Why is it sooo hard for someone to come up with a way to support lossless high definition audio codecs on a computer? It seems like we have been waiting for years to have someone support Dolby TrueHD. Blu-ray drives are under $100. But you still cannot “hear” HD audio from Blu-ray movies using those drivesr.
Auzentech originally stated that the X-Fi HomeTheater HD would be available in November. Then it was January 09. Now it is “first quarter 09.” I am beginning to think this is vaporware, like all those slick Sideshow remotes. From the Auzentech website:
The Auzen X-Fi HomeTheater HD outputs a bitstream of high-definition, multichannel audio from Blu-ray Discs with no downsampling, to take full advantage of lossless digital audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. Developed in partnership with Creative, Cyberlink and Silicon Image, the X-Fi HomeTheater HD has broad support for the latest audio technologies in the marketplace.
