Bug Description
Got a few movies recorded as MPEG-TS stream from satellite, one of audio streams is AC3. At the beginning this stream contains 2 channels and then switches to 6 channels.
totem-gstreamer fails to make a correct switch to 6 channels, it continues to decode stream as it is stereo.
FYI test results in other frameworks/players:
1) totem-xine and xine - switches correctly
2) mplayer - failure, keeps playing stereo
3) vlc - fails to switch
Everything tested in Ubuntu 8.04, all players output to pulseaudio. MPC/ffdshow under windows also decodes stream correctly.
Attaching sample AC3 file, demuxed and cut from original TS container. Switch from 2 to 6 channels occurs on 17th second.
