It could well be in my head - I was off sick yesterday with a migraine (it was weirdly painless, but kept feeling sick and getting the aura thing, which was a first for me), so probably not in the best frame of mind for it. <span class="emoticon e_curlyhappy" title=":J"><span class="e__">:J</span></span><br /><br /> It could be an amp setting I've not found yet. I'm playing the original DVD-A through a player connected to the amp via an optical cable, whereas the rip is streamed from my PC via the HDMI on the Pi. It could be a difference in the modes set up for each of those interfaces.<br /><br /> Even though it's lossless the ripping software gives me different sample rates to rip it at, would that not affect the quality?!</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41511.9&return_msg=41511.9" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41511.9"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41511_10"></a><div class="message" id="message_41511_10"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: 99% of gargoyles look like (MR_BASTARD)<span class="message_time">17 Jun 2015 09:01</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: ANT_THOMAS <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 17 Jun 2015 09:09"></span></span> graphitone <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 17 Jun 2015 09:09"></span></span> <span class="message_count">10 of 18</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41511.10">41511.10</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41511.9#a41511_9" target="_self">41511.9</a></div> <div class="message_body"> <div class="quotetext"><b>quote:</b> <a href="messages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41511.9">graphitone</a></div> <div class="quote">Even though it's lossless the ripping software gives me different sample rates to rip it at,</div> <p>Does that even make sense for lossless?</p> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41511.10&return_msg=41511.9" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41511.10"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41511_11"></a><div class="message" id="message_41511_11"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: ANT_THOMAS<span class="message_time">17 Jun 2015 09:11</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: 99% of gargoyles look like (MR_BASTARD) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 17 Jun 2015 11:11"></span></span> <span class="message_count">11 of 18</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41511.11">41511.11</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41511.9#a41511_10" target="_self">41511.10</a></div> <div class="message_body"> FLAC is encoded, rather than a direct data copy and put in a different container, so samples rates do kinda make sense.
