I'm on a Zotac ION ITX-U running the latest XBMCBuntu Eden.
Audio settings:
- Coax/Optical
- Boost volume level on downmix - ON
- Dolby Digital (AC3) capable receiver - ON
- DTS capable receiver - ON
Audio output device: Defaults (ALSA)
Passthrough output device: iec958 (ALSA)
I can play SD files with MP3 audio tracks just fine. However, whenever I try to play any video file with a Dolby Digital or DTS audio track, I get the above mentioned error message. This is kinda boring, since many of my ripped movies have these audio tracks.
Help?
EDIT:
I messed around a bit with the settings, and now it works. The receiver has the PCM icon showing now, all the time. Does this mean that the receiver now handles all the encoding of the audio, regardless of format?
