MOV to DTS Conversion FAQ
How do I extract audio from a MOV video as DTS?
+
Upload your MOV video. PDF.to pulls the audio track out, encodes it to DTS, and gives you a DTS-only download. The video stream is discarded.
Will the audio in the DTS match the original MOV quality?
+
If the source audio is already in a codec compatible with DTS, we stream-copy without re-encoding — bit-identical to the original. Otherwise we re-encode at 192 kbps by default for near-transparent quality.
What bitrate is the DTS output?
+
192 kbps by default. The options panel exposes 96, 128, 192, 256, and 320 kbps — pick higher for music, lower for voice.
Can I extract only part of the MOV as DTS?
+
Yes. Use the trim controls on the upload preview to set start and end times before extracting, and only that range becomes DTS.
Does the converter handle MOV files with multiple audio tracks?
+
Yes. If your MOV has several language or commentary tracks, you can pick which one(s) to extract as DTS in the options panel.
Will the DTS output have the same sample rate as the source?
+
Yes by default. We do not resample unless you explicitly request it. 48 kHz is preserved from movie sources, 44.1 kHz from music sources.
Is the MOV to DTS extraction free?
+
Yes for files under 100 MB. PRO supports larger MOV files (5 GB) and parallel batch extraction.
Does PDF.to read or store my MOV content?
+
No. The MOV video and the DTS audio output are deleted within an hour. Conversion runs in an isolated worker.
Can I batch-extract audio from multiple MOV files?
+
Yes — drop a folder of MOV videos and you will get a ZIP of DTS files back, one per source video.
Will the DTS preserve tags and metadata?
+
Title, artist, and album tags are populated from the MOV container metadata when available. You can edit them after extraction with our audio-tag tool.
Does the converter work on streaming video URLs?
+
No — PDF.to converts files you upload, not third-party stream URLs. Download the MOV legally first, then upload it for DTS extraction.
Why is the DTS file much smaller than the MOV video?
+
Because the video stream (typically 90%+ of file size) is discarded. Only the audio track ends up in the DTS, which is why it can drop from gigabytes to a few megabytes.
