For now, i use a52dec for dump wav audio into 6 channels and encode it into 
ogg. The ac3 stream : ~2,2M, the ogg stream (6 channels) ~300k !!!. 

So we  can have divx+dolby...


so after, just decode the 6 channels from ogg to software decoder with dolby 
5.1 (six channels), but not suported for hardware decoder(can be a 
problem)....
