Hi,
I have a problem and it's soon driving me mad.
When watching movies with DTS sound, i get dropouts every now and then, they happen very random and last for approx 0,1-0,3sec or so.
This does NOT happen with other audio formats like AC3 etc.
It also doesn't happen when using my ATV2 or Ouya XBMC with the exact same movie(s) and hookup/setup.
My connection is Rasp>LG TV>Yamaha Receiver.
Now, I know this isn't ideal setup, but my receiver don't have HDMI so I need to go thru LG TV that passes on the audio via TOS link.
If i switch off "DTS capable receiver" in XBMC the sound is output like PCM and works fine. Also when sending out DTS passthrough, my LG TV decodes it to 2channel sound in the TV itself it with no dropouts, by my receiver gets dropouts.
Again, if the same setup had not worked flawlessly with my ATV2 or Ouya, I would've blamed the TV/Reciever combo, but it does work fine with the other 2 so I guess it must have something to do with the Raspberry PI.
I've tried the following so far
- 2 different Raspberrys
- all builds/versions I could find inlucding rbej's testbuilds, nightlys, xbian/rasp/openelec
- editing the config.txt with different values for HDMI, f.x hdmi_force_edid_audio=1 etc. (But perhaps not all combinations there is..)
- new power supplies, new HDMI cables
- debug log in xbmc shows nothing when the dropouts happens
- i've read all threads in different forums (there's been a few, but often in those threads both DTS and AC3 gives dropouts)
I really want to use raspberry pi instead of ATV2 since it does 1080p and has some really nice builds
so if anyone can give me any hint on what to do, I would be very grateful.
thank you
