I've been experimenting with VLC, somehow it seems that there is more 'punch' to anything I put out through VLC as opposed to itunes and I was wondering what general opinion on this is.
I run an optical cable out the back of my imac to my azur 540r which does the decoding.
I have a number of theories as to why this could be:
-VLC is upsampling
-Itunes is applying filters even without the equalizer, volume leveling or that sound enhancer BS
-or VLC is doing something similar that i've yet to turn off
-I'm imagining things
VLC also has an encoded output function which you have to use if you want proper multichannel. Does anyone know whether this will make a difference on music?
Does anyone know of anyway to use a library with VLC?
Cheers
