If you have hardware that supports HDMI (both your computer and your
receiver), you can use HDMI to transport uncompressed multi-channel
audio (up to 6-8 channels) and don't need the a52 plugin. Of course, if
you are stuck to older hardware without HDMI, that's no solution, but I
guess a lot of people will be able to use HDMI nowadays.
