I can live with dialnorm for lossy DD, but I'm far less sure about it for an alleged lossless audio format. While I don't have any direct experience on the subject, I've heard from a couple of sources, the use of dialnorm during the TrueHD encoding process results in a decoded end-result which may not be transparent to the master (and it can't be bit for bit if it actually screws around with the volume levels). How much of this is FUD and/or improperly-implemented decoding in the players has yet to come out.
