Quick note on this patch...
If you are sending a Dolby Digital bitstream to your surround
processor, and changing the timestretch setting results in silence,
just pause the video for a split-second.
At least with my pre-amp, it gets confused when the data encoding
suddenly switches from Dolby Digital to regular old PCM. Pausing the
video for a split-second, is enough for it to reset itself and process
the PCM audio data correctly.
