[vdr] DVD-AC3-Playback

[Andreas Schultz <aschultz@warp10.net>]

Hi all,

I'm resending this mail, since it appears to have been lost.

There have been to much complaints about DVD AC3 playback. So i had
quick look at it.
There appears indeed to be a problem with the way how DVD AC3 frames are
sent to external decoders.

Everyone with problems, could you please try to modify line 772
(cPlayBuffer::PlayExternalDolby()) in dvbapi.c.

orignal:

int written = b[8] + 9; // skips the PES header

should be changed to:

int written = b[8] + 13; // skips the PES header

This will most likely break AC3-out for DVB streams.

Please report your findings ASAP especialy wether this change indeed
breaks DVB AC3 or not.

Thanks

     Andreas
