Blu-ray audio solution for wdtv
I had been researching and jumping on forums for a best way playing DTS/DTS-HD/DTS-MA audio with WD TV Live, because all the movies (HD MKV files) that I have that have DTS audio simply doesn't play the audio. It just sounds like a constant humming. Only DTS STEREO plays. I thought the WDTV Live was supposed to decode DTS and send it out stereo via optical port, but I tried with lots of files but all with the same result.
I was suggested to convert DTS into AC3 5.1 for better sound effects- in fact my AVR doesn’t support DTS 5.1. It works, and my receiver delivers 5.1 audio. Only one thing, it takes hours to convert a movie. Soon I learned a faster way- convert the movie from DVD/Blu-ray again with a new tool Pavtube ByteCopy. It has 2 features over the other tool I used, these are convert DTS/DTS-HD/DTS-MA to AC3, and keep original video. As it doesn’t transcode video stream, the conversion time is greatly reduced. Now it takes me 10 to 15 mins to convert a DVD to MKV with AC3 5.1 and 1 hour+ Blu-ray to MKV with AC3 5.1.
You may also find more audio solution for WD TV at this post. This is very helpful for those who play 5.1 sounds from an aged audio receiver, like me. There are other blu-ray audio solutions too.
Anyway, how do you guys play DTS HD audio?

Perfect app. It's for watching HBO when your not at home, why would you need airplay or appletv support, You have to be a HBO subscriber to use this service so you have HBO on your tv. I love the app it streams better than my sling player and has everything you need from HBO. Perfect. how to convert mkv to vob Seems there were more than just music. Security would be a major problem. Take a look at amazon recent cloud problem. It will be nice to have storage of the computer off.
