[linux-dvb] Re: AC3 on multiple soundcards

[Ralf Bauer <RBauer@quark.de>]

Well, there is AC3dec which could be used for that, but I guess the real
problem will be the exact synchronization of the outputs.
To get a real surround sound, the waves from each loudspeaker must arrive
exactly at the same time at your ear. That's why you have to carefully
adjust the distance to each loudspeaker in your DD-receiver.

Understand me right, it is possible to do this, but it is not easy.

Ralf.

Moin
I've got two soundcards.a soundblaster live and some onboard device. That 
gives me 6 mono channels, which is exactly the number of channels needed for

ac3.is there some tool to split ac3 to 3 stereo streams that could be played

using 3 amplifiers?Or just a tool that can split ac3 in specified channels. 
Did anybody try to do so? 
thanks Jonas
