I would like to consider this release either as a Mile Stone or a Hammer Blow b'coz "The World" of Encoders and Rippers is yet not ready for 7.1 channels We literally started dancing when we blasted 8 channel video. Recently I was fixing my buddy's Windows system and came to know about features in this latest release.
#AC3 FILTER 5.1 PLUS#
