For me DTS over DVB card work. Only my receiver (yamaha rx-v595)
doesn't switch back to analog, i have to replay a dd-stream first.
 
Aside from that dvd-replay has really improved. Replay is smooth
now, before i had jerk every ~0.5sec while watching american pie 2.

FF/REW now works without picture-disturbance. FF don't crash my vdr
anymore (as far as i could test it), while RW still do.
Another difference to the previous versions is the cpu-load before
crashing (after REW), before it went up to 100% now it's normal
(~10%).

My choices in setup are gone after a vdr-restart (ac-3 replay etc.),
am i doing something wrong or are these options not stored in setup.conf ?

I don't know if you are in charge with this, but DD+DTS replay works,
only normal recordings from pro7 not. My receiver is showing 'digital'
but stays silent (i guess that's only dd2.0?). Some films from pro7
who contain other dd-code (5.1? / receiver shows 'DolbyDigital') like
some films work well.
