RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - FernetMenta - 2013-11-18
edrikk, looks like stereo upmix got broken after audio settings refactoring. I will look into this and fix it

The navigation sounds is delayed about 1s on my android device(rk3188).

I am using a version compiled from the github repository yesterday, and AAC 5.1 audio to Dolby Digital conversion is seem to be broken when using optical output. I tried different combinations but the output is stereo only. Debug log - http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=86470

@bijuxavior: To put out 5.1 via spdif AC3 conversion needs to happen as spdif is limited to 2 channels. Could you attach a screenshot of your Audio Settings? Did you enable Ac3 in the passthrough settings?
@ibazzi: I don't know how the Android Sink works in detail. Will ask back to the Audiotrack author.
Thanks for the debug logs.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - baijuxavior - 2013-11-18
I have enabled AC3 and DTS passthrough and when playing AC3/DTS movies my AVR shows the same. However when I play aac files, the AVR uses DSP like Dolby Prologic. I tried an older version from last month and aac was indeed converted to DD.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - fritsch - 2013-11-18
I think I know where to look. Last month AC3 was priorized, which e.g. always played 5.1 LPCM audio as AC3. We fixed this to use (if available) LPCM again, but this chould have killed the 5.1 AC3 path for Optical devices. Thanks for your feedback.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - fritsch - 2013-11-18
Could you please post the relevant part of your Gui Settings? I just reviewed the patch and I think it is correct or a screenshot?

RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - fritsch - 2013-11-18
I think your guisettings.xml still has "Speaker Layout 5.1" set, would be nice if you could verify this. For the future, I would use a more failsafe approach in our patch (if I am proofed right with your guisettings.xml) ..
Code:
else if (((settings.channels <= AE_CH_LAYOUT_2_0 ) || (m_sink.GetDeviceType(m_settings.device) == AE_DEVTYPE_IEC958))&& // no multichannel pcm or iec958
settings.passthrough &&
settings.ac3passthrough &&
!m_streams.empty() &&
(format.m_channelLayout.Count() > 2 || settings.stereoupmix))
{RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - baijuxavior - 2013-11-18
^^ Should I try a clean install or just delete the guisettings.xml file? The 5.1 settings may be from an older installation. I will post the screenshot tomorrow. Thanks.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - fritsch - 2013-11-18
I want to see it with my own eyees first :-) Can you post that file? Or the specific config part?

From what I see the Sync function first detects DTS-HD, but then the stream changes and it falls back to normal DTS. From there it continues. Never seen this on ony of my > 250 Blurays. Where did you buy that movie?
The movies were ripped with an outdated version of dvdfab at this time. I have about 5 to 10 movies which are showing this behaviour. I dont mind about the ones posted the samples...If i would like to watch them i disable "dts-hd capable receiver" and live with just the dts core. But there are a few im worried about like Tron for example..
What i dont understand is, why powerdvd doesnt show this behaviour and keep playing the hdaudio without any problem. There are no hiccups and everthing is in sync..
Pls let me know if u need more samples..
Thx bimme
