DTS on your Personal Computer
As with a home theater setup, the best way to experience DTS on the PC is via a multi-channel speaker system: The choice is whether to decode DTS inside or outside your PC. And in order to experience 5.1-channel DTS software-based decoding on a PC, you must own a multi-channel soundcard. Currently, it is difficult to use a software solution on a laptop PC. In this case, connect the DTS-encoded bit stream from the laptop’s Digital Output to an external hardware-based decoder.)
DTS DVD motion picture soundtracks and multi-channel music can be played back from a PC in one of two ways:
1. Using a Hardware-based configuration, in which the DTS soundtrack/music is decoded on a multi-channel soundcard within the PC, and a digital output connected to an A/V receiver or computer speaker system equipped with an internal decoder.
2. Using Software-based configuration, in which the DTS soundtrack/music is output via a software program or application running on the PC and connected to the analog inputs of a multi-channel or two-channel speaker system.
