| Post subject: | DTS .wavs burned to CD now only play as stereo, not DTS?? |
Hi, I have been burning DTS CDs using Imgburn without a problem until recently, and now all the discs I burn only play as stereo on my SONY BDP-S370 Blu-Ray Disc/DVD Player, even though they definitely come from DTS 6-channel audio .wav files, as verified by the MediaInfo program, and these files seem no different than other DTS .wav files I have successfully burned to CD (and those discs still play as DTS through my player and system).. playing these files in my computer only produces white noise (which is what I would expect).. so why do they now only play as stereo in my SONY player, not DTS, when I burn them? Any help would be appreciated! |

IT sounds like the problem is your player, not the discs. Somehow your player got set to mixdown to stereo? The only other explanation would be if the DTS contained only stereo info, instead of 5.1. You can use foobar2000 and a dts plugin to playback dts cds (or at least that there ARE six channels) on your pc. |

I just don't understand why my player is still able to play DTS discs I burned earlier, just not anymore.. |

Oh? I didn't catch that detail. That is confusing. discs you burned earlier currently play in 5.1, but discs you burned more recently currently play in stereo (even though you "know" they have 5.1 on them)? I'd still recommend a way to test on another "player", like foobar2000 with the dts plugin on your pc. Oh, you could also use audiomuxer to extract the audio and verify that it is in fact 5.1. If you extract to mono files then even if you don't have 5.1 playback you could listen to each channel to verify there's audio in there. There's a link to audiomuxer in the yellow box at the top left of every page on this forum. |

This is what Media Info says about the first file (the other 13 files are the same, just different lengths and file sizes): General Complete name : F:\File 1.wav Format : Wave File size : 55.0 MiB Duration : 5mn 26s Overall bit rate mode : Constant Overall bit rate : 1 411 Kbps Audio Format : DTS Format/Info : Digital Theater Systems Mode : 14 Format settings, Endianness : Little Codec ID : 1 Duration : 5mn 26s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 1 411.2 Kbps Channel(s) : 6 channels Channel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE Sampling rate : 44.1 KHz Bit depth : 24 bits Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 55.0 MiB (100%) Here are the cue and ImgBurn log files for a burn session that produced a regular stereo audio CD from .wav files with a 6-channel DTS stream. Any idea why ImgBurn is now converting DTS.wav files to regular .cda CD audio files (even though it only recently started to do this, and I have lots of perfectly good DTS CDs produced the same way that play in beautiful 6-channel surround)? Do I all of a sudden need a special plugin for burning 6-channel DTS .wav files?

Any help with this would be appreciated! |

And to add even more mystery to this, I tried re-burning a DTS .wav file I had already successfully burned to CD - and which played in 6-channel surround - and now it only plays in stereo (even though the first disc still plays as DTS).. so it's not (or not just) a file corruption issue, something has changed in the way ImgBurn is burning these files to CD, I just wish I could figure out what it was. |

I tried using another program to burn the DTS files in question, PowerISO, and the disc plays fine, so there must be some problem with my ImgBurn setup which results in DTS files being converted to regular audio CD files.. will uninstall, reboot and reinstall and see if that fixes the problem. |
