Hi Philip:

  You can try the following ks topology in the same filter.

PCM----->Vol-->Mute------------------------>pin 0

AC3 ---->Vol(if it's supported)--->mute---->pin 1

(Don't use and sum node to combine both streams before reaching output pins, 
which might confuse mmdev's Topology parser)

Thanks.

Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Vista and AC3

Hello.  I'm trying to get portcls wavecyclic based subdevices (S/PDIF optical 
and coax) to expose both PCM and AC3 dataranges simultaneously on the same pin 
factory on Vista (unlike XP, where I do not attempt this).  So far I'm not 
having any luck; only PCM or non-PCM appear simultaneously in KS Studio.

My rationale for trying this is because unlike XP, when a pin factory exposes a 
non-PCM format, it is displayed as an audio device in the audio CPL.  This is 
quite useless as far as I can see, because there is no configuration a user may 
do.  So I'm left with a situation where there are two devices shown in the 
audio CPL for each S/PDIF subdevice, where only one of them is configurable.

Is there a way to expose both AC3 and PCM dataranges on the same pin factory, 
or, failing that, to hide the non-PCM device in the audio CPL (unless there is 
a reason for it appearing there)?

thank you,

Philip Lukidis
