Playing a MKV movie with AC3 codec on Galaxy Tab S2

If you came upon no sound issues when playing a MKV movie with AC3 codec on Galaxy Tab S2, you may wish to read this post. It displays how to fix MKV (AC3) no audio issues on iPad. 
Searching further and widely; some guys’ words give me a hint. “You are aware that MKV is merely the container for the audio and video streams? It gives no actual guarantee as to what the audio stream has been coded as. The reason you cannot view MKV with DTS audio on Galaxy Tab S2 is simple: the stock and downloaded player on Galaxy Tab S2 cannot find a suitable decoder for the file. So the easy workaround is to convert MKV DTS files to a more playable format, such as MP4 for Galaxy S5.

How to Encode AC3 MKV files for viewing on Galaxy Tab S2 without no sound issues? 

Step 1. Add video files to the program 

Launch the program and add videos in the following two ways: 1> Click Add button to choose .mkv files from your hard drive for converting. 2> Directly drag the .mkv movies you want to convert to the left item bar. To save your time, you can add multiple files for converting at a time since batch conversion is well supported. 

 

Step 2. Choose output format 

Choose output profile via clicking the Format bar. Here I recommend you select “Samsung > Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Video(*.mp4)” as the export format. The output videos could fit on Galaxy Tab S2 8.0/9.7 perfectly. 

 

Tips: DTS to AC3 5.1 Availability - Set advanced video and audio settings. 

Click on "Settings" button, and the following window will pop up, which enables you to adjust video and audio parameters including codec, aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, sample rate, etc. Here you set Audio codec as AC3, and adjust Audio sampling rate and Bit rate to fit your player. By the way, 5.1 sound is available in "Channels". I find that bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss. 

Note: Remember the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss. 

Step 3. Start MKV to Galaxy Tab S2 conversion 

Finally click on “Convert” button of the best Galaxy Tab S2 Video Converter to start encoding MKV to MP4 for Galaxy Tab S2. 

Once the conversion finished, transfer the converted video MKV files to Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 for playback at ease.
