57 downloads on the latest audio renderer & dshowhelper binary and not that many replies? I guess the renderer is working quite nicely.
A quick update on the AC3 / SPDIF re-encoding on the fly. Proof of concept is working on my dev PC. I can now re-encode 2 channel audio to the AC3 instead of passing it directly as (L)PCM. AMP shows the "Dolby Digital 2.0" correctly and there is no pops nor clicks. But it is only POC and requires more work to get it to integrated with the multichannel code after it has been done.
Good. An update with the first version of on-fly Ac3 encoder , even with 2 ch only, can be usefull to test some kind of delay of that stream. As you known , I told you some posts ago, I switch my system with the open source driver for C-media 8768+/8770 , so I shutdown the ac3 on board features to be ready to compare the reclock encoding to this one. Infact with reclock there are some kind of issue about audio delay. With audio ffdshow the proper delay for ac3 encoding , even 2.ch, is about +20 - +30 ms to synch audio and video . Imho this could be a tuff challenge for the new audio renderer. Do you think already to modify the MP config program to allow us to select the proper audio devices ? now should be two . the default one, and the digital for the bitstreaming.
which Amp you choose then?
