Thanks for the reply. I am looking at the gt430 now. I have always had a preference for nvidia (just personal). I am just wondering if this is the bare minumum or if I should jump up a few models. What are your thoughts. I dont want to spend 300 bucks but the 430 if 50-60 dont mind spending 30-40 more if it is worthwhile and does something.

Any help is always appreciated.

Peter


ps. Thanks BluRay for the in depth guide and pics. Really helped out.

I'm having some issues with TMT5, due to my graphics card. I have a Asus E35M1-I Deluxe with integrated Radeon 6310. I wasn't able to bitstreaming from TMT5 to get HD audio. I'm currently trying a beta update that they claim to solve problem with bitstreaming in some boards. Still no success.

It's possible to bitstreaming HD audio when playing bd disc directly on bd-rom drive, or in this case I have to use and external player?

Regarding TMT5, when I press STOP, the software is closed and the active window turn back to XBMC? Is it possible to get this working like this or something like that?

Thanks for the help.

Best Regards,

Guile
what is wrong with 6310? i have asrock 350m1 with 6310, and it work fine with tmt5. the pre-eden in my signature can playback bd index.bdmv directly from bd-rom with dts-hd/truehd.

gt430 is all you need to bitstream hd audio or you can jump up a notch to low power consumption and slightly more powerful radeon hd6570.
here is the comparison- GeForce GT 430 vs Radeon HD 6570 (OEM) 1GB

What are your plans for the box?

If your going to game on the device go to a higher model.

If your going to simply use it for Video/Blu-Rays stick with the 430.

I currently have two 430s in each of my HTPC boxes and love them for the following reason:

1) No PCI Power required.
2) BitStream HD Audio in Windows
3) Supports 3d (in windows)

Dunno, but with PowerDVD11 I have HD audio... go figure...

So, installed version is not Dharma, but pre-Eden, right? Player is DVDPlayer, right? I'll try that when I get home.

Thanks!

you must have missed something for tmt5 not to work. tmt5 works on all 4 htpc that i built flawless.

to bitstream hd audio, you can follow these guides and you do not need any special playercorefactory or advancesetting code either. here are the guides- post #1 and some screen shots of pre-eden settings- post #11

you have to launch xbmc from pre-eden folder to see all the hd audio options.

I am sure 608 doesnt work.. but will try the realtec and see.

I did launch xbmc from the pre edn folder for sure.. is it getting mixed up with the current setup ??

as long as you launch xbmc from pre-eden folder, it is okay for the settings to mix up when you launch pre-eden for the first time. after you launched pre-eden, you can setup pre-eden to the proper settings and try not to launch dharma 10.1 anymore because it will mess up pre-eden profile.

to make sure that pre-eden is the main launcher, you can follow this post #11

Hi again bluray,

as my machine is new, I installed full pre-Eden and I'm getting HD audio.
My problem is TMT5. What version do you use?

And please, confirm that you use the default DVDPlayer to play bd disc on bd-rom.

Thanx!

this version- TotalMedia Theatre 5

i don't think that dvdplayer can playback bd because that is for dvd stuff. have you try to playback bd index.bdmv on bd-rom using pre-eden? it should work as is.
