windvd 3 hybrid????

Hi chaps,<br />I originally was using windvd 2.6 was very happy with it, then came the DTS enabled 3.0 version, but to me the picture was worse so i went back to version 2.6.<br />I've read on the AVS forum that people have been using bits of version 2.6 with version 3.0, how do you go about doing this(i want DTS) or is version 3 been upgraded yet?????

TIA

Tim,<br />How are you using DTS?, if you have a DTS amp/receiver then you don't need the DTS decoder from WinDVD 3, if you do need the decoder then I think that you have to use WInDVD3. You can use hybrid WinDVD if you enable DirectShow in DVDGenie but although you would be able to use the version 3.0 audio filter with WinDVD 2.6 or 2.8 I still don't think you would be able to use the DTS decoder. If you are just passing DTS untouched to a DTS amp/receiver it should just work.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the reply,i was using windvd 3 & dts worked fine went back to version 2.3(better picture) no dts,patched to 2.6 still no dts
So i concluded(wrongly????) that the earlier windvd versions could not pass thru dts to my Yam A1.
I have now found the rare 2.8 patch(picture is gorgeous )all now works perfectly.
Sorry about the lack of info in my previous post

BTW how's the PJ purchase coming along??

Cheers
Tim

It's going great!
