I just created an MKV of my disc ANNA which has a 7.1 TrueHD track and AC3 core (leaving both video and audio intact). Imported MKV back into BDRB and it still wants to reencode the track to AC3. Would this scenario not be compliant? Very confused...
I don't think you can import into an MKV without the core being removed or at least separated. Even if the AC3 is kept during import (as a second stream), it wouldn't be compliant because the two audios aren't muxed into a single stream for BD. That's if I remember it correctly.
