First of all, this codec pack is spectacular!
I'm having the following issue:
I am able to play files on WMP x64 with Dolby TrueHD, but I can't play files with DTS-HD.
On both app settings (32 & 64) i applied suggested settings, then on audio tab I checked "trueHD dts-hd" box.
Windows audio decoders are disabled.
I'm using HDMI over my ATI 6850 video card.

Also, I played the same file using PowerDVD 12 and DTS-HD works fine.

Any help will be appreciated.

Please disregard this post, I checked with another sample and DTS-HD works fine, but it seems a "different type" of DTS-HD.
The sample that works on PowerDVD (but it doesn't on WMP) my AVR detects it as "DTS-HD HI RES"
The sample that works on both players, my AVR detects it as "DTS-HD MSTR". No idea what's the difference.

I don't know why that particular file works OK with PowerDVD but it doesn't with WMP

sometimes running an MKV through Metafox (get it from my tools page) can fix mkv files and make them play properly. The program extracts the contents from the existing mkv and writes a new mkv using untouched audio/video/subtitles/chapters to a new mkv.

Ups! I've just edited my post right after your answered it! I realized that they were 2 different types of DTS-HD one was "High Resolution Audio" and the other one "Master Audio".

I will try that tool you mentioned and get back to you!
