Johan,

When I got xine working with my SPDIF output, the only lines I needed
to check (in ~/.xine/config) were:

# device used for stereo output
audio.device.alsa_front_device:default

# pass through to SPDIF
audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Pass Through

My default PCM device is my SPDIF output (configured using Mike Dean
excellent Digital Sound HOWTO), after specifying the speaker option,
everything worked immediately, and my blue Dolby Digital light lit up
as soon as I played a DVD.

The other SPDIF related entries were OK left at their defaults:

#audio.device.alsa_passthrough_device:iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
#audio.device.alsa_surround51_device:plug:surround51:0

Do you get any errors when xine crashes?

Nick
