No Fullscreen Playback of dvd iso or physical disc if playback of dvd.iso is started while music is playing -- easily reproducible.
1) Start playback of some music, then while music is playing, <- this is important music must be playing.
2) Start playback of any DVD iso or physical disc (by pressing PLAY DISC on main menu),
Issue..
You will notice that it wont start playback in full-screen.
Playback of other files in other containers are ok.
logs to follow but this is pretty much foolproof on Ubuntu Linux with Gotham builds or Master. This is posted so other users can have a change to experience this and post their feedback.

I'm note sure a debug log will make a difference (but could be wrong), everything plays fine and I get no errors or other problems. Audio is sent to all speakers, except front and back speakers seem to be swapped for some reason. Already checked my Mac Mini is speaker setup is ok and also checked XBMC settings. When I set the audio output to 2.0 the audio is sent to both L+R front speakers but when I set them to 5.1, the front/rear channels are somehow swapped.
Works fine in Frodo with same settings...

Ok, it seems my center speaker and rear left are swapped according to that testfile. I checked my receiver built-in test, and there each speaker gets the right signal, same with bluray dics from my bluray player, so it's definitely a xbmc issue. Also weird is that audio of the right surround speaker is seemingly output to the subwoofer (I don't get the shot sounds, but the rumbling)
So at is now according to that movie:
* front left+right = ok
* center = sent to left rear
* subwoofer = ok
* right rear = sent to subwoofer
* left rear = sent to center

Thx much for testing - I will forward to the Mac Audio devs - it looks like problem with the channel map / speaker mapping.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

I just wonder if this is a problem specifically with me, kinda strange no one reported this (I suppose there are quite a bit of OSx users too no?)

Well, I checked osx-midi-setup and when I click on the speakers, the sound is sent to the correct one. I really don't think this is an osx issue since XBMC Frodo works just fine, it's only the Gotham Beta 3 that does this.

Then ignore my idea and keep on trying ... *sigh* ... i didn't tell you that your speakers are wired wrong - i told you to change the internal representation of its mapping to the one most macs are having be default (yours doesn't for some reason). If its only for a quick test so that we know where we can aim at in the future for implementing a proper channel map detection.
