(1) AC3 and DTS audio are played through DirectShow. You need an AC3 parser filter (like AC3Filter) and a decoder filter like FFDShow. Configure these to either send data to your outboard decoder via SPDIF, or decode and output to your speakers connected to your soundcard.
(2) RealAudio files with the .ra extension will be played natively in Media Center if appropriate DirectShow filters are present. You will need to install "Real Media Splitter" (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=82303&package_id=87719) and a Real Media Decoder such as FFDShow (http://ffdshow.sourceforge.net/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Getting+ffdshow).
This list is subject to change.
To make sure your installation is capable of playing all the available media formats, periodically select the "Check for Updates..." item on the <Help> menu.
