I built the following graph with graphedit:

File source (BD m2ts file) ---> Nero Splitter ---> Nero Audio Decoder 2 ---> Renderer.

The graph plays fine, but when I go to the Nero Audio Decoder 2 settings it reports that the bitrate is 640kbps (so I guess it basically gets the DD core).

Is this a mistake or is it really plays the DD core instead of TrueHD audio ?

Thanks.

Edit: I think the problem is even worse.

I took a look at two BD movies with Dolby TrueHD track using TSRemux and it recognized all of the audio streams, including the TrueHD track.

But in Nero splitter and Haali it only shows 4 audio tracks, where there are five actually, so this makes me think that the problem is the splitter.

Which splitter can recognize Dolby TrueHD tracks ?

I'm not sure, maybe the Sonic one. Anyway, that doesn't really belong into this thread. BTW, the Nero Audio Decoder doesn't like Blu-Ray TrueHD streams (because of the interweaved AC3 frames). So even if you found a splitter which exports TrueHD you can still not easily decode it with Nero. Except by using eac3to, of course.
