AC3 decoding

Ok...

Its NOT decoding AC3 - as you may expect to see - but feeding the SPDIF in (ProFX SRC) to prologica - and getting 5.1 out from this sounds quite good, excelent seperation and upmixes stereo to 5.1 (Tv, winamp etc..) also - if theres other 'ac3' decoding somewhere in KX, I guss I havent found it. I imagine its using a plugin that I removed from DSP.. ??

Im watching 'ARK' (I didnt realize it was anime - or a cartoon - whatever when I netflixed it.. but its pretty cool movie anyway.)

Aside from the skips from the disk itself - its solid sync 45 mins into it...
So yes - Im gonna call this as working - using prologica to decode stereo to surround.

Yes - I just watched a whole DVD and (besides a rather nasty scratch I has to skip past) its aydio synced perfect with the video..

My DVD has a choice to output PCM or DTS - DTS DOES NOT WORK.
But yes - KX decodes 5.1 PCM streams - no sign of sync problems on second disc either.
I have 3 I can test with...

Update:

Also - In KX24/96 router - I needed to break connection between 10Kx and I2S output.

Also - I mis-spoke earlier - Prological requires a low-pass filter also for LFE - as prologica doesnt have a LFE output. but it still sounds great.
