Hey all,
I know these are more of Ubuntu questions, but I saw a good amount of posts with people that had this mobo 7150/630i chipset and said they have everything working I had some questions for them. It is an excellent choice for a mobo IMO with the onboard GFX and HDMI/Optical Audio port. (Specs in Sig)
Firstly, I am unable to get the HDMI Audio to work. I can get it through the optical and through the digital out (mini) however never able to get sound through the HDMI port. It's enabled in the BIOS. Has anyone got this working?
Secondly, 1080P mkv's, I seem to get glitchy playback when I have the XBMC resolution set to 1080P. They will play fine when I am running XBMC at 720p. Also I can play 720p mkv's at the 1080P resolution without any stutter. Is this just a lack of GFX power? My CPU usage while playing these 1080P vids is less than 50% so it's not that I don't think. Does anyone play these vids without any issues?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I do have it functional, but these things would make it a perfect Media Center.
