So, after a week of building and setting up the htpc; everything is almost up and working except the sound and logitech one harmony remote. Sounds seems to be working ok in music but for videos; mostly blu-ray (mkv files)...there is crackling sound. i have the ASRock H67M-ITX motherboard with intel i3 (the htpc is connected directly to the samsung 59d7000 tv). I been playing with the sound settings but nothing is working, any help (could it be the files; since most are in 5.1 audio?). thanks

I have the exact same mobo. My sound is working great. What drivers are you using for your audio? Mine just says Microsoft 6.1.7601.17514. I am connected via HDMI to my Sony HDTV.

Same here with the Intel Display Audio driver version.
Have you tried different cables? Oh I think I know. I remember reading something about crackling audio on some mobo forums. I changed a setting in the system sound settings let me find that and post it. Okay. Go to your sound properties. Under playback find the TV. Select the TV, then click on properties at the bottom of the window. Go to the advanced tab in the next window. Choose 24 bit, 48000 Hz (Studio Quality).

Nope, still crackling sound while playing movies; music, tv shows are working fine; since those are in SD audio format...movies are mainly in 5.1 audio...any other settings i can mess around with...

Hmm odd. Have you tried hooking up analog speakers and seeing what happens, or switching to a different HDMI cable?

So after playing around a bit, i fixed it. It was in the system Audio setting in xbmc. Disable AC3 receiver and few other settings to make it work...
