DTS Audio Playback Issue

even I am trying to get dts audio to work. any solutions thus far?

The newest version of VLC supports DTS playback. Just tried it out myself on a Bluray DTS track for 3:10 to Yuma. Give it a spin. 🙂

The reason the DTS audio streams playback via iTunes is because iTunes sees the DTS WAV files as NORMAL WAV files. The very cunning DTS folk made DTS encoding work this way so that it is possible to create 5.1 discs that only use as much room as standard stereo audio data CD's. What this meant was that standard CD manufacturing processes could be used to manufacture 5.1 audio discs cheaply. So as long as your Mac's optical port is connected to a DTS capable de-coder, iTunes/QuickTime will pass the data out of what appears to be a regular WAV file to the optical output, the de-coder "sees" that it is DTS and will then decode. iTunes/QuickTime play no part in the DTS de-coding process.

I don't understand why DVD's with DTS streams aren't working for you, I have several DTS discs and they all work fine. Make sure you're using digital pass through.

FYI, you can convert DTS WAV files into Apple Lossless and you can then embed artwork and lyrics etc....

I have a DTS .wav file that plays fine in VLC and plays as static in iTunes. I'm trying to figure out how to convert it.
