. . .DTS is a company that makes the DTS compression technology and releases DVD-A discs and DTS-encoded CDs.
DTS-encoded CDs (and movie DVDs) will output via the analog jacks if the player has a DTS-decoder built-in. otherwise, your processor/receiver will have to do it via a digital connection.
a DTS DVD-Audio disc will ONLY output via the 6-analog jacks because you can't output DVD-Audio via a digital connection at full resolution.
i understand your confusion, and it lies in the fact not all DTS releases use DTS-encoding. they should have come up with a different name to release their discs.

This seems rather odd. What "DTS releases" don't have a DTS track?

Will a DTS DVD-A (the ones that say, DTS decoder needed) output to the mixed stereo outputs on the DVD-A player?
Thanks for your help, this is the question I have been trying to ask.
Thanks....Tre'

  First of all, the DTS track on a DVD-Audio disc has nothing to do with DVD-Audio, it is there for potential playback by people who do not have a DVD-Audio player (most DTS DVD-Audio discs include a DTS track, similar to other releases having a DOlby Digital track for backward compatibility).

  If your player has a DTS decoder, it should be possible to do this, you would need to set the appropriate DTS/stereo settings, though.
