Calling JRiver Experts please

I asked this question at the official support forums a while back and got ZERO answers so......
when playing certain bluray rips/iso's like the doobie brothers quadio set and marvin gaye whats going on
IF I click on the gear icon to check audio path input says its 16 bit NOT 24 bit . Any clue as to why?
I have confirmed that the files are indeed 24bit, this does NOT happen with any sacd iso's or rips (not yet anyway)

I don't have a gear icon that I can see but I can pick Player>Audio Path, screen shot: As you can see on mine The Quadio Doobies BD-A shows as 24/192. If I also click Audio Path it shows same. How are your DSP and output settings?

 

[wrat]

Im using a different skin but you can see gear icon, bit depth set to auto , output set to output encoding none, no upmix or downmix

 

[wrat]

output settings

 

[marpow]

Hmm, that is exactly how mine is set, except mine is 5.1 compared to yours 7.1, maybe for a 4.0 recording change to 5.1?

 

[wrat]

Im playing from an iso or a bluray folder, just ripped 1 doobies disc to flac with dvdae to see if that matters

 

[wrat]

well damn playing from bluray folder messes up jriver, ripped to flac it works as it should hmmm also had to change from 7.1 to 5.1 , need to check an atmos disc now , thats bizarre

 

[marpow]

Good, your chipping away.
I rip all my Blu Rays using MAKE MKV for the rip, and then for tagging, chapters, etc I use Music Media Helper.
For DVD's I use as you did DVDAE.
Also in JRiver I have 3 playback zones, mostly because I am nutty, but definately need to create an ATMOS zone, different from either, in my case, a stereo zone and a MCH zone. My stereos will play back in my MCH zone but my MCH will not play back in my stereo zone.

I made a backup of the Quadio disc with the whole folder structure using MakeMKV, and It shows 192 / 24 in JRiver.
I didn't have to do anything in JRiver and the output channels setting doesn't matter, so I don't know why yours shows 16 bit.

Note: It shows "6 channels" in the screenshot above, but the input is actually DTS-HD 4.0. Looks like JRiver just interprets and processes it as 6 channels by default. And the center and LFE channels ( 3 and 4) are empty as shown in the screenshot of my audio interface.

yours is also reporting 32 bit using asio... mines 16 using wasapi BUT only from folder playback

 

[wrat]

this is flac

 

[wrat]

this is from folder

 

[bracelis]

How did you make the disc backup ?
My BDMV backup folder of the Stampede disc shows 8.6GB vs your 11.4GB.
Also my Input shows "dts-hd ma" vs your "dts", and 6ch vs 8ch.

As I mentioned, I used MakeMKV backup:

This is the folder that contains the single M2TS file:

When you right click on the display window, what does it show under "Streams" ?

And can you select the DTS-HD Stereo track ?

 

[wrat]

its reading the whole folder which contains the separated flac files
I noticed the dts vs the dts hd as well thats strange

used dvd fab to back up

 

[wrat]

same thing as yours here

OK then the only thing I can suggest is that you try MakeMKV, since I know that it works for me.

I just dont think that is the answer its something within jriver

 

[bracelis]

What about the stereo track ?
Or when you play the M2TS file directly ( File ---> Open Media file).

Have you tried other DTS-HD tracks (96/24, 48/24) ?
There are several DTS-HD 48/24 files available here for download, 5.1 and 7.1:

[wrat]

It does the same thing
from the M2ts file its something with dts/jriver
with pcm its fine with flac its fine

 

[wrat]

24/96 pcm from folder
