Hello there,
Before posting my config into Linux Success Stories, I have a (hopefully smallish) issue when it comes to my sound playback. I have a onboard sound card with SPDIF out, which is hooked to my DD/DTS receiver.
When I try to play a video with DTS or AC3 sound, it plays about 20 secs and then aborts (goes back to XBMC UI). The sound however is passed correctly to the receiver. Debug log here: http://pastebin.ca/1028777
I also tried with mplayer <file> -ao alsa:device=plughw=0.1 -ac hwdts, which works correctly. Also XviD files seem to play nicely. I also noticed, that with some mkv files, they hang with "buffering" message and don't even start playing (again, fine with mplayer), debug log here: http://pastebin.ca/1028795
I noticed also that the GUI sounds are completely absent. However, XviD movies and MP3s worked now as I wanted to retest when writing this post... "Audio Output Device" as well as "Passthrough Output Device" set to "iec958"
my audio hw:
any help or hints greatly appreciated.
cheers,
-freezy.
