Please help, every time I try to play the .mkv video file with DTS-HD, like example transformers I and II the sound will brick and brick, until I set to DPrologic format. My PC install with Asus Xonar DS use SPDIF out to my receiver which only have DTS decoder,
anyone know what cause the brick and brick sound? is it PC codes problem or DTS-HD to DTS decoder will cause this.

I don't have a Sonar card but I'm pretty sure a SPDIF connection doesn't have enough bandwidth to carry a DTS-HD signal to your AVR. You need a HDMI cable for that.

Oh wait, I didn't actually read your question properly.
What player are u using to play your mkv file. I used to have this problem using MPC:HC but I believed I installed AC3 filter which solves the problem. I could be wrong though.. its been the longest time since I used my PC to play mkv files..maybe others here will have a better idea.

MKV got DTS-HD wan ar?

^ Good point..I've downloaded mkvs where the say it has DTS-HD (based on the filename) but all it has is DTS.

it means the source from dts hd, not the mkv including dts hd

with DTS play Cars, Transformers 1 and 2 english ver. only have brick problem, but eagles australia tour 2009 DTS runing smooth.
what happen??? could it be codeing problem?? any recomended others than ac3 filter(curently using)

1st. MKV files shall not provide HD codecs
2nd. What type of player are you using to play this mkv movie

Hardware problem minimal ... it should either be the codec, player software or the file it self.
And last ... what type of cables are you using ?
