I have noticed that many music DVD when ripped - with the 2ch audio selected - have clipped audio. The signal max is often well below 0db but the waveform is easy to see that it is clipped (flat lined).
Does anyone know why is this the case and is there anything that can be done about it by way of background settings in codecs or filters?
BTW : To get around this clipping issue, I rip with either DVDFab or Shrink, selecting only the 6ch audio (which I find is never clipped), load all 6 audio channels into editing software and down mix to stereo, involving many steps and taking a lot of time.
