Open AC3 Files

AC3 is a popular Dolby Digital audio format that features a wide range of distinct frames. Every AC3 document can contain up to a maximum of 6 audio blocks, and each of them can feature 256 audio samples per channel.

Furthermore, AC3 tracks can also integrate a subwoofer output, also known as 5.1 surround sound. Surround sound systems are widely spread within the gaming and audiophile communities, since it can enhance the quality of the contents by providing a richer sound, with more depth.

In order to be able to access AC3 files, users will need to select a compatible audio player. Modern audio players come with AC3 support, but some of the older ones require additional decoding or encoding plugins support. However, just sticking to an AC3-compatible player is an easier way to enjoy the appropriate files.

AC3 players can typically be used for generating rich playlists that contain not only AC3 documents, but also tracks of other formats such as MP3, WAV, OGG and more. More so, some of them can be customized by installing additional plugins, which unlock a broader range of capabilities regarding playback, bitrate and the overall quality of the input files the users wants to listen to.
