Hi
At first, i am not yet listening to dts or ac3 files. But i thought about how to handle tags for movie files and find the matroska container. It is using the extension mkv for video files. And it supports audio-only-files, too. These will get the extension mka.
Here you will find matroska's homepage http://www.matroska.org and here are some tag specific information http://www.matroska.org/technical/specs/tagging/index.html .
This could be a standalone improvement: "support reading of matroska tags", but i think it is yet another solution for your problems with tag support for dts and ac3 files. If the one with the id3v1 and ape is working, too, it is fine and ok. Then i think it is good to implement it, even if it is a "hack". (, isn't it? )
