Hello,
i am using Arch Linux and installed the latest git Version from XBMC because i want HD Audio. I have a Asus Nvidia Geforce GT610 an set the Option that my Receiver support DTS-HD/TrueHD. But when i play a Movie with HD Sound i hear the Sound but its cracking/crackling (i dont know the word in english so i used google translate and hope its right ^^). Is there somebody who had the same Problem and solved it?

greets

I´ve no pulseaudio installed. Normal DTS/AC3 are working great but DTSHD/TrueHD doesnt work. (I tried it under windows and it worked there). Here is my Log if it helps: http://pastebin.com/ASvgg5DM

edit: i use the 310.19 Nvidia Driver and Kernel 3.6.8

I tried it with the XBMCBuntu 12 Beta 1 Livecd and there are the same Problems. Is there anything i need too? A asound.conf or something else?

You can try to use one of these: http://www.xbmcfreak.nl/en/ubuntu-12-10-...do-beta-1/

It's the same beta1 with but a newer Ubuntu version and better drivers.

I tried it with the Intel+Nvidia Iso and there i got no sound when i try to play a Movie with DTS-HD Sound. AC3 works fine. Do i need a special Version of Alsa? On my ArchLinux its the Version 1.0.26

I have a Onkyo TX-SR308. I dont think that it has something to do with the amp. There must be a way that it works with linux too. I dont want to switch to Windows ^^

Odin, I think we have the same problem:

Also same video driver 310.19... Getting an idea that, that might be the problem -> unless others can confirm it should work

A number of us use external DACs (optical or USB connection) and used to use a custom audio string with Eden eg. (hw:0,1 - or plughw dependant on model) to force all audio unfettered to the DAC for processing - this gave us nice bit-perfect playback.

It seems that AE of the box wont play 44.1khz material without trying to resample it (badly in some cases) and the audiophile setting in advancedsettings.xml can cause issues with DVD playback with the audio trying to play at 44.1 rather than 48.

All suggestions greatly received!

Im using Openelec and something seems to have happened between Beta1 and Beta2 - I'm getting proper lock on 44.1,48 and 96Khz (16 and 24 bit) on a DACMagic using USB (16 bit only as its an older device) or Optical (everything) without any special settings.

greetings,

am also using Openelec 3.0 beta 2 frodo, and have the same problem.

my DAC locks correctly to 44.1, 96 (16 and 24 Bits) audio FLAC files
but when i play a mkv rip or dvd the signal reported by my dac is 44.1 instead of 48 Khz

i have experimented with advance-settings .xml and it looks like this

<advancedsettings>
<audio>
<resample>0</resample>
<audiophile>1</audiophile>
</audio>
</advancedsettings>

even this has not changed and still my movies play at 44.1 as reported by my dac

when i play movies, i also get crackling and pop noise from speakers on certain scenes.

i am only interested in 2 channel audio,

finally is AE really bit perfect..?

inputs appreciated

thanks

Have you already tried a older nvidia driver? I could try 304.60 or 304.64. I think an older Version than 304.xx will not work with kernel 3.6

Hello AudioEngine devs. I have an issue with clipping of menusound, if you wait 2-3seconds next sound will be clipped 1/10 or so, so you wont hear the "click".
If you move fast the menusound plays like it should.
