True HD doesn't have an AC3 core does it? I thought that the AC3 track that accompanies True HD stuff was independent (i.e. a compatible second track) and not used to reconstruct the True HD from an AC3 core + additional supplementary audio (unlike DTS HD HRA and MA which use a DTS core and then add additional data that uses the core as a basis to construct the higher quality audio?)
Or am I mis-remembering? (ISTR that Dolby True HD tracks may have 'hidden' the AC3 secondary compatible track - but that it wasn't used in the MLP compression used by True HD?)
