Talk:NMT:DTS
I'm basically at the same spot you are. I've been able to get the 110 fw on the 100, but cannot use HDMI. I've switched to component, so everything basically works like normal.
I've tried comparing the firmware between 100 and 110 to see if I can find where it would enable me to select analog for DTS, but no luck thus far.

Yeah.. I'm reasonably sure it isn't anything in the binaries mono and gaya, they differ only by 4 bytes or something equally small. It is by far likely to be in libsample, or other libraries in /usr/lib/. However I did notice the kernel module em86xx.so is tried to the ucode and needs to match. More importantly, I've not been able to successfully unload it and load again. So most likely the ucodes and kernel modules need to be moved, then figure out what part of gaya detects if the option should be enabled.
But really we should ignore gaya, get the "mono" arguments it uses to play DTS->2ch, and work with that until it works. But there is a high chance those ucodes will just not work right with HDMI-1.1. I also doubt there will be a model with HDMI1.1 *and* DTS decoding.
Perhaps just buy a B-110, put it in the A-100 case :)
I'm more interested in if the CSS_ucode could be loaded.

Yeah, unfortunately I don't have too much time to tinker with it. Especially since it wouldn't give me too much advantage, since everything I'd like to have is working via component. Perhaps in the next month or two I'll get a little more time to play around, but at this point there are just too many other things going on.

Hi guys. I am not so kken on coding and linux as you but have tried few things. I could make the Gaya interface allow option PCM for DTS but unfortunately save does not work - cannot complete operation. This makes sense to me now after I read more. Do you believe there will be any chance to add DTS support to A100 some day? I bought it just before they released A110 and does not make sense to chnage it... Other thing I did is change manually audio_dts=raw to audio_dts=pcm in /tmp/settings. The effect is that when I played DTS mkv the video stuttered so this had some effect - unfortunately no sound output:( Probably some module or else is missing... Let me know if I can help with something. Unfortunately I am using HDMI to connect to my TV but just in case - can you let me know how to make an A-110 firmware be A-100 firmware/ Thanks in advance.
