! The AC3 via S/PDIF does not work with my soundcard
! ---------------------------------------------------
  
! The AC3 via S/PDIF is supported by ALSA only for soundcards
! with Trident 4DWaveNX and YMF chips. So if you have a
! soundcard with one of these chips use
  
- xine -S -A alsa 
  
! The -S switch disables the internal AC3 decoder. For very 
! slow machines you could improve video playback (without
! sound) when you start xine as
  
! xine -S -A null

! can xine produce 4-/5-channel surround audio output?
! ----------------------------------------------------
! 
! yep, xine can do that using OSS or ALSA drivers, provided that
! the driver supports it. On startup xine tells you what modes are
! supported by your audio driver, e.g:
! 
! audio_oss_out : supported modes are mono stereo (4-channel not enabled in .xiner
! c) (ac3-pass-through not enabled in .xinerc)
! 
! on this machine 4-channel surround would be possible. However,
! since xine cannot detect if there are actually speakers connected
! to the additional channels, you'll have to manually enable this mode
! in your ~/.xinerc:
  
! four_channel:1
  
  
! what about ac3 output via spdif to an external ac3 decoder?
! -----------------------------------------------------------
  
! xine can do that too. Pretty much the same story as for 4-/5-channel
! surround here, you'll have to enable it in your ~/.xinerc:
  
+ ac3_pass_through:1
