No AC3 with Win7 Acer Revo and HDMI
#1
Hello People,

i buy the Acer Revo for only playing Music and Videos. I tried XBMC to use but have one problem. Any File with AC3 cannot be play. I get the message:

failed to initialize audio device
check your audiosettings

with VLC oder Windows Media Player i can play these files and goes correctly.

In the settings i activate Nvidia HDMI and deactivate Stereo downmixing.

Installed are:

Haali Media Splitter 1.9.42.1
WIN7 RC
XBMC 9.04
15.37 nforce Driver
185.85 ION Driver
VLC 0.9.9
Ultra VNC 1.0.5.6
ALZip
Google Chrome

And nothing else

i read some threads but cannot find any hint:

What is your setup?

How is the computer connected to the Monitor? Does it go thru a receiver?

For example, my setup works flawlessly (AC3 full 5.1 dolby digital) as below:

SONY LAPTOP FW390 -> via HDMI connected to -> DENON AVR2807 receiver --> receiver connected to PLASMA tv via HDMI from DENON

I had to configure the laptop to output thru HDMI as well as XBMC to send raw audio (or something like that)

Please remember, the HDMI audio in many systems are buggy. I did enough research before buying SONY LAPTOP FW390 which has perfect implementation of HDMI

Thank you for writing

My Setup:

Acer Revo-> via HDMI to -> Marantz 4003 -> via HDMI to -> LG PLASMA

i write it above, it works great with vlc and windows media player, i can see 1080p and 720p and ac3 and dts...

i dont thing it is the implementation. i thing it is the codec of XBMC or something else of XBMC.

nauen,

I use the latest IKON SVN build and XBMC works flawlessly. No codec problem at all

None of the files in the debug log include ac3 streams. The file causing the problem appears to be an 8-channel wav file, which is likely not supported by our renderer. Please test something that contains ac3, specify the filename in your post, and re-submit a debug log.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.
