Revist an old problem: DTS on any Apple Product

[traderx1]

Now that iPad is out and it supports 720p, more and more people are going to convert their own movies to iPad/AppleTV format (which essentially are the same).

For those converting mkv or any hi-def source, what are you doing for the audio track. Most movies in mkv format (from a hi-def source) has a DTS soundtrack. Video conversion has not been a problem, since handbrake is excellent for those files...but audio, specifically DTS, is a huge problem and always been one.

Anyone know a workaround on a Mac computer to get these DTS audio tracks to AC3?

Are you suggesting people should pay for their digital content sir? How dare you suggest something so foolish! These people have long ago convinced themselves that they have a right to steal anything they want as long as they do it over the internet!

You can steal anything physically too.... just make sure you're not caught
