I've seen talk of an alsa ffmpeg plugin that can convert simple stero sound to an ac3 stream for output to a sound system via SP/DIF output of a soundcard. (But I get the impression I'd have to rebuild alsa and alsa kernel modules from scratch to support it). I have successfully played DVDs with the raw digital audio stream sent directly to the SP/DIF output, so I know if the right stuff gets sent, I can do digital output to my receiver. What I'm wondering is: Is there a media player that can do something like use the ffmpeg libraries to do the ac3 encoding on the fly and send the digital stream to my SP/DIF output? Something stand-alone where I don't need to rebuild the whole sound system from source (I might as well switch to gentoo if I wanted to do that :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
