Hi Mosu,

You're sort of right in saying that with ffdshow you can either bitstream truehd or decode it to lpcm, so why would you need the ac3 core.

One thing though... how does that relate if you're using spdif for instance? I didn't think spdif could handle the bandwidth of truehd decoded to lpcm, hence the need for hdmi?

I'd love the ability to include the ac3 core as an automatic fallback (without having to select another audio track).

Thanks!
