I Know it's late, but... - tmternes - 2009-02-03
Guys, It is 2 am and I am getting tired. I must be because something is not making sense.
Here goes:
I have a VIDEO_TS Folder (Bad Boys II) playing, as we speak, through XBMC on my iMac.
I burned this disc myself and know without a doubt, that the ONLY Audio I gave it was 5.1 DTS. This is consistent with using the file on my Mac Mini where I have to go into DVD Player and change the Audio selection to DTS to get sound.
How the hell am I getting the movies sound out of my iMac? I have no external decoders attached, I simply have the Audio Out of the iMac going into a 2 Channel Speaker System (Roth MC4 & JM Lab Speakers).
Have I gone completely Mad?

You may have told it to only include DTS but I believe analog stereo and analog Dolby surround automatically go with the movie. I think the only sound options you have a selection over are digital modes.

I have also some DVD rips that are DTS only, and I get audio out of the ATV just fine. I specifically rip DVDs (I use DVDFab HD Decrypter) with only the minimum soundtracks and subtitles that I need, mainly just to save space. Also less overhead if streaming wirelessly (one sound track typically accounting for roughly 10% of the space).
