I had forgotten just how cursed this process is to get set up. Once I got a verified bit-perfect capture I never changed any settings ever again save for between 44.1/48 for PCM/AC-3.
Can you send me the raw capture so I can take a look?

Ah you’ve got me thinking, when I’m recording in Reaper there’s a few seconds of silence at the start and end of the capture, would that be an issue? Could trimming the start and end of the capture make a difference?
I’ll send you both a capture later on anyway.

The weak link here is definitely DTS Parser. It's a black box and inconsistent at best, even when I was testing this package out I had a lot of trouble. I'm thinking we can replace it with a custom app that will generate you a reference WAV (for instance, a 10 second clip of random bits, ie. noise) to burn to CD, then record it and use the app to match against the reference.

I now have a working app to try out. Unfortunately, my LD player has been busted so I can't fully check it myself, but I've tried adding silence and messing with the generated file via Sound Forge and all combinations seem good.
