HOWTO

# libdca/libdts 0.0.5
# ===================
# You'll see both libdca and libdts all over the place, the directory
# name for 0.0.2 was one, with 0.0.5 it's the other, both are used
# interchangeably in the README. I get that DCA = DTS Coherent Acoustics,
# but I'm not sure which name is "correct".
