DTS X

[dazroch]

Hi. Bit confused about DTS X. Last night I put on the Force awakens blue ray , but the amp displayed DTS Neural X which I'm sure is not DTS X. Can I only get DTS X if it says it on the blue ray box......sorry if it sounds a bit confusing

you can only get proper DTS-X sound if it says so on the back of the bluray box where it lists the soundtrack options, the Force awakens bluray has only a standard DTS-MA 7.1 mix.

the latest Jason Bourne film and Despicable me 3 have true DTS-X soundtracks on the standard bluray.

Can you let us know what make and model number your a/v amp is as it helps us on the forum answer your questions better.

I doubt very much if you could even hear the difference tbh ?

Sound coming from 11 speakers instead of 7? You can very well tell the difference.

Jackie Chan - Kung Fu Yoga is DTS-X though in Mandarin. Yes I can hear much overall clarity

Thankyou for all the replies to earlier question about DTS X. Anyway I went to Tesco and bought Despicable Me 3 which is in DTS X and the sound is excellent. Even my kids said it was very clear. But why doesn't the amp display DTS X only DTS. It clearly shows it displaying DTS X on the box the amp came in.

Set your blu ray player to bitstream.

Been through all my Sony BDP menus but no bitstream setting .

 

[macdiddy]

please let us know the model number of your Sony bluray player.

Every single player has a bitstream setting, they may be named differently. Which Sony model is it? And which amp model?

I found this on another website:

If you have the UBP-X800 manual turn to page 22 under Audio Settings and under (BD Audio Mix Setting) you will see the note under the "light bulb" picture "To enjoy Bitstream (Dolby / DTS) signals, set (BD Audio Mix Setting) to (off) and (Digital Audio Output) to (auto). This should resolve the issue..

Hope that helps...

PS I just set up my X800 in the media room to these settings and can confirm I'm getting the full 7.2.4 watching Fantastic Beasts with an Atmos BD disc.
