No. My TV is a lot smaller and has a lot lower resolution than my computer screen does... and it's not like I leave the computer much when I'm at home, so personally I don't see the point at all. Now if I had some huge-ass plasma TV or something, I'd probably just use my laptop and a normal DVI cord instead. In my experience, I find computers to be a lot less of a pain to work with than set-top boxes...

I think you missed the point. I just grabbed some number out of thin air... The thing is, there's a parameter to mkvmerge that lets you specify with what precision the timecodes should be stored; by default they're accurate to the millisecond, but that can be changed.

I didn't even mention DTS, since noone sane releases anything with it (Y HALO THAR, BITRATE WASTE!).

Actually, most raws I've bothered to poke at the audio of seem to have had a lowpass filter applied at ~16kHz for some reason, meaning that lowering the samplerate to 32kHz wouldn't make much of a difference. Not that I'd do that, but anyway...
