+AC-3 audio decoder.
+
+This decoder implements part of ATSC A/52:2010 and ETSI TS 102 366, as well as
+the undocumented RealAudio 3 (a.k.a. dnet).
+
+@subsubsection AC-3 Decoder Options

+@table @option
+
+@item -drc_scale @var{value}
+Dynamic Range Scale Factor. The factor to apply to dynamic range values
+from the AC-3 stream. This factor is applied exponentially.
+There are 3 notable scale factor ranges:
+@table @option
+@item drc_scale == 0
+DRC disabled. Produces full range audio.
+@item 0 < drc_scale <= 1
+DRC enabled.  Applies a fraction of the stream DRC value.
+Audio reproduction is between full range and full compression.
+@item drc_scale > 1
+DRC enabled. Applies drc_scale asymmetrically.
+Loud sounds are fully compressed.  Soft sounds are enhanced.
