I love the fact that for a file that's so difficult to download, it seems to have had enough of downloads!
Yet only you and DDD said have bothered to say thanks and/or report back with any findings Wink

I tested it and although it works, it's just not redy for me yet... I use the features and plugins of Eden far more than HD Audio.

I'm still waiting on bluray to say thanks too... and an apology... Wink

c'mon bluray it's Christmas... You have to be nice! Jesus won't be happy with you for making me feel sad Sad

heh heh heh Laugh

I followed your link and found it fine - it's exactly the same as the last build I did as well.

I'm more an audio guy than a movie guy (although I have plenty of each) but I'm just chomping at the bit to get high-def audio in XBMC. Not so much TrueHD and DTS-MA (although they'll be nice). I have a large and growing collection of SACD and DVDA rips as well as many 24/96 LP rips.

Right now I bounce between XBMC and Foobar depending on whether I'm playing MP3's or higher-def stuff. XBMC is about the slickest front-end out there, and if we get AE, binary-addons (like Foobar for different input streams, DSP, etc) and an easily workable SQL back-end then XBMC is just gonna kick ass!!

On another note, it's a big sandbox, hope we all get along lol.

Why not? Are you having problem with bitstreaming when using it?

If I cannot download it, I cannot try it and I cannot thank you! Smile

When I clicked your link, this is what I got:

When I clicked download yesterday, it took me to this link:

When I clicked download today, it took me to this link:

Is your download link not working with Google Chrome?

- DDDamian - 2011-12-08 04:40

@bluray - just below your first screenie (right where u covered it up) it says "Click here to start download from Sendspace" with a little harddrive icon. It will start your download. Yes it will ask if you want ILivid as well (it's benign and just like JDowloader).

I had more success with Wanilton's build from July 15th (gnif broke a few things in his continued work). If you go to the AudioEngine thread I posted a link to that Windows build - it's on the last page or two.....

Anything else is baiting man.

Thanks Patrick, but not playing nicely with me either (and did I say I don't have a Pioneer receiver - its an Onkyo Laugh

) - HD Audio is certainly no where near ready in this condition.

Thanks again

Thanks for very great help! :-)
But I still don`t get smooth sound. It changes very quick between DTS-HD and DTS.
It looks like it is worst when it is much different sounds, if you know what I mean.

Yes, I have configured it in stereo in Win control panel, like your pictures.
Inside XBMC it`s like your pictures to.
I have even uninstalled the drivers and deactivated the sound card that is on board my main board.
This still don`t help.

Here I paste a link to my log, I have tried both with and without DXVA2, starting without.

With DXVA2 it works better I think and the CPU load was much less.
I will try more, but is there anything to see in the log that can help?

Okay, thanks. I'll try it later.

I'm using July version since July. I can bitstream fine but I want to see what is added in September version. For now, I'll continue to use the July version till Gnif release a new and better version.

I noticed you have a alot of errors with ffmpeg. I'm not 100% sure if download a new ffmpeg from here would help, but you can try it and you can always un-install later. ffmpeg.

From what I've seen September's a little worse (for an end-user) than July, specifically for DTS-MA but YMMV.

Cheers.

Do you really read nothing on here at all

Downloading ffmpeg will resolve nothing of the users problems - xbmc uses its own propietary ffmpeg build and if anything will cause more issues than it resolves. If you don't know how to resolve a users problems from a debug log - would it not be better to say that you can't rather than blindly stabbing at a solution - please.

I don't have the answer either - before someone asks - and have little knowledge of a debug log,

Petergulbra - perhaps it is time to accept that for some users - yourself obviously included - this old and possibly the newer build just isn't suitable - despite other users claims of flawless playback.

There is a reason why it hasn't made the cut for Eden and why there aren't any official builds - its just not ready. As much as I mirror your desire to have HD Audio natively in xbmc at this time its just not robust enough for public use and the reason why the Dev (gnif) hasn't released any builds himself.
