WD TV HD Media Player ( WDAVN00 ) (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=572)

I have bought the above and it wont support DTS, thing is it will launch .iso from the net, ie a bluray movie, does anyone know of a way to get the DTS codec installed?

it does play dts but you have to use an optical lead from it to either a surround sound system or amp for it 2 carry the sound

Neat MK, didn't realise these existed.
Cunny, if the TV had an optical (blanked off in your case), I think these are for optical out.. so your TV sound is thru your amp. I don't think they are usually for input, but I could be wrong.
