@archaeo
you can change the HCenc matrix in 'Title Edit'/'Video'/'HCenc advanced options', but it resets to MPEG at every new project.

Movie #1 Try #1: what does the Preview Clip window say? It is useful to understand if you have a problem in the directshow decoding chain.
Movie #2 Try #2: Muxman has rejected the kept DTS audio track. Try to re-encode it using QuEnc as AC3 encoder.
@ron spencer
Yes, it is. It is the default option, if the audio track is DVD compliant. See 'Preferences'/'AudioVideo'/'Keep DVD compliant audio'.
Are you really living in the isle of Sodor? Do you know Thomas?
