POTA DTS sound drop out (1 Viewer)

[Ron Eastman]

I experienced dropouts at 3 different times on my Toshiba SD-2200 when using the DTS track. Each time I reversed to a point prior to the dropout and I didn't experience the dropout again at that spot. Very annoying. :frowning:

No dropouts on my Marantz 7010
but
did anyone else think the layer change was nasty?

 

[Paul E. Fox II]

Yes...I thought the Layer Change was pretty ugly:frowning: .

 

[Steve Tannehill]

No recurring drop-outs on the Sony 9000ES/Yamaha DSP-A1 combo, however the layer switch was indeed jarring.

I thought I had read somewhere that the dts drop out problem had something to do with a specific decoder used in certain recievers and/or pre/pros. I have had drop outs on dts material on almost any disc I play- but it doesn't seem to affect music discs like it does movies. Perhaps it is this "seemless branching"???

I had problems with Sony, and Tecnics recievers, but never one dropout on dvd with Denon......

I watched it yesterday and noticed no dropouts on the DTS track.

In fact I found out that my old Toshiba passes the DTS signal right to my receiver despite the fact that the player isn't supposed to be able to pass a DTS signal.

The DTS certainly does sound better than AC-3 in this case anyway.

I had several dropouts on the DTS track on my Toshiba 2109. Of course I have those same dropouts and pops when watching the DTS track on T2:UE.

Hi Guys!

Thanks for all the responses. I was hoping it was a bad disc - at least then I could exchange it for one with a flawless dts track.

If you had drop outs, are you using optical or coaxial for your connection?

Thanks,

Aaron

No drop outs with my Denon AVR-5700 & Panny R91

 

[Jeff Gibbons]

I had dropouts with Toshiba 5109.

As mentioned earlier, I experienced dropouts at 3 different times on my Toshiba SD-2200 when using the DTS track. I'm using an optical connection.

 

[Dave H]

No problems on my Panasonic RV80 using optical. That layer change was pretty bad!

 

[Wes]

Just remember, thoughs of you who have Onkyo and Integra DD/DTS recievers will get drop outs on DTS if you have your Re-Eq engaged!

No Drop outs with My 2700 Toshiba and Pioneer VSXd709s.

No dropouts on my Toshiba SD4700/Onkyo 797 combo. I was using a digital coax connection. I did have dropouts on Jurassic Park DTS when i first got the player and was using an optical connection. Switched to coax and never got a dropout again. I was using the Marantz SR7200 at the time for a receiver and some people have had dropout problems with that unit. So i don't know if it was the 4700 or the Marantz receiver.

No dropouts on my Toshiba SD4700/Onkyo 797 combo. I was using a digital coax connection.

Looks like the problem lies with the optical out, since I had numerous POTA DTS dropouts on my new Toshiba 4700. Any suggestion on a digital coax cable?

 

[Dalton]

I have an AR pro series 3 ft digital cable. Got it for $20 at BB i believe.

 

[David_Jr]

About three dropouts on my Tosh SD 2109

 

[Jovan J]

Toshiba SD-6200 / Denon AVR-4800
No dropouts on DTS track.

Could it be the POTA disc's DTS track that is giving such drop-outs instead of the players ?

I have a Pioneer/Onkyo combination and always engaged the

RE-Q mode on the Receiver. Never experienced any drop-outs

with DTS or DD tracks. I use Monster Digital co-axial cable

but not optical coz its fragile !
