In Reply to: DVD player playback sample rates posted by bdiament on February 26, 2004 at 10:30:35:

For anyone who is curious, I've found that the DVD-V standard allows for sampling rates of 48k and 96k, at 16, 20 or 24 bits.

So the answer to my question is:
No, 88.2k won't work. DVD-V players will need the 88.2k material converted to 96k in order to play it back on the PCM tracks of a DVD-R.

The upshot for me is that I'll make my recordings at 96k/24bit so they'll be playable on any DVD player.

Thanks for all the input.

Happy Listening!
