Grim Reaper · 03-11-2008, 09:28 PM

un4gvn94538 · 03-11-2008, 09:33 PM

i figured that cause of where you posted this. thats why i said sacd is via hdmi only.

un4gvn94538 · 03-11-2008, 09:47 PM

all i can say is if other cds work, dvd movies work with dts then maybe the format your using isnt compatable. not sure if your using a dvd audio or a cd with dts or sacd

Grim Reaper · 03-11-2008, 09:51 PM

now i know why. its because they were done in .wav format.

jkwest · 03-11-2008, 09:54 PM

LOL!!!

Its not an SACD...

bhampton · 03-11-2008, 09:53 PM

Grim,

To be clear,.. the disc is a CDR that says Nevermind with a shapie right?

Maybe the disc itself is the problem. It should play back on any DVD player with DTS support so you may try another player.

What does the PS3 identify it as? In the menu (xmb) you should see some description of what the PS3 reads it as.

To play DTS Audio CD's on PS3:

SETTINGS

MUSIC SETTING

Audio CD Output Frequency: 44/1/88.2/176.4 kHZ

SOUND SETTINGS

Audio Output Settings

select (HDMI or Digital Out(Optical) ) which ever one you have.

Manual

Make sure DTS is Checked

Un-Check in this order

Uncheck Linear PCM 2 Ch. 176.4 Khz
Uncheck Linear PCM 2 Ch. 88.2 Khz

Save & Exit

Note: the DTS Audo CD's do not like 88.2 Khz / 176.4 Khz, you will get static

When I play SACD I put it back to 88.2 and 176.4 kHZ over HDMI

Please Note The PS3 40G can Play DTS audio CD but not SACD

You should check out the Sting and Police DTS audio CD's. They have great surrounds etc.
