Hello everyone.
I running XBMC with ubunto on the Acer Revo, through the optical sound output:
* in the 'sound preferences' menu, the 'settings for selected device' is set to :
'Digital Stereo (IC958) Output +Analog Stereo input'
* in XBMC the audio output is set to 'Digital' , next option is set to
'Internal Audio Digital Stereo (IEC958)'
The Passthrough output device is (IEC958).
Problem - when I start a movie which has DTS output... Xbmc pops up an error message at the bottom right of the screen reading "failed to initialize audio device",
My Denon receiver doesnt detect the DTS Sound.
I jump out of the movie, and restart the movie for the second time,
the DENON goes click and reads "DTS" And the sound is on!!!!
No matter which movie I play with DTS sound, first time I run it the error pops up..
second time I run it, the sound is back. I would love to post the log file, but I cannot find it in my home directory (if anyone could help), I have debug mode enabled, and XBMC does not crash once.
Does anyone know why this happens? 2 months ago, (before reinstalling ubuntu and xbmc) I never had this problem. First time I ran the movie, sound was on.
anyone have any idea to why this is happening?
Kind regards Dcdemon
