Question about BR/HDDVD audio for HD200

I'm finally getting around to backing up all my HD-DVD's to mkv/m2ts and i'm not 100% what to do about the audio in every case. Does anyone have any advice for how I should handle the various different types of audio tracks that come up? Should I convert my lossess ones to FLAC? Should I always put on an additional AC3 track just for compatibility? If I have a TrueHD track should I just use that and depend on the HD200 being able to extract the AC3 core?

As you can see, i'm pretty confused, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you plan on useing the HD200 for playback hooked up to a TV (no external amp) then you should always include an AC3 track IMO.

EDIT: The videos that have True HD tracks work fine on the HD200 connected to a TV. DTS tracks don't.
