Mmm I have some catching up to do
this is the first time I heard of MDLP.
How does it work exactly.
different pitch smaller pits ??

This improvement to the "Rainbow Book" MiniDisc standard is achieved by
implementing the ATRAC3 codec which is more efficient than the ATRAC codec
specified for MD. Audio data encoded in this manner is "packed out" in a
manner to suit the standard cluster sizes used on "Rainbow Book" audio
MiniDisc media. Playing any tracks recorded using MDLP on a regular MD deck
would result in silence being heard because the audio data is of a different
format to the original ATRAC format.
Most of the earlier ATRAC3 codecs will be regarded as sounding pretty awful
because that codec needs to be tweaked in the same manner as what happened
to the original ATRAC codec. Therefore newer MDLP decks will be made to
sound better under LP2 & LP4 once ATRAC3 undergoes some revision.
With regards,
Simon Mackay
