Don't shoot me!

Thanks for the input!

Fact is, I don’t know.  It was here I got the connection between WMP ‘Audio Lossless’ and FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec).  I don’t know that to be correct, personally.

The ‘lossless’ IS from WMP 9.00.00.3364, with no DSPs running/loaded.  I presume WMP to be using the ‘Windows Media Audio Codec’ it came with.

I don’t see a choice between 16/24-bit in WMP.

If a 24-bit length codec behaves as you describe, does that mean WMP-9 lossless files are 24-bit?

I looked briefly on the web for an answer…didn’t find an answer to that.

Is 24-bit depth something that even comes on CDs?  CD format is 44,100b/s, with each sample being 16 bits long…I thought.  Guess you could still make 24-bit words out of it if you wanted to.  Have NO idea why you would do that. 

If you have a link that references bit length (not bit RATE for anyone sped-redding this post) and different codecs, including WMP-9, I’d sure appreciate it. 

Thanks!
