[linux-dvb] Easy way to watch dvb and hear AC3 stream ?

[Stefan.Hagendorn@lindy.cc]

Hi all,

I just thought about an easy way to look tv and hear the ac3 stream on
those channel which supports it ..

Is it possible to switch with a programm like vdr to the channel and use
the wrong (AC3) APID - shut down VDR and pipe the output of the /dev/video
to a demux programm and then to a ac3 programm like "cat /dev/video |
pes_aud | ac3spdif | aplay" ??? Or afaik there is a dev in the new api for
only audio ?! .. this would mean no need to demux ....

And for recordings .. would it be possible to record with VDR and the wrong
APID a stream and replay it by piping the file through a demux programm and
send the video stream on the video device and the audio stream to the AC3
decoder ??

Btw I'm still use DVB 0.8.2

Just some thoughts

Greetings
Stefan
