As pointed out by many, directly converting to flac using foobar
preserves the dts encoding. I had some issues due to a corrupt file -
should've explored further before posting. I'm just starting to
realize how powerful JRMC is on the conversion side, and will
experiment with that as well.
I recognize that dts is lossy. Still, a good hunk of my older files
are in dts format, so I take what I can get. Not trying to fool
anyone.
The size savings adds up for me, so it's worth using flac vs wav.
