Last updated

Quick answer: To convert DTS to OPUS, add the DTS file to the iHateFiles DTS to OPUS converter and press Convert. The conversion runs in your browser, so the file is never uploaded, and it is free with no sign-up, watermark or size limit. DTS is a format most software has stopped opening. OPUS is not.

Should you convert DTS to OPUS?

Yes. Very little current software opens DTS, so converting it is the way to keep listening to it. Pick a generous bitrate.

Both DTS and OPUS are lossy

DTS (DTS surround) has already discarded some of the sound, and OPUS (Opus) will discard a little more. The OPUS encoder works from the DTS, not the original recording, so pick a bitrate at or above the source. A lower one saves space and costs quality you cannot get back.

Where the OPUS will play

OPUS plays on browsers, Android, WhatsApp and Discord, but not many car stereos or older players.

What usually goes wrong

About the DTS. Playing DTS on a device that cannot decode it produces silence or static rather than an error, which looks like a broken file.

About the OPUS. Opus at 64 kbps sounds better than MP3 at 128, so the bitrate you are used to is roughly double what you need here.

How to convert DTS to OPUS

  1. Add your DTS file. It is read from your disk and stays there.
  2. Check the settings. The output format is already set to OPUS.
  3. Press convert and the OPUS file is saved back to your device.

Questions

How do I convert DTS to OPUS?

Open this page, add your DTS file, and press convert. The file is decoded and re-encoded by your own browser and saved back to your device. Nothing is uploaded.

Is this DTS to OPUS converter free?

Yes, completely. There is no account, no sign-in, no watermark and no daily limit, because there is no server doing the work. Your own device does it.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. There is no upload endpoint. The conversion runs inside this browser tab, so your file never leaves your device. You can open your browser's network panel and watch: nothing carrying your file is sent.

Is there a file size limit?

No fixed limit. Because the work happens on your machine there is no server quota. The only ceiling is your own device's memory, which for video means very large files may be slow.

Will converting to OPUS lose quality?

OPUS is a lossy format, so some detail is discarded. The quality control on this page decides how much. The default is set high enough that most people cannot see the difference.

Can I convert several DTS files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like and they are converted one after another, then offered as a single ZIP.
