aliciaviola:
MediaCenter can handle nearly all formats. Only one isn't possible at the moment:
I got an eac3 audio multi channel file but it can't be opened.

aliciaviola:
No answer? Is it planned to include this format in the future?
Frank

Hendrik:
It should generally work. Can you offer some more details about the exact file type?

aliciaviola:
This file, for instance. No chance...

I downloaded the sample file.  Indeed it plays with VLC and at least one other player.  MC does not know what to do with it.

But I find this file confusing.  It is a surround sound audio format that is normally found in a video file.  AC3 is "movie audio".  But this is a stand alone stream that is not in a container.  It is "raw".  Where would this even have come from?  It seems like this should be inside an MKV container or an MP4 container or something.

Perhaps there is something I'm missing.  As I said, this is an odd format for me and maybe I just don't know about some common source or use of this kind of raw AC3 file.

Brian.
