Maybe a simple question, but is it possible to

Floris,
From what I understand, you can fit only 2 uncompressed audio channels
over a spdif connection. In order to handle more channels, it must be
compressed and then transferred as a data stream, like DTS or AC3.

Is there a way to encode a file on the fly?
I tried the -af lavcac3enc option in mplayer, but I get an error:
$mplayer chan-id.wav -ao alsa:device=spdif -af lavcac3enc=1

Interesting, I don't have that audio filter. Perhaps it isn't
compiled into my build of mplayer (ubuntu 8.10, 1.0rc2-4.3.2)
Do you have ffmpeg installed? It looks like that may be your problem.
