Newbie Question regarding DTS

[Tuning]

what are the basic filters needed for playback of DTS muxed AVI/OGM/MKV.Or is there any advanced filters like ac3 filter.Thanks.:confused:

[killingspree]

you can dl the filters from this link (http://www.doom9.org/Soft21/Filters/test.rar). iirc those are the only one available for non-dvd DTS playback.

I created small clip of avi with DTS muxed using AVI-Mux.And put the filters into system32 and run dll server.But if i tried to play this avi WMP9 shows error in downloading codec and plays video only.What can be the problem?:confused:

1) Try WMP6.4.

2) I assume you know that you have to register the ax-files.

2) Open the avi/dts in GSpot to see what codecs you are missing.

The filter pointed out by kiilinspree is the same coming with GKnot.And i have already installed it.But even now tring over WMP6.4 made no success.Do there is another problem?

I haven't muxed DTS audio into an AVI or MKV container yet, but I can playback standalone DTS tracks using the filters that come with WinDVD 5 Platinum.

AVI muxed with DTS cannot be played in winDVD powerDVD etc.Has any one tried this type of avi?.Please comment ur experiences.

[kl33per]

BTW I wasn't playing the standalone track in WinDVD, I was using Media Player Classic.

[Wilbert]

Could you open the avi in Graphedit, to see if the necessary dshow filters are used when playing in wmp.

Link seems to be "DEAD".
Pls post new link.
I'd like to try playing a DTS-track on my system....

The link is not dead, if you only get the leech page, go to doom9's (full?) software page -> filters and d/l from there.

OK, link suddenly works now (must be "Telenet", my internet provider that scrwed-up). Registered both ax-files in W2k/SP4 successfully. But I still can't play any DTS-files in WMP, MPC nor PowerDVD3.0.

MPC still directs me to the intervideo DVD 4.5 site, but there's no freeware version... What now?

Help greatly appreciated :)

You need iviaudio.ax (http://www.geocities.com/wilbertdijkhof). If you connected 5.1 speakers to your pc you have to buy windvd (because the 5.1 output is greyed out in the properties of iviaudio.ax if you don't have a registered version). If you connected a receiver to your pc, you have to set it on spdif.

Wilbert,

I followed your guide "avi_dts.pdf" to the letter (i suppose y'r the author :) (great guide btw!) and managed to install all the necessary filters correctly. MPC6460 and WMP6.4 play fine and don't complain about missing filters anymore but I GET NO SOUND with the DTS-track!
AC3 tracks play fine in all 3 modes: 2.0 analog, 5.1 DigitalOut and SPDIF DolbyDigitalOut on a DTT2500 Digital receiver ("Creative")
Could it be that the SB Live Player 1024 ("Creative") is incapable of DTS thru-put? Neither the 2ch stereo, 2ch surround nor the SPDIF direct output seem to work.
Switching to "digital output only" on Volume Controller makes no difference.
When i use GraphEdit to verify the filters everything looks exactly as you described.

Any suggestions?
(ps, i'm using W2k pro(NL) SP4, and official "LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe"- driver dated 10/03/2003 from Creative)

AlfaStation, its probably because the DTT2500 does not support DTS decoding.
