Hi
Just setting up a Medion Akoya P36888 PC as HTPC
Video Card is NVidia 9300GS so DVI Only - Video is being supplied to TV Direct from DVI output
Motherboard has analog 7.1 output, but no digital output, I am supplying the audio to an Onkyo 606 AV Amp throu the DVD multichannel Analog inputs,
In Windows (VLC) I get 7.1 surround from encoded material, but in XBMX eveything is being downmixed to stereo! and only outouts from front centre speakers,
VLC works fine in Windows so I know my wiring is correct, any ideas on what I need to change to get this working with XBMC
(Without having to buy a new video card with HDMI Video and Digital audio out)
Thanks
