   If I may ask, what are the "magic status bits"?  Are they the same as the
AES bits?  Speaking of which, what's the use of the AES# bits?  I looked on the
internet but couldn't find what these bits mean.  

If AES# aren't the same as the magic bits, is there anything in there I can try
playing with?

(don't think you need these, but hey)
xine with dolby passthru: iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
ac3dec with -C:   iec958:AES0=0x2,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
ac3dec with -P:   iec958:AES0=0x87,AES1=0x0,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x0


   On a sidenote, ac3dec never makes the clicking noise; only xine does that.
But, I noticed that ac3dec always makes a click when I first start playing.
Could this be a result of the different AES# configuration?

   BTW, I am using a Cambridge Soundworks DTT2500 digital receiver.  Another
user suggested switching to digital input _after_ starting the stream.  Well, I
can't select digital or analog, but I can select analog or auto, so I leave it
on auto.
   This done, I tried playing a stream in xine _before_ turning the receiver on,
I don't get the clicking sound.  The only sounds I hear then are a click/hiss
when I change chapters on the DVD.

   Question: does the first bit of the stream have to "setup" the receiver to
receive an AC3 stream?  Some sort of "header"?
