Hi again... thanks for the information.

What is more interesting about this audio is that whether it plays ok or not depends on the satellite receiver used. The user who is giving me these samples has 2 receivers, one of which is able to decode the audio and the other is not. So, I asked for new samples. Here are 2 recordings: One is made with the "good" receiver where audio is decoded fine, and the other with the "bad" receiver where audio is not decoded. The audio in this channel is indeed AC3.

ffplay from the "good" recording:
Code:
Stream #0:1[0x7e6]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 192 kb/s
ffplay from the "bad" recording:
Code:
Stream #0:1[0x7e6](eng): Audio: ac3 ([129][0][0][0] / 0x0081), 0 channels, fltp

The exact same thing happens for him on a different channel as well. So here's another pair of recordings, one with audio ok ("good" receiver), the other with no audio ("bad" receiver). The audio in this channel is MP2.

ffplay from the "good" recording:
Code:
Stream #0:1[0x1f5]: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16p, 192 kb/s
ffplay from the "bad" recording:
Code:
Stream #0:2[0x1f5]: Audio: mp3 ([4][0][0][0] / 0x0004), 0 channels
