been written on this toppic (unfortunately the documents themselves are not anymore available :-(). http://www.mpeg.org/MPEG/dvd.html#dvd-resources Quote:
http://www.mpeg.org/MPEG/DVD/Book_B/Audio.html Note that since this initial definition have been made, the situation has changed as PAL producers definitely droped the MPEG2 audio for their disc. |
That's pretty screwed up stuff :roll:
Thanks for the info and clarification Phil :) -kwag |
