I know this is not lossless 5.1 but it is 5.1 and to my ears DTS 5. In my case I don't need any video (I just placed the album cover art as the video - when my car is moving the Video is blanked, only sound continues when playing DVD-V).

In my case I just want to 'Insert disc and it plays').Īlso the 30 day trial is fairly feature complete, so you can author DVD-Vs with 5.1 DTS for playback as it burns directly to disc.

(You can also create Blu-ray Discs, import DTS and DD tracks from DVD and Blu-Ray, assuming it does not have DRM. You can add your own video in PAL or NTSC, add JPEG photos etc too. It has a time-line editor so tracks can be trimmed, for example to remove talking during concerts videos etc. The best feature of using PowerDirector 12 is that it accepts single 5.1 WAV files, it does not require 6 individual channel WAVs. This is limited to 5.1 at 48/24 1536kbps, the normal DVD DTS standard. I found this:Ĭyberlink PowerDirector 12 Ultra (and other PD 12 products) include 'DTS 5.1 Producer' which is licenced from DTS Inc. So went on a discovery mission to find easiest way to convert my many 5.1 music discs (already in 5.1 FLAC for my media player) to DTS-V discs. I recently discovered my Audi could play DTS 5.1 from DVD-V discs - see 'Cars with Factory Surround Systems' post:
