You may be able to play these files back using VLC. Have you tried that?

There is an application called Cinematize which claims to unpack DTS to an MPEG2 file that QuickTime can play, but I presume that would be either a folded down stereo file or simply the front left and right channels. This app costs $60 so I haven't tried it.

If you have Toast, you should be able to burn your files to a DVD or CD to create a surround DTS disc which your home DVD player.

I'm not sure if its Apple or DTS who make this such a complicated area. I've been trying to find an affordable DTS encoder for Mac for ages. At the moment I have to borrow a friend's PC with Nuendo and the SurCode plug-in as the only Mac version comes in at around £800.
