But does it allow for AC3 passthrough at the same time? Do you have some
AC3 sound source? Have you tried say HD DVB-S or perhaps DVD replayed
via the internal Myth DVD player (I guess that one would use the AC3
passthrough but I use xine so I don't know).


If I am not misunderstanding you, yes dmix allows for anything to be sent through the spdif connection. Myth TV uses mplayer/xine to play DVD's depending how you set it up. I am using xine for mine as I like having the menus. It plays both DTS/DD and works well. Occasionly I run into a DVD where it switches from stereo to DTS/DD and it causes Xine to say the Audio Card is in use, so I am not sure if you can be playing an MP3 or something at the same time as running a AC3 soundtrack from a movie, I can try that this weekend. It surely can play multiple MP3s/MythTV recording at the same time over SPDIF though.
