DVD audio and the DDTS--100

Whenever i play7 a dvd audio cd through vlc player, the DDTS-100 doesn't detect it's DTS.
Its the same with Power DVD, it doesn't detect DTS and so plays nothing.
What am i doing wrong? When i play it through vlc, i have to use ned 6 or pro logic II.
Thanks

Not sure what you mean about disabling AC3. In audio controls i have set it to SPDIF.
DVD movies work fine in VLC and Power DVD.
Audio cd's that are encoded in DTS do not. They are not detected by the decoder, and doesn't set it to DTS like it does with movies that are encoded in DTS. (True DTS, not Pro-Logic II or NED:6).
I've set in the options of VLC, to use SPDIF where possible, only it doesn't show when playing them. I only get the option of changing from mono, stereo, front and rear, and 5.1. When selecting 5.1, it isn't right, some sounds aren't audiable. Stereo isnt either. This makes me believe that the software is doing the decoding, not the DDTS-100, which must be true, as i only get the options of PLII and NED:6 on the DDTS-100 box, instead of it lighting up as DTS, DTS-ES etc.
So what do i do?
Winamp causes it to play white noise, as does Power DVD (which is set to SPDIF, evidenced by the fact it plays DTS movies fine) and WMP.
Do you need seperate DTS audio codecs for Power DVD? I heard this may be the case but you have to pay, seems odd that you need to purchase seperate drivers for dts audio cds, yet the movie plays ok.

  • Connecting to my T6060 5.1 speakers with a DVD player thru Decoder DDTS-100

    Hi, I have a DVD player which has 2.1 audio output (left and right), a coaxial and an optical audio output. Can you tell me how to connect the creative T6060 (5.1) speakers with the DVD player. Can I connect the speaker with the DVD player with the decoder DDTS-100 to get 5.1 effect. Will the speakers would be working. Thanks,Jwell

    Your speakers should have a cable with 3 plugs on the end (orange, green and black). That plugs into the matching sockets on the DDTS-100, and you set the switch to 5.1. Then you need a lead to connect the dvd and its up to you if its coaxial or optical. For coaxial you can use pretty much any phono to phono lead, which you may already have. Ive got a feeling the DDTS-100 comes with one of each anyway. Thats all there is to it.

  • Question about the Headphone Jacks on the DDTS-100

    This is probably a strange question, but I am goona ask anyway...
    Anyone know whether the headphone jacks on the DDTS-100 gets Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Pro Logic II? I know it supports it for speakers, but I am unsure about headphones.
    I am considering buying this with Medusa 5.1 Headphones, and I am trying to figure out whether the Dolby Pro Logic II would work with those.
    From what I understand regular 5.1 Headphones do not use the 5 channels unless it is a 5 channel source like a DVD. What I am thinking is that the Dolby Pro Logic II on the decoder might solve that?
    Would this work?
    Thanks for your time!

    Thank you both very much for your help!
    Yes, I was considering pluging it in exactly as ya just mentioned connecting the headphones via the speaker ports, since the Medusa Headphones do have the same plugs as the 5.1 speakers.
    Soo, that might work then? Cool! ty
    Now that I look at it, the headphones instructions on the cords on the net mentions pluging it in exactly like that.
    Thanks again!,

  • Dynamic Mode on the DDTS-100

    I have a set of Gigaworks S700 plugged into my DDTS-00 hooked up to my DVD player via Coax and man does it sound great. My question is about Dynamic Mode, it is very vague to what it does and it also lists something optional for it etc...what is optional for dynamic mode? How does it work...how do you know if its on or off? Any info on this will help. Not very much info on the site or in the manual. And if I send a email to support it usually doesnt get anwsered...or they dont know what it is either.

    Dynamic is the default. Notice this: When you press the Dynamic mode button on the remote, all of the LED's on the decoder's volume button will flash, press it again and only 4 of the volume buttons LED's will flash - this is how you tell the difference. All LED's = uncompressed/loud and 4 LED's = compressed/quiet (default). Apart from that, I should also mention that your own ears should tell you the difference (uncompressed, the default mode, is less loud). Well, I say less loud, but what in fact it does is minimise or ballance the difference between Dolby Digital or DTS's encoded loud and quiet sounds. Ballancing them so say at night for example, when peeps are sleeping nearby, you will hear the 'quiets' and the 'louds' without the major jumps between the two.
    I would like to add, the difference that dynamic mode does is very much less than my old Inspire 5500 decoder/speaker set-up. When I pressed it on that system, the sound cut-out for one second and then came back in in the uncompressed state. The difference was MASSIVE. It's still fairly noticeable on DDTS-100 though.
    Unless it's late and you don't want to wake other people, I suggest you get into the habit of pressing this each time you turn the decoder on. This way you will get the full whack of Dolby Digital/DTS's encoding - with the big booms and subtle background sounds heard as they were intended to be heard. Also check your DVD player's settings for a similar mode, I found that on mine the default was compressed, like the DDTS-100 is, after a year of owning this player, I suddenly found this setting, changed it.... and bejeezus it is better. :smileytongue:

  • Question about the DDTS-100

    Hey all,
    (I'm not sure if someone asked this already, but I'm gonna ask anyway :smileyvery-happy: .)
    I'm not sure if I read the features right, but does the DDTS-100 allow you to
    be able to listen to more than one input at once, say I'd be able to play music from a
    CD Changer and play a game of Half-life 2 and hear both of them.
    Thanks in advance,
    Brandon

    Stuffy,
    The DDTS-100 will only play from one source at a time. This is much in the same way that a component receiver works.

    You have two basic options. One is to use a commercial screen recording app with access to system audio built into the app and the other is to add a system extension like SoundFlower that allows the QT X screen recorder to access/record the system audio. I use the former so I am not that familiar with SoundFlower but there should be several posts to this forum covering this topic.

  • My mac won't play dvd's and the region won't reset. This has never happened before and I've never had to change the region

    my mac won't play dvd's and the region won't allow me to set it. nVer had to touch this before. Has come out of the blue

    Perhaps the lens is dirty.  Try cleaning it with a DVD lens cleaning disk, shoot some compressed air into the slot or use a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) wrapped around a business card and insert it gently into the slot.

  • Connecting creative inspire 6600 to the ddts-100 decoder

    ok so i was sedused by the idea of getting a ddts-100 to my inspire 6600 speakers,but the fact is i need to know some information:
    the first thing is:will i be able to connect my speakers to the decoder and then to the soundcard?
    my speakers have only RCA jacks for the satellites to connect them to the amp,and the amp have 3 assebled wires,3.5mm ones...my soundcard have also 3 connectors for the speakers,no digital output or optical,..only 3 connectors for the 3.5mm...so will i be able to connect it and then will it be able to reproduce sound like it was doing before?
    2-the decoder says it can decode dolby digital ex,dts es,i don't know if i am saying this right but,sometimes we say decoding in 24bits/96khz .....its the dvd quality right? then will the decoder DECODE the dvd source in 24bits/96khz or is it the job of the soundcard?
    3-will the decoder improve the listening experience in quality or surround?in case of dvd playing i know it would,but in case of listening to music?

    shin8,
    Are you getting proper output if you use the "TEST" button on the remote control?

  • DVD-Audio and "can not detect sound blaster card" with Audigy2 Va

    I recently purchased an "Audigy2 Value" card from an eBay user, because I recently purchased some DVD-Audio discs. I downloaded the Audigy2 drivers from the website, and the Creative MediaSource player. 5. Surround sound worked fine for me, though sometimes the driver would reset to the default 2/2. sound and I would have to re-select 5. sound, which was annoying.
    Then I was completely unable to get the MediaSource player to recognise my DVD-Audio discs, and the EAX functionality of the player would never work. The EAX logo never appeared in the player. When I tried installing the MediaSource player from an install disc, I got the message "can not detect sound blaster card". Then I discovered the world of EEPROM problems.
    I followed advice from some other threads, including using ScanPCI to get information on the card, which yielded the following result.
    When installed on my machine (Asus A7A266 motherboard) the ScanPCI reads:

    (Just a note: above you can clearly see that it does not say I have an Audigy, it thinks it is a SBLi've. Is this normal? The card IS an Audigy 2, it says so on the card.)
    So, I put the card back on my own PC, thinking this has fixed my EEPROM, but I get the same as before. Subsystem ID 0002h. And of course the install software will not detect the card.
    I realise that I could go back to using the web drivers, but this still leaves me with MediaSource not recognising the card and not enabling DVD-Audio or EAX, which is why I bought the card in the first place!
    I have heard that the VIA chipset is possibly to blame for the EEPROM problems on the Audigy cards, and certainly it seems like it is not permanent, since it gave different information on the other PC. So now I am seriously considering getting a new motherboard.
    Do other motherboards cause this same problem? I don't want to buy another board and get the same trouble. All I want is to be able to install my MediaSource and have it recognise my card so I can listen to my DVD-Audio discs.
    Cheers,
    Russ.

    Figured out my problem. Installing the drivers from the web to begin with was a bad idea. They just did not work properly with the card.
    The "card not found" problem has gone as well, after installing it in another PC. I am also using the proper install disc now, as the other one I was using turned out to not be for the Audigy 2 value after all, but was an Audigy 2 install disc. That easily explains the "Card not found" error. The differing results from the ScanPCI program are still bizarre, though.
    Thanks to all of the people on the forum who posted information in other threads to help me deal with this issue. For now I am sticking with the original drivers from the disc and I am not upgrading.

  • XBOX HD DVD drive and the Mac mini?

    I hooked up the HD Dvd drive and it is recognized in both the Apple side and windows boot camp. I've tried both powerdvd ultra and windvd8 on the windows side to get the HD disc's to play but it says something about the video card not being supported when I try powerdvd, and when I try windvd it acts like it wants to play but does nothing at all. Has anyone got the xbox HD dvd drive to work with the mini and if so how?
    oh...I have the mac mini Intel 1.66 duo upgraded to 2gb of ram.
    Thanks in advance

    The Mac mini video chip (the Intel GMA 950) apparently does not support HDCP. There is a free tool from CyberLink (the authors of PowerDVD) to show if your computer is good enough to play HD DVD or Blu-Ray see http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/support/bdhd_support/diagnosis.jsp
    Having run this myself, I can confirm it reports that the Mac mini video chip does not support HDCP. In theory you might be able to use VGA instead of DVI and still play HD DVD disk.
    The above however applies only if you are running Windows on your Mac. While it is possible to plug an XBox 360 HD DVD drive in to a Mac running Mac OS X, because Apple are still prevaricating over whether they will support HD DVD, or Blu-Ray or neither they have not as yet released any software to play such disks even if you can plug a drive in.
    I have seen reports that you can use the XBox drive on a Mac to play ordinary DVDs but it is not possible (yet) to do anything more than that.
    Right now, not a single Mac model supports HDCP (nor do the Apple Cinema displays). There is a small possibility that Apple might be able to release a firmware upgrade at some point to address this.
    *Really Apple, you are falling further and further behind. Not only do you not do HDCP, not only do you not do HD DVD or Blu-Ray, but QuickTime cannot do a decent job of subtitles, or surround sound, or multiple audio tracks. And all this from a company (Apple) supposedly synonymous with multimedia.*
    Yes, the TV/Movie studios are idiots, yes DRM is a stupid idea, but come on Apple get a move on.

  • K8N Neo Dvd Audio and USB not working

    I've been thru all the messages and found a few with the same problems I'm having but none of solutions worked. The first one
    when I play a dvd on mt Plextor PX-712A. The video works fine, but the is no audio. I tried with the digit audio option turned

    I also went thru that message area about the USB problem. Something about pin 10 on the connector, that
    should not have a wire connected to it, well mind did't have any thing connected to it. Since I don't have

  • Captivate 7 is not capturing system audio, and the software has a broken link

    The Problem:
    Captivate 7 is not capturing system audio. When I start a screen recording, the line with "System Audio" and its checkbox are eternally grayed out. Next to the grayed out words is a link that says, "Why is this disabled?"
    The lnik goes to:  http://www.adobe.com/go/cpaudio
    Which is not a valid link, so Adobe's site redirects me to blogs.adoble.com/captivate which is ZERO help. Both browsing and the search bar bring no answers.
    The Device:
    Apple Macbook Air, Mid 2013, running OSX 10.9.2.
    What I've done already:
    Obvsiously I have set Captivate 7's preferences to capture system audio, and have set System Settings -> Security and Privacy -> Privacy -> Accessibility to allow Captivate to control my computer.
    I have also tried clicking the Mic icon, Selecting Source with the System Audio icon and that doesn't record system audio either. It acts like it is recording system audio, but when I stop recording I get a popup that says, "Cannot record system audio. Ensure that you are playing audio on your computer [Okay]"

    It's a wierd one.
    One thing to try, and this fixes a lot of things, trash your preferences.

  • DVD Audio and Subtitle script Please HELP

    Subtitle Audio Scripts Please Help
    Posted: Sep 3, 2006 8:04 PM
    I need to write a script that does the following:
    1st I have the end user choose if they want subtitles on or off and then both the buttons will default for the user to chose a language choice. So I need a script that will play just audio streams and a script that will play audio with the same language subtitle. Also if the user just pushes the language button I need the script it to default to play just that language...
    Here is what I have scripted already please tell me where my mistake is:
    Button Command
    Subtitles
    On mov GPRM 0,0
    Jump Special Features: English
    Off mov GPRM 0,1
    Jump Special Features: English

    All my language scripts will be similar just with different audio and sub streams.
    Help Please-
    Ryan-

    Hi There
    I think your error is in the first line of your script.
    You're using GPRM 0 to set your subtitle condition and when you press enter on your english button your first line says
    1. mov GPRM0,2
    I'm assuming you want to use this first comand to set your languange condition so you should use GPRM 1 (or more) - at this stage all you're doing is removing the subtitle condition set by your earlier script.
    Good luck
    Cheers
