Hi all,

In the advanced TAB under dtsdecoderdll.dll location , does it matter the location of the file? I pointed to a old TMT dtsdecoderdll.dll but not working.
Should I move dtsdecoderdll.dll to a system 32 directory? I am simply trying to get a 1:1 file structure conversion to MKV container. Media info shown below is my result and you can see there is no Format profile: MA / Core Lossless Any help please!

Thx
bw

Get newest MakeMKV version instead of fiddling with dtsdecoder.dll:
MakeMKV v1.9.3 ( 1.6.2015 )

DTS-HD decoding is now handled by open-source libdcadec library (dtsdecoderdll.dll is still required for DTS express only)

Buut, if you only want to copy (no re-encode audio) it should not be needed at all. Are you sure your Blu-Ray source has DTS-HD Ma? Not all Blu-Rays (or not all tracks in a given Blu-Ray) have them.

Make sure "DTS-HD lossless" is ticked. Should look like this:

If you can't make it work post a screenshot of your MakeMKV window (like above).

Thx for the reply..my source AVCHD files are structured rips so I do not have BD. However, mediainfo shows the main AVCHD file , see below. And when played in a standalone player decodes in DTS-HD.

One thing to add, I performed the conversion using MKVbatch.
