Jeff Bellune Sep 30, 2009 9:00 AM (in response to halfpint1210)For standard DVD, DTS cannot legally be the only audio stream on the disc. There has to be at least one PCM or AC3 stream as well. Maybe the same is true for Blu-ray?

JSS1138 Sep 30, 2009 1:05 PM (in response to Jeff Bellune)Is it possible Encore needs .cpt files rather than .dts?

halfpint1210 Sep 30, 2009 2:06 PM (in response to Jeff Bellune)Well, I tried to add a Dolby Digital track to make sure that it was compliant. That did not work as well. Thanks for the replies though.

I thought that as well, but everything that I have read indicates, that it has to have the .dts extension.

halfpint1210 Oct 1, 2009 10:50 AM (in response to Bill Hunt)Thanks for all who replied to my thread. I did read both of those threads, but I skimmed through them. I will try to make the .dts into a .cpt. Thanks again for all of your help. I will join those threads if I still run into problems.

Bill Hunt Oct 2, 2009 8:51 AM (in response to halfpint1210)Halfpint,
I've used DTS (based mostly on the comments of Neil Wilkes in those, and other threads) with no issues.
I Export the Audio from PrPro as WMA with all six streams included. The WMA's are brought into Audition for any additional editing, and then Exported from Audition as six discrete PCM/WAV files. In the SurCode encoder, I encode these to one .CPT file and Import_As_Asset into Encore. This file is then placed on the Timeline as an extra Audio Track, which is accessible via a Menu. Most set-top players will also access this extra Audio Track via the Audio button, though not all. I also usually add some instructions on either that Audio Selection Menu, or as a Title at the end of a Play First Clip, so the user knows that there ARE choices.
Good luck, and do pay particular attention to all of Neil Wilkes' comments. There are also some other threads on DTS, where both Jeff Bellune and Neil Wilkes answered particular questions of mine on the subject. Some of these probably go back to before even the previous forum changeover. I did not find any, and the few that I located (Google), had dead Adobe links. Sorry.
