    What does "0-bit sample precision" mean?

    I have noticed that Nandub is telling me I have a file with 0-bit sample precision. It sounds good, is it? The file is a perfectly good AC3 AVI with 5 channel DD sound. I understand all the other terms, but do not know what that means. Does that mean the sampling is so accurate it is within 0 bits?

    Thanks,

    I could be wrong, but I think this is simply because nandub can't detect the sample precision. Most audio streams use either 8 or 16 bit samples. 0 bit makes no sense because it would mean that each sample contained no information.
