It is possible for DD.  I don't think it's possible (yet) for
DTS.  You do need
an audio card with digital out hooked up to a DD decoder (i.e. your
receiver) to
get true DD sound.

The setup that works best for me is:
1)  Rip and encode with FairUse--demuxing the the AC3 (Dolby
Digital)
soundtrack.
  FairUse can be found at:
  www.doom9.net-->download-->DivX/MPEG-4 Encoders-->FairUse
0.30

2)  Use the Nandub to mux the audio with the video.  Your audio
card needs to be
able to output SPDIF to your DD decoder.
  See the guide at:
  www.doom9.net-->TheGuides-->Audio Related-->AVI/AC3 Guide
"How to create a
DivX movie with AC3 sound"
The audio filters and procedure necessary for playback are available there
as
well.

Most movies with full DD soundtracks should be split between two CD's
for
acceptable quality.

Good Luck!
