Hi there,
I'm new to XBMC and I'm stuck on an issue which I've searched for and can't find the answer to.
The issue is with playback of DTS encoded videos (mkv container). I have a HDMI output from my Windows PC to my TV. I then have a S/PDIF output on my TV to my Denon DTS Amp (which has no HDMI input so therefore using the S/PDIF passthrough on the TV).
(I know I have an issue with DTS passthrough from the TV to the Amp where it's not supported, but I know that DD/AC3 passthrough works OK using this method in XBMC).
So the issue I'm trying to fix is this. When I play a DTS encoded movie through Media Player Classic, using the ffdshow Audio Encoder with the 'AC3 S/PDIF encode mode' ticked, I am able to listen to the DTS track in DD.
When I try the same DTS movie through XBMC, I only get a stereo input to the amp.
I've tried all the settings in the standard GUI and started to look into modifying the XML's but I don't know where to start.
Anybody have any ideas?
