• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I have WD elements play, that can't play DTS audio format...
I found on forums that there is easy way to change audio format on MKV on MAC, but I am new in MKV world, so I don't understand what are they talking about...
If someone can tell me what to do on MAC??? It seems easy, but can't get it... Do not understand terms, and where to find that stuff :)

TY

Your Mac's Specs
20" Intel iMac 2.4 Ghz/3G Ram/320HD, Snow Leopard. PBook G4, 1.5Ghz/1.5 Ram/250 HD, Leopard 10.5.6.
The WD will downmix the DTS to stereo though, right? So you should get stereo sound. How are you connecting it, and to what?
As for the MKV issue, you could remux it in Handbrake, or extract the audio stream in MKV Toolnix, convert it using Max, and then remux it back into the MKV, but I suspect that I may have just made the issue more complicated for you :)
