Quicktime HD movie trailers to play on standalone?

[jfcarbel]

I know that my Panasonic supports AVCHD from a data DVD or a flash drive. The data DVD will have to be formatted in UDF 2.5

Since AVCHD is just H.264 video like Quicktime movie trailers, shouldn't there be a way for me to be able to play these on my Blu-Ray standalone?

I know that AVCHD is wrapped inside an MPEG-2 transport stream. But will it recognize other streams with H.264?

I found a thread which claims that PS3 owners can use Quicktime Pro passthrough conversion feature to change the .MOV to a standard .MP4 container.

Can standalones play the .MP4 files on a data DVD?

But I believe the audio may be in ACC which standalones would not support. But it might be possible to demux the audio, convert it to 5.1 AC3, and remux it. But I am not sure its even possible to convert ACC 5.1 -> AC3 5.1 and then even if it is there is a possibility of audio sync issues.

Its possible thought that if the audio is passed thru as bitstream via HDMI and your receiver supports ACC then you get audio in all its 5.1 glory without doing anything.

Has anyone attempted to get this working?

It would be awesome if I could download 1080 HD movie trailers from Apples site and view and hear them on my 60" HDTV via the Panasonic Blu-Ray.
