What do you think is the best DVD-Audio Playing software? PowerDVD has good effects support but even when you chose play DVD-Audio isntead of DVD-Video it still plays the the DVD-Video part which will slightly degrade the output quality plus visuals are distracting from the music. Creative DVD-Audio player only plays the DVD-Audio part even if a disc has both Audio and Video but it lacks effects (Dolby, DTS, SRS, etc.) plus it doesn't work for me anymore >.< Which software do you think is the best for DVD-Audio playback?

because the player will have to process audio and the video which will cause a slight loss of quality in the audio no matter how good your processor is since it all depends on the software.

LOL, good joke... HAHAHAHAHA

That has got to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard... you are joking, right? Modern processors are quite good at concurrency, so I don't see why audio quality would degrade.

Don't spread misinformation here. You'll only get shot down and draw the ire of everyone here.

Especially, it won't degrade as some of you might imagine (loss of high frequencies or whatever). Even if your CPU is not strong enough (I used to watch DVDs with a Pentium II at 333 MHz!) the audio and video might stutter.
