Yeap, that's really the main reason why I posted it up.
I transcoded a 6Ch AAC using Nero last night. Have to say I was impressed.

I used Besweet to create a 6Ch AIFF @ 44000khz and feed that to Nero.
Muxed AAC with a WMV9(VCM) stream using mkvmerge with SRT subs too.

Played back without a hitch in media player. No delay in opening the file. No shudders either.
Used Trombetworks Channel Downmixer to downsample to 2Ch Stereo.

MatrixMixer would all 6Ch outputing sound.
Well impressed with Nero's AAC so looking forward to AAC+ :)
