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?

    I am expecting an answer, or atleast a response from Sonos regarding this within a very short period of time - as in within few days. Otherwise my money goes to Bose instead

    Looks like Playbar owners need not apply to the future: Paramount chooses DTS audio for download once, watch anywhere UltraViolet files http://www.theverge.com/2013/7/16/4527770/paramount-chooses-dts-audio-for-ultraviolet-common-file-format

    Has there been any further advance in getting DTS support via firmware update for the 5.1 setup?
    Setting up a new home theatre. Sold on the playbar (have lots of other sonos gear inc sub). All awesome. Point is my home theatre guy has just spent an hour talking me out of Sonos because of this issue. Not sure how long I can hold off.

    I understand what you're saying, but for me it's even more alarming than that - without DTS capability, straight forward bluray playback is heavily compromised.

    I was going to purchase a playbar this month to add to my sonos set up, after reading this topic I will defer that purchase until DTS is supported, If its not a quick fix then ill be looking to Yamaha.

    With Blurays being a large part of my video library unfortunately doesn't make any sense for me to buy the Playbar and all associated Sonos components.
