Which DTSDecoderDLL.dll for 6.1 AND 7.1 decoding?

When I set MakeMKV to convert DTS-HD MA to FLAC it either doesn't work at all, or the pitch of the audio gets really really high, which version should I use to avoid these issues? I usually use the .8 version. :/

EDIT:
Try versions 1.1.0.0 or 1.1.0.7 are best.
Many of the devs/authors over at Doom9 use 1.1.0.0 without problems (with eac3to; doubt they use MakeMKV; but this is ArcSoft related)

MakeMKV doesn't use the DLL in the same way as eac3to. The latter just uses the decoder, whereas MakeMKV uses the DLL as an algorithm reference (which is why it also works under OS X and Linux).

My experience with MakeMKV and version 1.1.0.0 is that it doesn't work at all.

I personally use 1.1.0.8 from TMT5 (works fine even for 6.1 and 7.1 "strange setup"). Never had marcus' pitch issue.

All of these DLLs use the exact same DTS decoder core (that's what makeMKV uses). All changes are only in Chinese code around dts decoder, and MakeMKV doesn't use it. If DLL is recognized by MakeMKV then it should work equally fine.
