[AUDIO] A100 & HD-DTS pass through ?

[buggymonkey]

HI All

sorry if this has been asked before I have searched and just couldn't find the answer .

I have a A100 which I have been muxing films down converting fromm HD -DTS noI am having to merge audio from lots of files I am getting warnings about to many frames .
when these warnings occure the A100 video freezes at each join
it plays flawlessly in BSplayer on my PC .

which means I need to remux to AC3 ...

I thought that if I buy an AMp that decodes HD-DTS this would solve my problem - so the question is will the A100 pass through HD-DTS

or do i just buy a c200??


many thanks for all input help

DTS-HD includes a DTS core, so the PCH plays the DTS core. Sounds like you have some settings wrong in your merging/muxing of the files.

Hi PTG
thanks for the reply ,
yeah I am not sure but as movies make use of the playlist more and more
it is coming more apparent ( bring back the single m2ts file )

I am using tsmuxer and don't change any settings
it works some times no problem eg inception ,
but say on 'Salt' I get this overlapping frame found at time stamp 00.03.15 .
if I demux the video only it plays no problem but add the audio as dts and it freezes at every overlap .
it must be the decoding method as it plays on the PC through nero and BSplayer without fault .

I do need to update the firmware so will try that but from the release notes I don't think it will change much

thanks again
M

Ok I have done some reading , boy it is hard to find this as all searches bring back DTS only problems .

for the record if anybody else finds this post I hope it helps.

read this link

basically tsmuxer can't join seemless branched audio with overlaps , it dropps data which none of the NMT players like ....including the C200.

( a PC play back is much more forgiving )

there seems to be no way to join and keep the DTS audio in these cases ( unless somebody can tell me how )

you need to use EAC3TO i used CLOWN BD and muxs to AC3 and the movie plays no problem .

The Audio IMO is not as good as the DTS I get , but that might be my amp it is quieter and voices are less distinct and effects a way louder .


if there is a way to join DTS-HD or DTS please please please tell me

hope that helps somebody
