Hey guys, I never stumbled upon such a thing. I knew that back in the days the dts soundtrack was delivered through Cds, but I never saw some of them. it seems that here: http://www.ebay.de/itm/131254828616?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT someone is selling these discs for TGATD. Coincidence, I watched this movie a few days ago (after some posting on the movie itself here in the Forum) and I wondered if there is a dts master. My question is, what kind of equipment would someone need to transfer the dts soundtrack of these discs to harddisc, is that even possible? The standalone DVD has DD only...

Thanx for the info, it seems like an interesting subject, though theres no real solution in sight to use these discs. Anyone here in the forum using or having a pro dts-decoder? if I read it right, even then it would be hard to get the soundtrack playing without the movie itself. One could think that a simple program could "convert" these files, stored on these Discs to consumerfriendly dts. IIRC dts back then was announced as the original umcompressed soundtrack. But since they used CDs, the data is much less than todays dts-hd. Where does all these dts-hd ma masters come from (especially from old movies) ?

Not only those CDs are plain simple CD-ROMs and thus readable with every regular CD-drive, there has been a Winamp plugin for years in order to decode them to PCM. admin wrote: What one wants is this plugin here. Not only does it work with the great foobar player, but it also produces 5.1 "out of the box" by deriving the LFE "channel" from the surrounds for the sake of home cinema compatibility. Allegedly, this plugin in opposite to the former Winamp plugin also supports the encrypted variant of APT-X100, but I haven't had the chance to test that myself - yet.
