The HDTV standard specifies AC3 audio kasi, kaya HDTVs support AC3 by default. OTA HD, HD Cable and HD Sattelite feeds normally use AC3 audio.

If you use MP4, your audio is going to be AAC, usually 2.0.  Sometimes 5.1, but no AV receiver is AAC-compatible. 
 
If you don't have an AV receiver, why bother with 5.1 DTS and AC3 sound?  Ok na sa 'yo ang AAC 2.0.  Hindi ka naman pala maselan, e di liitan na rin natin ang video size.  That's why you have the 720p 700MB MP4 with AAC 2.0 audio.   
 
But if you do have an AV receiver, you're going to want AC3 or DTS multichannel sound.  MKV dapat ang container.  Kung maselan ka sa sound, chances are, maselan ka rin sa video quality.  Taasan na rin natin ang video bit rate.  Ang effect, lalaki ang file size ng video.  But your TV will be happy with the video, and your AV receiver will be happy with the audio.  That's why 4.5GB to 16GB MKV files with AC3 or DTS multicahnnel audio are popular.  Because quality audio and quality video go together.   

At iyan ang alamat kung bakit traditionally maliit ang MP4 at malaki ang MKV.
 
May AC3 compatibility na raw ngayon ang MP4?  Too late na, nasanay na ang users sa MKV e.
 

You can have AC3 or DTS in stereo only. It will not necessarily mean that it is 5.1 or higher.

Agree to this. Even in DVD, AC3 is mandatory but not DTS.

If MKV, augmented, matigas and maingay. If MP4, exacto lang , naturally bouncy and hindi OA ang sound effect ng ecstacy. If not for the likes of Miela or Connie, hindi ko papansinin ang MP4. Hehe.

Id think, rather than pang sports ang MP4, it's more of pang-soloista.

OT: bro allan and ivan what "converter" would you recommend for audio, without losing the screen resolution? 
may mga tv  series kasi ako gustong gawin mp4 stereo instead of 5.1 DD para mabawasan ang size.  thanks :)
tried xilisoft but it also downgrades the video from 720p to 480p.  :(

Nasubukan mo na ba ang AVS Video Converter or Wondershare Video Converter  or Aimersoft Video Converter  or ImTOO Video Converter.

sir, what application software would you recommend for demuxing and remuxing a video file?


MP4 and MKV are just containers.  Audio-video quality do not depend on the containers, but on the the audio and video files themselves inside those containers.
 
Therefore, if you demux an MKV file, take the demuxed video and audio from the MKV and remux them into a new MP4 file, audio-video quality will be exactly the same, bit for bit.  That's because they're the same audio and video, just with a different container.

I'd prefer MP4, as this is the format of iTunes downloads, whether audio or video . . .
