In VDub file editing, audio>full processing, there is a "hi-quality" switch. Anyone know what this does?? If I already have my audio in 44.1 stereo 16-bit, what would the hi-quality do? I am guessing it is like a filter to remove "hiss" maybe, but anyone know for sure? Anyone use this feature?

thanks

VDub, open avi file, set audio to full processing, go into "conversion", and where you can convert from say 48 to 44.1, there is a toggle box for "high-quality"...

The "high quality" switch is misnamed -- it should be renamed to "don't suck." It changes the audio resampling mode from point sampled (nearest neighbor) to a triangle filter (linear). The triangle filter is still pretty poor, but as you guessed it does a better job at reducing hiss after resampling. I haven't gotten around to implementing better audio resampling filters as I have with video, primarily because there isn't much quality to begin with in the VHS and broadcast sources I use when experimenting.
