In fact it's true (again, contrary to Mr. Rat's | free-association-masquerading-as-informed-posting), see | http://www.minidisc.org/atrac2_paper/3.html where they show the | particulars of the Huffman code table.
Yep. My bad. [...] | Sony did in fact provide for future expansion by allocating bits in | the UTOC to indicate different encodings (see | http://www.minidisc.org/md_toc.html#sec0cstruct), the problem is that | non-MDLP players seem to ignore the encoding bits and try and play | everyting as SP audio. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Sony never enforced that bit as a standard with other vendors. | 1024/212=4.83. Saying it removes "4 bits out of every 5" makes it | sound like it operates without regard to longer periods in the signal, | which seems misleading. In hindsight I can see that. It was not my intent. -- Rat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> \ Happy Fun Ball may stick to certain types Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ of skin.
