Hi formites,
First things first. Yes, I've spend the last 4 days googling and reinstalling and trying every possible trick I could find to get it going, and, no luck. The sad thing was that this was not a problem with Dharma Beta 4 or even the XBMCFreak versions based on the old beta's. But, yes, upgrading to the release version had broken my HDMI completely. (Don't even start with un-muting channels, I've tried that 4 days ago.)
Ok, so, my equipment:
Asus AT3N7A-I - Intel Atom 330 CPU - 2GB RAM - 32GB SSD
Yamaha RXV3800 Amp
Hitachi Plasma screen
aplay -l
aplay -L
cat /proc/asound/version
cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version
cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
XBMC is setup to HDMI on all three options. I've tried custom options as well, no luck. I've tried the suggestions people had editing the .asoundrc in the home folder, nope, no luck.
The worst part is that the following does work :
aplay -Dhdmi SURROUNDTEST_DD_640.wav (Dolby)
aplay -Dhdmi SURROUNDTEST_011212.wav (DTS)
I can also play MP3 file from XBMC, but any movie that uses AC3 or DTS doesn't work. It has to be something with the HDMI passthrough.
Does anybody have any ideas ... I'm so fedup ... I don't know what to do anymore. My googling skills are also starting to let me down.
Please help ... pritty please ...
