    App: Blu-ray Player ver 2.0.34.70

    Updated 2017-11-03

    TL;DR Problem: No audio output for DTS-MA on Blu-ray media on original XBox One model

    Howdy Team XBox,

    I own all 3 models of the XBox One console: the original vanilla, the S, and the X. The new BluRay player updates that came in after the November releases of the X work as advertised for my S and X. However, the DTS-MA audio option on BluRays is now flawed
    on the vanilla XBox One.

    There is either no audio output at all (mute) or there might be a clicking sound. Secondary audio options on the BluRay, typically stereo audio Commentary tracks, work fine. Something is up with the DTS handshake.

    I have attempted to troubleshoot this by using both HDMI and TOSLINK audio cables for audio output to my display's default speakers, to a surround sound system directly, etc--using every Audio Output option/bitstream available in settings. No luck and no
    dice for the DTS-MA audio tracks that are commonly the primary (or only) English audio selection for our cinema.

    I hope this is a fix y'all can get in the next update. Good luck!

    :)

    Serious Blu-ray Player App Issues

    There are two huge issues with the Blu-ray Player app:

    1. lip-sync issues when the console is set to 24Hz Blu-ray Video Playback.
    2. No HDMI audio pass-through to receiver.
    The lip-sync issue is quite bad. If I disable the "24Hz Video Playback" in the console System Settings, lip-sync is fine. My HDTV supports 24Hz video, and I expect the Xbox One to properly support this. I have a Pioneer VSX-32 which supports 24Hz HDMI,
    and decodes all HD audio codecs (DTS-MA, Dolby TrueHD, etc.) In order for the Blu-ray player app to be of any use for me, it must have these two issues fixed.

    DTS-HD Master Audio

    Quick question guys, playing a bluray on the xbox one doesn't flag up DTS-HD MA on my av receiver, I have audio set to DTS 5.1 in the settings app, my dedicated bluray player has no such problems with the sound formats?

    Xbox Series X will not output DTS Digital Surround from DVD's

    Hawaii 5-0 season one accidentally used it.

    But no one uses it because Dolby digital is more efficient for lossy audio, and vanilla DTS is already in Master audio. If you plug in via optical and have the player set correctly you'll get vanilla DTS.

    you should disable the atmos app, because that's doing the transcoding

    Bitstream DTS reported as 5.1 not 7.1

    Maybe it's the Blu Ray only providing DTS in 5.1 Are the provided audio formats listed on the Blu Ray?

    Xbox Series X will not output DTS Digital Surround from DVD's

    DTS Master Audio is used on virtually every Blu-ray disc, and was relatively common on DVD especially on titles from universal. It's contained in every DTS Master audio file, as the first has "layers" of resolution for compatibility. The only truly rare form is DTS HD, which was in a handful of early BD before the Master encoder was ready.

    The system is transcoding everything to Dolby Digital. When i you set it to that it will take anything you toss at it and make it vanilla DD

    General/Volume and audio output/additional options, check "allow passthrough"

    Bitstream setting-Why forced to choose DTS or Dolby?!

    I love high-end audio. I got the Xbox One after hearing it could play MKV's. Well needless to say it wouldn't play over 90% of them because they have DTS and the Xbox one doesn't work with them. So I would say Microsoft should stop saying they can play MKV's
    because the majority of them it can't. Luckily my little $75 roku can. Next I was ok I can still play blu-rays right? Nope. The xbox can't output DTS-MA and only outputs PCM. It sounds no-where near as good as my $20 blu-ray player. So sadly I bought this
    as a media player but really it can only play games. I also question the audio quality of the games. I almost wish I could of bought a PS4 especially if the audio works correctly on it. I am beyond dissapointed!

    Differences between HDMI DTS and Uncompressed 5.1 Audio Options XB1

    In theory PCM uncompressed can give you a pure audio without the need to compress the audio to a core dolby digital or DTS sound codec. DTS is a form of audio compress audio codec. I don't believe the any game has been encoded with a lossless audio. The
    xbox is doing all the audio decoding and you can choose what it outputs.

    For Games: DTS or uncompressed should be the same audio with little to no difference.

    I have tested both and I actually prefer the DTS output due to it being slightly louder.

    If game developers start to make games with lossless sound like on most blu-ray disk then switching to the lossless setting would be the way to go.

    For Blu-ray: uncompressed is the way to go, most blu-ray movies are encoded with either DTS HD-master or Dolby TrueHD. The xbox is doing all the decoding on the system chip and is out putting as a PCM to a capable receiver.

    Now there are some problems with this and I hope microsoft addresses this in a future upgrade.
