It's A Digital Disease!

To save space I only selected the DTS-HD MA tracks and not the DTS core tracks when ripping my blurays. Now I noticed that probably my firetv stick 4k is incompatible with the HD MA format and it causes severe audio sync issues. Now I want to encode the audio tracks to EAC3 or AC3 and wanted to ask which is better to experience the full surround effect? I‘m planning to do that with ffmpeg, encode just the audio and then use mkvtoolnix to migrate it into the original mkv file. If there’s a better/easier option please point it out. P.S I can’t simply re-rip the discs because some where from the library, friends etc.
