Howdy all.
I have encoded some DTS audio via following method
1) Use Eac3to to output 6 mono wavs from the 5.1 LPCM track of a blu-ray.
2) Encode the 6 wavs to DTS using Surcode 1.0.21
3) Run the DTS through Eac3to "remove the zero padding" (I don't know what this Zero Padding is, but i know that until i remove it, the DTS track plays slightly slower than it is supposed to.)
Ok, so I was listening to it, and I can here this occasional static/popping, as if I had my speakers cranked up to to loud. Except they wern't up terribly, and I have really good brand new speakers (Logitech z5500). So I played some other stuff, with original untouched audio, Die Hard 4 with original DTS and Rambo 4 with original Dolby, and I didn't notice it.
Unfortunatly, I don't have access to the original sources.
So my question is, is Surcode like... crappy or something ? The person who 1st clued me into the Zero Padding thing and how to fix the sync issues, referred to Surcode as being a "Dirty Encoder"...
