dbpoweramp "unable to insert sample grabber"

[kairukun]

I want to use dbpoweramp to encode dts 7.1 to what ever codecs like fdk-he-aac or m4a. The problem is when i convert 7.1 HD-DTS audio, it will say "unable to insert sample grabber" I already installed the following decoders and codecs DirectShow and ac3filter, still saying the same message, am I missing something?

I suspect it's a problem with DTS. What I would do is use MKVMerge GUI to strip the audio from the file. Get a program called foobar2000 and its DTS decoder add-on from their website. Drop your MKA file in there and convert it to WAV or whatever format, then you could probably use foobar2000, etc, to do what you need. I would also install the Apple Application Support (look up how to make qaac portable) and use iTunes' AAC encoder instead of the fdk one. Just my two cents.
