If you had done a search of the forums then you would see that it's not possible ATM.

I think MaTTeR was referring to the DTS to WAV question. As for using the PCM soundtrack, it should be possible to demux it from the vob file. Try DVD2AVI.

You could also create a DTS audio CD if you will be playing it back on a system with a DTS decoder and you have a DVD or CD player with digital outputs.

You can demux DTS with Bbdmux but there are no free software decoders available that I know of.

made a search on DTS and this post came up...I don't reallt get this so if somebody could help me a little bit here :)

DTS and AC3 are two ways of encoding high quality surround sounds, yes?

What I know there are no free AC3 filters either...the must of us uses filters from WinDVD and those are not free. As I also understand it, powerDVD and WinDVD support decoding of DTS audio, so why is there no way to "take" the filter out ot WinDVD (as with AC3) so we can have DTS as well?

I suppose that DTS and AC3 are totally different, so trying to multiplex an AVI with DTS using "AC3" in Nandub wouldn't work?

AFAIK the problem is really that none of the rippers seem to address the DTS stream properly. So ATM we have no way of getting the stream off the DVD. To be honest, there isn't much interest in this because of the very large file size that a DTS stream would take up. In some cases it could be twice the size of a similar DD 5.1 stream. So if you put it into context, most of your rips would jump from 2 CDs all the way to 3 or even 4CDs:eek:

hm...so it's that big...then I can really understand why there's no really point in it...

By the way MaTTeR I'm looking at 5.1 ripps all the time now, just short clipps to watch all the synch that wasn't there a couple a weeks ago :))

To verify:

As there is written:
Surcode can create a dts out of 6 waves ?

But I thought about the possiblity:

dts extracting out of vob / DVD containing a dts track.
Then patch dts track with wave header to burn aus CDDA, playing CDDA, digital out of CDDA into dig. in of receiver that is able to decode dts and to give it to 5 speakers....

Any way existing for this aim ?

Have you looked into using BeSure? DSPguru loves it and I'm going to try it this weekend myself.
