Thanks, but I already set the cache to 5000 ms, it doesn't help.As far as I know there is a general problem with S/PDIF output.
However, you could try raising the file cache. To do this go to:
Settings >> Preferences... >> Input / Codecs >> Access modules >> File
Then tick "Show advanced options". Enter a larger value for "Caching value in ms" (e.g. 1000) and press "Save". You may need to restart VLC, then try playing DTS through S/PDIF.
If that doesn't make any difference then you could test out one of the latest VLC nightly builds (0.9.0-svn):

MacBook 2.0 intel, leopard 2GB and Mac Mini 1.83 Intel, leopard 1GB.this also happens to me; macbook, 2.16 intel, leopard, 2GB. DTS is choppy - more corrupted than stuttering.
any resolution would be appreciated!
any assistance anybody needs, just ask

I find the contrary, when I don't choose encoded output from files with a DTS soundtrack, it comes out fine from my amp, obviously not in DTS, and - I think - suffering a little bit from being encoded on the fly into something that can be sent down the optical wire to my amp.I can confirm that DTS @ 1.5 Mbps sounds cracky in VLC. Never noticed this before but I just found out in the Queen Montreal/David Gilmour RAH rips. Time to leave the Mac OS X platform and go to Windows for us OS X users?
p.s. no receiver connected, the sound goes direct from the Mac to the TV and it's cracky.
