[xine-devel] libac3 update

[Guenter B. <bar...@st...>]

Hi Michel, hi xine developers,

first of all: many thanks to walken for his great work on libac3. The
latest version of his code is now included in the xine 0.5 tree.
Multichannel support is no longer a quick hack on the xine side but fully
supported by the "official" libac3 - nice job :-)

libac3 now also supports basic volume support, you can adjust this by
editing

ac3_level:100

in your .xinerc - the value is given in %.

Michel, here is a small bugfix, I think you got the parentheses wrong

Keep up the great work!
