What quality source audio is good for Blu-Ray DVDs?
For normal SD DVDs, I know 48 KHz, 16-bit audio was suitable as source audio quality.
I’m looking into making a significant investment in stock audio (music, SFX, etc…). I’d like to ‘future-proof’ myself a bit for the day that Blu-Ray becomes mainstream. What minimum source audio quality should I be looking for?
Is 48KHz, 16-bit still acceptable for blu-ray?

Hello Phillip,
Actually getting any sources of SFX and/or music over 16-bit, 44.1 may be a problem. 🙂 Most of those files are sent out on regular CDs.
There may be higher res versions. I haven’t bothered to look lately.
Anyone?
Regards,

Hey there Phillip, I know you posted this over a year ago, but i’ve got a solution for you here. Minnetonka Audio Software and DTS have released products for encoding and decoding audio for DTS-HD formats. It is called SurCode DTS-HD for Compressor. If you have any questions about it feel free to email me directly or check out the website here: https://www.dtshdforcompressor.com
