Hi. Were you able to reproduce with the material I provided?

[andrewlewis]

Sorry for the long delay. The provided stream has some AC-3 syncframes within the E-AC-3 stream. We had another report of the same underlying bug recently with a suggested fix, so please look out for a fix here soon.

Excellent. Thanks for the update. FYI - I can reproduce this problem with every DD+ 7.1 track I have...

Happy New Year!

This should now be fixed on the development branch. Please let us know if you can still reproduce the issue.
