Himm, looks promising.
SmartSmurf, could you compile this code?

I think that would be too easy . Problems:
1. To may best knowledge, Samsung PCM audio engine is not bit-perfect.
2. Judging from Spdif Tx CSTAS1/CSTAS2 (channel status) register values, spdif output is allways set to 24bit in B-Series TVs for PCM sound.
3. Many receivers will not accept/recognize padded DTS stream (unless it's 44.1kHz 14-bit DTS format, usually used at DTS audio CDs).

2) & 3) should be relatively easy to fix; channel status registers can be modified; IEC 61937 encoding (wrapping) is easy to do in software, and not CPU-hungry.
1) is a really big obstacle; I don't know, maybe it's possible to patch the f**ing AIDA PCM microcode (or to bypass it somehow ?).

But perhaps there are other angles of attack..
