OK, I just found out that I can get mplayer/SMPlayer to work with AC3/DD/DTS via SPDIF (passthrough) on the same file by doing this...
mplayer -ao alsa:device=iec958 -ac hwac3 ExampleMovie.mkv Alternatively, I just added the line in SMPlayer under Options > Preferences > Advanced > Options for MPlayer > Options... -ao alsa:device=iec958 -ac hwac3 So hopefully that's some kind of hint for the VLC dev's :) Thanks~ -- VLC doesn't output 5.1 (AC3/DD/DTS) via SPDIF (passthrough) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/567707 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
