Full Version: Output silence when movie is paused

I have XBMC on my Linux machine connected via HDMI to the receiver. My receiver takes about 2 seconds to detect the incoming audio format (PCM vs DTS). When I pause a video in XBMC, then press play again, I miss a little bit of the audio. It would be great if XBMC would output silence in the same format as the movie while paused.
You can already do this, see Advancedsettings.xml#.3Caudio.3E (wiki)

There is a tag streamsilence which you set to 1 so:

Code:
<advancedsettings>
<audio>
<streamsilence>1</streamsilence>
</audio>
</advancedsettings>

In Gotham there will be a new GUI settings system with this included.
