Hello !
I am coding AC3 passthru in PC.
My configuration are
Stream with AC3 --> Decoding Video with FFDShow / AC3 passthru ---> SDI output (decoded video and AC3) *SDI Card is in my PC.*
If anyone has experience of AC3 passthru, please send me simple code for the above configuration.
:thanks:

You mean you want to send AC3 using S/PDIF passthrough to an S/PDIF output to connect to another device (like a home theater)?
What is an "SDI card"?

SDI is a professional, high bandwidth audio / video interconnect, usually used in broadcast and post-production houses to link equipment over RG-6 coaxial cables using BNC connectors.
As far as carrying AC3 over SDI - I wasn't aware such a thing was possible :) Multichannel PCM, certainly. If there is a way to carry AC3 over SDI, you would likely have to purchase the SMTPE specs. I don't know of any software that can do this as part of DirectShow.

MiSfit We purchased SMTPE documentation. But it's information is not enought. So I need simple sample code. Do you have any idea?

How exactly do you manage to confuse the report post with the edit button?
