But the huge mind-blowing surprise was finding that you can get 6.1 on 44.1 cd audio
Same experience & surprise here (also played with "007: Die Another Day").

There also is a 6.1 dtswav at SR 5.1 MultiKanal which can be used for testing. On that page, scroll down to "Saga". It says "Coded in DTS-ES, 6.1 Discrete. (All in Swedish)", but my feeling is that it is 'matrixed SC (based on demux and SurCode-reencode).

I have a feeling that things like Besweets Normalization etc may change the signal enouth to confuse the decoder?
I always use BeSweet's PreGain Normalization to 100% ( "-ota( -g max )" ), and for me, it worked very good with I, J, & K (RC-1 dll-versions). I realize that DSPGuru recommends using the exact "PreGain Extract Peak chunk" option ( "-ota( -g peak )" ), but I had some problems not doing it "correctly" (which I attributed to the work-in-progress on how Bidule's filewriter actually writes the data).

Andreas
