I did so now and got strange results.
The dtshd track reported length by MI is none. In foobar2000 it's reported only 1h02m which is even not a half of true length.

ediainfo for dtshd:

Channel(s)                               : 8 channels / 6 channels
Channel positions                        : Front: L C R, Side: L R, Back: L R, LFE / Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE
Sampling rate                            : 48.0 KHz

Compression mode                         : Lossless / Lossy

Now I decoded it to wav using eac3to source.dtshd intermediate.wav -normalize -full

and got this 22Gigs big WAV file. If I open it in foobar2000 it seems to play all channels properly but is reported length only 10m29s

Also trying to convert this to aac results in only 10m29s track
