Converting WMA to AC3. How to?

[tijgert]

I have a file with a 5.1 WMA audio track that I would like to convert to AC3 since my new NMT doesn't accept WMA.

I've been dabbling with Graphedit and recognize the power of this tool. Unfortunately I am unable to figure out how to convert the audio this way and guides are not available.

So far I got that the WMA audio gets decoded as standard and I use the file writer plugin to write it to disc. But the intermediate step, the transcoding of the audio to AC3, is the problem.

How do I do this?

foobar2000 + Aften, Behappy + Aften, ffmpeg, etc.

Hmm... I just thought of something even easier...
How about I let Ripbot convert the video file with the WMA track into an MKV with a AC3 audio, BUT... as soon as it's done with the audio, I quickly move it to somewhere safe and abort Ripbot. That way I'd even skip the step of having to extract the audio...

It would be the least effort for the same result... [currently testing].

Test done: Works like a charm! a 1 step solution from WMA to AC3 :D
