Figure 10-9 Append Tool Diagram
Audio to timecode synchronization for all encodes following the initial encode will be lost. As
demonstrated in Figure 10-9, appending one Encode to another will cause Encode 2 to drift later in time,
no greater than one DTS frame. This drift will increase with every Encode appended. The resulting
DTS-HD encoded file will retain the start time of the initial encode.
Note: Only DTS-HD encoded streams with matching stream characteristics can be joined
with the append operation. The only items that may differ are File name, and timecode
related information. Since it is not possible to detect “-3dB Rear Channel Attenuation”, “ES
Phase Shift” and “Downmix Coefficient" discrepancies between encoded streams that are
being joined, DTS recommends that users not join encodes that differ in this fashion.
Note: Proper audio editing technique dictates that all edits take place during a silent passage
or near zero crossing in order to avoid audio anomalies at the edit point. If bit exact editing is
required, use the Join tool to perform the operation.
Note: For Appends using more than 2 input files, a temporary file will be held in the user
directory of the user’s computer. Should a space issue arise, please ensure that both the
destination directory and the user directory (OS Drive) have enough free space to create the
output file.
