thank you.

I was wondering for these builds do you guys need to upgrade to a new iOS build also? I think I'm using iOS 4.2.1 currently

Nope... that version will work fine. Personally I'm on iOS 4.3 (build 8F305) since I'd rather not run into (iOS) bugs that are already fixed.

Are you running a nightly XBMC or the official? (Im guessing official?)

Tethered or untethered jailbreak?

Where is the addons.db file or equivalent in the .9 build? find | grep addons doesn't find it. I believe Ii need to delete this to get tvdb to stop being "broken".

Running the unofficial build from July 6.

Tethered jailbreak? It's been months since iOS 4.3 has been an untethered jailbreak.

Today I updated to iOS 4.3 (build 8F305) and official 10.0-9 build.

Now if I enable AC3 and DTS pass-through, I hear only noise and my receiver receives a 2 channel PCM signal (the movie is 5.1 though).

I had no problems with iOS 4.2.1 (8C154) and an older Version of XBMC (don't know the version number any more).

Is this a 4.3 specific issue?

iOS version shouldn't impact XBMC in any way as long as you have jailbroken your device.

Are you generating thumbnails? As per:

pecinko Wrote:...
Q: Some of my AC3 files stutter or have static noise!
A: AC3 Audio can stutter and pause video. Generating thumbnails is the culprit, go into Settings > Video > File and deselect 'generate thumbnails'. Fix is in mainline, not atv2 branch yet. Also some are experiencing static with this enabled, regardless of Generate Thumbs selected or not.

Yes , I have tried to disable this function - but it didn't change the sound issue.

Meanwhile I found this info in the nightly build thread:

Quote:In the AppleTV menu, just go to Settings>Audio & Video>Audio Output and change it from "Auto" to "16 bit" (thx DN38416)

Done this, now AC3 and DTS work again. Nod

10.0-9: Known issue - Resume from "Now Playing" doesn't work - stream starts from beginning. XBMC does recognize that the movie has already been playing by asking if you want to resume from said point - but still starts from the beginning when selected.
