Weird. > > I'm sure the TV only accepted -R and not -C (or -P) with the same ac3 file. But I'm confused since I was quite sure -R would *decode* ac3 to PCM and then send it in LPCM format. I used alsa-tools 1.0.20, should I try with a Git version ? Sorry to ask this, but are you sure the data is sent as-is (in ac3 format) with only audio bit changed ? It sounds effectively completely weird to me, because moreover my Amp is showing LPCM format with -R (my TV would downsample the 5.1 AC3 signal to LPCM ??) >> I may try again on XP/Vista tomorrow to be really sure it works on them. >> >> When changing play mode AES0 changes from 0x00 to 0x02 and AES1 to AES3 stay >> the same (0x82,0x00,0x02 if I remember well) >> > > Note that the setup you made before ac3dec will be overridden anyway. > And during ac3dec playback, the status bits are locked and can't be > changed by others. > > Ok that's what I thought since ac3dec show AES bytes and they depend only on command line options and not iecset done before. > Takashi > > > Stephane. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
