[vlc] DTS to S/PDIF problem

[David Nordenberg]

Hello

I'm trying to play a DTS encoded .wav file but I can't get any audio output
and the DTS indicator on my receiver just flashes like it is losing sync
with the audio stream all the time. I tried VLC 0.7.2, 0.8.1 and todays
nightly build. I have a home cinema receiver with DTS and DD decoder hooked
up with optical link to my Creative audigy 2 NX USB soundcard. Below is a
attached message log with a few seconds of playing. I'm using Windows XP SP2
with latest audigy 2 nx divers. Can't think of any more information you
might want. The DTS files works fine for me if I burn them and play them in
my DVD. The "audio is starving, playing silence" worries me :(

Best regards,
David Nordenberg
