How to view HD movie from computer to the nice LED TV you just bought?


I was able to view my HD movies (MKV files) from computer using the samsung share manager.

The decoder on the LED TV was able to work with most of the files but got some problem trying to read DTS files (proprietary codec).

So I needed to separate the audio from the video, reencode into AC3 and finally, put back together all the files.

1st step, download mkvtoolnix, it will allow you to demux (separate video and audio channels)
2. convert to AC3 with DAudioK
3. remux all the files back together using mkv toolnix "mkvmerge"

that's all folks
