in el_surround.cpp line 74 (setting wnd in loop with sqrt) there is a 0.5
commented out. uncomment it so that the 0.5 factor is included. I suspect
the clicking is float to short conversion issues. this will decrease the
overall gain of the upmixer. let me know if it works for you. everything Ive
tested with shows the current value ok but more testing will prove/disprove
this.
