Watching Movies With Dolby

[Forethat]

Occassionaly, I manage to get hold of a disc image of a movie (you can probably figure out how I got it) but I struggle to figure out how to watch this movie with the Dolby sound without first burning it to a DVD. I never watch .avi or similar, only DVD rips.

Someone out there who can advice what hardware/software I need to buy, and where in BKK I can buy it to make this work?

Google Iso mounting software.

There are numerous programmes that will allow you to play the disk with its full sound track.

Mounting the .iso and/or playing it is no problem, the problem is I dont get the full Dolby audio.

Does your player sw and/or your sound card support decoding Dolby?

Perhaps you need to feed the output to an external decoder?

[nocturn]

do you have digital outputs? HDMI?

if yes you will need a codec like ffdshow to pass through the digital signal.

if no, you will never get surround

Digital output, optical or coax, to a suitable decoder should give

Dobly, if the audio stream contains the info.

Another thought is a media player...like a Western Digital. They are pretty cool and only about 4k Baht here. Great options for audio, video, subtitles, etc....I haven't burned a DVD in over a year.
