Answering my own question, I'm currently listening to music on my surround system being played via: mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=0.0 -af lavcac3enc=tospdif <filename> Only have to sort through the 47,621,337 possible command line option combinations to figure it all out :-). (Actually I reused the alsa device option from the DVD ac3 passthrough magic I found previously on the web). I guess on the fly audio encoding isn't very demanding, my CPUs are both hovering around 1 to 2% usage. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
