HI guys,
I have a toshiba laptop from 2011 that I'm trying to bitstream hd audio to my yamaha receiver. However, when I look at encoded formats under the sound device it doesnt list dts hd or dolby hd as one of them. it just lists regular dts and dolby digital. Is there a driver or something I can download to make it pass hd audio thru my hdmi or is the hardware restricted to just regular dts? I tried downloading the intel interface engine driver but that didnt do anything. The laptop is a intel core i3 toshiba from around 2011. When I go to sound under the control panel, it lists my tv as a device for sound. I try to use WASAPI under this tv name in xbmc but I get no sound. everyting else will work sound wise on xbmc but the HD sound, so clearly its not passing the hd sound thru. Any suggestions or advice?
Your laptop's GPU must support HD audio bitstreaming. If it lists DTS or Dolby Digital only it might be possible that your GPU is not up to the task.

Should be the correct device.

I did at first and changed it to wasapi because I forgot settings weren't right. Do u see anything? If you look further in the log it is changed
No. Nothing there that uses WASAPI.
Seems you did not even enable passthrough at all (Advanced Settings hierarchies).
Ok I will start fresh again and show another log
I am using wasapi and have passthrough enabled with hd dts sound
This log is too big to paste its saying
then restart xbmc and play the file again, please make sure you read:
Debug Log <- it tells howto do it.
