I can't seem to play DTS music, but movies with DTS play without any issues.
I read somewhere in the wiki that DTS-WAV was never outputed as DTS on the original XBOX, but i hardly think this is related, right?
I'm using the SPDIF output to my receiver.

I have seen this as well. I have some DTS-WAV which I can stream to my receiver using a Roku SoundBridge - receiver says it's DTS and plays it well. Same files through XBMC on AppleTV don't work for me - just noise. It is as though there is some scaling or other modification taking place. Volume of XMBC output is set to max (= 0.0dB) which I thought might eliminate the problem - but no.
As a relative noob in XBMC and AppleTV land, I figure I maybe just need to read some more regarding the SPDIF support.

Im rather new to the hole SACD/Audio codecs in general thing, so im goning to ask a dumb question (maybe):
If i convert these files to multichannel FLAC would this change anything?

Hi there.
Meanwhile i found out that this does not seem to be a xbmc related problem here.
There is something wrong with the sample rate.
everything thet is 48kHz seems to work. But the DTS-Wav is used was 44100 and that created the noise.
Not sure how to solve this, maybe someone has a hint.

Just a note. This (DTS-Audio CD's) does not work on the Windows build either so the issue lies somewhere in the main code.
EDIT: Forgot to mention these same files play perfectly with XBMC for XBOX

Just found the solution on another thread. Play these files with DVD Player instead of the default player.
