gotta pay the license fee which is pretty steep....

it's virtually the same as in m/s decoding nobody copyrights that.dolby only used a natural audio process.take a look at this

maybe so, but the article speaks of licensing. dolby copywrote what they did....

Ok so I'll have to do it for myself then I guess,as you seem to want to have the last word.

Gary wasn't wrong.
It's easy to be led into confrontation, but I know from experience that it's not worth it on ANY level. (other than REAL defence)

Ok so this is what I tried out.It seems to roughly work,you make 2 more wave outs from the same wave out and feed them into individual channels.on one channel you invert the phase of the left channel,and on the other you invert the phase of the right.Now you put both individual channels into 2 1632 mixers, for example, and make their outputs mono.The left phase output you make left and the right phase output you make right.The left phase output,which is now mono,you put back left and the right phase output which is mono,you put back right.The centre output I'm not there yet.

that was a very good article in the link above.
Now I have a scientific explanation for what my ears always told me about the Dolby nonsense (imho)
anyway, whatever you do - keep the Dolby papers in mind (their content).
Even if you develope a solution completely on your own - if it happens to work similiar to their patent, they can sue you.
And even if the case turns out pointless eventually, it will have ruined you before.
aside from that I cannot imagine why a Scope card couldn't do that trick.
most likely someone has already written such a device, but is aware of the lawyers.
In such cases the patent covers the result, not just the method by which it's achieved.
cheers, Tom
