[edit] Redirect from Digital Theater System
Would it be appropriate to place a redirect to here from the title "Digital Theater System"? --Reverend Loki 20:53, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
- That would be a good idea. Qutezuce 03:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Non-NPOV or source needed
The following sentance in the DTS Variants section under "DTS-HD Master Audio" does not have a neutral point of view or is lacking a verifiable source:
"Although technically superior over its Dolby counterpart, DTS-HD Master Audio is selected only as an optional surround sound format for Blu-ray and HD-DVD."
I suggest it be changed to say:
"DTS-HD Master Audio is selected as an optional surround sound format for Blu-ray and HD-DVD."

[edit] DTS CD
I have a couple of music CDs that have DTS audio, perhaps this could be elaborated on by someone who knows more about this format, and the releases, etc. Whitesanjuro 16:08, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
- I sold these for a while in a high-end a/v store when they first came out. 5.1 channel and great sound. DTS cd's dont seem to have fared well in the format wars since superior audio-only formats have come out since. Consequently there are fewer releases available than audiophiles had once hoped and which a/v salespeople like me promised would materialize.Thinkenstein 09:44, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] AC-3 or AC3?
Since AC-3 and AC3 is absolutely the same thing, I can't see a reason why not to go with "AC3" in this article since it's IMO used much more frequently. Is there any reason why not to do so? Is AC-3 any more correct or something?
- The Dolby Digital article always refers to it as AC-3 so I think that's the correct way to refer to it. Thunderhawk89 15:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Selling Cinema and Digital Images
DTS has announced that it's selling it's cinema and digital images divisions. (Digital Images was formerly known as Lowry Digital). 201.141.65.186Anonymouse.
[edit] Separate variant articles
Wouldn't it be more interesting to have separate articles for each codec? And just a basic comparison here in this article perhaps? Or a codec listing... Thunderhawk89 15:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] DTS-HD Variants
I believe DTS-HD and DTS-HDMA aren't the same. DTS-HD Master Audio is capable of delivering audio that is a bit-for-bit identical to the studio master. DTS-HD Master Audio delivers audio at super high variable bit rates -24.5 mega-bits per second (Mbps) on Blu-ray discs and 18.0 Mbps on HD-DVD - that are significantly higher than standard DVDs . This bit stream is so "fast" and the transfer rate is so "high" that it can deliver the Holy Grail of audio: 7.1 audio channels at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depths that are identical to the original. With DTS-HD Master Audio, you will be able to experience movies and music, exactly as the artist intended: clear, pure, and uncompromised.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio can deliver up to 7.1 channels of sound that is virtually indistinguishable from the original. DTS-HD High Resolution Audio delivers audio at high constant bit rates superior to standard DVDs---6.0 Mbps on Blu-ray discs and 3.0 Mbps on HD-DVD to produce outstanding sound quality. It is capable of delivering up to 7.1 channels at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depth resolution. It allows content creators to deliver rich, high definition audio on movies where disc space may not allow for DTS-HD Master Audio. From the original DTS website.
