Yes, this is what is reported on DivX and QuickTime for some movies. It does not recognize DTS 8193 codec, says it is needed.
I have Perian, and everything else is updated to latest versions. I have had to download different rips of the same movies that do not have DTS only.
EG - The.Three.Stooges.2012.BluRay.Remux.1080p.AVC.DTS-HD.MA5.1-NYDIC - fails with the error
- American.Reunion.2012.UNRATED.1080p.BluRay.DTS.x264-LEGi0N - runs OK, no error
And even Handbrake does not convert those files, it fails to read them.
The video plays, no audio.
I can google DTS 8193 and get hits, references.

That explains why the Google search results for 8193 are so worthless. Everyone who does anything with codecs knows that when you express part of the fourcc as a number, you do so in hex! This just exemplifies yet another example of where the DivX folks just get things wrong.
Are these are avi files? Why someone would put DTS audio is AVI is beyond idiocy, but I said the same for AC3, H.264, MPEG4, and so forth.

Something you may want to do is possibly try converting the file to MPEG-4, using a tool such as Handbrake. It utilises libVLC, so it could be a workaround to your problem?In other scenarios I have come to the conclusion that it is sometimes simply easier to find a Windows machine and convert the file to MPEG-4. This gets around trying to find the obscure codec that was never ported to the Mac.

I did read the thread and the original author did mention DivX, so unless I missed something has audio and video, which can be converted by a tool such as Handbrake.
I realise DTS audio is common, though I simply made a general case for when I haven't been able to get stuff working. Certainly it would be better to get the original file read by Perian, but options (open source too) can't hurt.
