@doldi - your assumption is wrong. At least for anything SPDIF and PT related you HAVE TO set the channels to 2.0 - SPDIF can only handle 2 channels and the 5.1 information is encoded in these two channels. So AC3 transcoding will still work and you can enjoy 5.1AAC and 5.1FLAC as 5.1AC3 streams even if speakers are set to 2.0. I know this is a bit confusing, but that is the correct configuration.
edit: so in short:
- set speakers to 2.0
- enable passthrough
- enable AC3 PT
- enable AC3 transcoding
- enable DTS PT
once done, everything SPDIF can handle should work and you'll also get any other 5.1 format converted to AC3 5.1
