This provides a new method for enabling spdif passthrough. The old
method via --ad (--ad=spdif:ac3 etc.) is deprecated. The deprecated
method will probably stop working at some point.
This also supports PCM fallback. One caveat is that it will lose at
least 1 audio packet in doing so. (I don't care enough to prevent this.)
(This is named after the old S/PDIF connector, because it uses the same
underlying technology as far as the higher level protoco is concerned.
Also, the user should be renamed that passthrough is backwards.)
