DVD recorder audio quality?

Posted by Allen Wright on August 18, 2008 at 08:07:22:
I have a European Panasonic DMR-ES10 DVD recorder and need to use it as a back-up recorder to make some Live hi quality audio recordings, and it's my only other recoding device beside analog tape.

The specs in the User Manual only say: Audio: "Dolby Digital" and give ZIP further info.

Does anyone know if it records in CD 44/16 format, or better, and how the recording format changes as the recording times go from one hour up to ultra slow at eight hours?

I know for sure the pix quality goes down, but never have had the chance to really test the audio.

Thanks, Allen
