DTS-HD

DTS-HD is a new high-definition audio format that complements the high-definition

ss"LURAYU$ISC ORY($$6$ DISCS ENCODED WITH$$43($ MODESC

video found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using a DTS core

delivered via HDMI connection

with high-resolution extensions. Even when only DTS 5.1 surround sound is desired

(or available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution

discs serves up DTS at twice the bit rate used on DVD-Video discs.

DTS-HD Master Audio

DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of the studio

surround sound. The Matrix version includes the surround back channel information

“matrixed” into the left and right (side) surround channels for compatibility with

5.1-channel systems.

DTS-ES Discrete

DTS-ES Discrete is another Extended Surround mode that adds a surround back

channel, but this information is encoded discretely on the disc and is not derived

from information contained in the surround channels.
