On DTS discs, the analog are Analog L/R which I heard (not sure) you can encode it in Dolby Pro Logic, (I guess you can because you can encode 2 tracks to be 3D headphone surround eventually, so I believe it's possible now. On Dolby 5.1 movies, the left analog is analog mono, the right analog is AC3 RF, an analog form of Dolby 5.1 that has to get demodulated, and the digital track is either ProLogic or LPCM 2.0 (don't know the bit rate/hertz rate quality). If I understand Laser Disc right, there is a digital audio and an analog track. In other words, it doesn't sound 3D.Īnyone know of a DTS 5.1-> Headphone converter that works with a stand-alone Laser Disc-or-higher player that accurately preserves the 3D sound stage? Instead of silence, I get a 2 track stereo soundtrack that is weaker than the standard LPCM 2.0 Mix. The Dolby mix it does okay, but the DTS is only a slight improvement over the Turtle Beach. It says it translates Dolby and DTS into headphone mixes. The point is it doesn't translate native DTS content into a headphone surround mix. And 2 it converts external Dolby to an Internal DTS for it to work with DTS X:headphones. ONE is you must set the Xbox One to Dolby. I am looking for something similar to a Turtle Beach X41 or X42, except does it for DTS movies.įirst Turtle Beach's DTS stuff only describes the DTS:X Headphone conversion process.

There is only one catch: Since the Turtle Beach is just a Dolby 5.1-> Dolby Headphone converter, a DTS movie is silent. (Probably a PS4 too, not sure, as I don't own one.)Īn interesting side effect is you can plug it in the Toslink (or Coaxial with a converter) port of a 'stand-alone' Laser Disc-or-higher player and output the sound in Dobly or DTS 5.1 through the Toslink/Coaxial. Turtle Beach X41s and X42s can take both Dolby and DTS and convert it to Dolby Headphone on a game machine like an Xbox 360, PS3, and Xbox One.

I tried the forum, but I have more answers given than recieved.
