Sorry to double post, but as an update to this the Reel Multimedia guys have found that it appears that the AC3 track is currently being broadcast in a PES packet stream with an ID of 0xc0, which could be incorrect and AC3 should be broadcast with an id of 0xbd. Perhaps some other set top boxes ignore the id and process the stream based on content, but it causes severe problems with VDR, including stuttering picture and no audio. Klaus, do you have any idea of what they have done and whether it can or should be fixed in VDR? The RMM guys believe the fix should occur in VDR and not the eHD driver, which sounds right if other users with xine/ffmpeg are also suffering. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
