I apologize if this is a known problem but the thread is long and the changes are fast

I have a couple of mkv files with a 768k DTS 1.0 (core only no -HD MA) stream in them (old ~1968-1970 films that originally had mono PCM audio). These DTS audio streams don't decode with LAV Audio on PC with a 2.0 speaker system. I can bitstream it with LAV Audio on a different PC that goes to a receiver with 5.1 configuration. I can decode the DTS 1.0 stream to the 2.0 speakers when I use MPC's internal DTS codec or AC3Filter just fine, but it's a total no-go with LAV. MPC just hangs and never starts playing the file at all. Interestingly the Arcsoft decoder from TMT2 (1.1.0.8) can't handle it either. At least when I try to decode the stream to PCM or wav with eac3to, it throws an error and quits.

So is this just me or is it a bug?

Oh, and stellar job on the filters in general. Incredible effort.
