[mythtv-users] MythVideo with AC3 output: popping noise on pause

[Nate Carlson]

May really be a mplayer question, but I figure someone on the list may've 
run into this, so I'll ask.  :) MythVideo's working great for video 
playback with AC3 output, using the following mplayer command:

mplayer -quiet -fs -zoom -slang en -vobsub <file>-subtitles -spualign 1 -monitoraspect 16:9 -ac hwac3,a52, -vo xv <file>

The only problem I have is that when I pause the video, I get a very loud 
popping noise through the speakers - does anyone happen to know how to fix 
that?

Also, is there any way to do simultaneous AC3 output out the optical 
connection and decode the AC3 output to the stereo output? I doubt it, but 
worth a shot.  :)
