HDCD flag

[ddhd]

Hi

I selected the HDCD tag under the metadat options but when I go to windows explorer and place the curser over the track name it doesnt show it's an HDCD track?

I did NOT and choose NOT to select the HDCD dsp option. Does this matter?

Thanks

Re: HDCD flag

Yes you need the DSP effect for it to be detected, or perhaps the technical column enabled in CD Ripper.

Great info about the technical column:0
Thanks for your replies

Re: HDCD flag

As long as you rip to lossless, I would not use the HDCD plugin. You can always detect HDCD content later, as it is flagged in-signal. (Indeed, that's what HDCD.exe does.) I use a media player which handles HDCD on-the-fly, much like a HDCD-enabled DAC does (that is, it misses the feature that HDCD.exe also misses).
