dts question

I can't imagine attack of the clones in DTS since George Lucas's DD-THX format competes with DTS.

Apology excepted Brainwater, I'm still going to check out the haunting again :^)

Another great DTS is Diana Krall in Paris

I couldn't agree more with Glen on his "Diana Krall
in Paris". It is spellbinding.
Now off to Netflix, and find out what all this talk
about "Attact of the Clones" is about. Thanks guys.

For music dts is best. For movies I think it's a toss-up, though some would disagree. Clearly, though for music dts is best. Furthermore with dts Surcode you can take multi-channel music and encode it to dts, sending whichever channels you want to whichever destination you want.

We took 4-ch material recorded on analog tape in the 1970s-90s and put them on dts using four of its 6 channels.

I don't know what is going on but lately (in the past year) I have only seen one or two new movies with DTS encoding). Before this there were a lot more movies available with DTS. Does anybody know why this is? I agree that the sound in most cases is somewhat superior to DD.

Fifth Element is incredible in Superbit DTS

You don't see many movies in DTS anymore because there is no room on the disc for the mpeg2 format dts uses.
"DTS uses a higher bit rate (or less lossy compression) for potentially better sonic performance and increased channel separation."

Superbit still uses DTS by getting rid of extras on dvd
Columbia tristar, a Sony Company, came up with Superbit dvd format, DD 5.1 or DTS.
If you get a chance check out a superbit dvd, you won't be disappointed,
The Dvd is thicker build, better video and audio.

"On October 9, 2001, Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment released a new series of DVDs that promises the best in picture and sound quality, dubbed as the Superbit™ DVD series. These are DVDs that devote the entire data capacity to accommodate higher video bit rates and two surround sound options, the highly regarded DTS 5.1 and de facto standard Dolby Digital 5.1. By omitting bonus materials, running audio commentaries, other audio (Dolby Digital 2.0) and language (e.g., French or Spanish) soundtracks, extra data capacity is freed up for the higher video bit rate, DTS 5.1 and Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound tracks"

Dts old technology?
mpeg2 format is evolving to mpeg4,
toshibas got a new hd dvd recorder, available only in Japan right now, 300GB harddrive burns standard dvd to hd, mpeg4, upconverts to 1080p.
