Hello
I have a video with two audio streams, the original film's sound track plus a music alternative. (The music is Dark Side of the Moon over the top of the Wizard of Oz video.)
When the "audio stream" is set to use the original ("AC3"), both the audio and the video play well.
But when it's set to use the alternative ("5 Channel"), not only is there no audio but the video judders an unusable amount. Turning over to this alternative stream immediately gives not sound and the video runs at double pace for a few seconds before freezing. Then 10 seconds later it repeats this cycle for a moment. It sucks.
I know that the video file is OK because I have listened to it on Windows an d it's just fine.
Why can XBMC (installed from this image: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=67819) not play the alternative audio?
I have looked in the wiki and it says nothing useful on this setting.
Thanks in advance
