Hey Guys,
I wanted to start a new tread in the HTPC hardware forum but its read only and I don't think this is a XBMC problem.
I have my Zotac ION connected directly to my Sony Bravia KDL40Z4100 TV with HDMI. From my TV I connected the optical out to my Denon receiver. My Denon is older and does not have HDMI inputs. When I play any music or any video that is stereo I have no problems with sound on my TV or the Denon. When I play DD or DTS my TV sound is all white noise, but my Denon plays the audio fine. In the past when I used my desktop machine with a Asus EN9500GT with HDMI my TV would play the stereo and DD stuff and there would be no sound on the TV for DTS, my sony downmixes the DD to stereo. Now my TV sound for surround stuff regardless of DD or DTS is white noise but my Denon plays everything great, but the sound goes thru the TV.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I tried the Zotac on 2 different sony TVs KDL40Z4100 and KDL40W3000 with the same problem. I install Windows XP and setup passthru with MPC and AC3filter and it works just like my desktop machine did with XBMC.
This wouldn't be a problem but my wife watches alot of downloaded TV shows that have DD and does not care to listen thru the Denon.
Thanks in advance!
