Dear Nick,
 
Yes, I do agree with what you said. Okay, It is better to  give an example to 
clarify the situation what I met. Basically, I get one SPDIF package, for 
example, 6144bytes for AC3 data, by call GetMapping. However, by following 
GetMapping call, I get all zero data and there is no any SPDIF header for these 
data. Thus:
1) These data are sent by Applications. But it looks like impossible because 
all data sent by application will be packaged, which means that I will get 
SPDIF Header.
Either,
2) DSound insert these data. But I really cannot understand why DSound will 
insert these data. According to DDK documents, if portclass do not have enough 
data send to miniport driver, it will
repeat the buffer which it holds. Therefore, I should not get all these zero
data while the repeated buffer.
 
BTW Can any application guys or Microsfot guys give comments?

Dear David!

I am Audio Filter designer at Sonic ( www.sonic.com ).
Yes, we do that with SPDIF: the beginning is real portion
of the spdif data ( the real amount is in data header),
the rest filled with 0's. The trick is that a whole pack
of data has the same number of audiosamples that
unencrypted ( PCM ) pack will have. So, can ignore all
these 0's.
