I don't know if our DVD Player supports DTS audio tracks. I'd guess that it doesn't, but you should check with a more authoritative source.

The process for doing it would be more or less as you outline it. I would only add that you should only do this with devices that allow you to turn mixing off so that you can use native mode. If you set the IO buffer size to be the number of frames per packet, you then just dump the raw data for each encoded packet into the output buffer.

What about DTS data streams?

I know that DTS streams are typically the same bit rate as 16/48, or half that
these days now that the quality has dropped. You can use a PCM stream at
16/48 (or 16/24?), but you would want the application to set hog mode to
prevent mixing other 16/48 streams. Will DVD Player handle all of this? (or
does it not have the DTS sticker/badge :-)

For our DVD Player to send AC-3 data to your device, your device has to
say it can handle it by having your driver advertise at least one
available format whose format ID is kIOAudioStreamSampleFormatAC3.

I am informed that the DVD Player app in OS X will only pass the
stereo PCM audio tracks to an output device. What is involved in
enabling all the DTS information to passed to an audio device?
