Actually, if you search for "ac3*" you can still search.  This came up once before I believe.

EDIT: I mean the search legnth.  I have no idea about the AC3 Winamp Plugin.

The last version of in_ac3 I had was based on an early version of ac3decode and did anything but decode the AC3 correctly.

--edit--
Ok, this is apparently the same plugin. Same bugs, means 32khz and 44khz gets played back as 48khz, and it does clip like sh*t.

@Sawg & AgentMil,

Downloaded it and installed it..... it's not true their plugin can play .ac3
to play the .ac3 file, you have to download their player.

If anybody would want to create a new, better AC3 plugin for winamp two pretty good ac3 decoders come to mind :

- Azid from Midas. I ma not sure if the sources are available of if Midas would give them away. Try to contact him via Doom9.org  .

- Eugenes decoder from : http://eugene7777.tripod.com/

Blacksun was giving the link to Eugenes page recently in a thread about real time 5.1 Vorbis or 5.1 AAC to 5.1 AC3 encoding, using a special DSF that tateu wants to code  ( http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=27718 )

Hope this is helpful

So, it's been more than a year, has someone developed a good plug-in yet?
