anyone heard of this format before?
the sound card i've got is SB Audigy gamer, it's a bit of an old one but it works well, anyways it introduced me to quite a different type of music format.
it's called .ac3 and the thing that's so special about it is that: one. practically the only player that supports it is the playcenter that comes with SB and two. it supports 5.1 or more sound channels, i found that quite odd i've heard of wav actually doing that but not being able to edit it the only thing is, it's like 3 or more wav files in one, aweosme quality, it has left & right for front rear or which ever channels sub and center it has an awesome compression rate for 3 mins of 6 different channels, 3 mins is only 10mb on it. but i was wondering if anyone has ever heard of this format, much less knows about an editor for it..thx
