I have a few other titles from China with the same type of DTS packaging and I could not get them to decode at all. Can't even get white noise.
No Foobar here, sorry. I do know that they play perfectly in stereo. I suspect that they are simply gold cd's with a lot of mumbo jumbo all over the package.Have you tried to rip it into a wave file and play the file with VLC old version or Foobar with the dts decoder? With these two i've been able to open pratically everything DTS.
I've never heard of 48k 24-bit DTS CDs. Does anybody know anything about this format?
I can't find information elsewhere on the internet. Is this phony?

AAMOF, let me see if I can go look for this myself this weekend...
yeah.. the store is fine but the disc is not legit..I'll set them straight...
At the very least, they need to stop buying these.
Thanks for all the confirmation guys. I inquired with the eBay seller, and yes, he was very nice and as informative as possible.
I gave him all the facts I could as to why I am dubious about the title. He didn't reply to any of that, except to say if I wasn't 100% satisfied he'd give a full refund.
When I asked him about how the disc was procured he replied: "...am not sure how we got it downstairs. I list what they send up to me. Probably came in a buy we did from a seller as we buy all types of media 7 days a week. I really have no other info on the piece."

Geez, Tiger. I'm just thinking of their interest. They can do as they please. If, however, they bought a DTS title hoping to flip it to surround nuts, and meanwhile word gets around to said surround nuts that these titles aren't worth it, they will end up eating these.I don't think your approach is feasible or necessary....especially since the return policy is in effect....they can't be expected to "police" every disc to make sure it's legit...fakes are sold everywhere...amazon...discogs...ebay...and most originate outside the US because there is no "real" enforcement in place to prevent these fakes....that's why I don't buy from sellers in Russia...they do it openly because they know they can..

Well, I definitely don't get where you're coming from or your choice of words. It seems very reasonable, to me, to inquire of a vendor as to the authenticity of a product, and, if it seems shady, to give them a head's up. I just don't understand why you need to comment on my "approach."Whoa Baggs...I'm not in attack mode...this is the internet and since you can't see my facial expressions the words don't convey my intentions....I'm just echoing the sentiments expressed by atrocity....it's just something that a "fringe" group like us would recognize(the DTS mode)..not some shop owner whose intentions are to help his customers by buying their discs ....it's too much to expect from them...that's what I'm saying...in the practical everyday world of commerce what you expect is just a little unrealistic...that's all and I'm saying

Well, I don't think the approach of your comment was feasible or necessary. Fair?I'm commenting on "your approach" because this is a forum and that's what we do...simple as that...I think from what you posted that the merchant isn't some shady operator...and I honestly don't know how a shop owner is supposed to make the distinction with every disc he takes in on a trade or purchase from a customer on which one's are fake and which one's are legit...I struggle with that myself and I know what to look for....and if he ends up "eating" the titles...that's his problem..
