[pulseaudio-discuss] [RFC] [PATCH 0/1] VLC pass-through to PulseAudio

[Colin Guthrie]

'Twas brillig, and Rémi Denis-Courmont at 27/09/11 18:49 did gyre and
gimble:
> 	Hello all,

> The following patch makes VLC negotiates S/PDIF pass-through with
> PulseAudio for A/52 and DTS audio tracks. This requires PulseAudio
> client library version 1.0.0 (or later) to compile, and a similarly
> recent PulseAudio server to actually work.
> 
> I do not have S/PDIF speakers, so I was only able to test that normal
> PCM playback and PCM fallback work. So the probability that this does
> not work properly is about 99%.

The actual patch didn't make it to this list for some reason but you can
grab it here:

I'll try and do some testing in the near future. Great work Rémi!
