Comment(by foobum at gmail.com):

 Replying to [comment:26 davatar at comcast.net]:
 > Correction to the above, the patch mostly works as long as the "max
 channels" is set to 5.1, then all sound is 5.1 AC3 encoded. However I get
 digital clipping and (no volume control) when getting upmix from analog TV
 recordings.

 The timestretched, stereo AC-3 'issue' is intended behaviour on the basis
 that there's no point reencoding stereo material. You should have a valid
 default device defined (even if it's the the same as the passthru device).
 I might change this.

 I've never experienced any clipping - could you provide a sample and some
 logs?

 Software volume control can be found at #6279
