Hello I have a problem when playing dolby digital streams encoded at 640kbps. This problem occurs with mplayer or 'ac3dec -C'. When playing 640 kbps stream, I hear spikes (or short scratchy sounds) 4 or 5 times per seconds on all channels. These spikes do not occur on silent moment, only on loud moment or musical moments. I use intel-hda driver with Realtek ALC883 chip on linux 2.6.24 (alsa 1.0.15). The dolby digital decoder is a quite old Yamaha DSP-A1. My setup works fine for AC3 stream with lower data rate (448 or 576 kbps) or with DTS streams. Does anyone have the same problem ? Can anyone share his experience with decoding 640kbps ac3 stream with oldish yamaha decoder ?
