Summary: "File" audio output in non-real time?

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I've only just discovered the "file" output plugin
which saves audio streams to WAV files. I was just
wondering whether there's any way to make xine decode
streams as fast as possible, rather than in real time,
when this output plugin is selected (perhaps only when
the file is audio-only, or video out is "none"?) - if
audio_out="file", I'm not going to be able to hear the
audio, so there's no point playing it in real time.

I quite often need to convert files from non-freely
supported formats to Ogg Vorbis to be able to listen to
them on my portable player. Mplayer can output to WAV
file extremely quickly, but isn't Python-scriptable
(and xine is just nicer anyway! :-) )

Any ideas as to whether there's an existing way to do
this, or what needs to be done to allow it?

Thanks in advance,
 
Allan
