Note to anyone else that stumbles in here.
Not only should you disable volume control also make sure to disable
crossfade or you'll ended up with static junk at track changes :)

It seems silly you need to jam the ac3 and dts data into another
container that wasn't intended to have that data.
Why cant the squeezeboxes just stream dts and ac3 straight through? :P
is there a file format for dd or dts ? A squeezebox does not
No and no and no.
Btw spdiff can not carry 5.1 pcm in any aplication its not in the
standard it does not exist .
an adition to the standard is that spdiff can carry lossy bitstreams if
5.1 for home cinema but it is AC3 dolby digital or DTS , but that is not
lossles discrete pcm channels .
yea been reading the spdif python script stuff. Just getting through the
ac3/dts rips now, I had originally ripped the MLP sources.
I forgot you cant do 5.1 PCM over spdif, everything else is connected
by HDMI these days :)

I've tackled this in the past, and I recall it not being as easy as I'd
hoped. But frankly, as I think about I think it was my ripper that was
the problem. DVDAudioExtractor ended up going the job very well,
combined with the Python script.
There are threads on this topic elsewhere in the
