Question for the DSP gurus:
How hard would it be to implement an AC3 encoder as a LADSPA plugin that
could be used in an ALSA config to encode stereo and 5.1 sources on the
fly? Many Windows drivers seem to contain one, and it would be a nice
response to the naysayers on LKML who doubt the power of ALSA.
Have you seen my ac3jack? It needs some work, but can act as a bridge
between jack and alsa (indirectly now, directly soon) and uses the ac3
encoder from ffmpeg.

If pushed, I will fix it up as planned....
