ac3dec-0.6.1 Mon Mar 27 20:27:06 EST 2000
-Fix another 2.0 problem (rematrix was wrong).
-Fix the never resync on a bad crc bug.
ac3dec-0.6.0 Sat Mar 18 19:43:25 EST 2000
-New library interface
-Fix bug wrt coupling channels that was causing sound quality problems.
-Fix 2.0 mode problems (aka the I forgot to implement the phase flags bug).
-All around speed improvements (almost twice as fast)
-Improved robustness when fed bad data. The entire frame is checksummed before playback.
ac3dec-0.5.6 Tue Nov 16 00:37:34 EST 1999
-Irix support
-Alpha fixes
-Minor performance enhancements to downmix and imdct
-OpenBSD fixes
-extract_ac3 can now read from stdin
-Change output_linux to block on write instead of using the
ring buffer. Let me know if this causes/fixes any problems
ac3dec-0.5.5 Wed Aug 25 15:36:44 EDT 1999
-Fixed a cut and paste bug (argh!) in parse.c which potentially
screwed up delta bit allocation info.
-Martin Mueller <mamueller@topmail.de> informed me that I was missing
some corrections from the AC-3 errata document. It turns out that
I used an earlier version of the errata when I initially wrote ac3dec.
Fortunately the errata fix the outstanding bugs that I was pulling
my hair out on for a long time. Woohoo! Thanks Martin. Kudos to Dolby
Labs for keeping their documentation up to date as well.
-stereo downmixing (downmix.c) is now in. Matrix encoded surround
(Dolby Prologic Surround) should work too.
-clipping due to high level signals has been fixed. We normalize a
block of samples by its maximum absolute value if the max exceeds
the %100 digital level. This shouldn't be a problem, but for some
reason some channels have a dynamic range that exceeds [-1.0,1.0].
I blame the encoder :)
-Multiple track support in extract_ac3. Simply just give it the track
number you want [1,8] after the filename.
ac3dec-0.5.4 Thu Jul 29 16:55:10 PDT 1999
-Fixed a stupid bug with the coupling channel that was causing
high frequencies to be attenuated.
-Re-wrote the extract_ac3 tool.
-Added to a tool to verify the checksums on a given AC3 stream.

-Minor performance enhancements
ac3dec-0.5.2 Sun Jul 4 12:00:25 PDT 1999
-output_linux.c patch provided by Michael Holzt <kju@flummi.de>
ac3dec-0.5.1 Wed Jun 30 17:48:52 PDT 1999
-Compiles and dies gracefully under Linux now.
