You should purchase Sound Unbound and enable DTS:X HT [lossless], then store all your audio in [lossless] FLAC, and don't bother with the two [lossy] formats.
FLAC is free and can be played on practically all devices, imagine playing .DTS and .FLAC on a random mobile phone for example.

If you want more than 8 channels 192k then I guess you would want more than FLAC, but that's not likely.
You can store your .FLAC on a USB thumb drive, and plug that in instead of discs.

DTS:X HT uses the [DTS-HD Master Audio] format, with additional data for extra channels, other.

You can also use Dolby's app for their latest tech via HDMI. When you play a FLAC file via a media player, it will be decoded back to PCM and put through the audio system (same for games).
Any Dolby-DTS added processing, effects, other, will be added directly to [lossless] PCM audio as it passes through the Windows audio system.

All you need to do is switch between Dolby-DTS, and possibly set the AVR also. If your AVR supports PCM 8 channels, you don't strictly need to encode, just set 8 channels.
