Andrew, Looking again at your Commandline i noticed that you do not explicitly mention the input/output audio codec. Instead you are relying on what the transcode offers automatically.
That might be a problem, because i think had to explicitly assign the required input and output codec for audio ( -y ffmpeg,raw -F mpeg4,ac3 ). Also I am curious, does the commandline i sent you work on your computer or does it get stuck as well? The Xine - the channels are swapped, so i had to swap the connectors in my computer - now the "swap" is obvious only in ALSA volume control, where by setting rear left/right controls i am actually changing volume to center or subwofer speakers... tried to change it in alsa, but did not figure out how to do it... My xine is some precompiled version. I'm too lazy to do it myself (and always geting anoyed when it reports errors which used to happen way too often back then when i was still optimistic about it ha ha) :) Cherio, Martina.
