Just as a data point, I use AC3 pass-through to my Onkyo receiver when
viewing high-definition OTA shows, and would be very very sad if the option
went away :). I'm not sure I have any content with DTS encoding other than
DVDs.

I've been running SVN revision 7567 which has been remarkably stable.

Thanks...
