i've uploaded a m2ts with true-hd audio. it's the dolby true-hd trailer, about 35mb. should be enough to test it guess.

Tested, it seems those streams are part of a category of streams that we don't deal with correctly.
We have to fix it.

1. Don't cross post
2. Precise VLC version and OS and OS version.

Uh, are you sure this was not intended for the "VLC media player for Linux and friends Troubleshooting" forum?
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.

Yeah, this is in the wrong forum and has NOTHING to do with the above issue, that was indeed fixed.
