To see a comparison of popular media servers, click here It was originally based on PS3 Media Server by shagrath, in order to ensure greater stability and file-compatibility. It is capable of sharing video, audio and images between most modern devices. The PS4 does officially support DTS and DTS-HD, its just the media player app doesn't support it (Not sure if its just DLNA or also USB Media) which should realistically be a quick and easy software fix as the hardware already supports it, but will probably take a year or so judging by the amount of time it took for this app to release.Universal Media Server is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server. PCM is inside DTS, also Dolby (AC-3) and various other compression algorithms. PCM doesn't have DTS inside it, DTS is a compression algorithm for PCM. We might need to wait for DLNA 2.0 to hit to see any real progress on these consoles. Whereas your receiver most likely won't have cinavia protection.Įven if the PS4 gets DTS support officially, unless Subjunk can do something similar to the PS3 UMS the PS4 will forever remain inferior to the PS3 for DLNA. One added benefit to that as well is being able to bypass cinavia Because IIRC there is still no way to remove cinavia protection from an encoding that the PS3 will handle directly. The PS3 version of UMS is great because it allows the DTS to be passed straight to the receiver for decoding, instead of the PS3 decoding it (well technically the PS3 can't even decode DTS via DLNA, Subjunk uses a trick to pass PCM 2.0 to the PS3 with DTS hidden inside for the receiver to pickup on). It does, audio bitrate of 1.5mbps (DTS) vs 640kbs (AC3).

Since it's not able to decode DTS, every one of my clients has to be able to.

This gives me headaches with my synology NAS tho.

They're all over the place!įurthermore, I'm pretty sure DTS allows for a much higher bitrate, hence better quality. I don't understand ppl saying DTS in mkv's are pretty rare.
