Hi there,
first of all I wanted to take the time to say a big THANK YOU for continuing to develop ReClock - I would be lost without it!
Having used the "original" last version for a couple of months now, I got tired of the sound hickups when watching PAL media on a 24p screen and installed ReClock 1.8.3. First things first: The re-encoding of audio worked out of the box, actually without even changing settings.
Here is question 1: Sadly, my AMD 5200+ EE seems to be a little to weak to re-encode audio at the highest setting ("Excellent") and still having enough headroom to play a 1080p mkv file (while doing some smaller stuff in the background).
Is it possible to tell ReClock to re-encode audio only with selected media, such as PAL dvds? The old ReClock version worked fine for me, adapting 23.9xx Hz to 24 Hz without re-encoding, and it saves a lot of cpu cycles. So what I would love is the ability to use spdif passthrough whenever I watch a 24Hz file and re-encoding after resampling only if I use 25Hz media.
Question 2: What happens to DTS soundtracks? I just tried out, there still seems to be 6 channel surround sound, but my receiver says "Dolby Digital" with a DTS soundtrack. So, I figure the DTS audio gets re-encoded to DD, that's why the receiver shows. Is there some way to circumvent this and have either a DTS re-encoding or, as qith question 1, just passthrough?
I figure if I have a DTS soundtrack re-encoded to DD, there should be some loss in dynamics and quality, right?
Thanks for your help and sory for not being brief, but I thought I'd rather point out exactly what my "problems" are. If you guys are German, let me just point out that my problem is "jammern auf hohem niveau" (whining at the highest stage)...
