No Sound via HDMI - swuerrer - 2012-04-24 Hi Folks, I am writting here because I found no adequadte forum for my issue although I run XBMC on PpenELEC. Hardware: Zotac AD05 My problem is that I do not recieve 5.1 sound via HDMI. If the file is a dedicated 5.1 file my reciever gets only stereo (no dolby), if i switch to 2.0 dolby everything works fine. My reciever supports AC3 and DTS both options are enabled. The Output device is the HDMI device. Any ideas? Thanks RE: No Sound via HDMI - digitalb0y - 2012-04-24 http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Setup_audio_over_HDMI_on_nVidia_GeForce/nForce_controller RE: No Sound via HDMI - swuerrer - 2012-04-24 Thanks a lot but I have a ATI Radeon 6300 card and the second issue is that i can not connect to xmbc via ssh (by using putty) RE: No Sound via HDMI - digitalb0y - 2012-04-24 Well, for your audio issue, the core concepts should be the same. Pulse is broken so it should be disabled, use Alsa and make sure you know your card/device numbers, then add it to a custom output in audio settings. As for your SSH issue I'm not sure where to start you. Have you seen this already? http://openelec.tv/forum/12-guides-tips-and-tricks/887-guide-guide-for-ssh-within-openelec RE: No Sound via HDMI - swuerrer - 2012-04-24 Thanks for the link I have read through it already but it starts with the fact that putty can not connect so every further step is theory. I am already thinking about switching to XBMXubuntu RE: No Sound via HDMI - digitalb0y - 2012-04-24 Yeah, I've never used OpenELEC, is there no way to open a terminal window locally? RE: No Sound via HDMI - swuerrer - 2012-04-24 as far as I see there is no way to do so. but it boots so fast |
