How do I install AudioEngine, I'm trying to pass through bit perfect FLAC to SPDIF with XBMC not doing any processing.
Is it possible yet or still early days for AudioEngine.
Cheers.
Just install the release version of 12. It's part of XBMC and not a separate component.
AudioEngine is part of frodo - you have frodo you have AE.
It is still a work in progress though. The wsnipex ppa repo will get you the latest code, which will include recent improvements.
I don't have Frodo as it doesn't support my GPU.

You are doing something wrong.

I don't understand, what did I do wrong?
You forgot to update to frodo!

Your GPU is sufficient for Frodo and you are already running a beta of Frodo, at least according to your sig.
Thers a difference in between not to run apt-get upgrade not to actually run the xbmc upgrade commands which after the fact some users reporting video driver broke again.
so what is posted in principle should work however to make sure it is made sure.
Code:
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties pkg-config
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-xvba
sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc.bin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc.bin
And that should work as long as the video drivers are not upgraded. Not that Im a ATI user anyway so what I know is 100% theoretical and based on user feedback were ATI is concerned.

My apologies, I obviously didn't copy and paste that code properly.
Thanks.
There is a "subtle" difference between Xbmc and xbmcbuntu. Frodo does work on your card if you have a proper GFX driver (default fglrx in ubuntu 12.04 or fglrx-legacy from AMDs website in >=ubuntu 12.04).
You will need the xvba branch though.
give us the output of
apt-cache policy xbmc
dpkg -l fglrx*
