Hello freevo fans,

my problem:
I've spent my sb live an Hoontech  I/O III extension with optical digital out. 
Passing through with mplayer to my ac3 receiver 
and the -ac hwac3 options works fine, if the audio stream of the movie is an ac3 track.
But if I enable the options permanently in local_conf.py, I get no sound 
from avi movies with non ac3 tracks (eg. lame mp3 encoded ones).
So I'm wondering if there is a solution for my problem.

My Ideas:
Some options should be configurable in the freevo frontend.
Maybe a lirc command could change the option with my remote.
Switching this during playback would be nice or maybe an auto detection by mplayer 
but this wouldn't be safe (I guess) - or fallback to non hwac3, when audio codec 
detection fails.

Any ideas or solutions around ? 

thanks,
Thomas

my system:
1.7GHZ Athlon XP, Gigabyte matx board, 384MB
dxr3,sb live with digital IO extension, Hauppauge WinTV
Realmagic Remote (great one, I love this remote because it's 
flawless, great range and very handy)

freevo 1.4, mplayer 0.92, using the dxr3 for tv out (selfcompiled sdl lib).
Base System: SuSE 8.0, Kernel 2.4.22 with acpi patches
