Hello,

I have being working with 'a_freyer' to get the mkvdts2ac3 script working. After some trial and error, he managed to solve the problem he was presented with.

I feel obliged to share the outcome of this work now.

If you don't know what this script is, basically it converts your the audio from within your MKV file, if it's DTS (which isn't greatly supported in hardware) to a playable format, AC3 (or Dolby Digital). All this without touching the video. Pretty clever.

So now with Hazel, when a new file gets put in a folder, the script will automatically run and convert the file.

Please note, if you want to know how to use the script properly, please go to the authors GitHub page: https://github.com/JakeWharton/mkvdts2ac3

You can find my modified script here: https://github.com/cjmellor/MKVDTS2AC3-Hazel

While it's good to see you guys working together without me, I can only wonder if it's a matter of time before you rise up and overthrow me.

@cmellor, he's onto us! ;-)

The following will introduce a powerful DTS Converter as well as a step by step guide on how to convert DTS to other audio format at http://www.idealshare.net/dts-converter.html

This guide applies to:
Convert DTS audio to other audio formats like converting DTS to AC3, WAV, AAC, MP3, MP2, FLAC, AIFF, WMA, OGG, APE, M4A, AU and etc.
Convert video with DTS audio to video with AC3, AAC, MP2, PCM, or WMA audio like convert MKV DTS to MKV AC3/MP3/MP2/PCM, convert AVI DTS to AVI MP3, and etc.
Convert to DTS digital surround audio from WAV, AC3, FLAC, APE, PCM, AIFF, OGG, WMA, M4A, and Apple Lossless.
Convert video with non DTS audio codec to video with DTS codec files.

In order to play MKV DTS on Samsung/LG Smart TV, we will need to convert MKV DTS to MKV AC3 or convert MKV DTS to AC3 5.1 or Convert MKV DTS to AAC.

I recommend you a Converter works as outstanding MKV DTS to MKV AC3 Converter, DTS to AC3 Converter and DTS to AAC Converter. It can fast and easily convert MKV DTS to MKV AC3, convert MKV DTS to MKV AC 5.1 or convert DTS MKV to AAC MKV with high quality. In addition, it can also convert MKV, DTS MKV to AVI, MP4, WMV, WebM, H.264, MOV, VOB, DV and more and convert MKV, DTS MKV to audio MP3, AC3, AAC, WMA, M4A as well as convert DTS audio to MP3, AC3, AAC, WMA, M4A, RA and more.

Hope it can help you!

cmellor, I am getting 404 error on your link. Any chance you could upload modified script again?
Thanks.
