LPCM is "lossless" but needs much more space. But outside of Apple-ware, it still needs more time to mature in the general market. MP3 needs less space than AC3 and plays almost anywhere on all devices today, but is usually not associated with the best quality.ĪAC has among the best compression - better than AC3 and MP3. Usually AC3 comes with "special MKVs" since it's usually the original audio track from the disc it was ripped from - so expect great quality in that case. It's a widely accepted standard to the point where MP4 finally gave in and accepted it too. MKV is only a container (like the glass I described) which can accept almost anything.ĪC3 is the "Cadillac" of audio formats - a bit old and fat but very luxurious. It runs on its own set of codecs.Īs for best audio, it all depends. But ffdshow is still very good too, and free.Īnd if all you want is playback of the most important stuff without any codecs - VLC VideoLAN will do just fine. (I would also install either the DivX or Xvid codec for other color space compatibilities as well.)Īs for ffdshow vs CoreAVC, well I would give the edge to CoreAVC. All you really need is ffdshow and Haali's splitter and you're set. They put "stuff" on your computer and are total junk. Stay away from codec packs - they are EVIL. What is the best drink for my glass? Does my glass care what I put in it? What is best audio codec for mkv files? AC-3? is there any better?
