Actually, I've read every single post, some twice, over the past few weeks. My setup consists of:
2x Acer REVO. One hooked up to a TV via HDMI, the other via analogue to a TV.
2x Dell Desktop with ATI4350. One hooked up via HDMI to a receiver, the other via analogue to a TV.

I clearly stated the machine I am setting up is an ATI4350.

hades_2100 Wrote:Thanks. I also mentioned that DTS works fine on the built-in dvdplayer. But not the dsplayer. I don't know what to do with that information... Does that mean it's a problem in my setup, or

I did reinstall the ATI HDMI Audio drivers after XBMC. Made no difference. And I do get audio through HDMI, just not DTS in dsplayer.

>>X<<' Wrote:It pays to read other posts in this thread as the DTS problem seems to be a Nvidia ION problem and I believe you are using an Acer Revo you should be able to solve your problem by installing the Nvidia HDMI Audio driver again

christoofar Wrote:So any idea if this is considered a "known bug" by the developers? I had everything working fine at one point, then it just started outputting white noise with all DTS .mkvs. This with Tiben's build and the regular newer builds (b1,b2,RC1)

christoofar Wrote:Well I've had a suprise here. I decided to try this latest build Tiben made as a last resort. Installed it & then reinstalled HDMI drivers yet again, and lo & behold...it works!
Even DSPlayer is working for me now, big reduction in CPU load, now averaging 5-6% & PQ matches the default, no more washed out contrast. Beautiful!

Many thanks to you Tiben, for your dedication & hard work in your "spare" time.


Still unable to enable Library Mode, is greyed out. Very strange.

tiben20 Wrote:Dvdplayer and Dsplayer are from far away from using the same audio rendering system

tiben20 Wrote:its normal if your using a newer database

hades_2100 Wrote:I realize that. But given that it works with one, I should be able to conclude that the system CAN output DTS, the receiver CAN recognize it, and it works.

So, what can I try to do to get it to work with dsplayer?

tonyt Wrote:Hi, new to the forums, and pretty new to xbmc

First off I'd like to say massive thank you for developing this branch, it's made xbmc a viable htpc for me as my current hardware was unable to play 1080p content. Now the cpu rarely hits 10%. Many thanks.

I do have a couple of problems i'd like to report, but both have been mentioned before, but perhaps the log below can help

My current htpc is xp sp3 with a P4 3ghz processor and I have an ATI HD4670 AGP card

I have the issue with auto switching to 1080p/24, but I'm getting around this by changing the PC refresh rate and then launching xbmc (with auto refresh switching turned off)

The main problem i have is after playing something in dsplayer when i try to play something else, or resume, i get no player come up. I took a debug log (below) and it shows what happens when i play something the 1st time, but when i try to play something else or resume the log only shows the 1st and last lines, everything in between is missing. Other than that the logs are identical

Don't know if this helps, but am happy to do any testing required

Again, many thanks for this

Tony

christoofar Wrote:I seem to have a new problem, XBMC crashing while playing music in party mode. I scanned my media folders, so Library Mode is back in play. But loading songs in Party Mode will start playing the first one, but as it gets to the end , it either goes into pause, from which I can't change songs or get anything to play, or more often it just does hard XBMC crash.

error log:

Here's another log that I stripped all the Library updating text out of for less non-vital info. I started XBMC, when to Music, selected Party Mode, it started playing it started Sgt. Pepper's (reprise) which is about 1:59 long, then XBMC crashes before the song finishes

christoofar Wrote:Also noticed that EVERYTHING coming thru XBMC to my receiver put the surround led on, even two track stereo music. I used to like using DPL II for music, but now I can't. If I engage it now it really messes up the audio quality.
Haven't tested this in the RC1 build, as I am hoping there's a solution, since the DSPlayer is such a great addition to keep.
