I'm ok with normal stereo over S/PDIF. It would be cool if pulse could dynamically switch. When I'm playing music use stereo on S/PIDF. Then if I start a movie switch over to a52. a52 consumes 50% of one of my cores re-encoding music as aac. So I didn't want to always use it. Even cooler would be if pulse could "mix on-demand". If the movie is playing and there are no other audio sources, just send the aac stream as pass-through. Only trigger a52 if mixing was required. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl at gmail.com
