? Are you asking how to get an AC3 output to go to an AC3 amp, or just trying to get sound out of channels with AC3 audio?
If the former, it depends on your sound card/ computer. If the latter, you should be able to get audio on AC3 channels using either the VisionDTV program from the Twinhan site or using the DVBAPPs program, and probably other programs. It may depend on what codecs are in your system from other programs, I'm not sure, but it works fine on my computer with both those programs. Only other program I have loaded that might have brought in other codecs is a WinDVD DVD player.
One thing though, if you are using the VisionDTV (or the older WinDTV) from Twinhan, when the program searches, finds and stores channels, I've found that it may not "find" the audio PID on AC3 channels. I've had to add them manually on a couple channels.
