I'm using xine 0.9.1 with em8300(dxr3) 0.8.2. After some hours of configurating these two beasts, I finally have nice video, and PCM digital sound (ProLogic). But, somehow I got the funny idea that I wanted to use my DD decoder in AC3 mode ;-). Now comes the $SUBJECT part. When I set a52_pass_through in xine the sound became slow!!!
It was DD5.1 indeed, but slow (and thus no sync)..
I mean, as I was listening to an old tape or something with wrong electronics. Has anyone else encountered this strange phenomenon?? I wouldn't think that my box was to slow (Duron 750, 512 Megs of RAM, kernel 2.4.9, H+ mpeg decoder).
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The sound speed needs to be set to 48khz for ac3 mode. This has been fixed in the driver in cvs.

Thanks a lot! And is there a chance that this fixed stuff will come out in a new release in a few weeks? One more thing: This morning I was experimenting with some row VOB files (in xine), and unencrypted DVD-s (playing with the xine-dvd plugin instead of xine-d4d /css/). The result: perfect synchronized audio and video!!! How could this be? Could there also be a problem with the 4d4 plugin?

It will eventually be in a new release, but I don't know when yet. I don't know why another input plugin would work differently.

Yes, yes, yes!! It's working now. I did a cvs checkout (dancing with the devil ;-), copied em8300_audio.c (or something like that) into the 0.8.2 dir, did a make install in modules and... AC3 was alive! Thankx a lot for your excellent work! I'm almost ready to completely kill my "other" OS(?).
