This was announced on the FLAC pages...

DVD-Audio Solo DVD-A authoring software supports FLAC.

i tried the demo and it didnt 'like' 24/96 FLACs...

That seems weird since on this page they talk about flac and upsampling to 24 bit 96kHz. I would hope that they support 24/96 without conversion.

I don't have a DVD burner on this computer, but I installed the demo and dragged a 24/96 FLAC file from the left window to the middle window. It seemed to take it ok.

At what point to you get an error?

when i tried to burn the disc...

Got the software installed on another computer. I did get a disc to burn tonight using 24/96 flacs.

The software seems to build an image file first, then goes through a burn process. Each time, you get progress indicated with the pie chart. So there seems to be two distinct steps.

I just need something now that I can play the DVD-A on. The DVD player at home doesn't like it, but an iMac at least recognizes the disc, though it reports it as being an unsupported disc type. I will need to hook up a DVD player capable of playing DVD-A.

P.S. forgot to mention... I emailed their tech support this week and they indicated that it should work with 24/96 flac files. If it's not working for you they might want to dig into the problem to find out why.
