I got it to work as such (generator and encoder piped to an extra
command for feeding alsa):
$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i sine=200 -f lavfi -i sine=390 -filter_complex amerge -map
"[a]" -c:a dca -strict experimental -ac 2 -ar 48k -f spdif - \
| ffmpeg -f s16le -ac 2 -ar 48k -i - -c:a copy -f alsa hw:2,0
SPDIF over TOSLINK only supports up to 48k sample rate? I thought I had
read differently, but my memory is really bad (see below).
My audio player recognizes this as "dts". Funnily, if I use "ac3" as
ffmpeg's codec in the first command, it also plays fine, but *doesn't*
say "Dolby Digital" as it usually would. (Neither if I use six channels
via amerge=inputs=6.) *sigh* Whatever, should be fine all the same. It
*must* be Dolby. If I feed the "ffmpeg SPDIF to ALSA feeder" with:
$ ffmpeg -i Test\ AC3\ v2.0.avi -map 0:a -c:a copy -f spdif -
it does say "DD Digital" on the display. Must be something in the
stream AC3 perhaps?
Thanks so much!
By this, I can also confirm that MP3 or MP2 in SPDIF doesn't work for
me, which was the whole point of this experiment.
