DTS-HD DTS-HD is a new high-definition audio format that complements the high-
definition video found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using
a DTS core 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.
Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD modes,
delivered via HDMI connection
DTS-HD Master Audio DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of the studio
master recording in up to 7.1 channels for an incredibly accurate performance.
Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD Master
Audio technology, delivered via HDMI connection
DTS-ES Matrix DTS Extended Surround adds a single surround back channel to DTS 5.1
digital 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 Matrix
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.
