I have tested video files with mp2 aac ac3 tracks on Dharma Rc1 and passthrough - work fine. But passthrough doesn't work with mp3 shoutcast streams. Does it feature of paplayer ?

u can decode aac with ur amplifier without converting to ac3? i mean ur decoder says it's aac?

I didn't find in specification for my Digital Home Cinema System Samsung HT-TKX500 aac decoding capability , that's why for me it's surprising - how it was possible. My Samsung doesn't have indicator for stream name.

Heh, I wondered where this feature actually went as I was using AAC passthrough in the Dharma Beta 1, and then the option for MP1/2/3/AAC passthrough dissapeared from the options in B2 and onwards.
Just noticed the ticket states the feature is due in 10.5, so I'm guessing they're saving it for the SVN/releases after Dharma official, perhaps along with Gnif's new audio engine Smile

Code:
<audiooutput>
        <ac3passthrough>true</ac3passthrough>
        <audiodevice>custom</audiodevice>
        <channellayout>7</channellayout>
        <customdevice>digital</customdevice>
        <custompassthrough>digital</custompassthrough>

sorry, I was wrong

My Home Cinema system doesn't support aac, and I couldn't listen through passthrough any stream in aac format

My sound card doesn't support sample rate 44100 - that's why I couldn't use passthrough for any streams with 44100 rate

My Home System doesn't support 48000 for mp3 that's why I couldn't listen anything with mp3 48000 streams

Today I can listen only ac3 and mp2 48000 streams through passthrough
