Why does Maestro NOT accept DTS files??

[jbenj01]

I though DVD Maestro was able to support DTS audio files? When trying to import, Maestro keeps giving me error.

Do I need some kind of plugin or .. something?? Please advise. Thanks.

You must have some sort of error in the DTS file since I have imported lots of DTS files to Maestro and never had an error.

Maybe it is a different version of Maestro that I use what version do you use?

[jbenj01]

I have v2.9. Build 2915a - 1234. And you?

The same...so it has to something wrong with the DTS files...how did you make them?

[jbenj01]

I demuxed it using DVD2AVI v1.76. What's odd is that I demuxed the DTS file using stream processing in DVD Decrypter and Maestro accepted it.. ??

Actually, I'm still stuck.. When trying to 'Create Sync Audio', Maestro keeps giving me this error: Audio Type No Supported For Sync Audio.

Aren't I supposed to select the original DTS track to 'sync audio'??

I looked in the manual and it clearly says that it is not possible to create a sync audio track from DTS or PCM since they do not contain any time references in the stream like AC3 does.

I qute the manual:
"Note: AC-3 (Dolby Digital™) is the only audio format in the DVD realm that allows timestamping. MPEG-1, layer 2, PCM and DTS™ audio formats cannot embed timecode into their streams. Therefore, the following section on timestamping audio only refers to Dolby Digital (AC-3) audio streams."
