DTS-HD MA Open source decoder
Posted: Sat May 30, 2015 10:37 am
Since MakeMKV is partially open source. I figure this may be useful, if not to the developers at least to the users of the program.

The developer doesn't consider it stable yet, but he says that it is close.
https://github.com/foo86/dcadec/issues/30
The license seems to be LGPLv2.1 ( https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-2.1.html )
I tested it on a DTS-HD MA stream and it seems to work. Maybe this could be merged into MakeMKV and then we wouldn't need the DLL file?

I discovered it yesterday from another forum. I believe the project is new. The first commit was in March 2015.dcadec is a free DTS Coherent Acoustics decoder with support for HD extensions.
Supported features:
Decoding of standard DTS core streams with up to 5.1 channels
Decoding of DTS-ES streams with discrete back channel
Decoding of High Resolution streams with up to 7.1 channels and extended bitrate
Decoding of 96/24 core streams
Lossless decoding of Master Audio streams with up to 7.1 channels, 192 kHz
Downmixing to stereo and 5.1 using embedded coefficients
Features not implemented:
Decoding of DTS Express streams
Applying dynamic range compression and dialog normalization
