What about Dolby Digital? Can work? failed as in no DTS or DOLBY output to receiver.btw, how much did you pay for this converter and where did you buy it? personally, i'll feel if all else fails, your only option will be to get an external sound card like Creative Extigy. i using denon 1907 AVR, confirm got DTS support. source material also confirm got suround, coz when play using dvd player got DTS appear on receiver. i got a second hand unit from garage sale. well, i using laptop. and dont wish to invest further on soundcard. |

How about normal tv rip which don't have DTS or DD? cable ok.if play song or other movie then got sound come out. i play DTS or DD then the receiver decode it to stereo instead of surround. so i only get stereo but not surround T.T |

QUOTE(Mooshi @ May 29 2009, 09:47 AM) I'm not sure how your converter works, but you should pass the AC3/DTS signal to your sound card. Is the converter consider a sound card device? hmmm, i will gv it a try.Go install the K-Lite codecs (with AC3 filter). Select AC3 filter as your default decoder and run AC3, then check the box to "passthrough" the AC3 and DTS signals. i suppose it 'should' pass raw signal n let receiver to decode watever source it is. but then, it doesnt turn out wat i expected it should be. |
