What is the fastest way to change DTS audio from an .mkv file to AAC audio?

Is there a program that just change the audio format without encoding the video file in the .mkv container so that the movie would be encoded faster?

I use Popcorn MKV Audio converter.

A little tricky to set up as it is basically a front end for other editing software, and you have to aquire all the required pieces and place them in the specified locations, but once this is done it works like a charm, it strips out the audio, and re-encodes without touching the video. Very fast and effective.

Drop the videos onto the script. Defaults are to recode both audio and video. Change video recode to NO from pop-up menu, so only audio is recoded.

In the advanced section of the menu, you can select either keeping surround, or downmixing it to stereo. If stereo, then it encodes to MP3 via LAME; if 5.1, it uses NeroAACEnc to encode to 5.1 AAC. Surround AAC isn't widely supported, so you may want to stick with stereo.

On my system, it takes about 6min to recode audio (per audio track) of a 2-hr movie. Since it does folder processing, you can drop the whole movie folder and it'll process 5-10 movies an hour.

This is the one I used to use for converting for the xbox. It doesnt mess with the video, just the audio, so its quick and easy.
