@meridus
i can play every movie without async or stuttering. from 128kbit stereo up to dts-ma no problems, same with fps.i use no dxva2 but 24 and 23,97 fps is no problem. i set my hd2k to 50hz 1080p to prevent 24hz bug.
24p

@jpsdr - wma is a codec which gets very little love in XBMC, and actually even from M$. We have no plans to do anything more with it - I just don't see it going anywhere as a codec. If you write something for it we would review it, but only if it's non-platform-specific and meets code standards. Frankly I would just convert any wma's you have and forget about it.

Quote:Hi Warstomper - just make sure debugging is enabled and play a single movie that you know works (perhaps with Daniela's patch) and I'll be happy to take a look. We've added quite a bit of debugging code to help us during this initial roll-out, so that's fine to start - if I need more info after reviewing I'll let you know. Cheers.

Hi DDDamian,

Im sorry for my late late reply, but I have been very busy lately. I have a debug log (I hope I did it right..) that can be found here:

http://pastebin.com/NqvefDtb

This is using Daniela's patch(The one linked in her main thread) with WASAPI enabled, where I start the movie Fast Five, which has DTS-HD Master Audio. After starting it, the DTS-HD lights turn on on the reciever screen, and the audio works as expected.

Next up, I used the latest nightly build (27 May)

It resulted in the following log:

http://pastebin.com/1XBJXRf9

Once again made sure WASAPI was enabled, and started the movie Fast Five again. This time, the reciever did not light up it's DTS-HD lights, and there was no audio at all. It also seemed like playback was frozen after about 10-20 seconds.

If you want any more information, or I did not supply to correct information. Please let me know, so I can supply what you need.

Thanks in advance for looking into the issue Smile

Had a look, but sorry - those aren't debug logs - debugging must be enabled. I can see that it failed to initialized, just not the information used to try initialize it.

Please post a debug log and I'll take another look.
