Thanks for the update Gnif. Like someone else said, real life comes first.

Once you are getting back up on the horse so to speak I would be glad to start testing and supplying debugs of AE again since the current build is abit wacky on my AMD HD 5570 with a Harman Kardon AVR receiver when running DTS-HD.

I hope you get the real life issues sorted out in the best possible way.

Thanks for the update and all your hard work gnif!

Would be glad to help with testing....ATI HD6370 (with HDMI passthrough of all hi-def formats) to Denon 3808CI here....Windows 7

It detects all the specs of the receiver just fine. I might go pick up a new video card tomorrow night and give it a shot. It would suck if things just didnt work with the pioneers considering they make some of the best receivers!

I tried the tests using aplay and all i got was static. Might just be because of the video card.

XBMC Is segfaulting when i change some of the audio output settings. I'll throw up the debug log later but not sure how much good it'll do since everyone seems to be on vacation Sad


I picked up a GT520 today. I'm happy to report that TrueHD is bitstreaming correctly but any of the DTSHD-MA videos fail. I'll post my debug log once there is some action going on again and gnif is caught up.

does the dts-hd sample from the nvforums thread play properly? seems you're experiencing the same thing i did with my pioneer receiver even though the card should be working properly.

I couldn't get either one of the sames to work properly. The .asoundrc file they gave produced errors when i tried to their commands and the command i found to do the same thing that the .asoundrc file would have done produced static in PCM. Very Strange!

i'm surprised you were able to get truehd working in xbmc if neither of the samples worked for you.

if you've got an nvidia card on your motherboard that might explain why the .asoundrc file didn't work for you. that assumes you're trying to play via the first card in the system. a second card would have a different id. i personally have my onboard video disabled so the .asoundrc file worked fine. unfortunately dts-hd wouldn't sync up with my receiver regardless of the card.

The on-board video card is ATI but it along with the on-board sound card have both been disabled via the bios. "aplay -l" lists only one device, the new nvidia card.

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

The command i used was:
aplay -D hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0,AES1=0x06 -c8 -fs16_le -r192000 testi.truehd.anssi1.ff.60s.spdif

I'm not sure anything but once things in the AE branch start up again i'll provide all the details needed.

AE compile build problem for atv2, the error in Audio Engine folder….AEFactory.cpp….please, fix it and let's test new engine….


- Dougie085 - 2011-10-16

I was wanting to compile this and test it a bit but I don't see it in the xbmc git-hub so I was curious where the source code was available at?

It's buried in the thread somewhere but i'll save you the searching Wink

Thanks! I skimmed through the thread but guess I missed that page.


- gnif - 2011-10-16

@alexdzn - If you want help, post details, if you don't want to post details, you fix it.

Edit: nevermind


- Dougie085 - 2011-10-16

And nevermind again, just had to link a file.
