Since ntuxplayer is only for replay, so is ac3 support. I am just using liba52 to turn ac3 into lpcm. It is only in ntuxplayer (maybe later in tuxplayer) and has nothing to do with the driver. ntuxplayer can already play ac3 if the hardware supports it (like margi or em8400), so the software decoding is only for cards that don't support it (like the DVB-s or maybe others). Since it is downsampling it also doesn't make any sense to record ac3 and replay it with ntuxplayer, since you won't improve anything. In short, this only helps you with viewing vobs. AFAIK vdr can already do that. I am doing this in my free time (Ralph and I are on vacation till January), so it has nothing to do with my job. Well, not in an official sense. This can also be seen as an indication that even if convergence will not make it (which we won't hope for), we will still work on the drivers, time and resources permitting.
