I need a software that will allow me to play DTS-CD's on my PC. I have a sound card with Coaxial Output (Sound Blaster Live). Note: I already can see movies that have DTS soundtrack encoded into them, but cannot play actual DTS-CD's. Thanks |

morgile, In addition to the VLC a helpful sitemember showed you below in the comments section, you can also try this... Another solution that has proven to work is to use the 2 pin digital output of your CD/DVD-ROM and connect it directly to the digital input of your receiver/amp. This method will bypass your sound card all together, sound cards might alter the stream and render the audio useless so the bypass is preferable. Keep in mind that your sound card should be capable of passing compliant Redbook audio. DTS 5.1 Audio CDs might not work using the SPDIF digital out port if your sound card up-samples the stream to 48kHz (SoundBlasters upsample). Unfortunately it seems most complaint WDM drivers are not capable of this for the moment but if your running Win9x then the VxD drivers should work. However, the M-Audio 24/96 or Delta Dio are reported to play the DTS audio over SPDIF perfectly. Also, http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?showtopic=20711& Has some ideas you might try. Nenna-GA Google Answers Researcher Also, "If you have WinDVD platinum, install hypercube's DTSWAV filter, then you can use any directshow player (eg. windows media-player). Note that to use the DTSWAV filter, you must rename the files from *.wav to *.dtswav. If you have PowerDVD or any other DTS player, you first need to use BeSplit/BeSliced in order to extract the 5.1DTS stream out of the DTS-WAV." |
