Can megui handle dts audio files to transcode them into aac files (or whatever)?
I select the dts file, choose a audio profile,enqueue the project, press start and get an error.

Log for job job2

Error:

Does your DTS come from a Transport Stream? I get this error a lot with DTS from transport streams, but never with DTS from DVD. I haven't found a solution for it in MeGUI, but I can usually open the DTS file in BeHappy with NicDtsSource as the import filter and save it as a WAV file. Then I feed that into MeGUI as normal. Which is rather strange, because I thought they were the same/similar code.

{edit: I always downconvert to stereo, I don't know how 5.1 would work out with WAV as an intermediate}

will there be much difference using a dts file as source for aac rather than the ac3 ?

depends on how different the source audio files sound :)
