Hello everyone,
While I pride myself in knowing a lot about home theater especially Audio I am still learning in the area of PC connections to home theater systems.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a software capable of viewing bluray and outputting the sound DTS? My laptop came bundled with Corel Win DVD and no matter what I try (bluray and DVD) the sound is always output dolby digital via optical.
I have a few theories.
Bluray does not contain regular DTS format and DTS Master audio is only available via HDMI else the sound is downgraded to Dolby digital
but this does not explain why I can't get DTS when watching a regular DVD.
I have windows 7 and there is a test available for DTS to see if the receiver is compatible. When I test my sound card my Yamaha receiver displays that it is receiving DTS from the laptop so I know my sound card is capable.
Does anyone else have a setup similar to this that has a movie player they recommend for best sound and picture.
thanks a lot
