Author Topic: DTS6AD does not read some discs Phil Blake Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 558 From: esperance western australia Registered: Nov 2003 posted 08-09-2007 01:05 AM                        Following the instruction post on this I got a disc set for Lucky You from the distributor ran it as per Brads postinstructions and the system updates fine. Note there is no information printed on the disc to advise It contains software upgrade.  |  IP: Logged Mike B.

These are seperate updates files and basically they know where to go and will not load the wrong update files into the wrong players. The XD10 if needed will automatically detect if an update is required, caution should be used because the update will begin when the feature discs have completed loading and the enter button is pushed. The update will take about five minutes and if this is done during a show you will loose sound until the update is complete, the XD10 will not switch to optical automatically during this operation. If the update has already been loaded the XD10 will ignore the update on the disc and will not overwrite or reload it. The 6AD is a little more work, not quite automatic but close, follow the directions Brad linked to and you should have no problems. In the future I'm pushing for DTS to mark feature discs if they contain an update.  |  IP: Logged Geena Phillips Expert Film Handler Posts: 198 From: Norcross, GA / USA Registered: Apr 2006 posted 09-15-2007 09:53 PM                        Ian said: quote: Ian Bailey Not sure if DTS discs are "burnable?" Totally. I've interlocked enough to tell you DTS can absolutely be copied. Just make sure it's an EXACT copy of the original file structure; otherwise your unit (or the 6AD, at least) won't read it.  |  IP: Logged
