| What's the deal with the 48 KHz sampling frequency? Is this the standard
| for all DVD's?
There is no audio sampling frequency on DVD-ROM or DVD-RAM or the plethora
of rewritable DVD data standards, so when you mean DVD-Video, say DVD-Video
to avoid confusion.
In the US the audio requirement for DVD-Video (Digital Versatile Disc -
Video) is AC-3 (aka Dolby Digital). AC-3 allows for sampling frequencies
from as low as 44.1KHz if not lower up to 96KHz. The actual sampling
frequency used on a given video disc depends on the author.
Then there is DVD-Audio, but I won't go there because nobody else has :).
