Preparation
The Surround Encoder is an application for OS X versions 10.2.8 onwards,

pack and encode files
. The packer prepares the audio for the encoder.
The Packer also informs the encoder about the channel configuration,
sample rate, time code information, and frame rate information.
DTSEncoder.jar Surround Encoder application. The Encoder will not accept files that are
not packed. Open the DTS Encoder first,
only if there are files that have
already been packed.

2. Overview
There are three components to the Pro Series Surround Encoder system,
Pro Packer, Pro Encoder, and Pro Encrypter utility.
Important: All audio files to be encoded must first be processed using the
Pro Packer.
Start with the Pro Packer
The purpose of the Pro Packer is to bring all the source audio files together into a
single file. The Pro Packer checks the length of the files and the sample rate, to
ensure that you are supplying the encoder with compatible source files.
See
Using the Pro Packer, section 3.
Important: Open the DTS Encoder first, only if there are files that have
already been packed.
If you choose Pack and Encode , the Pro Packer will automatically open the Pro
Encoder to encode the packed file. See
Encoding Immediately after Packing
on page 12. Otherwise, you can pack the files and encode them at another time
or location. See
Using the Encoder in Standalone Mode on page 14.
Finally, if needed, use the Pro Encrypter utility to encrypt files for secure electronic
transmittal from place to place. See
Encrypting a File on page 18.
