Disc... Only 2 Channel AC-3. However, in the 'main program' (Why isn't the blu-ray functionality included in the main program when HD-DVD functionality is), it does allow DD 5.1. Any workaround for this? Support ticket has gone unanswered thus far. The whole reason I bought the program was based on the advertised 5.1 AC3 compatibility and, of course, Blu-Ray discs. I am using compliant HD MPEG streams and have the do not transcode compliant streams option checked (it'll 'burn' to a HD-DVD without transcoding just fine using the main Ulead MF+ 6 App).
Thanks in advance,
MF6+ Won't allow me to select DD5.1 when compiling a Blu-Ray

Just an FYI, as it supports importing DVD titles in the BD Burning application, this also prevents you from consolidating, say, TV Season Collections from multiple DVDs to one Blu-Ray Disc - a very saught after feature.
Also, if I use the main application to create an HD-DVD Directory structure from the exactly same MPEG File (It doesn't bother to transcode, it's standards compliant), it'll create it in about 4 minutes and play back with a 5.1 channel track in PowerDVD, so I know it's not the input file. The BD Recorder App seems to be insisting on transcoding the high def file to 2 Channels, the only encoding option selectable in it.
In fact, I just tested out the audio transcodes from both imported DVD Titles and High Def Mpeg Files with 5.1 AC3 Sound Tracks, both end up, while having a listed DD soundtrack on the outputted Blu-Ray having no audio whatsoever on PowerDVD Ultra, a Sony PS3, or a Sony Set-Top player.
This is very frusterating, basically, the product isn't outputting any sound at all, much less 5.1 Audio, when using it to burn Blu-Ray Video Discs.
Any ideas?

I guess the upside is that the functionality works great for HD-DVDs and if I ever get an HD-DVD Burner (only have a player now), and blanks become cheap, I'll be able to do my high def transport stream backups that way quick and effectively.
Unfortunately, I don't see myself getting a HD-DVD burner anytime soon.
Hopefully someone from Ulead will pop their heads in and tell us all there's a patch coming very soon to enable Blu-Ray support for these things or at least a way to request a refund of a Digital Download purchase so I could put the money towards some overpriced product (for my needs) like DVDit Pro 6 HD.
I just need basic HD Video playback on Blu-Ray Discs with 5.1 DD audio, no menus or any other logic involved.
