[QUOTE="tourettes, post: 673988, member: 10858"] Changing volume level on HTPC side should be always banned since it will just ruin the audio quality :P Since I wont use AC3 and no one has ever nagged about the issue :) I think there is no reason to encode the mono / stereo audio tracks into AC3 after resampling has been done. It will only slightly lower the audio quality. I'll change this behavior in next release. Actually it would be: mono or 2 channels -> resampled -> PCM multichannel -> resampled -> AC3 [/QUOTE]
