Comment 43 for bug 197957

Kip,
I haven't looked at the diff in the xbmc bug, but I believe all the code for an ALSA plugin can be found there. I've found several descriptions of a52plug, so I think instead of what you mean where. I've got to run to a Funeral, but in the mean time someone should email the XBMC project asking what happened to this code. XBMC has been reorganized since this patch and I'm unsure of where this code may have moved to... In any case there experience with this code is invaluable.

What I don't understand is why this code skipped over the ALSA project, could it be that some where in the mail archives is a copy of this patch? Perhaps we could ask Google if they have backups.
