-The codec status table is a
-complete list of all supported codecs, regenerated daily.
-Some binary codecs for use with MPlayer are available in the
-download section
-of our homepage.

-If you have a Win32 codec which is not supported yet, please read the
-Win32 codec HOWTO

-Software AC-3 decoding
-
-
-This is the default decoder used for files with AC-3 audio.
-
-
-
-The AC-3 decoder can create audio output mixes for 2, 4, or 6 speakers.
-When configured for 6 speakers, this decoder provides separate output of
-all the AC-3 channels to the sound driver, allowing for full "surround
-sound" experience without the external AC-3 decoder required to use the
-hwac3 codec.
-
-
-
-Use the option to select the number of output
-channels. Use for a stereo downmix. For a 4
-channel downmix (Left Front, Right Front, Left Surround and Right Surround
-outputs), use . In this case, any center
-channel will be mixed equally to the front channels.
- will output all the AC-3 channels as they are
-encoded - in the order Left, Right, Left Surround, Right Surround, Center and
-LFE.
-
-
-
-The default number of output channels is 2.
-
-
-
-To use more than 2 output channels, you will need to use OSS, and have a
-sound card that supports the appropriate number of output channels via the
-SNDCTL_DSP_CHANNELS ioctl. An example of a suitable driver is emu10k1
-(used by Soundblaster Live! cards) from August 2001 or newer (ALSA CVS is
-also supposed to work).
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Hardware AC-3 decoding
-
-
-You need an AC-3 capable sound card, with digital out (S/PDIF). The card's
-driver must properly support the AFMT_AC3 format (C-Media does). Connect
-your AC-3 decoder to the S/PDIF output, and use the option. It is experimental but known to work with C-Media
-cards and Soundblaster Live! + ALSA (but not OSS) drivers and DXR3/Hollywood+
-MPEG decoder cards.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Hardware MPEG audio codec
-
-
-This codec (selected by ) passes through MPEG audio
-packets to hardware decoders, such as the ones found in full-featured DVB cards
-and DXR2 adapters.
-Don't use it in combination with any other audio output device
-(such as OSS and ALSA) that isn't able to decode it (you will hear
-only white noise).
