Did you install DDDamian's AudioEngine build prior to installing Daniela's patched Eden?

I'm almost sure that AudioEngine inserts lines for MP3 Pass through in the guisettings.xml file and doesn't remove them when uninstalled.
Open guisettings.xml (in your userdata folder) and search for MP3 Pass through . Then change the flag to false. Do the same for MP1 and MP3 as well

Hope it helps Smile

Hi, for my fist post on this forum my question is : is it possible (is it "easy" ?) to apply this patch to the margo PVR buid ? I come from Mediaportal and make my own build without problems but the Xbmc source code is a little hard to understand for me (for instance). For information your patch work very fine with my GT430 on a yamah RX-V3800 but I need to made a choice between TV or good sound....Grrr.

I too, use margro's PVR build and have tried Danielae's/DDDamian's HD build separately and was mightily impressed with the sound improvements and I wish there was a combined version also (see post #1041)! I would be interested in hearing how it would be done. I have no Windows development environment available to me. If (when) the HD audio patch makes its way into the main nightly builds of Eden I presume margro will incorporate it into future PVR builds, though.

I've noticed that I only get around 3 fps with no sound. Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: I've reverted to the standard Eden version. The files play properly now, but the receiver lights up with "multi channel" and I've noticed some of the files, like the speaker check ones, have mixed up surround and surround back channels :|

So, am I alone in this issue? Neither the standard nor this version will play properly.

This is working great for me so far. Stupid question probably but is this for WIndows only? If I wanted to try XBMC Ubuntu I would be stuck with non-hd audio?

Hi Pat - it's Windows only. Not sure why a Linux dev hasn't made some fairly simple mods to the ALSA sink code unless it's just due to the pending AE merge. I can't see it happening on the Ubuntu front anytime soon.

Thanks Again!!!

It would explain the issue. I checked and AE initializes that tag to false, but if it was enabled at any time using AE it will still be enabled after changing to another build, whether this one, master, PVR, etc as the XBMC installer does not overwrite this setting. I'm not sure if AE even needs this option as not many devices accept mp3 without decoding, and the decoder used is one of the best available, but passing through MP3 is disabled by default.
