madshi, could you please add a switch that just demuxes audio stream(s) in their state as they originally are (e.g. without applying any kind of delay and dialnorm removal etc.)? im hinting at those tv caps with corrupted ac3 (or dts) audio frames. in that case I always have to switch to xport to demux the track and then process it with delaycut. since this step cannot be avoided anyway, why not let eac3to demux them, 1 less program to use in between. there could be a message then like "just demuxing track without applying any delay or processing dialnorm etc." so that the user knows this stuff is still applied to the track and he then can get rid of it/fix it at a later time (e.g. after delaycut) if he likes to.

it just doenst make sense to go eac3to -> xport -> delaycut, when it could be eac3to -> eac3to -> delaycut. perhaps it would make sense to add a kind of -autoaudiodemux switch which then, in case that audio problems are detected and eac3to would have to abort, eac3to would directly start with the same command line again (or the audio track only then if it saves time and theres no thing as gaps), but this time then just as described as pure demuxing without any processing of that track.
