I have "Use Dolby Digital = no" in VDR's settings. The channels I am recording do not have AC3/DTS. Also, the mpegs that I am trying to playback to not have AC3/DTS.

File information: "232568 2005-05-25 02:42 dvb-ttpci-01.fw" Then I just downloaded a new copy of 0x216e from yesterday and the mplayer plugin stopped working completely.
