I plan to get one of those cheap universal players that can play dvds, cds , mp3 files on a cd etc etc. Here is my question. When a Cd with mp3 files is played on such a mp3 compatible player, is the output a digital bitstream (coax/optical) or only from the analog outputs of the player. In other words, can these players output a digital signal like they do for normal Cds and Dvds (so i can feed it into a receiver/preamp) or do i HAVE to use the analog outputs of such a player. Anyone use these universal players? thanks in advance ck

My Philips outputs PCM when I play mp3s. Some of the Panasonics can also play WMAs.
hi, when you mean it outputs pcm, do you connect the digital output of your cd/dvd player to the receiver? or the analog outputs . i am guessing that this is a player specific thing. i have a feeling my player does it only through analog (or atleast i havent figured out how to get it to work through digital) thanks

I get PCM from the digital-outs. The analog works as well.

I have a cheap DVD player which can play mp3 Cd also. It is currently connected to the TV, I was wondering can I just connect it to some speakers or music system and be able to listen to MP3 Cds?
