I only know Linux, sorry.Does anyone know if there is there an updated AC3 codec that came along with MPEG-4??
Although there are other ways to encode audio, I suggest sticking with the BD standard will have the best longevity.

I agree, I wasn't looking for a codec change, just wondering if there were similar audio enhancements to go along with the video ones...IMHO, it makes no sense to change the audio codec from AC3. Millions of people have A/V receivers that can decode AC3 from optical or coax inputs, tens of thousands more have TVs that can accept AC3 audio on HDMI and downmix it to play out the TVs speakers or pass it (possibly still as DD5.1) thru an optical output to an A/V receiver. If the audio were switched to AAC (part of the MPEG-4 standard), then millions of people would no longer be able to listen to discrete surround sound, and be forced to downmix to two channels. Makes no sense at all to change.
How did you get it to spell out 'December' in the R5000 ts name, BB? Is this in the date code settings?
From the MPEG group's website, they say that MPEG is "the development of standards for coded representation of digital audio and video".
Is "codec" an improper word ? Maybe... Only you would point it out though. Did everyone else understand what I meant ? I'd venture to say they did.
