Sorry, really retarded of me to miss that. Doh

I found this in an earlier post:

By 5.1, I'm guessing you mean the DTS core? So, if I wanted to, I could compare the volume difference between the 5.1 and 7.1 and alter the decoded PCM's volume by that amount...

Why wouldn't this process be lossless? Wouldn't adding +Xdb and then subtracting the same -Xdb value to a PCM track return the same data? Sorry if I'm relatively uninformed on this matter.

And hopefully, I can assume, every channel in the decoded ArcSoft track is too soft by the same amount?
