14-May-01

DTSÆ Entertainment, a leader in multichannel digital audio announced that at the Audio Engineering Society (AES) conference in Amsterdam, it is demonstrating its new system for 5.1-channel sound at 96 kHz/24-bit for DVD-Video.Previously, 96 kHz/24-bit has been available on DVD-Video in only two channels, and with video limitations. Now DTS exclusively can deliver 5.1 channels in 96 kHz/24-bit, along with full-motion video, for feature film soundtracks and music programs on DVD-Video. This exclusive technology can also be used on DVD-Audio discs where a DTS 96 kHz/24-bit track can be placed in the video zone, so that people without DVD-Audio players can enjoy multichannel 96 kHz/24-bit quality using their DVD-Video players. The DTS 96 kHz/24-bit soundtrack is fully backward compatible with all existing DTS decoders, which will deliver up to 48 kHz/24-bit. Advanced 96 kHz/24-bit DTS decoders for consumers will be available later this year from major consumer electronics manufacturers.DTS is an international digital technology company specializing in multichannel audio.
