Please add support for DTS for the Sonos Playbar.

A hifi homecinema soundbar without dts support seems not up to date for me. Are there any plans to add dts support?

      The playbar is really great, but without DTS support absolutly useless for all new blue-ray movies! Add DTS as soon as possible!

      Hello Sonos, another vote for DTS. ...without DTS the PlayBar is like a car with only three wheel's.... You may not see ist at first, but You will hardly notice it, when You are trying to use it. ...so please make the PlayBar complete!

      Of course DTS is required. It's table stakes for this game.

      In just 49 days DTS support has easily become a Top 10 idea on ask.sonos.com, with an average in excess of three votes per day. Says it all really.
      I am no longer active on these forums, DM me if you have a question, I'd be happy to help.

      No DTS = No Playbar Glad I found this forum - I was about to order the Playbar to be added add to my existing Sonos system (4x Play 3, 1x Play 5, Bridge).

      Please add DTS support for the Playbar. I would then be more than happy to purchase one with a sub!

      At first, I thought the lack of DTS support wouldn't trouble me too much, but it ends up being really frustrating! I purchased a Blu Ray player to go with my new set up, but have very few options when it comes to BDs with Dolby Digital. Sure, I can always scale back to Stereo PCM, but it just seems so absurd and ends up frustrating.

      This weekend it happened for the first time ever, I had to not recommend a SONOS product to a friend... I really hope that DTS is integrated soon, so we all can go back to feeling good having invested so much in SONOS products...

      This seems to me to be an absolute no-brainer, this is marketed as a premium home cinema product, but it will force many people (including me) without appropriately compatible TVs to watch films on reduced quality DVDs in order to get sound. That's clearly not acceptable. I have seen some suggestion that it is a licensing issue, and taht the license would cost around £30 per person. Well, if you have already spent £1200 on the bar and sub then I can't see too many people resisting a further £30 to get this capability. I for one would send Sonos the payment now...
