[vlc-devel] [PATCH] decoder fallback when the aout fails during playback

[Thomas Guillem]

This patch fixes a regression introduced by my last proposal about AC3/DTS
packetizer/decoder rewrite. The last updated version can be found here
https://github.com/tguillem/vlc/commits/pkt-6

Indeed, if the user changes from a S/PDIF aout to a PCM one, the aout will be
restarted but there won't be any filter to convert AC3/DTS to PCM, therefore
the aout will fail. This patch try to fix this issue by reloading the decoder
module when the aout ask for it (in order to load a PCM decoder).

Regards,
Thomas.
