About
the
DTS
multi-channel
audio
format
The
DTS
multi-channel
audio
format
is
available
on
CD,
LD
and
DVD
software.
DTS
is
a
strictly
|
digital
format
and
can
not
be
decoded
inside
most
CD,
LD
or
DVD
players.
For
this
reason,
if
you
;
attempt
to
listen
to
DTS
encoded
software
through
the
analog
output
of
your
new
CD,
LD
or
DVD
player,
you
will
experience
digital
noise
in
most
cases.
This
noise
can
be
quite
loud
if
the
analog
output
is
connected
directly
to
a
high
power
amplification
system.
Proper
measures
for
playing
the
digital
output
as
described
below
should
be
taken
to
avoid
this
situation.
To
enjoy

playback,
an
external

Digital

decoder
system
or
an
amplifier
with
a
built-in
DTS
Digital

decoder
must
be
connected
to
the
digital
output
(S/P

or

of
a
