Yes, sorry, my bad. It was late yesterday.

I only listened a few seconds and only checked the top of the output file,
but unfortunately it starts with a few seconds of silence.

The 2.0 samples works here, too, (thx_2_0, for example, works as well). It
seems that ac3 stereo is ok.

What about the other samples on your PC?

BTW, I'm surprised that it seems ok to omit -acodec libmp3lame. I'm sure
ffmpeg complained needing this in the past.
