Please add support for DTS for the Sonos Playbar.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I was doing some investigations on the PlayBar (considering it as the next addition to my Sonos-system) and learnt that there is no DTS-support. Really, Sonos... I mean, come on. You gotta be kidding me... Please add it as soon as possible. Right now, this is a dealbreaker for me!

I will not buy PlayBar until DTS is supported. Please add as soon as possible so that I do not have to buy another soundbar.

I completely agree.

I am looking to purchase a TV soundbar within the next couple of months, my current favourite is the Yamaha YSP-2200, the Sonos Playbar would be a contender if it had DTS support, but until then it is off my list. Which is a shame, as already I have Play 3 and Play 5 speakers to suppport it. I just cannot believe that Sonos Marketing the Playbar as a TV soundbar, honestly thought that the DTS question wouldn't come up! It's a no brainer for anyone seriously looking to use this for home cinema, would want DTS support. DTS is a much more natural sound than Dolby Digital. Stop messing about and get sorted Sonos. This is exactly the same nonsense as when you couldn't play music that was stored on your iPhone, you eventually sorted that out.

I have a very satisfactory solution. I have playbar the SUB and 2 play 3. I bought a Samsung blu ray player that can stream audio bitstream re-encode in Dolby. Playbar recognizes the signal and indicates dolby digital 5.1. Rendering a DTS HD track is very good. As good in any case by choosing an audio track in another language in Dolby. Tested with the film The Town
You're not reading properly. Point 1 concerned DVDs, not Blu-ray - it won't convert the audio on DVD sources. I'll be honest, whilst I'm rather sceptical due to the amount of caveats that Samsung put in the user guide, I'm pretty much desperate to try anything right now. I've got a shelf full of blu-rays that I simply cannot watch in surround sound and it is driving me mad. I'm tempted to buy one of these Samsung players to try and then return it if it doesn't do the job. The main stumbling block is that it has the wrong connector on the back...which means another adapter, another power supply and another mains socket. The irony that Sonos saved a few £s by not paying for a DTS license and I'm now considering spending ~£100 on a workaround that will only help with my blu-rays and no other sources. At this point, I'm thinking I may as well plug the Bose Lifestyle back in with the ZP90. Whilst it was a bit tricky to switch to Sonos audio and back, I actually watch surround sound TV/movies more than I listen to music in that room anyway.

I can't use playbar in my home theater without DTS support, and I don't see the point of playbar outside of a home theater, so yeah, not buying a playbar until it supports DTS.

I agree with the DTS and have added my vote here. However I sold my Yamaha YSP-2200 for the Playbar with Sub and Play 3 surrounds and difference is like night and day for me. The Sub goes a lot deeper than the Yamaha did, vocals are clearer and you can't beat true surround from Speakers behind which I have been missing the last 2 years with the Yamaha. It's all swings and roundabouts. Loving the Playbar but just pray they add DTS with enough of our votes.

A playbar for Blu-Rays that is missing DTS support? Fail! I'm not gonna recommend the playbar as long as this feature is missing!

Love your idea of an in app purchase to buy the DTS license. I would certainly pay to have a DTS update to my Playbar right now.

OMG I really need to know if it's possible to be added by firmware upgrade. Just put my old system on ebay and ordered a load of sonos stuff without knowing about the DTS issue. The whole point of going sonos everywhere was to solve my sound woes no go back in time to most of my movie collection not working.
