But I don't need a menu ! Zoomplayer selects the main movie and than plays it. All those add ons and menu's are not nescesary for me. I just simply wan't to watch the movie that is on the disk  It does give me better sound quality, since everything is on 96Khz/24 bit 5.1 surround.

I know that most movies are NOT 96/24 bit but I have a movie that is 48/24bit and the sound output is 48Khz/16bit !
Like Cyberlink already explained :
"Hi, to Output HD Audio (> 48/16) you need to have a supported Audio device that supports secure audio path in order to follow content protection rules from the industry
if the sound card does not support the secure audio path, the audio must be down sampled.

My solution ?
I bought myself Zoomplayer and I can play wathever I want and at whatever quality I like ! For me it's 96Khz/24bit all around whether it is upmixed to that quality or not

I did not use wasapi, son853 did.
Cyberlink already explained what is wrong, for more comments regarding other issues please make a new thread.

Dear,
Yes, I have the latest k-lite codec pack installed.
For the rest everything is standard.

Ok so maybe you can update your creative audio drivers? May fix it in powerdvd. If it doesn't fix it tech support needs to fix this.
Bluray drm is rediculous. Anydvd must strip out all drm before powerdvd handles it therefore it seems like a powerdvd bug
Well yes, but the article where I found that info like it is comfirmed by Cyberlink today is from PowerDVD 12 !
So if they did not change anything between version 12 till now I don't think they will do it anytime soon.

Dear,
Than I'm correct in my assumptions, for my individual case the corel media player is better regarding to the sound card (Creative ZxR) issues. Since it sends 48Khz/24bit to my sound card without having to use AnyDVD HD to disable the security.
Thnks

Corel windvd pro 11 is worse. Every dts-hd ma disc I have tried has been 24/48 but always 1536kbps. I.e. Only playing the core audio not the lossless audio. Many other people have had this issue on their forums.
That's strange, since I get LPCM 48Khz/16bits 6 channels going to my sound card like mentioned in my 2nd message if I use PowerDVD 14.
Do you have a Creative sound card ?

I got a e-mail back from the universal publishing studios , "Unfortunately, we do not have the information that you requested."
But I took a look at the website of dolby and and there it says that the sound on a blu-ray can get up to 96Khz/24bit for 5.1 or 7.1 but is does NOT say it is !
So 48Khz/24bit is probably the normal overall DTS quality.
However like I mentioned in my 2nd message the problem around blu-ray security and the "supported" sound cards still percists when I use Cyberlink PowerDVD 14.
So I just downloaded a other trail version : Corel WinDVD 11 Pro
This media player does not seam to have any problems with my sound card and plays 48Khz/24 bit WITHOUT the use of anydvd HD !
The I ask myself the question why does "security on the blu-ray disk" malfunction with Cyberlink (is newer) and not with Corel ?
And if windows is set on 96Khz/24bit like my sound card won't the sound from the blu-ray be upmixed to it ?

Well I wrote to the studio that published the movie, than I know for sure what DTS-HD master audio is on a blu-ray disk. But the disk protection issue resulting in a lower sound quality I think is rediculous.

If your talking about dts-hd ma, it is always 24/48 the codec supports higher sample rate but doesn't mean it is being used. For example dts-hd ma supports around 20mbps bitrate but on bluray your only going to get around 5. The only reason you'd use dts-hd is if your not using English audio track on some discs haven't tested these but doubt these would use 96 sample rate considering they supposed to conserve space. It's like saying mp3 supports 320kbps. It doesn't mean it is 320kbps everytime. It just means it can be.
I understand that, but how do you explain what I wrote in my 2nd message ! I think every disk with DTS-HD master audio has 96Khz/24bit sound and the software encoder just downgrades it to 48Khz/24 bit and sometimes lower. Isn't that logical, because the higher the sound get's decoded by your playback software the more it will cost for them !

nothing to do with official. idt isn't supported afaik but i have full hd. bluray is 24/48 not 24/96. unless your playing an exceptional disc
are none of the 5.1 settings outputting 24-bit? if this is the case, tech support needs to know
I don't understand what your saying. DTS-HD master audio is 96Khz/24 bit for a 5.1 or 7.1 setup ! Look it up !

I already found the answer, it seams my +200 euro sound card can not officially handle that. It makes me wonder which retard is making things official or not. Luckily something like ANYDVD HD exists, if you use that you get 48Khz/24bit but still NO 96Khz/24 bit ! A shame that Cyberlink can't do anything about that or does not get payed to do so. And how old is the list of supported sound cards anyway ? This is clearly a lack of competence on behalf of the blu-ray security on the disks and Cyberlink !

Hello,
Why does powerdvd only output LPCM 48Khz/16bits 6 channels ?
DTS HD is 96Khz/24 bit !
Windows is configured to output 96Khz/24bit.
Am I missing something ? My soundcard (creative ZxR) should decode it to 96Khz/24 bit in 5.1 !
Thnks
Sebastian

1) no, the artifact problem is with the blu-ray movie Willow special edition from 2013, the dvd stutter occurs on more titels
2)no
3)I have 1 sound card and it is the video that stutters; the sound is great

Hello Michael,
Yes, no problem.

Hello Michael,
I switched SLI off but the result remains.
I use Windows 7 SP1 X64 Pro, Creative ZxR sound card, 2 x GTX660 in SLI, LGBH10LS38 blu-ray burner and the K-Lite codec pack; everything has latest firmware or software versions.
I tryed the software encoding with the blu-ray with artifacts but that did not change anything (only ANYDVD HD resolves that).
Thank You
Sebastian

Dear,
I found what is wrong, if I use hardware acceleration decoding I get the stutter if I use software decoding I don't and if I use software decoding with truetheater enhancement it's worse than the hardware option. Very weird since I have 2xGTX660 in SLI and a i7 CPU. VLC media player does things without issues !

Hello,
If I play certain movies from original dvd's or blu-ray's I experience a slow down of the image while sound continues; than the image speeds up to where the sound is.
I even had a blu-ray with artifacts and had 3 copies of it with the same issues but the issues where less with everyone of them.
Than I used ANYDVD HD and that solved the artifacts in the blu-ray movie.
But I did not have any luck in solving the slowing screen issues while playback; however a free media player VLC-media player works without any issues (for the dvd). So there is nothing wrong with firmware,hardware,codecs or windows (wich are all the latest versions).
I hope somebody knows what's wrong
thnks in advance
Sebastian
