• How to Encode TrueHD Audio with Dolby TrueHD
  Encoder Software?

• I have a bunch of Blu-ray files that have
  TrueHD, and I want to retain the TrueHD audio. I
  typically use Handbrake to compress the video
  files, but I have held off on the TruedHD audio
  contents since it doesnt pass them through. I
  tried a few other encoders Megui, Staxrip. To be
  honest I struggle and couldnt get it to pass
  TrueHD through as I dont fully get them.
  Basically, how can I compress those videos and
  retain the TrueHD audio?
• Here I am going to introduce a Dolby TrueHD
  encoder for you to encode TrueHD audio. Check the
  post out to retain Dolby TrueHD audio of video
  files.

Part 1 Introduction to Dolby TrueHD Audio

• Dolby TrueHD is an advanced lossless
  multi-channel audio codec developed by Dolby
  Laboratorieswhich is intended primarily for
  high-definition home-entertainment equipment such
  as Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD. It is the successor
  to the AC-3 Dolby Digital surround sound codec
  which was used as the audio standard for DVD
  discs. In this application, Dolby TrueHD competes
  with DTS-HD Master Audio, another lossless codec
  from DTS.
• In the Blu-ray specification, Dolby TrueHD is an
  optional codec. Dolby TrueHD audiotracks may
  carry up to 24 bit audio in up to 8 discrete
  audio channels at 96 kHz or up to 6 channels (5.1
  surround) at 192 kHz. The maximum encoded bitrate
  is 18 Mbit/s (the same as the uncompressed rate).
  Since TrueHD is an optional codec, a separate
  (primary) AC-3 audiotrack must be present on
  Blu-ray discs that contain a TrueHD track.
• In the HD DVD format, Dolby TrueHD was a
  mandatory codec. The HD DVD specification
  permitted the sole (primary) audiotrack of a
  movie to be encoded in Dolby TrueHD, and the
  specification requires support for up to 2
  channel (stereo) decoding. In practice all HD DVD
  players decoded multichannel (5.1) programming,
  and of the few HD DVD movies to be encoded with
  Dolby TrueHD audiotracks, all were multichannel.
