DTS Digital Surround
You can identify a DTS Digital Surround encoded source
by the following logo:
DTS Digital Surround is a 5.1-channel audio encoding
system from Digital Theater Systems Inc. for DVD
soundtracks. Like Dolby Digital, it provides six discrete
channels of audio, including an LFE channel.
DTS-ES
DTS-ES (the ES stands for Extended Sound) is a decoder
that is capable of decoding both DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 encoded sources. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1
gives ‘true’ 6.1 channel sound, with a completely
separate (discrete) surround back channel. DTS-ES
Matrix 6.1 has a surround back channel matrixed into the
surround left/right channels.
DTS Neo:6
DTS Neo:6 can generate 6.1 channel surround sound
from any matrixed stereo source, such as video, TV, etc.
It uses both the channel information already encoded
into the source, as well as its own processing to
determine channel localization.
DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 is an extension of the original DTS Digital
Surround which adds 96 kHz sampling rate (DTS Digital
Surround is already 24-bit).
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
PCM (also known as Linear PCM) is a digital audio
coding system that does not use compression to reduce
the amount of data needed to represent the analog audio.
PCM audio can be found on CDs and some DVDs.
