[mythtv-users] No audio from mythvideo except from digital sources

[Jason McMillon]

Of course that was the issue. However, after uncommenting the additional
lines, I get the following errors from xine when playing ripped dvd iso's:

audio_decoder: error, unknown buffer type: 01060000
audio_decoder: error, unknown buffer type: 04000000
audio_decoder: error, unknown buffer type: 02000000

I just ignore the errors and hit the play button and all is well (I assume
because xine is passing the raw AC3 to my external receiver).

Thanks for your help with my ignorance...
